Psalms 28

1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.

Davidov. K tebi, o Jahve, vapijem, hridino moja, ne ogluši se na me: da neuslišan ne postanem kao oni koji u grob silaze.

2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.

Čuj moje zazivanje dok tebi vapijem, dok ruke uzdižem svetomu Hramu tvojem.

3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.

Ne uzmi me s bezbožnicima i s onima koji čine bezakonje, koji govore slatko s bližnjima a u srcu im je pakost.

4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.

Daj im po djelima njihovim i po zloći njihovih nedjela! Po djelu ruku njihovih plati im, uzvrati im po njihovoj zasluzi!

5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.

Jer ne mare za čine Jahvine ni za djelo ruku njegovih: nek' ih obori i više ne podigne!

6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.

Blagoslovljen Jahve što usliša zazivanje moje! Jahve mi je zaklon, on štit je moj.

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.

U njega se srce moje pouzdalo i pomoć mi dođe; zato mi kliče srce i pjesmom njega slavim.

8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.

Jahve je jakost narodu svome, tvrđava spasa svom pomazaniku.

9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.

Spasi narod svoj i blagoslovi svoju baštinu, pasi ih i nosi ih dovijeka!
