< Psalms 101 >
1 A Psalm of David. I will sing to you, O Lord, of mercy and judgement; I will sing a psalm,
Davidov. Psalam. Da zapjevam o dobroti i pravdi, tebi, Jahve, da zasviram!
2 and I will be wise in a blameless way. When will you come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.
Razmatrat ću put savršenstva: kad li ćeš k meni doći? Hodit ću u nedužnosti srca u domu svojemu.
3 I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful ting; I have hated transgressors.
Neću stavljati pred oči svoje ništa opako. Mrzim čovjeka koji čini zlo: on neće biti uza me.
4 A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.
Opako će srce biti daleko od mene; o zlu neću da znadem.
5 Him that privily speaks against his neighbour, him have I driven from [me]: he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart, —with him I have not eaten.
Tko kleveće bližnjeg u potaji, toga ću pogubiti. Čovjeka oholih očiju i srca naduta ja ne podnosim.
6 Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.
Pogled upravljam k vjernima na zemlji da sa mnom stanuju. Tko hodi putem nedužnim taj će mi služiti.
7 The proud doer lived not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.
Neće prebivati u kući mojoj tko spletke snuje. Tko govori laži, neće opstati pred mojim očima.
8 Early did I kill all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.
Svaki ću dan istrebljivati sve zlikovce u zemlji; iskorijenit ću iz grada Jahvina sve koji čine bezakonje.
