Psalms 91
1 Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;
Ti što prebivaš pod zaštitom Višnjega, što počivaš u sjeni Svemogućega,
2 Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.
reci Jahvi: “Zaklone moj! Utvrdo moja! Bože moj u koga se uzdam!”
3 He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.
Jer on će te osloboditi od zamke ptičarske, od kuge pogubne.
4 You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.
Svojim će te krilima zaštititi i pod njegova ćeš se krila skloniti: Vjernost je njegova štit i obrana!
5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,
Nećeš se bojati strašila noćnoga ni strelice što leti danju,
6 Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.
ni kuge što se šulja kroz tmine, ni pošasti što hara o podne.
7 You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
Pa nek' padaju tisuće kraj tebe, deseci tisuća s desne tvoje, tebi se neće primaći!
8 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.
Tek što okom pogledaš, već ćeš vidjeti plaću grešnika.
9 Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;
Jer Jahve je zaklon tvoj, Višnjega odabra sebi za okrilje.
10 No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.
Neće te snaći nesreća, nevolja se neće prikučiti šatoru tvojemu.
11 For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.
Jer anđelima svojim zapovjedi da te čuvaju na svim putima tvojim.
12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
Na rukama će te nositi da se ne spotakneš o kamen.
13 You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.
Nogom ćeš gaziti lava i ljuticu, zgazit ćeš lavića i zmiju.
14 Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.
Izbavit ću ga jer me ljubi, zakrilit ga jer poznaje ime moje.
15 When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.
Zazvat će me, a ja ću ga uslišiti, s njim ću biti u nevolji, spasit ću ga i proslaviti.
16 With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.
Nasitit ću ga danima mnogim, pokazat' mu spasenje svoje.”
