Psalms 52

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid to giue instruction. When Doeg the Edomite came and shewed Saul, and saide to him, Dauid is come to the house of Abimelech. Why boastest thou thy selfe in thy wickednesse, O man of power? the louing kindenesse of God indureth dayly.

Što se hvališ nevaljalstvom, silni? Milost je Božija svaki dan sa mnom.

2 Thy tongue imagineth mischiefe, and is like a sharpe rasor, that cutteth deceitfully.

Nepravdu izmišlja jezik tvoj; on je u tebe kao britva naoštrena, lukavi!

3 Thou doest loue euill more then good, and lies more then to speake the trueth. (Selah)

Voliš zlo nego dobro, voliš lagati nego istinu govoriti.

4 Thou louest all wordes that may destroye, O deceitfull tongue!

Ljubiš svakojake rijeèi od pogibli, i jezik lukav.

5 So shall God destroy thee for euer: he shall take thee and plucke thee out of thy tabernacle, and roote thee out of ye land of the liuing. (Selah)

Toga radi Bog æe te poraziti sasvijem, izbaciæe te i išèupaæe te iz stana, i korijen tvoj iz zemlje živijeh.

6 The righteous also shall see it, and feare, and shall laugh at him, saying,

Vidjeæe pravednici i pobojaæe se, i potsmijevaæe mu se:

7 Beholde the man that tooke not God for his strength, but trusted vnto the multitude of his riches, and put his strength in his malice.

Gle èovjeka koji ne držaše u Bogu krjeposti svoje, nego se uzdaše u velièinu bogatstva svojega i utvrðivaše se zloæom svojom.

8 But I shall bee like a greene oliue tree in the house of God: for I trusted in the mercie of God for euer and euer.

A ja, kao maslina zelena u domu Gospodnjem, uzdam se u milost Božiju bez prestanka i dovijeka.

9 I will alway praise thee, for that thou hast done this, and I will hope in thy Name, because it is good before thy Saints.

Dovijeka æu hvaliti tebe, jer dobro èiniš, i uzdaæu se u ime tvoje; jer si dobar k svecima svojim.
