< Psalmi 3 >
1 Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom. Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me!
2 Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.”
3 Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head.
4 Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain.
5 Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.
6 Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side.
7 Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
8 U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people.
