Psalmi 90
1 Molitva. Mojsija, sluge Božjega. Jahve, ti nam bijaše okrilje od koljena do koljena.
A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Prije nego se rodiše bregovi, prije nego postade kopno i krug zemaljski, od vijeka do vijeka, Bože, ti jesi!
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Smrtnike u prah vraćaš i veliš: “Vratite se, sinovi ljudski!”
Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 Jer je tisuću godina u očima tvojim k'o jučerašnji dan koji je minuo i kao straža noćna.
For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Razgoniš ih k'o jutarnji san, kao trava su što se zeleni:
Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth.
6 jutrom cvate i sva se zeleni, a uvečer - već se suši i vene.
In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 Zaista, izjeda nas tvoja srdžba i zbunjuje ljutina tvoja.
For we are consumed by thy anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Naše si grijehe stavio pred svoje oči, naše potajne grijehe na svjetlost lica svojega.
Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 Jer svi naši dani prođoše u gnjevu tvojemu, kao uzdah dovršismo godine svoje.
For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 Zbroj naše dobi sedamdeset je godina, ako smo snažni, i osamdeset; a većina od njih muka je i ništavost: jer prolaze brzo i mi letimo odavle.
The days of our years are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Tko će mjeriti žestinu gnjeva tvojega, tko proniknuti srdžbu tvoju?
Who knoweth the power of thy anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 Nauči nas dane naše brojiti, da steknemo mudro srce.
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
13 Vrati se k nama, Jahve! TÓa dokle ćeš? Milostiv budi slugama svojim!
Return, O LORD, how long? and repent thou concerning thy servants.
14 Jutrom nas nasiti smilovanjem svojim, da kličemo i da se veselimo u sve dane!
O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Obraduj nas za dane kad si nas šibao, za ljeta kad smo stradali!
Make us glad according to the days in which thou hast afflicted us, and the years in which we have seen evil.
16 Neka se na slugama tvojim pokaže djelo tvoje i tvoja slava na djeci njihovoj!
Let thy work appear to thy servants, and thy glory to their children.
17 Dobrota Jahve, Boga našega, nek' bude nad nama daj da nam uspije djelo naših ruku, djelo ruku naših nek' uspije.
And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
