Psalmi 16
1 Miktam. Davidov. Čuvaj me, Bože, jer se tebi utječem.
Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
2 Jahvi rekoh: “Ti si moj gospodar, nema mi blaženstva bez tebe!”
O my soul, you have said to the LORD, You are my Lord: my goodness extends not to you;
3 Za svetima što su u zemlji sav plamtim od čežnje!
But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Gomilaju patnje moje koji slijede bogove tuđe. Ja im ljevanica nalijevat' neću, ime im spominjat' neću usnama.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 Jahve mi je baština i kalež: Ti u ruci držiš moju sudbinu.
The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you maintain my lot.
6 Na divnu zemlju padoše mi konopi, vrlo mi je mila moja baština.
The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a goodly heritage.
7 Blagoslivljam Jahvu koji me svjetuje te me i noću srce opominje.
I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 Jahve mi je svagda pred očima; jer mi je zdesna, neću posrnuti.
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Stog' mi se raduje srce i kliče duša, i tijelo mi spokojno počiva.
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Pokazat ćeš mi stazu u život, puninu radosti pred licem svojim, sebi zdesna blaženstvo vječno.
You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.
