Psalmi 5

1 Zborovođi. Uz frule. Psalam. Davidov. Čuj, o Jahve, riječi moje, jecaje moje razaberi!

“To the chief musician upon Nechiloth, a psalm of David.” To my words give ear, O Lord, have regard to my mediation.

2 Osvrni se na glas mog prizivanja, o Kralju moj i Bože moj, jer tebe vruće zazivam!

Listen unto the voice of my loud cry, my King, and my God, when unto thee I pray.

3 Jahve, zorom glas mi već čuješ, zorom ti već lijem molitve u nadi čekajuć'.

O Lord! in the morning do thou hear my voice: in the morning will I set in order [my prayer] before thee, and 1ook up with hope.

4 Jer ti nisi Bog kom je nepravda mila: zlobniku nema boravka s tobom,

For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: evil cannot abide with thee.

5 opaki ne mogu opstati pred tvojim pogledom. Mrziš sve što čine bezakonje

The arrogant cannot stand up before thy eyes: thou hatest all workers of wickedness.

6 i uništavaš lažljivce. Varalica i krvopija Jahvi se gadi.

Thou wilt destroy those that speak lies: the man of blood and deceit the Lord abhorreth.

7 Po velikoj dobroti tvojoj unići ću u Dom tvoj; past ću ničice pred svetim Domom tvojim, Jahve, prepun poštovanja.

But as for me—in the abundance of thy kindness will I enter thy house: I will bow myself down before thy holy temple in the fear of thee.

8 U svojoj me pravdi vodi poradi mojih dušmana, svoj put mi poravnaj pred očima.

O Lord, lead me in thy righteousness because of those that regard me enviously; make straight before me thy way.

9 U njihovim ustima iskrenosti nema, srce im je puno zloće; grlo im je grob otvoren, a jezikom laskaju.

For there is not in their mouth any sincerity; their inward part is full of deception; an open sepulchre is their throat: they flatter with their tongue.

10 Kazni ih, o Bože! Nek' propadnu oni i osnove njine, otjeraj ih zbog mnogih nedjela njihovih; tÓa oni se digoše na tebe.

Condemn them, O God: let them fall through their own counsels; for the multitude of their transgressions cast them down; for they have rebelled against thee.

11 Nek' se raduju svi što se utječu tebi, neka kliču sve dovijeka! Štiti ih i nek se vesele u tebi koji ljube ime tvoje,

Then will rejoice all those that put their trust in thee; for ever will they shout for joy, when thou protectest them: and then will exult in thee those that love thy name.

12 jer pravednika, Jahve, ti blagoslivljaš, dobrotom ga svojom k'o štitom zaklanjaš.

For thou wilt bless the righteous, O Lord; as with a shield wilt thou encompass him with favor.
