¹Náčelníkovi speváckeho sboru. Žalm Dávidov. Bože mojej chvály, nemlč!

²Lebo ústa bezbožníka a ústa ľsti sa otvorily proti mne; hovoria so mnou lživým jazykom.

²for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.

³Obkľúčili ma slovami nenávisti a bojujú proti mne bez príčiny.

³They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.

⁴Za moju lásku útočia na mňa a ja mám len modlitbu.

⁴In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.

⁵A skladajú na mňa zlé za dobré a odplácajú mi nenávisťou za moju lásku.

⁵They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

⁶Ustanov nad ním bezbožníka, a satan nech mu stojí po jeho pravej ruke.

⁶Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.

⁷Keď sa bude súdiť nech vyjde zpred súdu jako bezbožný a jeho modlitba nech mu je hriechom.

⁷When he is judged, let him come forth guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.

⁸Jeho dní nech je málo; jeho úrad nech vezme iný.

⁸Let his days be few. Let another take his office.

⁹Jeho synovia nech sú sirotami, a jeho žena nech je vdovou!

⁹Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

¹⁰Jeho synovia nech sú tulákmi, nech žobrú a nech hľadajú svoj chlieb zo svojich spustlých bývanísk.

¹⁰Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.

¹¹Nech shabe úžerník všetko, čo má, a to, čo nadobudol úlisnou prácou, nech rozchvátajú cudzí.

¹¹Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.

¹²Nech nemá nikoho, kto by mu preukázal milosť, ani nech nie je toho, kto by sa zmiloval nad jeho sirotami.

¹²Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.

¹³Jeho potomstvo nech vytnú, a v druhom pokolení nech je vyhladené ich meno!

¹³Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.

¹⁴Nech sa pamätá na neprávosť jeho otcov pred Hospodinom, a hriech jeho matere nech nie je vyhladený!

¹⁴Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by Yahweh. Don’t let the sin of his mother be blotted out.

¹⁵Nech sú stále pred Hospodinom, a nech vytne ich pamiatku zo zeme,

¹⁵Let them be before Yahweh continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;

¹⁶pretože nepamätal na to, aby činil milosť, ale prenasledoval človeka, biedneho a chudobného a zbitého srdcom, aby ho zavraždil.

¹⁶because he didn’t remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.

¹⁷A keďže miloval kliatbu, nech tedy prijde na neho; nemal záľuby v požehnaní, nuž nech sa vzdiali od neho.

¹⁷Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He didn’t delight in blessing, and it was far from him.

¹⁸A tak oblečie kliatbu jako svoj odev, a vojde do jeho vnútorností jako voda a jako olej do jeho kostí.

¹⁸He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.

¹⁹Nech mu je ako rúcho, ktorým sa odeje, a jako opasok, ktorý opáše navždy.

¹⁹Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.

²⁰To bude odplatou od Hospodina tých, ktorí útočia na mňa, a tých, ktorí hovoria zlé proti mojej duši.

²⁰This is the reward of my adversaries from Yahweh, of those who speak evil against my soul.

²¹Ale ty, Hospodine, môj Pane, učiň so mnou podľa svojej lásky pre svoje meno; lebo tvoja milosť je dobrá; vytrhni ma!

²¹But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” for your name’s sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;

²²Lebo som biedny a chudobný, a moje srdce je zranené vo mne.

²²for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.

²³Jako tôňa, keď sa nachyľuje, ta idem; striasajú ma jako kobylku.

²³I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.

²⁴Moje kolená klesajú od pôstu, a moje telo schudlo.

²⁴My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.

²⁵A ja som im za potupu; keď ma vidia, kývajú svojou hlavou.

²⁵I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.

²⁶Pomôž mi, Hospodine, môj Bože! Zachráň ma podľa svojej milosti,

²⁶Help me, Yahweh, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;

²⁷aby poznali, že je to tvoja ruka, že si to ty učinil, Hospodine!

²⁷that they may know that this is your hand; that you, Yahweh, have done it.

²⁸Nech oni zlorečia, ale ty dobroreč. Keď povstanú, nech sa hanbia, a tvoj služobník nech sa raduje.

²⁸They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.

²⁹Moji odporcovia nech oblečú stud a nech sa odejú svojou hanbou jako plášťom!

²⁹Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.

³⁰Veľmi budem oslavovať Hospodina svojimi ústy a budem ho chváliť medzi mnohými,

³⁰I will give great thanks to Yahweh with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.

³¹pretože stojí po pravici chudobného, aby ho zachránil od tých, ktorí súdia jeho dušu.

³¹For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.
