¹{Načelniku godbe; kakor ‚Košuta jutranje zarje‘. Psalm Davidov.} Bog moj, Bog moj, zakaj si me zapustil? Daleč si od rešitve moje, od stoka mojega besed.

¹My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

²O Bog moj, kličem po dnevi, a ne odgovarjaš, tudi po noči, in ni mi pokoja.

²My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent.

³Ti si vendar svet, ki stoluješ nad slavospevi Izraela.

³But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.

⁴V tebe so upali očetje naši, upali so, in osvobodil si jih.

⁴Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.

⁵K tebi so vpili, in oteti so bili, v tebe so upali, in niso bili osramočeni.

⁵They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you, and were not disappointed.

⁶Jaz pa sem črv in ne mož, poroga ljudem in zaničevan od ljudstva.

⁶But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised by the people.

⁷Vsi, ki me vidijo, me zasmehujejo, režé se in z glavo majó:

⁷All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying,

⁸Zanašal se je na GOSPODA! Ta naj ga reši, otme ga naj, ker ima veselje nad njim!

⁸“He trusts in Yahweh; let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him.”

⁹Saj ti si, ki si me potegnil iz materinega telesa, vdahnil si mi upanje pri prsih matere moje.

⁹But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust at my mother’s breasts.

¹⁰Nate sem oprt od rojstva, od telesa matere moje si Bog moj mogočni ti.

¹⁰I was thrown on you from my mother’s womb. You are my God since my mother bore me.

¹¹Ne bivaj daleč od mene, ker je blizu stiska, ker ni pomočnika.

¹¹Don’t be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is none to help.

¹²Obsuli so me junci mnogi, krepki junci basánski so me obstopili.

¹²Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.

¹³Žrelo svoje odpirajo zoper mene kakor lev zgrabljiv in rjoveč.

¹³They open their mouths wide against me, lions tearing prey and roaring.

¹⁴Kakor voda se razlivam in vse kosti moje se razklepajo; srce moje je podobno vosku, taja se v osrčju mojem.

¹⁴I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax; it is melted within me.

¹⁵Moč moja je usehnila, da je kakor čepinja, in jezik moj se prijemlje nébesa mojega, in v prah smrti si me položil.

¹⁵My strength is dried up like a potsherd. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You have brought me into the dust of death.

¹⁶Kajti obdali so me psi, hudobnikov krdelo me je obkrožilo, prebodli so moje roke in noge moje.

¹⁶For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet. So Dead Sea Scrolls. Masoretic Text reads, “Like a lion, they pin my hands and feet.”

¹⁷Seštel bi lahko vse svoje kosti; oni pa gledajo, všečno se ozirajo v me.

¹⁷I can count all of my bones. They look and stare at me.

¹⁸Oblačila moja delé med seboj in za suknjo mojo mečejo kocko.

¹⁸They divide my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.

¹⁹Ti pa, GOSPOD, ne bivaj daleč, moč moja, hiti mi na pomoč!

¹⁹But don’t be far off, Yahweh. You are my help: hurry to help me.

²⁰Otmi meču dušo mojo, iz moči psa edino mojo.

²⁰Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of the dog.

²¹Reši me iz žrela levovega! Da, izpred rogovja divjih bivolov si me uslišal.

²¹Save me from the lion’s mouth! Yes, from the horns of the wild oxen, you have answered me.

²²Oznanjati hočem ime tvoje bratom svojim, sredi zbora te bom hvalil:

²²I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the assembly, I will praise you.

²³Vi, ki se bojite GOSPODA, hvalite ga; vse seme Jakobovo, slavite ga, in boj se ga vse seme Izraelovo!

²³You who fear Yahweh, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!

²⁴Ker ni zaničeval in ni mrzel trpljenja trpinovega, tudi ni skril obličja svojega pred njim; temuč ko je vpil do njega, ga je uslišal.

²⁴For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

²⁵Od tebe izvira hvalospev moj v zboru velikem; obljube svoje bom opravljal vpričo njih, ki se ga boje.

²⁵Of you comes my praise in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

²⁶Jedli bodo krotki in se nasitili, hvalili bodo GOSPODA, kateri ga iščejo; živi naj srce vaše vekomaj!

²⁶The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise Yahweh who seek after him. Let your hearts live forever.

²⁷Spomnijo se in izpreobrnejo se h GOSPODU vsi kraji zemlje, in klanjale se bodo pred teboj vse družine poganskih narodov.

²⁷All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to Yahweh. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you.

²⁸Kajti GOSPODOVO je kraljestvo in on vlada nad narodi.

²⁸For the kingdom is Yahweh’s. He is the ruler over the nations.

²⁹Jedli bodo in priklanjali se vsi zemlje bogatini; pred njim bodo padali vsi, ki gredo v prah in ki ne morejo ohraniti duše svoje v življenju.

²⁹All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive.

³⁰Potomstvo mu bo služilo; pripovedovali bodo o Gospodu prihodnjemu rodu.Pridejo in oznanjali bodo pravičnost njegovo ljudstvu, ki se porodi, da je to izvršil.

³⁰Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord.

³¹Pridejo in oznanjali bodo pravičnost njegovo ljudstvu, ki se porodi, da je to izvršil.

³¹They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it.
