Psalms 38
1 A psalm for David, for a remembrance of the sabbath. Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; nor chastise me in thy wrath.
Psalam. Davidov. Za spomen. Jahve, u srdžbi svojoj nemoj ne karati, i nemoj me kazniti u svojemu gnjevu.
2 For thy arrows are fastened in me: and thy hand hath been strong upon me.
Strijele se tvoje u me zabodoše, ruka me tvoja teško pritisnu:
3 There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.
na tijelu mi ništa zdravo nema zbog gnjeva tvog, od grijeha mojih mira mi nema kostima.
4 For my iniquities are gone over my head: and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.
Zloće moje glavu su mi nadišle, kao preteško breme tište me.
5 My sores are putrified and corrupted, because of my foolishness.
Rane moje zaudaraju i gnjiju zbog bezumnosti moje.
6 I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end: I walked sorrowful all the day long.
Pogurih se sav i zgrčih, povazdan lutam žalostan.
7 For my loins are filled with illusions; and there is no health in my flesh.
Moji bokovi puni su ognjice, na tijelu mi ništa zdravo nema.
8 I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly: I roared with the groaning of my heart.
Iscrpljen sam i satrven posve, stenjem od jecanja srca svojega.
9 Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my groaning is not hidden from thee.
O Gospode, sve su mi želje pred tobom, i vapaji moji nisu ti skriveni.
10 My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.
Srce mi udara silno, snaga me ostavlja i svjetlost vida očinjeg gasi se.
11 My friends and my neighbours have drawn near, and stood against me. And they that were near me stood afar off:
Prijatelji i drugovi od rana mojih uzmakoše, i moji najbliži stoje daleko.
12 And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.
Namještaju mi zamke oni koji mi život vrebaju, koji mi žele nesreću, propašću mi prijete i uvijek smišljaju prijevare.
13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not: and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
A ja sam kao gluh i ništa ne čujem i, kao nijem, usta ne otvaram.
14 And I became as a man that heareth not: and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.
Postadoh k'o čovjek koji ne čuje i koji u ustima nema odgovora.
15 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.
Jer u tebe se, o Jahve, uzdam, ti ćeš me uslišati, Jahve, Bože moj!
16 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.
Rekoh: “Nek' se ne raduju nada mnom; kad mi noga posrne, nek' se ne uzdižu nada mnom!”
17 For I am ready for scourges: and my sorrow is continually before me.
Jer umalo ne propadoh, i moja je bol svagda preda mnom.
18 For I will declare my inequity: and I will think for my sin.
Bezakonje svoje ja priznajem i pun sam žalosti zbog grijeha svojega.
19 But my enemies live, and are stronger that I: and they hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
A koji su bez razloga protiv mene, moćni su, i mnogi su koji me mrze nepravedno.
20 They that render evil for good, have detracted me, because I followed goodness.
Za dobro zlom mi uzvraćaju, protive mi se što tražim dobro.
21 Forsake me not, O Lord my God: do not thou depart from me.
O Jahve, ne ostavljaj me! Bože moj, ne udaljuj se od mene!
22 Attend unto my help, O Lord, the God of my salvation.
Požuri se meni u pomoć, Gospode, spase moj!
