Psalmi 91
1 Ti što prebivaš pod zaštitom Višnjega, što počivaš u sjeni Svemogućega,
The Praise of a Canticle, of David. Whoever dwells with the assistance of the Most High will abide in the protection of the God of heaven.
2 reci Jahvi: “Zaklone moj! Utvrdo moja! Bože moj u koga se uzdam!”
He will say to the Lord, “You are my supporter and my refuge.” My God, I will hope in him.
3 Jer on će te osloboditi od zamke ptičarske, od kuge pogubne.
For he has freed me from the snare of those who go hunting, and from the harsh word.
4 Svojim će te krilima zaštititi i pod njegova ćeš se krila skloniti: Vjernost je njegova štit i obrana!
He will overshadow you with his shoulders, and you will hope under his wings.
5 Nećeš se bojati strašila noćnoga ni strelice što leti danju,
His truth will surround you with a shield. You will not be afraid: before the terror of the night,
6 ni kuge što se šulja kroz tmine, ni pošasti što hara o podne.
before the arrow flying in the day, before the troubles that wander in the darkness, nor of invasion and the midday demon.
7 Pa nek' padaju tisuće kraj tebe, deseci tisuća s desne tvoje, tebi se neće primaći!
A thousand will fall before your side and ten thousand before your right hand. Yet it will not draw near you.
8 Tek što okom pogledaš, već ćeš vidjeti plaću grešnika.
So then, truly, you will consider with your eyes, and you will see the retribution of sinners.
9 Jer Jahve je zaklon tvoj, Višnjega odabra sebi za okrilje.
For you, O Lord, are my hope. You have set the Most High as your refuge.
10 Neće te snaći nesreća, nevolja se neće prikučiti šatoru tvojemu.
Disaster will not draw near to you, and the scourge will not approach your tabernacle.
11 Jer anđelima svojim zapovjedi da te čuvaju na svim putima tvojim.
For he has given his Angels charge over you, so as to preserve you in all your ways.
12 Na rukama će te nositi da se ne spotakneš o kamen.
With their hands, they will carry you, lest you hurt your foot against a stone.
13 Nogom ćeš gaziti lava i ljuticu, zgazit ćeš lavića i zmiju.
You will walk over the asp and the king serpent, and you will trample the lion and the dragon.
14 Izbavit ću ga jer me ljubi, zakrilit ga jer poznaje ime moje.
Because he has hoped in me, I will free him. I will protect him because he has known my name.
15 Zazvat će me, a ja ću ga uslišiti, s njim ću biti u nevolji, spasit ću ga i proslaviti.
He will cry out to me, and I will heed him. I am with him in tribulation. I will rescue him, and I will glorify him.
16 Nasitit ću ga danima mnogim, pokazat' mu spasenje svoje.”
I will fill him with length of days. And I will reveal to him my salvation.
