Psalmi 101

1 Davidov. Psalam. Da zapjevam o dobroti i pravdi, tebi, Jahve, da zasviram!

A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,

2 Razmatrat ću put savršenstva: kad li ćeš k meni doći? Hodit ću u nedužnosti srca u domu svojemu.

And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

3 Neću stavljati pred oči svoje ništa opako. Mrzim čovjeka koji čini zlo: on neće biti uza me.

I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.

4 Opako će srce biti daleko od mene; o zlu neću da znadem.

The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.

5 Tko kleveće bližnjeg u potaji, toga ću pogubiti. Čovjeka oholih očiju i srca naduta ja ne podnosim.

The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.

6 Pogled upravljam k vjernima na zemlji da sa mnom stanuju. Tko hodi putem nedužnim taj će mi služiti.

My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.

7 Neće prebivati u kući mojoj tko spletke snuje. Tko govori laži, neće opstati pred mojim očima.

He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

8 Svaki ću dan istrebljivati sve zlikovce u zemlji; iskorijenit ću iz grada Jahvina sve koji čine bezakonje.

In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.
