¹{Psalm Davidov; pesem pri posvečevanju hiše njegove.} Poveličeval te bom, GOSPOD, ker si me povzdignil in nisi dal sovražnikom mojim radovati se nad mano.

¹I will extol you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

²GOSPOD, Bog moj, ko sem vpil k tebi, si me ozdravil.

²Yahweh my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me.

³GOSPOD, izpeljal si iz kraja mrtvih dušo mojo, ohranil me živega izmed njih, ki padajo v jamo.

³Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. . You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

⁴Pojte psalme GOSPODU, svetniki njegovi, in slavite spomin svetosti njegove.

⁴Sing praise to Yahweh, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name.

⁵Kajti jeza njegova je le za trenotek, dobrota njegova pa za ves vek; jok se pač zvečer naseli, a zjutraj so spevi veseli.

⁵For his anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning.

⁶Jaz pa sem govoril v sreči svoji: Ne omahnem vekomaj.

⁶As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.”

⁷GOSPOD, po blagovoljnosti svoji si storil, da je trdno stala gora moja; ko si pa skril obličje svoje, sem bil izbegan.

⁷You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

⁸K tebi sem klical, GOSPOD, in GOSPODA sem milo prosil:

⁸I cried to you, Yahweh. To Yahweh I made supplication:

⁹Kaj pridobiš v moji krvi, ko pojdem doli v jamo? ali te bo prah slavil? bode li oznanjal resnico tvojo?

⁹“What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth?

¹⁰Čuj, o GOSPOD, in usmili se me, GOSPOD, bodi mi pomočnik!

¹⁰Hear, Yahweh, and have mercy on me. Yahweh, be my helper.”

¹¹Izpreobrnil si mi jok moj v ples, razpasal si raševnik moj in opasal me z radostjo,da ti prepeva slava moja in ne umolkne. GOSPOD, Bog moj, hvalil te bom vekomaj.

¹¹You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,

¹²da ti prepeva slava moja in ne umolkne. GOSPOD, Bog moj, hvalil te bom vekomaj.

¹²To the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
