< Psalms 73 >

1 A Psalme committed to Asaph. Yet God is good to Israel: euen, to the pure in heart.
Ta dobar je Bog Izrailju, onima koji su èista srca.
2 As for me, my feete were almost gone: my steps had well neere slipt.
A noge moje umalo ne zaðoše, umalo ne popuznuše stopala moja,
3 For I feared at the foolish, when I sawe the prosperitie of the wicked.
Jer se rasrdih na bezumnike videæi kako bezbožnici dobro žive.
4 For there are no bandes in their death, but they are lustie and strong.
Jer ne znaju za nevolju do same smrti, i tijelo je njihovo pretilo.
5 They are not in trouble as other men, neither are they plagued with other men.
Na poslovima èovjeèijim nema ih, i ne muèe se s drugim ljudima.
6 Therefore pride is as a chayne vnto them, and crueltie couereth them as a garment.
Toga radi optoèeni su ohološæu kao ogrlicom, i obuèeni u obijest kao u stajaæe ruho.
7 Their eyes stande out for fatnesse: they haue more then heart can wish.
Od debljine izbuljeno im je oko, srce puno klape.
8 They are licentious, and speake wickedly of their oppression: they talke presumptuously.
Potsmijevaju se, pakosno govore o nasilju, oholo govore.
9 They set their mouth against heauen, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
Usta svoja dižu u nebo, i zemlju prolazi jezik njihov.
10 Therefore his people turne hither: for waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
I zato se onamo navraæaju neki iz naroda njegova, i piju vodu iz puna izvora.
11 And they say, Howe doeth God know it? or is there knowledge in the most High?
I govore: kako æe razabrati Bog? zar višnji zna?
12 Lo, these are the wicked, yet prosper they alway, and increase in riches.
Pa eto, ovi bezbožnici sreæni na svijetu umnožavaju bogatstvo.
13 Certainely I haue clensed mine heart in vaine, and washed mine hands in innocencie.
Zar dakle uzalud èistim srce svoje, i umivam bezazlenošæu ruke svoje,
14 For dayly haue I bene punished, and chastened euery morning.
Dopadam rana svaki dan, i muke svako jutro?
15 If I say, I will iudge thus, beholde the generation of thy children: I haue trespassed.
Kad bih kazao: govoriæu kao i oni, iznevjerio bih rod sinova tvojih.
16 Then thought I to know this, but it was too painefull for me,
I tako stadoh razmišljati da bih ovo razumio; ali to bješe teško u oèima mojima.
17 Vntill I went into the Sanctuarie of God: then vnderstoode I their ende.
Dok najposlije uðoh u svetinju Božiju, i doznah kraj njihov.
18 Surely thou hast set them in slipperie places, and castest them downe into desolation.
Ta na klizavom mjestu postavio si ih, i bacaš ih u propast!
19 How suddenly are they destroyed, perished and horribly consumed,
Kako zaèas propadaju, ginu, nestaje ih od nenadne strahote!
20 As a dreame when one awaketh! O Lord, when thou raisest vs vp, thou shalt make their image despised.
Kao san, kad se èovjek probudi, tako probudivši ih, Gospode, u ništa obraæaš utvaru njihovu.
21 Certainely mine heart was vexed, and I was pricked in my reines:
Kad kipljaše srce moje i rastrzah se u sebi,
22 So foolish was I and ignorant: I was a beast before thee.
Tada bijah neznalica i ne razumijevah; kao živinèe bijah pred tobom.
23 Yet I was alway with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
Ali sam svagda kod tebe, ti me držiš za desnu ruku.
24 Thou wilt guide me by thy counsell, and afterward receiue me to glory.
Po svojoj volji vodiš me, i poslije æeš me odvesti u slavu.
25 Whom haue I in heauen but thee? and I haue desired none in the earth with thee.
Koga imam na nebu? i s tobom nièega neæu na zemlji.
26 My flesh fayleth and mine heart also: but God is the strength of mine heart, and my portion for euer.
Èezne za tobom tijelo moje i srce moje; Bog je grad srca mojega i dio moj dovijeka.
27 For loe, they that withdrawe themselues from thee, shall perish: thou destroyest all them that goe a whoring from thee.
Jer evo koji otstupiše od tebe, ginu; ti istrebljavaš svakoga koji èini preljubu ostavljajuæi tebe.
28 As for me, it is good for me to draw neere to God: therefore I haue put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all thy workes.
A meni je dobro biti blizu Boga. Na Gospoda polažem nadanje svoje, i kazivaæu sva èudesa tvoja.
