< Psalms 41 >

1 Blessed is he that considers the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Blago onome koji misli na uboga i slaba: u dan nevolje Jahve će ga spasiti!
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and you will not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
Jahve će ga štititi i živa sačuvati, sreću mu dati na zemlji i neće ga predati na volju dušmanima.
3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: you will make all his bed in his sickness.
Jahve će ga ukrijepiti na postelji boli, bolest mu okrenuti u snagu.
4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.
Zavapih: “Jahve, smiluj mi se, iscijeli mi dušu jer tebi sagriješih!”
5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
Neprijatelji zlo govore o meni: “Kad će umrijeti i kad će mu nestati imena?”
6 And if he comes to see me, he speaks vanity: his heart gathers iniquity to itself; when he goes abroad, he tells it.
I dođe li tko da me posjeti, himbeno govori, u srcu pakosti skuplja i vani opada.
7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
Mrzitelji moji svi složno šapuću o meni; zlo mi dosuđuju:
8 An evil disease, say they, cleaves fast unto him: and now that he lies he shall rise up no more.
“Pogubna se pošast na nj oborila.” Ili: “Tko jednom leže, više ne ustaje.”
9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
Pa i prijatelj moj u koga se uzdah, koji blagovaše kruh moj, petu na me podiže.
10 But you, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
A ti, Jahve, smiluj se meni i podigni me da im mogu uzvratiti.
11 By this I know that you favour me, because mine enemy does not triumph over me.
Po tome ću znati da sam mio tebi: što se dušmanin moj neće veseliti nada mnom.
12 And as for me, you uphold me in mine integrity, and set me before your face for ever.
A mene ćeš zdrava uzdržati i pred svoje me lice staviti dovijeka.
13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, od vijeka do vijeka! Tako neka bude! Amen!
