Psalms 71

1 In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.

U tebe se, Gospode, uzdam, nemoj me ostaviti pod sramotom vjeènom.

2 Deliver me in Thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline Thine ear unto me, and save me.

Pravdom svojom izbavi me, i oprosti me, prigni k meni uho svoje i pomozi mi.

3 Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.

Budi mi grad gdje bih svagda dolazio da živim, uredi spasenje moje; jer si ti grad moj i krjepost moja.

4 O my God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.

Bože moj! uzmi me iz ruke bezbožnikove, iz ruke bezakonikove i nasilnikove.

5 For Thou art my hope; O Lord GOD, my trust from my youth.

Jer si ti nadanje moje, Gospod je Gospod pouzdanje moje od mladosti moje.

6 Upon Thee have I stayed myself from birth; Thou art He that took me out of my mother's womb; my praise is continually of Thee.

Tebe se držim od roðenja, od utrobe matere moje ti si braniè moj; tobom se hvalim svagda.

7 I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.

Èudo sam mnogima, a ti si utoèište moje jako.

8 My mouth shall be filled with Thy praise, and with Thy glory all the day.

Usta su moja puna hvale tvoje, slave tvoje svaki dan.

9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; when my strength faileth, forsake me not.

Nemoj me odbaciti pod starost, kad me izdaje snaga moja, nemoj me ostaviti.

10 For mine enemies speak concerning me, and they that watch for my soul take counsel together,

Jer neprijatelji moji misle o meni, i koji vrebaju dušu moju dogovaraju se,

11 Saying: 'God hath forsaken him; pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.'

Govoreæi: Bog ga je ostavio, potjerajte i uhvatite ga, jer ga nema ko izbaviti.

12 O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.

Bože! Ne budi daleko od mene; Bože moj! pohitaj mi u pomoæ.

13 Let them be ashamed and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and confusion that seek my hurt.

Nek se postide i poginu protivnici duše moje; neka popadne stid i sramota na one koji mi traže zla!

14 But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise Thee yet more and more.

A ja æu se svagda uzdati, i ponavljaæu hvale tebi.

15 My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

Usta æe moja kazivati pravdu tvoju, svaki dan dobroèinstva tvoja, jer im ne znam broja.

16 I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.

Uæi æu u sili Gospoda Gospoda, i slaviæu samo tvoju pravdu.

17 O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth; and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.

Bože! ti si me uèio od mladosti, i do danas kazujem èudesa tvoja.

18 And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.

Ni u starosti i kad osijedjeh nemoj me ostaviti, Bože, eda bih kazivao mišicu tvoju natražju, svoj omladini silu tvoju.

19 Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?

Pravda je tvoja, Bože, do najviše visine; u velikim djelima, koja si uèinio, Bože, ko je kao ti?

20 Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

Koliko si me puta bacao u velike i ljute nevolje, pak si me opet ostavio meðu živima i iz bezdana me zemaljskih opet izvadio.

21 Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me.

Mnogo si me puta podizao i ponavljao utjehe.

22 I also will give thanks unto Thee with the psaltery, even unto Thy truth, O my God; I will sing praises unto Thee with the harp, O Thou Holy One of Israel.

I ja te hvalim uz psaltir, tvoju vjernost, Bože moj; udaram ti u gusle, sveèe Izrailjev!

23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing praises unto Thee; and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed.

Raduju se usta moja kad pjevam tebi, i duša moja, koju si izbavio.

24 My tongue also shall tell of Thy righteousness all the day; for they are ashamed, for they are abashed, that seek my hurt.

I jezik moj svaki dan kazuje pravdu tvoju; jer su postiðeni i posramljeni koji mi traže zla.
