Psalmi 16
1 Miktam. Davidov. Čuvaj me, Bože, jer se tebi utječem.
A MIKTAM OF DAVID. Preserve me, O God, for I trusted in You.
2 Jahvi rekoh: “Ti si moj gospodar, nema mi blaženstva bez tebe!”
You have said to YHWH, “You [are] my Lord”; My goodness [is] not above You;
3 Za svetima što su u zemlji sav plamtim od čežnje!
For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the honorable, all my delight [is] in them.
4 Gomilaju patnje moje koji slijede bogove tuđe. Ja im ljevanica nalijevat' neću, ime im spominjat' neću usnama.
Their griefs are multiplied, [who] have hurried backward; I do not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
5 Jahve mi je baština i kalež: Ti u ruci držiš moju sudbinu.
YHWH [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, You uphold my lot.
6 Na divnu zemlju padoše mi konopi, vrlo mi je mila moja baština.
Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Indeed, a beautiful inheritance [is] for me.
7 Blagoslivljam Jahvu koji me svjetuje te me i noću srce opominje.
I bless YHWH who has counseled me; Also [in] the nights my reins instruct me.
8 Jahve mi je svagda pred očima; jer mi je zdesna, neću posrnuti.
I placed YHWH before me continually, Because [He is] at my right hand I am not moved.
9 Stog' mi se raduje srce i kliče duša, i tijelo mi spokojno počiva.
Therefore my heart has been glad, And my glory rejoices, Also my flesh dwells confidently:
For You do not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor give 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 cause me to know the path of life; In Your presence [is] fullness of joys, Pleasant things [are] by Your right hand forever!
