< Psalmi 141 >
1 Psalam. Davidov. Prizivljem te, Jahve, k meni pohitaj! Slušaj glas moj kojim tebi vapijem!
A Psalme of David. O Lord, I call vpon thee: haste thee vnto me: heare my voyce, when I cry vnto thee.
2 Nek' mi se uzdigne molitva kao kad pred lice tvoje, podizanje mojih ruku nek' bude k'o prinos večernji!
Let my prayer be directed in thy sight as incense, and the lifting vp of mine hands as an euening sacrifice.
3 Na usta mi, Jahve, stražu postavi i stražare na vrata usana mojih!
Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth, and keepe the doore of my lips.
4 Ne daj da mi se srce zlu prikloni, da bezbožno počinim djela opaka; i u društvu zlotvora da ne blagujem poslastica njihovih!
Incline not mine heart to euill, that I should commit wicked workes with men that worke iniquitie: and let me not eate of their delicates.
5 Nek' me samo udari pravednik, ljubav je što me kara, al' ulje grešničko neće mi glavu pomazat'; zloći njihovoj oprijet ću se uvijek svojom molitvom.
Let the righteous smite me: for that is a benefite: and let him reprooue me, and it shalbe a precious oyle, that shall not breake mine head: for within a while I shall euen pray in their miseries.
6 Kad strovale niz hridinu suce njihove, razumjet će kako blage bjehu riječi moje.
When their iudges shall be cast downe in stonie places, they shall heare my wordes, for they are sweete.
7 Kao kad orač ore i para zemlju, tako će im se na rubu Podzemlja kosti rasuti. (Sheol )
Our bones lye scattered at the graues mouth, as he that heweth wood or diggeth in the earth. (Sheol )
8 U te su, Jahve, uprte oči moje, k tebi se utječem, ne daj da mi duša propadne!
But mine eyes looke vnto thee, O Lord God: in thee is my trust: leaue not my soule destitute.
9 Čuvaj me od stupice koju postaviše meni, od zamki zločinaca!
Keepe me from the snare, which they haue layde for me, and from the grennes of the workers of iniquitie.
10 Nek' u vlastite zamke upadnu zlotvori, a ja neka im umaknem!
Let the wicked fall into his nettes together, whiles I escape.
