¹Hear my prayer, Yahweh. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.

¹{Psalm Davidov.} O GOSPOD, sliši molitev mojo, ušesa nagni k prošnjam mojim; v zvestobi svoji mi odgovori in v pravičnosti svoji.

²Don’t enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.

²In ne hodi v sodbo s hlapcem svojim, ker pravičen ni pred tabo nihče, ki živi.

³For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

³Kajti sovražnik preganja dušo mojo, tlači na tla življenje moje, dela, da sedim v teminah kakor tisti, ki so mrtvi za vselej.

⁴Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.

⁴In duh moj v meni omaguje, srce mi je otrpnilo v notranjščini moji.

⁵I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.

⁵Spominjam se dni nekdanjih, premišljujem vse delo tvoje, dejanje tvojih rok preudarjam.

⁶I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.

⁶Roke svoje razprostiram proti tebi, duša moja kakor zemlja razsušena hrepeni po tebi. (Sela.)

⁷Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don’t hide your face from me, so that I don’t become like those who go down into the pit.

⁷Hitro mi odgovóri, GOSPOD! duh moj hira; ne skrivaj mi obličja svojega, da ne postanem podoben njim, ki se pogrezajo v jamo.

⁸Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

⁸Daj, da slišim zgodaj milost tvojo, ker nate stavim upanje; naznani mi pot, po kateri naj hodim, zakaj k tebi povzdigujem dušo svojo.

⁹Deliver me, Yahweh, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me.

⁹Otmi me sovražnikov mojih, GOSPOD! pri tebi sem skrit.

¹⁰Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

¹⁰Uči me delati po volji tvoji, ker ti si moj Bog, z dobrim duhom svojim me spremljaj po ravni zemlji.

¹¹Revive me, Yahweh, for your name’s sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

¹¹Zavoljo imena svojega, GOSPOD, me ohrani živega, v pravičnosti svoji izpelji iz stiske dušo mojo.In zavoljo milosti svoje iztrebi sovražnike moje, pokončaj vse, ki stiskajo dušo mojo, ker jaz sem hlapec tvoj.

¹²In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.

¹²In zavoljo milosti svoje iztrebi sovražnike moje, pokončaj vse, ki stiskajo dušo mojo, ker jaz sem hlapec tvoj.
