Psalms 54

1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might!

Zborovođi. Uza žičana glazbala. Poučna pjesma. Davidova. Kad su Zifijci došli k Šaulu govoreći: “David se kod nas Spasi me, Bože, svojim imenom i jakošću svojom izbori mi pravdu!

2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.

Poslušaj, Bože, moju molitvu i usliši riječi usta mojih!

3 For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life— men with no regard for God.

Oholice ustadoše na me i moj život traže silnici: na Boga se ne osvrću.

4 Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Evo, Bog mi pomaže, Gospodin krijepi život moj.

5 He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them.

Okreni nesreću na dušmane moje, zatri ih u vjernosti svojoj.

6 Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good.

Od srca rado ću ti žrtvovati, slavit ću ti ime, Jahve, jer je dobrostivo,

7 For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes.

jer ti me izbavi iz svake nevolje, i oko moje vidje postiđene moje dušmane.
