Psalms 10
1 Why, O LORD, do You stand far off? Why do You hide in times of trouble?
Zašto, Gospode, stojiš daleko, kriješ se kad je nevolja?
2 In pride the wicked pursue the needy; let them be caught in the schemes they devise.
S oholosti bezbožnikove muèe se ubogi; hvataju se ubogi prijevarom koju izmišljaju bezbožnici.
3 For the wicked man boasts in the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.
Jer se bezbožnik dièi željom duše svoje, grabljivca pohvaljuje.
4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek Him; in all his schemes there is no God.
Bezbožnik u obijesti svojoj ne mari za Gospoda: “on ne vidi.” Nema Boga u mislima njegovijem.
5 He is secure in his ways at all times; Your lofty judgments are far from him; he sneers at all his foes.
Svagda su putovi njegovi krivi; za sudove tvoje ne zna; na neprijatelje svoje neæe ni da gleda.
6 He says to himself, “I will not be moved; from age to age I am free of distress.”
U srcu svojem veli: neæu posrnuti; zlo neæe doæi nigda.
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and violence; trouble and malice are under his tongue.
Usta su mu puna nevaljalijeh rijeèi, prijevare i uvrede, pod jezikom je njegovijem muka i pogibao.
8 He lies in wait near the villages; in ambush he slays the innocent; his eyes watch in stealth for the helpless.
Sjedi u zasjedi iza kuæe; u potaji ubija pravoga; oèi njegove vrebaju ubogoga.
9 He lies in wait like a lion in a thicket; he lurks to seize the oppressed; he catches the lowly in his net.
Sjedi u potaji kao lav u peæini; sjedi u zasjedi da uhvati ubogoga; hvata ubogoga uvukavši u mrežu svoju.
10 They are crushed and beaten down; the hapless fall prey to his strength.
Pritaji se, prilegne, i ubogi padaju u jake nokte njegove.
11 He says to himself, “God has forgotten; He hides His face and never sees.”
Kaže u srcu svome: “Bog je zaboravio, okrenuo je lice svoje, neæe vidjeti nigda.”
12 Arise, O LORD! Lift up Your hand, O God! Do not forget the helpless.
Ustani, Gospode! digni ruku svoju, ne zaboravi nevoljnijeh.
13 Why has the wicked man renounced God? He says to himself, “You will never call me to account.”
Zašto bezbožnik da ne mari za Boga govoreæi u srcu svom da ti neæeš vidjeti?
14 But You have regarded trouble and grief; You see to repay it by Your hand. The victim entrusts himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless.
Ti vidiš; jer gledaš uvrede i muke i pišeš ih na ruci. Tebi predaje sebe ubogi; siroti ti si pomoænik.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call him to account for his wickedness until none is left to be found.
Satri mišicu bezbožnome i zlome, da se traži i ne naðe bezbožnost njegova.
16 The LORD is King forever and ever; the nations perish from His land.
Gospod je car svagda, dovijeka, nestaæe neznabožaca sa zemlje njegove.
17 You have heard, O LORD, the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their hearts. You will incline Your ear,
Gospode! ti èuješ želje ništih; utvrdi srce njihovo; otvori uho svoje,
18 to vindicate the fatherless and oppressed, that the men of the earth may strike terror no more.
Da daš sud siroti i nevoljniku, da prestanu goniti èovjeka sa zemlje.
