Psalmi 116
1 Ljubim Jahvu jer čuje vapaj molitve moje:
I love the LORD, for He has heard my voice— my appeal for mercy.
2 uho svoje prignu k meni u dan u koji ga zazvah.
Because He has inclined His ear to me, I will call on Him as long as I live.
The ropes of death entangled me; the anguish of Sheol overcame me; I was confronted by trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Tada zazvah ime Jahvino: “O Jahve, spasi život moj!”
Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, deliver my soul!”
5 Dobrostiv je Jahve i pravedan, pun sućuti je Bog naš.
The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
6 Jahve čuva bezazlene: u nevolji bijah, on me izbavi.
The LORD preserves the simplehearted; I was helpless, and He saved me.
7 Vrati se, dušo moja, u svoj pokoj, jer Jahve je dobrotvor tvoj.
Return to your rest, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
8 On mi život od smrti izbavi, oči moje od suza, noge od pada.
For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
9 Hodit ću pred licem Jahvinim u zemlji živih.
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10 Ja vjerujem i kada kažem: “Nesretan sam veoma.”
I believed, therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”
11 U smetenosti svojoj rekoh: “Svaki je čovjek lažac!”
In my alarm I said, “All men are liars!”
12 Što da uzvratim Jahvi za sve što mi je učinio?
How can I repay the LORD for all His goodness to me?
13 Uzet ću čašu spasenja i zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will lift the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
14 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim.
I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people.
15 Dragocjena je u očima Jahvinim smrt pobožnika njegovih.
Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.
16 Jahve, tvoj sam sluga, tvoj sluga, sin sluškinje tvoje: ti si razriješio okove moje.
Truly, O LORD, I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have broken my bonds.
17 Tebi ću prinijeti žrtve zahvalne, zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will offer to You a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.
18 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim,
I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people,
19 u predvorjima Doma Jahvina, posred tebe, Jeruzaleme!
in the courts of the LORD’s house, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
