Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from the presence of his son Abessalom. O Lord, why are they that afflict me multiplied? many rise up against me.
Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom. Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
2 Many say concerning my soul, There is no deliverance for him in his God. (Pause)
Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
3 But thou, O Lord, art my helper: my glory, and the one that lifts up my head.
Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
4 I cried to the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy mountain. (Pause)
Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
5 I lay down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord will help me.
Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, who beset me round about.
Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
7 Arise, Lord; deliver me, my God: for thou hast smitten all who were without cause mine enemies; thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
8 Deliverance is the Lord's, and thy blessing is upon thy people.
U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
