¹In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Let me never be disappointed. Deliver me in your righteousness.

¹{Načelniku godbe. Psalm Davidov.} Pri tebi, GOSPOD, iščem zavetja; naj ne bodem osramočen vekomaj; po pravičnosti svoji me osvobodi.

²Bow down your ear to me. Deliver me speedily. Be to me a strong rock, a house of defense to save me.

²Nagni k meni uho svoje, hitro me otmi; skala pribežališča mi bodi, trden grad, da se rešim.

³For you are my rock and my fortress, therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me.

³Kajti skala moja si in trdnjava moja, torej zavoljo imena svojega me vodi in me spremljaj.

⁴Pluck me out of the net that they have laid secretly for me, for you are my stronghold.

⁴Izpelji me iz mreže, katero so skrili zoper mene, saj ti si obrana moja.

⁵Into your hand I commend my spirit. You redeem me, Yahweh, God of truth.

⁵V roko tvojo izročam duha svojega. Odrešil si me, o GOSPOD, resnice Bog mogočni.

⁶I hate those who regard lying vanities, but I trust in Yahweh.

⁶Sovražim nje, ki časté ničemurnosti prazne, jaz pa upam v GOSPODA.

⁷I will be glad and rejoice in your loving kindness, for you have seen my affliction. You have known my soul in adversities.

⁷Radoval se bom in veselil usmiljenja tvojega, ker si se ozrl na siromaštvo moje, spoznal duše moje stiske;

⁸You have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place.

⁸in nisi me izdal sovražniku v roko, a v prostoren kraj si postavil noge moje.

⁹Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am in distress. My eye, my soul, and my body waste away with grief.

⁹Usmili se me, GOSPOD, ker v stiski sem, od žalovanja hira oko moje, duša moja in telo moje:

¹⁰For my life is spent with sorrow, my years with sighing. My strength fails because of my iniquity. My bones are wasted away.

¹⁰Kajti v žalosti je minilo življenje moje in leta moja v zdihovanju; vsled moje krivice hira krepkost moja in kosti moje ginejo.

¹¹Because of all my adversaries I have become utterly contemptible to my neighbors, A fear to my acquaintances. Those who saw me on the street fled from me.

¹¹Zavoljo vseh sovražnikov svojih sem prišel v zasmeh, da, celo sosedom svojim, strah pa sem znancem svojim; ko me zagledajo zunaj, beže od mene.

¹²I am forgotten from their hearts like a dead man. I am like broken pottery.

¹²V pozabljenje me zagreba srce kakor mrtvega, postal sem kakor orodje podrto.

¹³For I have heard the slander of many, terror on every side, while they conspire together against me, they plot to take away my life.

¹³Kajti zasramovanje čujem od mnogih, strašenje od vseh strani; posvetujoč se skupaj zoper mene, mislijo, kako bi prestregli dušo mojo.

¹⁴But I trust in you, Yahweh. I said, “You are my God.”

¹⁴Jaz pa upam v tebe, GOSPOD, govorim: Bog moj si ti.

¹⁵My times are in your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.

¹⁵V rokah tvojih so časi moji; otmi me iz rok sovražnikov mojih in preganjalcev mojih.

¹⁶Make your face to shine on your servant. Save me in your loving kindness.

¹⁶Daj, da sveti obličje tvoje nad tvojim hlapcem, reši me po milosti svoji.

¹⁷Let me not be disappointed, Yahweh, for I have called on you. Let the wicked be disappointed. Let them be silent in Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. .

¹⁷GOSPOD, naj ne pridem v sramoto, ker tebe kličem; osramočeni naj bodo brezbožni in molče naj gredo v pekel.

¹⁸Let the lying lips be mute, which speak against the righteous insolently, with pride and contempt.

¹⁸Onemé naj ustne lažnive, ki govoré zoper pravičnega trdo, z napuhom in zaničevanjem.

¹⁹Oh how great is your goodness, which you have laid up for those who fear you, which you have worked for those who take refuge in you, before the sons of men!

¹⁹O, kako obila je dobrota tvoja, ki jo hraniš njim, kateri se te bojé, in jo izkazuješ njim, kateri pribegajo k tebi, vpričo otrok človeških.

²⁰In the shelter of your presence you will hide them from the plotting of man. You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues.

²⁰Skrivaš jih v skrivališču obličja svojega pred zarotami ljudi, varuješ jih v koči svoji prepira jezikov.

²¹Praise be to Yahweh, for he has shown me his marvelous loving kindness in a strong city.

²¹Hvaljen bodi GOSPOD, ker mi je izkazal čudovito milost svojo v utrjenem mestu.

²²As for me, I said in my haste, “I am cut off from before your eyes.” Nevertheless you heard the voice of my petitions when I cried to you.

²²Jaz sem bil sicer rekel v malodušnosti svoji: Iztrebljen sem izpred oči tvojih. Vendar si slišal molitev mojih glas, ko sem k tebi vpil.

²³Oh love Yahweh, all you his saints! Yahweh preserves the faithful, and fully recompenses him who behaves arrogantly.

²³Ljubite GOSPODA, vsi svetniki njegovi: GOSPOD hrani zvestobo in povrača preobilo njemu, ki ravna ošabno.Močni bodite in naj se vam ohrabri srce, vi vsi, ki čakate GOSPODA.

²⁴Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who hope in Yahweh.

²⁴Močni bodite in naj se vam ohrabri srce, vi vsi, ki čakate GOSPODA.
