< Psalmi 3 >
1 Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom. Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no help for him in God.” (Selah)
3 Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
I cry to the LORD with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
I laid myself down and slept. I awakened, for the LORD sustains me.
6 Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves 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, LORD! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken 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. (Selah)
