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!

“For the leader of the music. To be sung on stringed instruments A psalm of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?” Save me, O God! by thy name, And by thy strength defend my cause!

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 enemies have risen up against me, And oppressors seek my life; They have not set God before their eyes. (Pause)

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

Behold! God is my helper; The Lord is the support of my life.

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

He will repay evil to my enemies; For thy truth's sake, O God! cut them off!

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

With a willing heart will I sacrifice to thee; I will praise thy name, O LORD! for it is good;

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

For thou hast delivered me from all trouble, So that my eye hath looked with joy upon my enemies!
