Psalmi 41
1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Blago onome koji misli na uboga i slaba: u dan nevolje Jahve će ga spasiti!
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Happy is he who hath regard to the poor! The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2 Jahve će ga štititi i živa sačuvati, sreću mu dati na zemlji i neće ga predati na volju dušmanima.
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; He shall be happy on the earth; Thou wilt not give him up to the will of his enemies!
3 Jahve će ga ukrijepiti na postelji boli, bolest mu okrenuti u snagu.
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of disease; All his bed thou wilt change in his sickness.
4 Zavapih: “Jahve, smiluj mi se, iscijeli mi dušu jer tebi sagriješih!”
I said, O LORD! be merciful to me! Heal me, for I have sinned against thee!
5 Neprijatelji zlo govore o meni: “Kad će umrijeti i kad će mu nestati imena?”
My enemies speak evil of me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
6 I dođe li tko da me posjeti, himbeno govori, u srcu pakosti skuplja i vani opada.
If one come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; His heart gathereth malice; When he goeth abroad, he uttereth it.
7 Mrzitelji moji svi složno šapuću o meni; zlo mi dosuđuju:
All that hate me whisper together against me; Against me do they devise mischief:
8 “Pogubna se pošast na nj oborila.” Ili: “Tko jednom leže, više ne ustaje.”
“A deadly disease cleaveth fast unto him; He lieth down, and he shall never arise!”
9 Pa i prijatelj moj u koga se uzdah, koji blagovaše kruh moj, petu na me podiže.
Yea, my familiar friend in whom I trusted, who did eat of my bread, —He hath lifted up his heel against me.
10 A ti, Jahve, smiluj se meni i podigni me da im mogu uzvratiti.
But do thou, O LORD! have pity upon me; Raise me up, that I may requite them!
11 Po tome ću znati da sam mio tebi: što se dušmanin moj neće veseliti nada mnom.
By this I know that thou favorest me, Because my enemy doth not triumph over me.
12 A mene ćeš zdrava uzdržati i pred svoje me lice staviti dovijeka.
As for me, thou wilt uphold me in my integrity; Thou wilt set me before thy face for ever!
13 Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, od vijeka do vijeka! Tako neka bude! Amen!
[Praised be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting to everlasting. Amen! Amen!]
