Psalms 51

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID, IN THE COMING OF NATHAN THE PROPHET TO HIM WHEN HE HAS GONE IN TO BATHSHEBA. Favor me, O God, according to Your kindness, According to the abundance of Your mercies, Blot out my transgressions.

Smiluj se na me, Bože, po milosti svojoj, i po velikoj dobroti svojoj oèisti bezakonje moje.

2 Thoroughly wash me from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin,

Operi me dobro od bezakonja mojega, i od grijeha mojega oèisti me.

3 For I know my transgressions, And my sin [is] continually before me.

Jer ja znam prijestupe svoje, i grijeh je moj jednako preda mnom.

4 Against You, You only, I have sinned, And done evil in Your eyes, So that You are righteous in Your words, You are pure in Your judging.

Samome tebi zgriješih, i na tvoje oèi zlo uèinih, a ti si pravedan u rijeèima svojim i èist u sudu svojem.

5 Behold, I have been brought forth in iniquity, And my mother conceives me in sin.

Gle, u bezakonju rodih se, i u grijehu zatrudnje mati moja mnom.

6 Behold, You have desired truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You cause me to know Wisdom.

Gle, istinu ljubiš u srcu, i iznutra javljaš mi mudrost.

7 You cleanse me with hyssop and I am clean, Wash me, and I am whiter than snow.

Pokropi me isopom, i oèistiæu se; umij me, i biæu bjelji od snijega.

8 You cause me to hear joy and gladness, You make bones You have bruised joyful.

Daj mi da slušam radost i veselje, da se prenu kosti koje si potro.

9 Hide Your face from my sin. And blot out all my iniquities.

Odvrati lice svoje od grijeha mojih, i sva bezakonja moja oèisti.

10 Create for me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right spirit within me.

Uèini mi, Bože, èisto srce, i duh prav ponovi u meni.

11 Do not cast me forth from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.

Nemoj me odvrgnuti od lica svojega, i svetoga duha svojega nemoj uzeti od mene.

12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And a willing spirit sustains me.

Vrati mi radost spasenja svojega, i duh vladalaèki neka me potkrijepi.

13 I teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners return to You.

Nauèiæu bezakonike putovima tvojim, i grješnici k tebi æe se obratiti.

14 Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue sings of Your righteousness.

Izbavi me od krvi, Bože, Bože, spasitelju moj, i jezik æe moj glasiti pravdu tvoju.

15 O Lord, you open my lips, And my mouth declares Your praise.

Gospode! otvori usta moja, i ona æe kazati hvalu tvoju.

16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or I give [it], You do not accept burnt-offering.

Jer žrtve neæeš: ja bih je prinio; za žrtve paljenice ne mariš.

17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, You do not despise.

Žrtva je Bogu duh skrušen, srca skrušena i poništena ne odbacuješ, Bože.

18 Do good in Your good pleasure with Zion, You build the walls of Jerusalem.

Po dobroti svojoj, Gospode, èini dobro Sionu, podigni zidove Jerusalimske.

19 Then You desire sacrifices of righteousness, Burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering, Then they offer bullocks on your altar!

Onda æe ti biti mile žrtve pravde, prinosi i žrtve paljenice; onda æe metati na žrtvenik tvoj teoce.
