Psalmi 54

1 Zborovođi. Uza žičana glazbala. Poučna pjesma. Davidova. Kad su Zifijci došli k Šaulu govoreći: “David se kod nas Spasi me, Bože, svojim imenom i jakošću svojom izbori mi pravdu!

Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David. When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.

2 Poslušaj, Bože, moju molitvu i usliši riječi usta mojih!

O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Oholice ustadoše na me i moj život traže silnici: na Boga se ne osvrću.

For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.

4 Evo, Bog mi pomaže, Gospodin krijepi život moj.

For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.

5 Okreni nesreću na dušmane moje, zatri ih u vjernosti svojoj.

Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.

6 Od srca rado ću ti žrtvovati, slavit ću ti ime, Jahve, jer je dobrostivo,

I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:

7 jer ti me izbavi iz svake nevolje, i oko moje vidje postiđene moje dušmane.

For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.
