Psalms 55
1 To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments: an instruction. Of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Usliši, Bože, molitvu moju, i nemoj se sakriti od moljenja mojega.
2 Attend unto me, and answer me: I wander about in my plaint, and I moan aloud,
Pazi, i saslušaj me; cvilim u jadu svom i uzdišem
3 Because of the voice of the enemy; because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in anger they persecute me.
Od vike neprijateljske i od dosade bezbožnièke; jer dižu na me zlo, i u gnjevu gone me.
4 My heart is writhing within me, and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
Srce je moje uzdrktalo u meni, i strah smrtni popade me;
5 Fear and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
Strah i trepet doðe na me, i groza poduze me.
6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away, and be at rest;
I rekoh: ko bi mi dao krila golubinja? ja bih odleteo i poèinuo;
7 Behold, I would flee afar off, I would lodge in the wilderness; (Selah)
Daleko bih pobjegao, i nastanio se u pustinji.
8 I would hasten my escape from the stormy wind, from the tempest.
Pohitao bih da uteèem od vihora i od bure.
9 Swallow [them] up, Lord; divide their tongue: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Porazi, Gospode, i razdijeli jezike njihove, jer vidim nasilje i svaðu u gradu;
10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; and iniquity and mischief are in the midst of it.
Danju i noæu to hodi po zidovima njegovijem; zloèinstvo je i muka posred njega.
11 Perversities are in the midst thereof; and oppression and deceit depart not from its streets.
Usred njega je pogibao, s ulice njegove ne odlazi prijevara i lukavstvo.
12 For it is not an enemy that hath reproached me — then could I have borne it; neither is it he that hateth me that hath magnified [himself] against me — then would I have hidden myself from him;
Jer ne ruži me neprijatelj moj, to bih podnio; ne ustaje na me javni nenavidnik, od njega bih se sakrio.
13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, mine intimate, my familiar friend. ...
Nego ti koji si mi bio to što ja sam, drug moj i znanac moj.
14 We who held sweet intercourse together. To the house of God we walked amid the throng.
S kojim mi bješe radost dijeliti tajnu, i u dom Božji hodih kroz sabor narodni.
15 Let death seize upon them, let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwellings, in their midst. (Sheol h7585)
Neka ih ugrabi smrt, neka živi siðu u pakao, jer je zloèinstvo u stanu njihovu i u njima. (Sheol h7585)
16 As for me, unto God will I call; and Jehovah will save me.
Ja Boga prizivljem, i Gospod æe me spasti.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray and moan aloud; and he will hear my voice.
Veèerom i jutrom i u podne tužim i uzdišem, i èuæe glas moj;
18 He hath redeemed my soul in peace from the battle against me: for there were many about me.
Uèiniæe, te æe duša moja biti mirna od onijeh koji napadaju na me, jer ih mnogo imam.
19 God will hear, and afflict them: he that is seated of old, (Selah) ...because there is no change in them, and they fear not God.
Da usliši, i ukroti ih Bog, koji živi od vijeka; jer se ne mijenjaju i ne boje se Boga.
20 He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant.
Dižu ruke svoje na one koji su s njima u miru, i raskidaju svoju družbu.
21 Smooth were the milky [words] of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet are they drawn swords.
Usta su im meka kao maslo, a na srcu im je rat. Rijeèi su im blaže od ulja, ali su goli maèevi.
22 Cast thy burden upon Jehovah, and he will sustain thee: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Stavi na Gospoda breme svoje, i on æe te potkrijepiti. Neæe dati dovijeka pravedniku da posrne.
23 And thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days. But as for me, I will confide in thee.
Ti æeš ih, Bože, svaliti u jamu pogibli; krvopije i lukavi neæe sastaviti polovine dana svojih. A ja se u tebe uzdam.
