Psalmi 101

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

A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: to thee, O LORD, will I sing.

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

I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

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

I will set no wicked thing before my eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

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

A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

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

Whoever secretly slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart I will not endure.

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

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

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

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

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

I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all who practise wickedness from the city of the LORD.
