¹O GOSPOD, ti si moj Bog; poviševal te bom, poveličeval ime tvoje; kajti storil si čuda, sklepe od starodavna, zvestobo in resnico.

¹Yahweh, you are my God. I will exalt you! I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago, in complete faithfulness and truth.

²Zakaj naredil si kup kamenja iz mesta, iz trdnega gradu razvalino, tujcev palačo si podrl, da ne bodi več mesto, na veke se ne sezida.

²For you have made a city into a heap, a fortified city into a ruin, a palace of strangers to be no city. It will never be built.

³Zato te bo slavilo mogočno ljudstvo, mesta silovitih narodov te bodo častila.

³Therefore a strong people will glorify you. A city of awesome nations will fear you.

⁴Kajti bil si grad siromaku, grad potrebnemu, ko je bil v stiski, zavetje pred nevihto, senca pred vročino, ko je bilo srdito pihanje silovitnikov podobno nalivu, ki podira zid.

⁴For you have been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the blast of the dreaded ones is like a storm against the wall.

⁵Kakor vročina na suhem kraju skrči vse, tako si ukrotil tujcev ropotanje, kakor oblakova senca uteši vročino, si zadušil zmagovalno petje silovitnikov.

⁵As the heat in a dry place will you bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the dreaded ones will be brought low.

⁶In GOSPOD nad vojskami napravi vsem ljudstvom na tej gori gostovanje z mastnimi jedili, gostovanje s čistim vinom, pojedino s tolstimi pitanci, z vinom, očiščenim droži.

⁶In this mountain, Yahweh of Armies will make all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of choice wines, of fat things full of marrow, of well refined choice wines.

⁷In na tej gori uniči tisto zagrinjalo, ki zagrinja vsa ljudstva, in tisti zastor, ki je razprostrt čez vse narode.

⁷He will destroy in this mountain the surface of the covering that covers all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.

⁸Smrt bo požrta za vekomaj; in Gospod, Jehova, obriše solze z obličij vseh in ljudstva svojega sramoto odpravi z vse zemlje. Kajti govoril je GOSPOD.

⁸He has swallowed up death forever! The Lord Yahweh will wipe away tears from off all faces. He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth, for Yahweh has spoken it.

⁹In poreko tisti dan: Glej, Bog naš je ta! čakali smo ga, da nas reši; ta je GOSPOD, ki smo ga čakali! Poskakovali bomo in se radovali zveličanja njegovega!

⁹It shall be said in that day, “Behold, this is our God! We have waited for him, and he will save us! This is Yahweh! We have waited for him. We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation!”

¹⁰Zakaj na tej gori bo počivala roka GOSPODOVA; in Moab bo poteptan na mestu svojem, kakor se tepta slama v gnojnici.

¹⁰For in this mountain the hand of Yahweh will rest. Moab will be trodden down in his place, even like straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill.

¹¹In razpne roke svoje v deželi svoji, kakor jih razpenja plavač, da bi plaval; On pa poniža prevzetnost njegovo, čeprav je tako umetnih rok.In trdnjave tvojih trdnih, visokih zidov zvrne, podere in zruši na tla, prav v prah.

¹¹He will spread out his hands in its midst, like one who swims spreads out hands to swim, but his pride will be humbled together with the craft of his hands.

¹²In trdnjave tvojih trdnih, visokih zidov zvrne, podere in zruši na tla, prav v prah.

¹²He has brought the high fortress of your walls down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.
