Psalms 63

1 A psalm of David, when he was in the Judean desert. God, you are my God, I eagerly look for you. I am thirsty for you; all that I am longs for you in this dry, weary, waterless land.

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 I see you in the Temple; I watch your power and glory.

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

3 Your trustworthy love is better than life itself; I will praise you.

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

4 I will thank you as long as I live; I lift up my hands as I celebrate your wonderful character.

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

5 You satisfy me more than the richest food; I will praise you with joyful songs.

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

6 I think of you all night long as I lie on my bed meditating about you.

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

7 For you are the one who helps me; I sing happily from under your wings.

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

8 I hold on to you; your strong arms lift me up.

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

9 Those who are trying to destroy me will go down into the grave.

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

10 They will be killed by the sword; they will become food for jackals.

Izginuæe od maèa, i dopašæe lisicama.

11 But the king will be happy for what God has done. All who follow God will praise him, but those who tell lies will be silenced.

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