Psalms 5

1 [For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David.] Listen to my words, LORD. Consider my (meditation)

Zborovođi. Uz frule. Psalam. Davidov. Čuj, o Jahve, riječi moje, jecaje moje razaberi!

2 Give attention to the voice of my cry, my King and my God; for to you do I pray.

Osvrni se na glas mog prizivanja, o Kralju moj i Bože moj, jer tebe vruće zazivam!

3 LORD, in the morning you shall hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and watch.

Jahve, zorom glas mi već čuješ, zorom ti već lijem molitve u nadi čekajuć'.

4 For you are not a God who desires wickedness. Evil can't live with you.

Jer ti nisi Bog kom je nepravda mila: zlobniku nema boravka s tobom,

5 The arrogant shall not stand in your sight. You hate all evildoers.

opaki ne mogu opstati pred tvojim pogledom. Mrziš sve što čine bezakonje

6 You will destroy those who speak lies. The LORD despises a person of bloodshed and deceit.

i uništavaš lažljivce. Varalica i krvopija Jahvi se gadi.

7 But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will enter into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.

Po velikoj dobroti tvojoj unići ću u Dom tvoj; past ću ničice pred svetim Domom tvojim, Jahve, prepun poštovanja.

8 Lead me, LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way straight before me.

U svojoj me pravdi vodi poradi mojih dušmana, svoj put mi poravnaj pred očima.

9 For there is nothing reliable in their mouth. Their heart is destruction. Their throat is an open tomb; with their tongues they flatter.

U njihovim ustima iskrenosti nema, srce im je puno zloće; grlo im je grob otvoren, a jezikom laskaju.

10 Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Cast them out because of the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.

Kazni ih, o Bože! Nek' propadnu oni i osnove njine, otjeraj ih zbog mnogih nedjela njihovih; tÓa oni se digoše na tebe.

11 But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them. And let those who love your name be joyful in you.

Nek' se raduju svi što se utječu tebi, neka kliču sve dovijeka! Štiti ih i nek se vesele u tebi koji ljube ime tvoje,

12 For you bless the righteous, LORD. You surround him with favor like a shield.

jer pravednika, Jahve, ti blagoslivljaš, dobrotom ga svojom k'o štitom zaklanjaš.
