Psalmi 41

1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Blago onome koji misli na uboga i slaba: u dan nevolje Jahve će ga spasiti!

For the end, a Psalm of David. Blessed [is the man] who thinks, on the poor and needy: the Lord shall deliver him in an evil day.

2 Jahve će ga štititi i živa sačuvati, sreću mu dati na zemlji i neće ga predati na volju dušmanima.

May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy.

3 Jahve će ga ukrijepiti na postelji boli, bolest mu okrenuti u snagu.

May the Lord help him upon the bed of his pain; you have made all his bed in his sickness.

4 Zavapih: “Jahve, smiluj mi se, iscijeli mi dušu jer tebi sagriješih!”

I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.

5 Neprijatelji zlo govore o meni: “Kad će umrijeti i kad će mu nestati imena?”

Mine enemies have spoken evil against me, [saying], When shall he die, and his name perish?

6 I dođe li tko da me posjeti, himbeno govori, u srcu pakosti skuplja i vani opada.

And if he came to see [me], his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner.

7 Mrzitelji moji svi složno šapuću o meni; zlo mi dosuđuju:

All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt.

8 “Pogubna se pošast na nj oborila.” Ili: “Tko jednom leže, više ne ustaje.”

They denounced a wicked word against me, [saying], Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again?

9 Pa i prijatelj moj u koga se uzdah, koji blagovaše kruh moj, petu na me podiže.

For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up [his] heel against me.

10 A ti, Jahve, smiluj se meni i podigni me da im mogu uzvratiti.

But you, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them.

11 Po tome ću znati da sam mio tebi: što se dušmanin moj neće veseliti nada mnom.

By this I know that you have delighted in me, because mine enemy shall not rejoice over me.

12 A mene ćeš zdrava uzdržati i pred svoje me lice staviti dovijeka.

But you did help me because of [mine] innocence, and have established me before you for ever.

13 Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, od vijeka do vijeka! Tako neka bude! Amen!

Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. So be it, so be it.
