Psalmi 91
1 Ti što prebivaš pod zaštitom Višnjega, što počivaš u sjeni Svemogućega,
The praise of a canticle for David. He that dwelleth in the aid of the most High, shall abide under the protection of the God of Jacob.
2 reci Jahvi: “Zaklone moj! Utvrdo moja! Bože moj u koga se uzdam!”
He shall say to the Lord: Thou art my protector, and my refuge: my God, in him will I trust.
3 Jer on će te osloboditi od zamke ptičarske, od kuge pogubne.
For he hath delivered me from the snare of the hunters: and from the sharp word.
4 Svojim će te krilima zaštititi i pod njegova ćeš se krila skloniti: Vjernost je njegova štit i obrana!
He will overshadow thee with his shoulders: and under his wings thou shalt trust.
5 Nećeš se bojati strašila noćnoga ni strelice što leti danju,
His truth shall compass thee with a shield: thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night.
6 ni kuge što se šulja kroz tmine, ni pošasti što hara o podne.
Of the arrow that flieth in the day, of the business that walketh about in the dark: of invasion, or of the noonday devil.
7 Pa nek' padaju tisuće kraj tebe, deseci tisuća s desne tvoje, tebi se neće primaći!
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Tek što okom pogledaš, već ćeš vidjeti plaću grešnika.
But thou shalt consider with thy eyes: and shalt see the reward of the wicked.
9 Jer Jahve je zaklon tvoj, Višnjega odabra sebi za okrilje.
Because thou, O Lord, art my hope: thou hast made the most High thy refuge.
10 Neće te snaći nesreća, nevolja se neće prikučiti šatoru tvojemu.
There shall no evil come to thee: nor shall the scourge come near thy dwelling.
11 Jer anđelima svojim zapovjedi da te čuvaju na svim putima tvojim.
For he hath given his angels charge over thee; to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 Na rukama će te nositi da se ne spotakneš o kamen.
In their hands they shall bear thee up: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Nogom ćeš gaziti lava i ljuticu, zgazit ćeš lavića i zmiju.
Thou shalt walk upon the asp and the basilisk: and thou shalt trample under foot the lion and the dragon.
14 Izbavit ću ga jer me ljubi, zakrilit ga jer poznaje ime moje.
Because he hoped in me I will deliver him: I will protect him because he hath known my name.
15 Zazvat će me, a ja ću ga uslišiti, s njim ću biti u nevolji, spasit ću ga i proslaviti.
He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: I am with him in tribulation, I will deliver 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 shew him my salvation.
