Psalms 63

1 A Psalm of David; when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee. My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh languisheth for thee, in a dry and weary land without water:

Bože! ti si Bog moj, k tebi ranim, žedna je tebe duša moja, za tobom èezne tijelo moje u zemlji suhoj, žednoj i bezvodnoj.

2 To see thy power and thy glory, as I have beheld thee in the sanctuary;

Tako bih te ugledao u svetinji, da bih vidio silu tvoju i slavu tvoju.

3 For thy loving-kindness is better than life: my lips shall praise thee.

Jer je dobrota tvoja bolja od života. Usta bi moja hvalila tebe;

4 So will I bless thee while I live; I will lift up my hands in thy name.

Tako bih te blagosiljao za života svoga, u ime tvoje podigao bih ruke svoje.

5 My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips.

Kao salom i uljem nasitila bi se duša moja, i radosnijem glasom hvalila bi te usta moja.

6 When I remember thee upon my bed, I meditate on thee in the night-watches:

Kad te se sjeæam na postelji, sve noæne straže razmišljam o tebi.

7 For thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing for joy.

Jer si ti pomoæ moja, i u sjenu krila tvojih veselim se.

8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

Duša se moja prilijepila za tebe, desnica tvoja drži me.

9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go into the lower parts of the earth;

Koji traže pogibao duši mojoj, oni æe otiæi pod zemlju.

10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be the portion of foxes.

Izginuæe od maèa, i dopašæe lisicama.

11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: for the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

A car æe se veseliti o Bogu, hvaliæe se svaki koji se kune njim, kad se zatisnu usta onima koji govore laž.
