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!

God, by your power [MTY, DOU] save me [from my enemies], and show people that I have not done anything that is wrong!

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

God, listen to my prayer; listen to what I say to you,

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

because strangers are [trying to] attack me; proud men are wanting to kill me; men who do not have any (respect for/interest in) you.

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

But God is the one who helps me; Yahweh defends/protects me [from my enemies].

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

He will cause the evil things that they want to do to me to happen to them instead; because he faithfully [does what he promises], he will get rid of them.

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

Yahweh, I will gladly give an offering to you because I want to, and I will thank you [MTY], for you are good [to me];

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

you have rescued me from all my troubles, and I have seen that you have defeated my enemies.
