< Psalms 58 >
1 To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme of David on Michtam. Is it true? O Congregation, speake ye iustly? O sonnes of men, iudge ye vprightly?
Govorite li zaista istinu, silni, sudite li pravo, sinovi èovjeèiji?
2 Yea, rather ye imagine mischiefe in your heart: your hands execute crueltie vpon the earth.
Ta, bezakonja sastavljate u srcu, meæete na mjerila zloèinstva ruku svojih na zemlji.
3 The wicked are strangers from ye wombe: euen from the belly haue they erred, and speake lyes.
Od samoga roðenja zastraniše bezakonici, od utrobe materine tumaraju govoreæi laž.
4 Their poyson is euen like the poyson of a serpent: like ye deafe adder that stoppeth his eare.
U njima je jed kao jed zmijinji, kao gluhe aspide, koja zatiskuje uho svoje,
5 Which heareth not the voyce of the inchanter, though he be most expert in charming.
Koja ne èuje glasa bajaèu, vraèaru, vještu u vraèanju.
6 Breake their teeth, O God, in their mouthes: breake the iawes of the yong lions, O Lord.
Bože! polomi im zube u ustima njihovijem; razbij èeljusti lavovima, Gospode!
7 Let them melt like the waters, let them passe away: when hee shooteth his arrowes, let them be as broken.
Nek se proliju kao voda, i nestane ih. Kad puste strijele, neka budu kao slomljene.
8 Let them consume like a snayle that melteth, and like the vntimely fruite of a woman, that hath not seene the sunne.
Kao puž, koji se rašèinja, neka išèile; kao dijete, koje žena pobaci, neka ne vide sunca.
9 As raw flesh before your pots feele the fire of thornes: so let him cary them away as with a whirlewinde in his wrath.
Prije nego kotlovi vaši osjete toplotu od potpaljena trnja, i sirovo i nagorjelo neka raznese vihor.
10 The righteous shall reioyce when he seeeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feete in the blood of the wicked.
Obradovaæe se pravednik kad vidi osvetu, opraæe noge svoje u krvi bezbožnikovoj.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruite for the righteous: doutlesse there is a God that iudgeth in the earth.
I reæi æe ljudi: zaista ima ploda pravedniku! zaista je Bog sudija na zemlji!
