Psalms 32

1 A Psalme of David to give instruction. Blessed is he whose wickednes is forgiuen, and whose sinne is couered.

Davidov. Poučna pjesma. Blažen onaj kome je grijeh otpušten, kome je zločin pokriven!

2 Blessed is the man, vnto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquitie, and in whose spirite there is no guile.

Blago čovjeku kome Jahve ne ubraja krivnju i u čijemu duhu nema prijevare!

3 When I helde my tongue, my bones consumed, or when I roared all the day,

Prešutjet' sam htio, al' kosti mi klonuše od neprestana jecanja.

4 (For thine hand is heauie vpon me, day and night: and my moysture is turned into ye drought of summer. (Selah)

Danju i noću ruka me tvoja tištala, snaga mi se trošila k'o za ljetnih žega.

5 Then I acknowledged my sinne vnto thee, neither hid I mine iniquitie: for I thought, I will confesse against my selfe my wickednesse vnto the Lord, and thou forgauest the punishment of my sinne. (Selah)

Tad grijeh svoj tebi priznah i krivnju svoju više ne skrivah. Rekoh: “Priznat ću Jahvi prijestup svoj”, i ti si mi krivnju grijeha oprostio.

6 Therefore shall euery one, that is godly, make his prayer vnto thee in a time, when thou mayest be founde: surely in the flood of great waters they shall not come neere him.

Zato nek' ti se moli pobožnik svaki u času nevolje. Kad bujice silne navale, njega neće stići.

7 Thou art my secret place: thou preseruest me from trouble: thou compassest me about with ioyfull deliuerance. (Selah)

Utočište ti si moje, od tjeskobe ti ćeš me sačuvat', odjenut' me radošću spasenja.

8 I will instruct thee, and teache thee in the way that thou shalt goe, and I will guide thee with mine eye.

Učit ću te, put ti kazat' kojim ti je ići, svjetovat ću te, oko će moje bdjeti nad tobom.

9 Be ye not like an horse, or like a mule, which vnderstand not: whose mouthes thou doest binde with bit and bridle, least they come neere thee.

Ne budite kao konj ili mazga bez razuma: divljinu im krotiš vođicama i uzdom, inače im se ne primiči!

10 Many sorowes shall come to the wicked: but he, that trusteth in the Lord, mercie shall compasse him.

Bezbožnika taru mnoge nevolje, a tko se uzda u Jahvu, njega okružuje milost.

11 Be glad ye righteous, and reioyce in the Lord, and be ioyfull all ye, that are vpright in heart.

Radujte se Jahvi i kličite, pravedni, kličite svi koji ste srca čestita!
