Psalmi 61

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

For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David. Hear my cry, God. Listen 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 you 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 you 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 your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

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

For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

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

You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.

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

He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your 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 your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
