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.” How many, O LORD, are mine enemies! How many are they who rise up against me!
2 Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
How many are they who say of me, “There is no help for him with God”! (Pause)
3 Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
But thou, O LORD! art my shield, My glory, and the lifter-up of my head.
4 Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
I call upon the LORD with my voice, And he heareth me from his holy hill. (Pause)
5 Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
I lay me down and sleep; I awake, for the LORD sustaineth me.
6 Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
I will not fear the ten thousands of people Who on every side set themselves against me.
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! For thou smitest the cheek of all my enemies; Thou breakest the teeth of the wicked.
8 U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
Deliverance cometh from the LORD: May thy blessing be with thy people! (Pause)
