< Psalmi 116 >

1 Ljubim Jahvu jer čuje vapaj molitve moje:
Alleluia. I am well pleased, because the Lord will listen to the voice of my supplication.
2 uho svoje prignu k meni u dan u koji ga zazvah.
Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon him while I live.
3 Užeta smrti sapeše me, stegoše me zamke Podzemlja, snašla me muka i tjeskoba. (Sheol h7585)
The pangs of death compassed me; the dangers of hell found me: I found affliction 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 merciful and righteous; yes, our God has pity.
6 Jahve čuva bezazlene: u nevolji bijah, on me izbavi.
The Lord preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he delivered 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 dealt bountifully with you.
8 On mi život od smrti izbavi, oči moje od suza, noge od pada.
For he has delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 Hodit ću pred licem Jahvinim u zemlji živih.
I shall be well-pleasing before the Lord in the land of the living.
10 Ja vjerujem i kada kažem: “Nesretan sam veoma.”
Alleluia. I believed, therefore I have spoken: but I was greatly afflicted.
11 U smetenosti svojoj rekoh: “Svaki je čovjek lažac!”
And I said in mine amazement, Every man is a liar.
12 Što da uzvratim Jahvi za sve što mi je učinio?
What shall I render to the Lord for all the things wherein he has rewarded me?
13 Uzet ću čašu spasenja i zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
14 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim.
I will pay 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.
O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, and the son of your handmaid: you have burst by bonds asunder.
17 Tebi ću prinijeti žrtve zahvalne, zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of praise, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
18 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim,
I will pay 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 the midst of you, Jerusalem.
