Psalmi 116
1 Ljubim Jahvu jer čuje vapaj molitve moje:
I love that the LORD should hear my voice and my supplications.
2 uho svoje prignu k meni u dan u koji ga zazvah.
Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him all my days.
The cords of death compassed me, and the straits of the nether-world got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Tada zazvah ime Jahvino: “O Jahve, spasi život moj!”
But I called upon the name of the LORD: 'I beseech thee, O LORD, deliver my soul.'
5 Dobrostiv je Jahve i pravedan, pun sućuti je Bog naš.
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is compassionate.
6 Jahve čuva bezazlene: u nevolji bijah, on me izbavi.
The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Vrati se, dušo moja, u svoj pokoj, jer Jahve je dobrotvor tvoj.
Return, O my soul, unto Thy rest; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
8 On mi život od smrti izbavi, oči moje od suza, noge od pada.
For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling.
9 Hodit ću pred licem Jahvinim u zemlji živih.
I shall walk before the LORD in the lands of the living.
10 Ja vjerujem i kada kažem: “Nesretan sam veoma.”
I trusted even when I spoke: 'I am greatly afflicted.'
11 U smetenosti svojoj rekoh: “Svaki je čovjek lažac!”
I said in my haste: 'All men are liars.'
12 Što da uzvratim Jahvi za sve što mi je učinio?
How can I repay unto the LORD all His bountiful dealings toward me?
13 Uzet ću čašu spasenja i zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will lift up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
14 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim.
My vows will I pay unto the LORD, yea, 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.
I beseech Thee, O LORD, for I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bands.
17 Tebi ću prinijeti žrtve zahvalne, zazvat ću ime Jahvino.
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
18 Izvršit ću Jahvi zavjete svoje pred svim pukom njegovim,
I will pay my vows unto the LORD, yea, 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 thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
