1Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence,
1Oj, aby si roztrhol nebesia a sostúpil, aby sa pred tvojou tvárou rozplynuly vrchy!
2as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil; to make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence!
2Jako čo oheň zapaľuje raždie, jako vrie voda od ohňa, aby si tak dal poznať svojim protivníkom svoje meno, aby sa národy triasly pred tvojou tvárou,
3When you did awesome things which we didn’t look for, you came down, the mountains quaked at your presence.
3jako keď si činil strašné veci, jakých sme nečakali! Sostúpil si; pred tvojou tvárou rozplynuly sa vrchy.
4For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither has the eye seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.
4A od veku nikto neslýchal, nikto nepočul, oko nevidelo Boha krome teba, ktorý by tak bol činil tomu, kto očakával na neho.
5You meet him who rejoices and works righteousness, those who remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned. We have been in sin for a long time; and shall we be saved?
5Prišiel si vústrety tomu, kto je veselý a činí to, čo je spravedlivé, tým, ktorí pamätali na teba na tvojich cestách. Hľa, ty si sa rozhneval, a preto sme hrešili; sme v tom od veku, a či tedy ešte i tak budeme zachránení?
6For we have all become as one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is as a polluted garment: and we all fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
6Lebo sme všetci jako nečistý, a všetky naše spravedlivosti sú jako ohyzdné rúcho; vädneme všetci jako lístie a padáme, a naše neprávosti nás preč odnášajú ako vietor.
7There is none who calls on your name, who stirs up himself to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
7A nieto nikoho, kto by vzýval tvoje meno a prebudil sa aby sa chopil teba, lebo si ukryl svoju tvár pred nami a dopustil si to, aby sme sa rozplynuli pre svoje neprávosti.
8But now, Yahweh, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.
8Ale teraz, ó, Hospodine, ty si náš Otec; my sme hlinou, a ty si naším tvorcom, a dielom tvojej ruky sme my všetci.
9Don’t be furious, Yahweh, neither remember iniquity forever: see, look, we beg you, we are all your people.
9Nehnevaj sa, Hospodine, až príliš ani nepamätaj navždy na neprávosť! Hľa, pohliadni, prosíme, všetci sme tvojím ľudom.
10Your holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
10Mestá tvojej svätosti sú obrátené na púšť, Sion je púšťou, a Jeruzalem pustinou;
11Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant places are laid waste.
11dom našej svätosti a našej okrasy, v ktorom ťa chválievali naši otcovia, je pohoreniskom, a všetko, čo nám bolo vzácnym, je obrátené v rumy.
12Will you refrain yourself for these things, Yahweh? Will you hold your peace, and afflict us very severely?
12Či pre to pre všetko sa budeš silou zdŕžať ó, Hospodine? Či budeš mlčať a nás trápiť až príliš?
