Psalms 5

1 For the choirmaster, to be accompanied by flutes. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD; consider my groaning.

Zborovođi. Uz frule. Psalam. Davidov. Čuj, o Jahve, riječi moje, jecaje moje razaberi!

2 Attend to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to You I pray.

Osvrni se na glas mog prizivanja, o Kralju moj i Bože moj, jer tebe vruće zazivam!

3 In the morning, O LORD, You hear my voice; at daybreak I lay my plea before You and wait in expectation.

Jahve, zorom glas mi već čuješ, zorom ti već lijem molitve u nadi čekajuć'.

4 For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; no evil can dwell with You.

Jer ti nisi Bog kom je nepravda mila: zlobniku nema boravka s tobom,

5 The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity.

opaki ne mogu opstati pred tvojim pogledom. Mrziš sve što čine bezakonje

6 You destroy those who tell lies; the LORD abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit.

i uništavaš lažljivce. Varalica i krvopija Jahvi se gadi.

7 But I will enter Your house by the abundance of Your loving devotion; in reverence I will bow down toward Your holy temple.

Po velikoj dobroti tvojoj unići ću u Dom tvoj; past ću ničice pred svetim Domom tvojim, Jahve, prepun poštovanja.

8 Lead me, O LORD, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make straight Your way before me.

U svojoj me pravdi vodi poradi mojih dušmana, svoj put mi poravnaj pred očima.

9 For not a word they speak can be trusted; destruction lies within them. Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.

U njihovim ustima iskrenosti nema, srce im je puno zloće; grlo im je grob otvoren, a jezikom laskaju.

10 Declare them guilty, O God; let them fall by their own devices. Drive them out for their many transgressions, for they have rebelled against You.

Kazni ih, o Bože! Nek' propadnu oni i osnove njine, otjeraj ih zbog mnogih nedjela njihovih; tÓa oni se digoše na tebe.

11 But let all who take refuge in You rejoice; let them ever shout for joy. May You shelter them, that those who love Your name may rejoice in You.

Nek' se raduju svi što se utječu tebi, neka kliču sve dovijeka! Štiti ih i nek se vesele u tebi koji ljube ime tvoje,

12 For surely You, O LORD, bless the righteous; You surround them with the shield of Your favor.

jer pravednika, Jahve, ti blagoslivljaš, dobrotom ga svojom k'o štitom zaklanjaš.
