Psalms 64

1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my voice in my plaint; preserve my life from fear of the enemy:

Èuj, Bože, glas moj u jadu mom; od strašnoga neprijatelja saèuvaj život moj.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, from the tumultuous crowd of the workers of iniquity,

Sakrij me od gomile bezakonika, od èete zloèinaca,

3 Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword, [and] have aimed their arrow, a bitter word;

Koji naoštriše jezik svoj kao maè, strijeljaju rijeèima, koje zadaju rane,

4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

Da bi iz potaje ubili pravoga. Iznenada udaraju na nj i ne boje se;

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter, they concert to hide snares; they say, Who will see them?

Utvrðuju sebe u zlijem namjerama, dogovaraju se kako æe zamke sakriti, vele: ko æe ih vidjeti?

6 They devise iniquities: We have it ready, the plan is diligently sought out. And each one's inward [thought] and heart is deep.

Izmišljaju zloèinstva i govore: svršeno je! šta æe se raditi, smišljeno je! A što je unutra i srce u èovjeka duboko je.

7 But God will shoot an arrow at them: suddenly are they wounded;

Ali æe ih Bog poraziti; udariæe ih strijela iznenada.

8 By their own tongue they are made to fall over one another: all that see them shall flee away.

Oboriæe jedan drugoga jezikom svojim. Ko ih god vidi, bježaæe od njih.

9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare God's doing; and they shall wisely consider his work.

Svi æe se ljudi bojati i kazivaæe èudo Božije, i poznaæe u tome djelo njegovo.

10 The righteous shall rejoice in Jehovah, and trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

A pravednik æe se veseliti o Gospodu i uzdaæe se u njega, i hvaliæe se svi koji su prava srca.
