Psalmi 32
1 Davidov. Poučna pjesma. Blažen onaj kome je grijeh otpušten, kome je zločin pokriven!
[A Psalm] of instruction by David. Blessed [are they] whose transgressions are forgiven, and who sins are covered.
2 Blago čovjeku kome Jahve ne ubraja krivnju i u čijemu duhu nema prijevare!
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin, and whose mouth there is no guile.
3 Prešutjet' sam htio, al' kosti mi klonuše od neprestana jecanja.
Because I kept silence, my bones waxed old, from my crying all the day.
4 Danju i noću ruka me tvoja tištala, snaga mi se trošila k'o za ljetnih žega.
For day and night your hand was heavy upon me: I became thoroughly miserable while a thorn was fastened in [me]. (Pause)
5 Tad grijeh svoj tebi priznah i krivnju svoju više ne skrivah. Rekoh: “Priznat ću Jahvi prijestup svoj”, i ti si mi krivnju grijeha oprostio.
I acknowledged my sin, and hid not mine iniquity: I said, I will confess mine iniquity to the Lord against myself; and you forgave the ungodliness of my heart. (Pause)
6 Zato nek' ti se moli pobožnik svaki u času nevolje. Kad bujice silne navale, njega neće stići.
Therefore shall every holy one pray to you in a fit time: only in the deluge of many waters they shall not come near to him.
7 Utočište ti si moje, od tjeskobe ti ćeš me sačuvat', odjenut' me radošću spasenja.
You are my refuge from the affliction that encompasses me; my joy, to deliver me from them that have compassed me. (Pause)
8 Učit ću te, put ti kazat' kojim ti je ići, svjetovat ću te, oko će moje bdjeti nad tobom.
I will instruct you and guide you in this way wherein you shall go: I will fix mine eyes upon you.
9 Ne budite kao konj ili mazga bez razuma: divljinu im krotiš vođicama i uzdom, inače im se ne primiči!
Be you not as horse and mule, which have no understanding; [but you must] constrain their jaws with bit and curb, lest they should come near to you.
10 Bezbožnika taru mnoge nevolje, a tko se uzda u Jahvu, njega okružuje milost.
Many are the scourges of the sinner: but him that hopes in the Lord mercy shall compass about.
11 Radujte se Jahvi i kličite, pravedni, kličite svi koji ste srca čestita!
Be glad in the Lord, and exult, you righteous: and glory, all you that are upright in heart.
