Psalmi 9
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Umri za sina”. Psalam. Davidov. ALEF Slavim te, Jahve, svim srcem svojim, ispovijedam sva čudesna djela tvoja.
“For the leader of the music; to be sung in the manner or with the voice of maidens. To the Benites, or to Ben. A psalm of David.” I will praise thee, O LORD! with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works.
2 Radujem se i kličem tebi, pjevam imenu tvome, Svevišnji!
I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High!
3 BET Dušmani moji natrag krenuše, padoše i pred licem tvojim pogiboše.
All my enemies are turned back; They fall and perish at thy presence.
4 Jer ti se zauze za moje pravo i parbu moju, ti sjede na prijesto - sudac pravedan:
For thou dost defend my right and my cause; Thou sittest upon the throne, a righteous judge.
5 GIMEL ti pokara pogane, pogubi bezbošca, ime im izbrisa dovijeka.
Thou rebukest the nations; Thou destroyest the wicked; Thou blottest out their name for evermore!
6 Dušmani klonuše, smrvljeni zauvijek, ti im gradove razori - nesta im spomena.
The enemy is fallen, —a desolation for ever! Thou, O LORD! hast destroyed their cities; Their memory itself hath perished!
7 HE Ali Jahve dovijeka stoluje, postavi prijesto svoj da sudi:
The LORD reigneth for ever; He hath prepared his throne for judgment.
8 sam po pravdi sudi krug zemaljski, izreče pucima osudu pravednu.
He judgeth the world in righteousness; He administereth judgment to the nations with uprightness.
9 VAU Jahve je tvrđava tlačenom, tvrđava spasa u danima tjeskobe.
Yea, the LORD is a refuge for the oppressed; A refuge in times of trouble.
10 Nek' se uzdaju u te koji znaju ime tvoje, jer ne ostavljaš onih što ljube tebe, o Jahve.
They who know thy name put their trust in thee; For thou, O LORD! forsakest not them that seek thee!
11 ZAJIN Pjevajte Jahvi koji prebiva na Sionu, razglašujte među pucima djela njegova,
Sing praises to the LORD, who reigneth in Zion; Declare his doings among the people!
12 jer ih se spomenu kao osvetnik krvi i siromaškog jauka ne zaboravi.
As the avenger of blood, he remembereth the distressed; He forgetteth not their complaint.
13 HET Smiluj mi se, Jahve: pogledaj nevolju u koju me vrgoše neprijatelji moji, od vrata smrti izbavi me
“Have pity upon me, [[said I, ]] O LORD! Look upon my affliction through them that hate me; Lift me up from the gates of death:
14 da naviještam sve hvale tvoje na vratima kćeri Sionske, da radostan kličem zbog spasenja tvoga.
That I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion; That I may rejoice in salvation by thee.”
15 TET Pogani padoše u jamu koju sami iskopaše, zamka koju potajno staviše uhvati nogu njihovu.
The nations have sunk into the pit which they made; In the net, which they hid, is their own foot taken.
16 Jahve se iskaza i sud održa; grešnik se spleo u djela svoja.
Thus it is known that the LORD executeth judgment; The wicked are ensnared in the work of their own hands. [[Stringed instruments. (Pause)
The wicked shall be driven into the underworld; Yea, all the nations that forger God. (Sheol h7585)
18 KAF Jer siromah neće pasti u zaborav zauvijek, ufanje ubogih neće biti zaludu dovijeka.
For the poor shall not always be forgotten; The hopes of the afflicted shall not perish for ever.
19 Ustani, Jahve, da se ne osili čovjek, nek' pogani budu osuđeni pred tobom!
Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail; Let the nations be judged by thee!
20 Strah im, o Jahve, utjeraj, nek' spoznaju pogani da su smrtnici!
Strike terror into them, O LORD! Let the nations know that they are but men! (Pause)
