1In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah: “We have a strong city. God appoints salvation for walls and bulwarks.
1Tisti dan bodo peli to pesem v deželi Judovi: Trdno mesto imamo; zveličanje nam Bog postavlja za obzidje in nasip.
2Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter: the one which keeps faith.
2Odprite vrata, da vnide narod pravični, ki hrani vso zvestobo.
3You will keep whoever’s mind is steadfast in perfect peace, because he trusts in you.
3Njemu, ki je stanoviten v misli, hraniš večni mir, ker upa vate.
4Trust in Yahweh forever; for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting Rock.
4Upajte v GOSPODA vekomaj, kajti v GOSPODU Jehovi je skala vekov.
5For he has brought down those who dwell on high, the lofty city. He lays it low. He lays it low even to the ground. He brings it even to the dust.
5Zakaj on je ponižal stanujoče na visokem, ponižal je kvišku moleči grad; podrl jih je, zvrnil na tla, položil prav v prah.
6The foot shall tread it down; Even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.”
6Tepta jih noga, ubožcev noge, siromakov stopinje.
7The way of the just is uprightness. You who are upright make the path of the righteous level.
7Pot pravičnega je ravna; naravnost ravnaš stezo pravičnemu.
8Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, have we waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
8Da, na potu sodb tvojih, o GOSPOD, smo te čakali; k imenu tvojemu in k spominu tvojemu je bilo hrepenenje duše.
9With my soul have I desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me will I seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
9Iz srca sem te želel po noči in z duhom svojim znotraj sebe sem zgodaj hitel k tebi: zakaj ko zadevajo sodbe tvoje zemljo, se uče pravičnosti prebivalci sveta.
10Let favor be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness. In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully, and will not see Yahweh’s majesty.
10Če se izkaže milost brezbožniku, se ne uči pravičnosti: v deželi pravičnosti ravna krivično in noče videti visokosti GOSPODOVE.
11Yahweh, your hand is lifted up, yet they don’t see; but they will see your zeal for the people, and be disappointed. Yes, fire will consume your adversaries.
11GOSPOD, roka tvoja se je vzdignila, pa ne vidijo. A videli bodo gorečnost tvojo za to ljudstvo, in bodo osramočeni; da, ogenj pokonča nasprotnike tvoje.
12Yahweh, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also worked all our works for us.
12Za nas pa, GOSPOD, pripraviš mir; saj si tudi dovršil vsa dela naša za nas.
13Yahweh our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but by you only will we make mention of your name.
13GOSPOD, Bog naš, zapovedovali so nam drugi gospodje razen tebe; samo s teboj združeni hvalno spominjamo imena tvojega.
14The dead shall not live. The deceased shall not rise. Therefore have you visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish.
14Mrtvi so, ne ožive, mrliči so, ne vstanejo več: zato ker si jih obiskal in pogubil, in pokončal si ves njih spomin.
15You have increased the nation, O Yahweh. You have increased the nation! You are glorified! You have enlarged all the borders of the land.
15Pomnožil si ta narod, o GOSPOD, pomnožil si ta narod, poveličal si sebe; razširil si vse meje dežele.
16Yahweh, in trouble they have visited you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.
16GOSPOD, v stiski so te iskali; molili so ponižno, kadar jih je trla pokora tvoja.
17Like as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs; so we have been before you, Yahweh.
17Kakor se noseča blizu poroda zvija in vpije v bolečinah svojih, tako smo bili pred obličjem tvojim, GOSPOD.
18We have been with child. We have been in pain. We gave birth, it seems, only to wind. We have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
18Noseči smo bili, zvijali smo se, a bilo je, kakor da bi rodili le sapo: rešitve nobene nismo napravili zemlji in niso se porodili prebivalci svetu.
19Your dead shall live. My dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast forth the dead.
19Ožive mrtveci tvoji; mrtva trupla moja vstanejo. Zbudite se in veselo pojte, kateri prebivate v prahu! kajti rosa svetlobe je rosa tvoja, in zemlja izvrže mrtve.
20Come, my people, enter into your rooms, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself for a little moment, until the indignation is past.
20Pojdi, ljudstvo moje, stopi v hrame svoje in zapri si duri za seboj: skrij se za malo časa, dokler ne preide jeza.Zakaj, glej, GOSPOD prihaja iz kraja svojega, kaznovat prebivalce zemlje za njih krivico; in zemlja odkrije kri svojo in ne bo pokrivala več ubitih svojih.
21For, behold, Yahweh comes forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.
21Zakaj, glej, GOSPOD prihaja iz kraja svojega, kaznovat prebivalce zemlje za njih krivico; in zemlja odkrije kri svojo in ne bo pokrivala več ubitih svojih.
