Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. Jehovah, how many are they that trouble me, many they that 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 of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. (Selah)
Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
3 But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
4 With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from the hill of his holiness. (Selah)
Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
6 I will not fear for myriads of the people that have set themselves against me round about.
Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
7 Arise, Jehovah; save me, my God! For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone, thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
8 Salvation is of Jehovah; thy blessing is upon thy people. (Selah)
U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
