Psalms 101

1 A Psalm by David. I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.

Davidov. Psalam. Da zapjevam o dobroti i pravdi, tebi, Jahve, da zasviram!

2 I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

Razmatrat ću put savršenstva: kad li ćeš k meni doći? Hodit ću u nedužnosti srca u domu svojemu.

3 I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

Neću stavljati pred oči svoje ništa opako. Mrzim čovjeka koji čini zlo: on neće biti uza me.

4 A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.

Opako će srce biti daleko od mene; o zlu neću da znadem.

5 I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I will not tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.

Tko kleveće bližnjeg u potaji, toga ću pogubiti. Čovjeka oholih očiju i srca naduta ja ne podnosim.

6 My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

Pogled upravljam k vjernima na zemlji da sa mnom stanuju. Tko hodi putem nedužnim taj će mi služiti.

7 He who practices deceit will not dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood will not be established before my eyes.

Neće prebivati u kući mojoj tko spletke snuje. Tko govori laži, neće opstati pred mojim očima.

8 Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD’s city.

Svaki ću dan istrebljivati sve zlikovce u zemlji; iskorijenit ću iz grada Jahvina sve koji čine bezakonje.
