| 1 Zsoltár. Ének a Templomszentelés ünnepére. Dávidtól. | 1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David according to an ecstasy. |
| 2 Magasztallak, Uram, mert fölemeltél engem, és nem engedted, hogy ellenségeim örüljenek fölöttem. | 2 In you, Lord, I have hoped; let me never be confounded. In your justice, deliver me. |
| 3 Hozzád kiáltottam, Uram, én Istenem, és te meggyógyítottál engem. | 3 Incline your ear to me. Hasten to rescue me. Be for me a protector God and a house of refuge, so as to accomplish my salvation. |
| 4 Uram, visszahoztad lelkemet az alvilágból, életben tartottál, hogy ne szálljak a sírba. | 4 For you are my strength and my refuge; and for the sake of your name, you will lead me and nourish me. |
| 5 Zengjetek zsoltárt az Úrnak, ti is az ő szentjei, áldjátok szent emlékezetét! | 5 You will lead me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me. For you are my protector. |
| 6 Mert haragja csak egy pillanat, de élethosszig tart jóakarata. Este a sírás tér be, de reggelre a vidámság. | 6 Into your hands, I commend my spirit. You have redeemed me, O Lord, God of truth. |
| 7 Mikor dúslakodtam, így szóltam: »Nem fogok meginogni sohasem.« | 7 You have hated those who practice emptiness to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord. |
| 8 Mert te, Uram, kegyességedben szilárddá tetted dicsőségemet. De te elfordítottad arcodat tőlem, és én megrendültem. | 8 I will exult and rejoice in your mercy. For you have looked upon my humility; you have saved my soul from needfulness. |
| 9 Ekkor, Uram, hozzád kiáltottam, és Istenemhez könyörögtem. | 9 And you have not enclosed me in the hands of the enemy. You have set my feet in a spacious place. |
| 10 Mi hasznod lenne véremből, ha leszállnék a sírgödörbe? Vajon a por magasztalhat-e téged, és hirdetheti-e hűségedet? | 10 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am troubled. My eye has been disturbed by wrath, along with my soul and my gut. |
| 11 Meghallgatott az Úr és megkönyörült rajtam, az Úr lett az én segítségem. | 11 For my life has fallen into sorrow, and my years into sighing. My virtue has been weakened in poverty, and my bones have been disturbed. |
| 12 Sírásomat öröménekké változtattad, szőrruhámat szétszaggattad, vidámsággal öveztél körül, | 12 I have become a disgrace among all my enemies, and even more so to my neighbors, and a dread to my acquaintances. Those who catch sight of me, flee away from me. |
| 13 hogy énekeljen neked dicsőségem, és sohase hallgasson. Áldalak érte örökké, Uram, én Istenem! | 13 I have become forgotten, like one dead to the heart. I have become like a damaged utensil. |
| 14 For I have heard the harsh criticism of many who linger in the area. While assembled together against me in that place, they deliberated on how to take away my life. |
| 15 But I have hoped in you, O Lord. I said, “You are my God.” |
| 16 My fate is in your hands. Rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from those who are persecuting me. |
| 17 Shine your face upon your servant. Save me in your mercy. |
| 18 Do not let me be confounded, Lord, for I have called upon you. Let the impious be ashamed and be drawn down into Hell. |
| 19 May deceitful lips be silenced: those that speak iniquity against the just, in arrogance and in abusiveness. |
| 20 How great is the multitude of your sweetness, O Lord, which you keep hidden for those who fear you, which you have perfected for those who hope in you, in the sight of the sons of men. |
| 21 You hide them in the concealment of your face, from the disturbance of men. You protect them in your tabernacle, from the contradiction of tongues. |
| 22 Blessed is the Lord. For he has shown his wonderful mercy to me, in a fortified city. |
| 23 But I said in the excess of my mind: “I have been cast away from the glance of your eyes.” And so, you heeded the voice of my prayer, while I was still crying out to you. |
| 24 Love the Lord, all you his saints. For the Lord will require truth, and he will abundantly repay those who act with arrogance. |
| 25 Act manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all you who hope in the Lord. |
