Psalms 61

1 “To the chief musician upon Neginah, by David.” Hear, O God, my entreaty; listen to my prayer.

Zborovođi. Uza žičana glazbala. Davidov. O Bože, vapaj mi poslušaj, budi pomnjiv na molitvu moju!

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is too high for me.

S kraja zemlje vapijem k tebi jer mi srce klonu. Dignut ćeš me na liticu i pokoj mi dati,

3 For thou hast been a shelter unto me, a strong tower against the enemy.

jer ti si moje sklonište, utvrda čvrsta protiv dušmana.

4 Let me sojourn in thy tent to all eternity; let me be sheltered under the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

O, da mi je stanovati uvijek u tvom šatoru, da se sklanjat' mogu pod okrilje tvoje!

5 For thou, O God, hast truly listened to my vows: thou hast given back the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Jer ti, Bože, usliši molbe moje, dade mi baštinu onih što ime ti štuju.

6 Oh, add days unto the king's days: may his years be as of many generations.

Kraljevim danima pridometni danÄa, kroz koljena mnoga nek' mu ljeta traju,

7 May he abide for ever before God: ordain that kindness and truth may guard him.

nek' pred Bogom uvijek vlada; dobrotu i vjernost pošalji da ga čuvaju!

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may pay my vows day by day.

Ovako ću pjevat svagda tvom imenu, dan za danom vršit' zavjete svoje.
