Psalms 64

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Èuj, Bože, glas moj u jadu mom; od strašnoga neprijatelja saèuvaj život moj.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

Sakrij me od gomile bezakonika, od èete zloèinaca,

3 Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,

Koji naoštriše jezik svoj kao maè, strijeljaju rijeèima, koje zadaju rane,

4 That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

Da bi iz potaje ubili pravoga. Iznenada udaraju na nj i ne boje se;

5 They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?

Utvrðuju sebe u zlijem namjerama, dogovaraju se kako æe zamke sakriti, vele: ko æe ih vidjeti?

6 They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, [say they], a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.

Izmišljaju zloèinstva i govore: svršeno je! šta æe se raditi, smišljeno je! A što je unutra i srce u èovjeka duboko je.

7 But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.

Ali æe ih Bog poraziti; udariæe ih strijela iznenada.

8 So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.

Oboriæe jedan drugoga jezikom svojim. Ko ih god vidi, bježaæe od njih.

9 And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.

Svi æe se ljudi bojati i kazivaæe èudo Božije, i poznaæe u tome djelo njegovo.

10 The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory.

A pravednik æe se veseliti o Gospodu i uzdaæe se u njega, i hvaliæe se svi koji su prava srca.
