< Psalms 3 >

1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom. Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah)
Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
4 I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
7 Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. (Selah)
U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
