Psalmi 61

1 Zborovođi. Uza žičana glazbala. Davidov. O Bože, vapaj mi poslušaj, budi pomnjiv na molitvu moju!

Hear my cry, O God. Attend to my prayer.

2 S kraja zemlje vapijem k tebi jer mi srce klonu. Dignut ćeš me na liticu i pokoj mi dati,

From the end of the earth I will call to thee when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 jer ti si moje sklonište, utvrda čvrsta protiv dušmana.

For thou have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 O, da mi je stanovati uvijek u tvom šatoru, da se sklanjat' mogu pod okrilje tvoje!

I will dwell in thy tabernacle forever. I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

5 Jer ti, Bože, usliši molbe moje, dade mi baštinu onih što ime ti štuju.

For thou, O God, have heard my vows. Thou have given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.

6 Kraljevim danima pridometni danÄa, kroz koljena mnoga nek' mu ljeta traju,

Thou will prolong the king's life. His years shall be as many generations.

7 nek' pred Bogom uvijek vlada; dobrotu i vjernost pošalji da ga čuvaju!

He shall abide before God forever. O prepare loving kindness and truth that they may preserve him.

8 Ovako ću pjevat svagda tvom imenu, dan za danom vršit' zavjete svoje.

So I will sing praise to thy name forever, that I may daily perform my vows.
