Psalms 59
1 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Ne pogubi!” Davidov. Miktam. Kad je Šaul opkolio kuću da ubije Davida. Izbavi me od dušmana, Bože moj, zaštiti me od mojih protivnika!
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
Izbavi me od bezakonika, od krvoloka spasi me!
3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
Jer evo: dušu moju vrebaju, na me ustadoše silnici. Nema na meni krivnje, o Jahve, ni grijeha:
4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
bez moje krivnje na me nasrću. Probudi se! Dođi mi u pomoć i pogledaj,
5 You therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. (Selah)
Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, Bože Izraelov! Preni se, kazni sve pogane, podlacima nemoj se smilovati!
6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, does hear?
Gle, kako bljuju ustima; kletve su im na usnama i govore: “Tko nas čuje?”
8 But you, O LORD, shall laugh at them; you shall have all the heathen in derision.
No, ti im se smiješ, o Jahve, i rugaš se poganima svima.
9 Because of his strength will I wait upon you: for God is my defence.
Jakosti moja, gledat ću na te, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.
Bog neka mi pohiti u susret, nek' me razveseli nad dušmanima mojim!
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by your power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
Pobij ih, Bože, da mi narod ne zavode, zbuni i obori ih jakošću svojom, štite naš, Gospodine.
12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
Grijeh je svaka riječ usta njihovih: nek se uhvate u svoju oholost, u kletve i laži što ih govore!
13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God rules in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. (Selah)
Istrijebi ih u gnjevu, istrijebi da nestanu, nek' se zna da Bog vlada u Jakovu i do nakraj zemlje!
14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
15 Let them wander up and down for food, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
Nek' lutaju okolo tražeći hranu; i kad se nasite, neka zavijaju.
16 But I will sing of your power; yea, I will sing aloud of your mercy in the morning: for you have been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
A ja ću opjevati silu tvoju i klicat ću jutrom milosrđu tvome, jer mi ti postade utočište i sklonište u dan nevolje.
17 Unto you, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
Jakosti moja, tebi ću pjevati, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
