Psalms 31
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David. In thee, O Lord, haue I put my trust: let mee neuer be confounded: deliuer me in thy righteousnesse.
Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Tebi se, Jahve, utječem, o, da se ne postidim nikada: u svojoj me pravdi izbavi!
2 Bowe downe thine eare to me: make haste to deliuer mee: be vnto me a stronge rocke, and an house of defence to saue me.
Prikloni k meni uho svoje, pohiti da me oslobodiš! Budi mi hrid zaštite, tvrđava spasenja.
3 For thou art my rocke and my fortresse: therefore for thy Names sake direct mee and guide me.
Jer ti si hrid moja, tvđava moja, radi svoga imena vodi me i ravnaj.
4 Drawe mee out of the nette, that they haue layde priuilie for mee: for thou art my strength.
Izvuci me iz mreže koju mi zapeše, jer ti si moje utočište.
5 Into thine hand I commend my spirit: for thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of trueth.
U tvoje ruke duh svoj predajem: otkupi me, Jahve, Bože vjerni.
6 I haue hated them that giue them selues to deceitfull vanities: for I trust in the Lord.
Ti mrziš one koji štuju ništavne kumire, a ja se u Jahvu uzdam.
7 I wil be glad and reioyce in thy mercie: for thou hast seene my trouble: thou hast knowen my soule in aduersities,
Radosno ću klicat' tvojoj milosti, jer si na moju bijedu pogledao, pomogao u tjeskobi duši mojoj.
8 And thou hast not shut me vp in the hand of the enemie, but hast set my feete at large.
Nisi me predao u ruke dušmana, noge si mi na prostran put izveo.
9 Haue mercie vpon mee, O Lord: for I am in trouble: mine eye, my soule and my bellie are consumed with griefe.
Smiluj mi se, Jahve, jer sam u tjeskobi, od jada slabi mi oko, duša i tijelo.
10 For my life is wasted with heauinesse, and my yeeres with mourning: my strength faileth for my paine, and my bones are consumed.
Život mi se troši u gorčini, ljeta moja u jecanju. U muci mi se iscrpila snaga i kosti su moje klonule.
11 I was a reproch among all mine enemies, but specially among my neighbours: and a feare to mine acquaintance, who seeing me in the streete, fled from me.
Dušmanima svojim postao sam ruglo, susjedima podsmijeh, a znancima strašilo; koji me vide vani, bježe od mene.
12 I am forgotten, as a dead man out of minde: I am like a broken vessell.
Nestalo me k'o mrtvaca iz sjećanja ljudi, postadoh k'o razbijena posuda.
13 For I haue heard the rayling of great men: feare was on euery side, while they conspired together against mee, and consulted to take my life.
Čujem šaputanje mnogih, užas odasvud: sastaju se protiv mene i smišljaju kako da mi život oduzmu.
14 But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.
A ja se, Jahve, u tebe uzdam; govorim: Ti si Bog moj!
15 My times are in thine hande: deliuer mee from the hande of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
U tvojoj je ruci sudbina moja: istrgni me iz ruke dušmana i onih koji me progone!
16 Make thy face to shine vpon thy seruant, and saue me through thy mercie.
Rasvijetli lice nad slugom svojim, po svojoj me dobroti spasi.
17 Let me not be confounded, O Lord: for I haue called vpon thee: let the wicked bee put to confusion, and to silence in the graue. (Sheol h7585)
Jahve, ne bilo me stid što tebe zazvah! Neka se postide zlotvori, nek' u Podzemlju zamuknu. (Sheol h7585)
18 Let the lying lips be made dumme, which cruelly, proudly and spitefully speake against the righteous.
Nek' zanijeme usne lažljive koje protiv pravednika govore drsko, oholo i prezirno.
19 Howe great is thy goodnesse, which thou hast layde vp for them, that feare thee! and done to them, that trust in thee, euen before the sonnes of men!
O, kako je velika, Jahve, tvoja dobrota, koju čuvaš za one koji te se boje, koju iskazuješ onima što se tebi utječu naočigled sinovima čovječjim.
20 Thou doest hide them priuily in thy presence from the pride of men: thou keepest them secretly in thy Tabernacle from the strife of tongues.
Zaklanjaš ih štitom lica svoga od zavjera ljudskih; u šatoru svom ih skrivaš od jezika svadljivih.
21 Blessed be the Lord: for hee hath shewed his marueilous kindenesse toward me in a strong citie.
Blagoslovljen Jahve jer me obasu čudesnom dobrotom u gradu tvrdom.
22 Though I said in mine haste, I am cast out of thy sight, yet thou heardest the voyce of my prayer, when I cryed vnto thee.
U tjeskobi svojoj već mišljah: “Odbačen sam od pogleda tvoga.” Ali ti si čuo glas mog zaziva dok sam tebi vapio.
23 Loue ye the Lord all his Saintes: for the Lord preserueth the faithfull, and rewardeth abundantly the proud doer.
Ljubite Jahvu, svi sveti njegovi: čuva Jahve svoje vjernike, a po zasluzi vraća onima koji postupaju oholo.
24 All ye that trust in the Lord, be strong, and he shall establish your heart.
Budite hrabri i jaka srca, svi koji se u Jahvu uzdate!
