¹Listen to my prayer, God. Don’t hide yourself from my supplication.

¹Náčelníkovi speváckeho sboru na neginót. Vyučujúci žalm Dávidov.

²Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan,

²Počuj, ó, Bože, moju modlitbu a neskrývaj sa pred mojou pokornou prosbou.

³Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.

³Pozoruj na mňa a ohlás sa mi, lebo chodím sem-ta vo svojom úpení a vzdychám

⁴My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.

⁴pre krik nepriateľa, pre útlak bezbožníka, pretože ma zahrnujú neprávosťou a vo vzteku útočia na mňa.

⁵Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.

⁵Moje srdce sa chveje vo mne, a strachy smrti pripadly na mňa;

⁶I said, “Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then I would fly away, and be at rest.

⁶Bázeň prišla na mňa a taký strach, že sa trasiem, a hrôza ma pokryla.

⁷Behold, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness.” Selah.

⁷A povedal som: Ó, keby som mal krýdla jako holubica! Zaletel by som ďaleko a býval by som na pokoji.

⁸Hľa, ďaleko by som ušiel a bol by som na pustine. Sélah.

⁹Confuse them, Lord, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.

⁹Ponáhľal by som sa utiecť pred víchrom, pred búrkou.

¹⁰Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.

¹⁰Zahub, ó, Pane, zmiatni ich jazyk, lebo som videl násilie a rozbroj v meste.

¹¹Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies don’t depart from her streets.

¹¹Vodne i vnoci chodia okolo neho na jeho múroch, a vnútri v ňom je neprávosť a trápenie.

¹²For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hidden myself from him.

¹²Zkaza je v ňom, a útisk a lesť neustupuje z jeho ulice.

¹³But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.

¹³Lebo ma nepotupuje nejaký nepriateľ, lebo to by som zniesol, ani sa nepozdvihol proti mne niektorý môj nenávistník, lebo by som sa bol skryl pred ním,

¹⁴We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God’s house with company.

¹⁴ale ty, biedny človeče, rovný mne samému, môj druh a môj známy,

¹⁵Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. . For wickedness is in their dwelling, in their midst.

¹⁵s ktorým sme sa mile spolu radievali, do domu Božieho sme chodievali v rušnom zástupe.

¹⁶As for me, I will call on God. Yahweh will save me.

¹⁶Nech uderí na nich smrť, čo sa nenazdajú, aby živí sostúpili do pekla, pretože je všelijaká nešľachetnosť v ich príbytku, v ich srdci.

¹⁷Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.

¹⁷Ale ja volám na Boha, a Hospodin ma zachráni.

¹⁸He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.

¹⁸Večer i ráno i na poludnie sa budem úpenlivo modliť a pokorne a nástojne volať, a vyslyší môj hlas.

¹⁹God, who is enthroned forever, will hear, and answer them. Selah. They never change, who don’t fear God.

¹⁹Vykúpi moju dušu, aby bola v pokoji, a zachráni ju pred útokom, namiereným proti mne, lebo vo väčšine sú so mnou.

²⁰He raises his hands against his friends. He has violated his covenant.

²⁰Počuje silný Bôh a poníži ich, ten, ktorý tróni od pradávna, sélah, pretože niet u nich zmeny, a neboja sa Boha.

²¹His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.

²¹Vystrel svoje ruky na tých, ktorí s ním žili v pokoji; zrušil svoju smluvu.

²²Cast your burden on Yahweh, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.

²²Hladká bola smotana jeho úst, a jeho srdce bolo hotové k útoku; slová boly jemnejšie nad olej, a v skutku boly jako vytasené meče.

²³But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.

²³Uvrhni na Hospodina svoje bremä, a on ťa bude opatrovať. Nedopustí na veky, aby sa pohnul spravedlivý.

²⁴Ale ty, Bože, spôsobíš to, aby sostúpili do jamy zkazy, krvaví ľudia a ľstiví, ktorí nedožijú polovice svojich dní; ale ja sa budem nadejať na teba.
