Psalms 38
1 “A psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.” O Lord, correct me not in thy wrath, nor chastise me in thy fury.
Psalam. Davidov. Za spomen. Jahve, u srdžbi svojoj nemoj ne karati, i nemoj me kazniti u svojemu gnjevu.
2 For thy arrows have penetrated into me, and thy hand presseth down upon me.
Strijele se tvoje u me zabodoše, ruka me tvoja teško pritisnu:
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thy indignation: there is no peace in my bones because of my sin.
na tijelu mi ništa zdravo nema zbog gnjeva tvog, od grijeha mojih mira mi nema kostima.
4 For my iniquities are passed over my head, as a heavy burden are they too heavy for me.
Zloće moje glavu su mi nadišle, kao preteško breme tište me.
5 Foul, corrupt are my bruises because of my folly.
Rane moje zaudaraju i gnjiju zbog bezumnosti moje.
6 I am bent double; I am bowed down to the utmost; all the day long I go about full of grief.
Pogurih se sav i zgrčih, povazdan lutam žalostan.
7 For my loins are filled with a burning disease, and there is no soundness in my flesh.
Moji bokovi puni su ognjice, na tijelu mi ništa zdravo nema.
8 I am made faint and crushed to the utmost; I cry aloud because of the groaning of my heart.
Iscrpljen sam i satrven posve, stenjem od jecanja srca svojega.
9 Lord, before thee is all my longing; and my sighing is from thee not hidden.
O Gospode, sve su mi želje pred tobom, i vapaji moji nisu ti skriveni.
10 My heart is restless, my strength hath left me; and the light of my eyes—that also is no more with me.
Srce mi udara silno, snaga me ostavlja i svjetlost vida očinjeg gasi se.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
Prijatelji i drugovi od rana mojih uzmakoše, i moji najbliži stoje daleko.
12 They also that seek after my life lay snares; and they that wish for my mishap speak wicked falsehoods; and deceits do they devise all the day long.
Namještaju mi zamke oni koji mi život vrebaju, koji mi žele nesreću, propašću mi prijete i uvijek smišljaju prijevare.
13 But I, as a deaf man, hear not; and I am as a dumb man that cannot open his mouth.
A ja sam kao gluh i ništa ne čujem i, kao nijem, usta ne otvaram.
14 Thus am I as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no words of defence.
Postadoh k'o čovjek koji ne čuje i koji u ustima nema odgovora.
15 For in thee, O Lord, do I hope: thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.
Jer u tebe se, o Jahve, uzdam, ti ćeš me uslišati, Jahve, Bože moj!
16 For I said, Perhaps they might rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they might magnify themselves over me.
Rekoh: “Nek' se ne raduju nada mnom; kad mi noga posrne, nek' se ne uzdižu nada mnom!”
17 For I am prepared for [my] downfall, and my pain is continually before me.
Jer umalo ne propadoh, i moja je bol svagda preda mnom.
18 For I will tell of my iniquity; I will be grieved because of my sin.
Bezakonje svoje ja priznajem i pun sam žalosti zbog grijeha svojega.
19 But my enemies are strong in life; and numerous are those that hate me wrongfully;
A koji su bez razloga protiv mene, moćni su, i mnogi su koji me mrze nepravedno.
20 They also that repay [me] evil in lieu of good; they hate me bitterly because I pursue what is good.
Za dobro zlom mi uzvraćaju, protive mi se što tražim dobro.
21 Forsake me not, O Lord: O my God, be not far from me.
O Jahve, ne ostavljaj me! Bože moj, ne udaljuj se od mene!
22 Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation.
Požuri se meni u pomoć, Gospode, spase moj!
