Psalms 32

1 [A Psalm] of David, Maschil. Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.

Davidov. Poučna pjesma. Blažen onaj kome je grijeh otpušten, kome je zločin pokriven!

2 Blessed [is] the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.

Blago čovjeku kome Jahve ne ubraja krivnju i u čijemu duhu nema prijevare!

3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

Prešutjet' sam htio, al' kosti mi klonuše od neprestana jecanja.

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. (Selah)

Danju i noću ruka me tvoja tištala, snaga mi se trošila k'o za ljetnih žega.

5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)

Tad grijeh svoj tebi priznah i krivnju svoju više ne skrivah. Rekoh: “Priznat ću Jahvi prijestup svoj”, i ti si mi krivnju grijeha oprostio.

6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.

Zato nek' ti se moli pobožnik svaki u času nevolje. Kad bujice silne navale, njega neće stići.

7 Thou [art] my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. (Selah)

Utočište ti si moje, od tjeskobe ti ćeš me sačuvat', odjenut' me radošću spasenja.

8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Učit ću te, put ti kazat' kojim ti je ići, svjetovat ću te, oko će moje bdjeti nad tobom.

9 Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

Ne budite kao konj ili mazga bez razuma: divljinu im krotiš vođicama i uzdom, inače im se ne primiči!

10 Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

Bezbožnika taru mnoge nevolje, a tko se uzda u Jahvu, njega okružuje milost.

11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all [ye that are] upright in heart.

Radujte se Jahvi i kličite, pravedni, kličite svi koji ste srca čestita!
