< Psalmi 30 >
1 Psalam. Pjesma za posvećenje Doma. Davidov. Veličam te, Jahve, jer si me izbavio i nisi dao da se raduju nada mnom dušmani.
A psalm of David. A psalm for the dedication of the Temple. I want to tell everyone how good you are, Lord, for you saved me, and you didn't let my enemies triumph over me.
2 Jahve, Bože moj, zazvah te, i ti si me ozdravio;
Lord, my God, I called out to you for help, and you have healed me.
3 Jahve, izveo si mi dušu iz Podzemlja, na rubu groba ti si me oživio. (Sheol )
Lord, you rescued me from the grave, you brought me back to life, saving me from going down into the pit of death. (Sheol )
4 Pjevajte Jahvi, vjernici njegovi, zahvaljujte svetom imenu njegovu!
You who trust the Lord, sing praises to him, and be thankful for his holy character!
5 Jer samo za tren traje srdžba njegova, a čitav život dobrota njegova. Večer donese suze, a jutro klicanje.
For his anger only lasts a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime. You may spend the night in tears, but happiness comes with the morning.
6 U svojoj sreći rekoh: “Neću se pokolebati nikada!”
When things were going well, I said, “Nothing will ever shake me!”
7 Dobrotom si me, o Jahve, na goru nade postavio, ali čim lice sakriješ, sav se uplašim.
Lord, when you showed me your favor I stood as strong as a mountain; when you turned away from me I was terrified.
8 Tada, Jahve, zavapih k tebi i zazvah milosrđe Boga svojega:
I called out to you for help, Lord. I asked the Lord for grace, saying,
9 “Kakva je korist od krvi moje, kakva korist da u grob siđem? Zar će te prašina slaviti, zar će naviještati vjernost tvoju?”
What would you gain if I die, if I go down into the pit of death? Would my dust praise you? Would it tell of your trustworthiness?
10 Slušaj, o Jahve, i smiluj se meni; Jahve, budi mi na pomoć!
Please listen to me, Lord, and be gracious to me! Lord, you are the one who helps me.
11 Okrenuo si moj plač u igranje, skinuo kostrijet s mene i opasao me radošću.
You have turned my weeping into dancing. You have taken off my clothes of sackcloth and dressed me in happiness,
12 Zato ti pjeva duša moja i neće zamuknuti: Jahve, Bože moj, dovijeka ću te hvaliti!
so I can sing praises to you and not keep quiet. Lord my God, I will thank you forever!
