< Psalms 27 >
1 [By David.] Jehovah is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the stronghold of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
Gospod je vidjelo moje i spasenje moje; koga da se bojim? Gospod je krjepost života mojega; koga da se strašim?
2 When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
Ako navale na me zlikovci da pojedu tijelo moje, protivnici i neprijatelji moji, spotaæi æe se i pašæe.
3 Though an army is deployed against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
Ako protiv mene vojska u oko stane, neæe se uplašiti srce moje; ako se na me rat digne, ja se ni onda neæu bojati.
4 One thing I have asked of Jehovah, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, to see Jehovah's beauty, and to inquire in his temple.
Za jedno samo molim Gospoda, samo to ištem, da živim u domu Gospodnjem sve dane života svojega, da gledam krasotu Gospodnju i ranim u crkvu njegovu.
5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.
Jer bi me sakrio u kolibi svojoj u zlo doba; sklonio bi me pod krovom šatora svojega; na kamenu goru popeo bi me.
6 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Jehovah.
Tada bih podigao glavu svoju pred neprijateljima koji bi me opkolili; prinio bih u njegovu šatoru žrtvu hvale; zapjevao bih i hvalio Gospoda.
7 Hear, Jehovah, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
Èuj, Gospode, glas moj, tebe prizivljem, smiluj se na me i usliši me.
8 My heart said of you, "Seek his face." Your face, Jehovah, I will seek.
Srce moje govori pred tobom što si rekao: “tražite lice moje”; tražim lice tvoje, Gospode!
9 Do not hide your face from me. Do not put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
Nemoj odvratiti od mene lica svojega, nemoj u gnjevu ostaviti sluge svojega; budi pomoænik moj; nemoj me odbiti, i nemoj me ostaviti, Bože, spasitelju moj!
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then Jehovah will take me up.
Jer otac moj i mati moja ostaviše me; ali Gospod neka me prihvati.
11 Teach me your way, Jehovah. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.
Uputi me, Gospode, na put svoj i vodi me pravom stazom poradi onijeh koji me vrebaju.
12 Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out violence.
Nemoj me dati na volju neprijateljima mojim; jer ustaše na me lažni svjedoci; ali zloba govori sama protiv sebe.
13 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living.
Vjerujem da æu vidjeti dobrotu Gospodnju na zemlji živijeh.
14 Wait for Jehovah. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Jehovah.
Uzdaj se u Gospoda, budi slobodan; neka bude srce tvoje krjepko, uzdaj se u Gospoda.
