Psalms 44
1 [For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. A contemplative psalm.] We have heard with our ears, God; our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the days of old.
Bože, svojim ušima slušasmo, oci nam naši pripovijedaše djelo koje si uèinio u njihovo vrijeme, u staro vrijeme.
2 You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.
Rukom svojom izgnao si narode, a njih posadio; iskorijenio si plemena, a njih namnožio.
3 For they did not get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.
Jer ne zadobiše zemlje svojim maèem, niti im mišica njihova pomože, nego tvoja desnica i tvoja mišica, i svjetlost lica tvojega, jer ti bijahu omiljeli.
4 You are my King, my God, who commands victories for Jacob.
Bože, care moj, ti si onaj isti, pošlji pomoæ Jakovu!
5 Through you we will push back our adversaries. Through your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.
S tobom æemo izbosti neprijatelje svoje, i s imenom tvojim izgaziæemo one koji ustaju na nas.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
Jer se ne uzdam u luk svoj, niti æe mi maè moj pomoæi.
7 But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
Nego æeš nas ti izbaviti od neprijatelja našijeh, i nenavidnike naše posramiæeš.
8 In God we have made our boast all day long, we will give thanks to your name forever. (Selah)
Bogom æemo se hvaliti svaki dan, i ime tvoje slaviæemo dovijeka.
9 But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and do not go out with our armies.
Ali sad si nas povrgao i posramio, i ne ideš s vojskom našom.
10 You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take spoil for themselves.
Obraæaš nas te bježimo ispred neprijatelja, i neprijatelji nas naši haraju.
11 You have made us like sheep for food, and have scattered us among the nations.
Dao si nas kao ovce da nas jedu, i po narodima rasijao si nas.
12 You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.
U bescjenje si prodao narod svoj, i nijesi mu podigao cijene.
13 You make us the taunt of our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.
Dao si nas na potsmijeh susjedima našijem, da nam se rugaju i sramote nas koji žive oko nas.
14 You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
Naèinio si od nas prièu u naroda, gledajuæi nas mašu glavom tuðinci.
15 All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,
Svaki je dan sramota moja preda mnom, i stid je popao lice moje
16 At the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.
Od rijeèi potsmjevaèevih i rugaèevih, i od pogleda neprijateljevih i osvetljivèevih.
17 All this has come on us, yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant.
Sve ovo snaðe nas; ali ne zaboravismo tebe, niti prestupismo zavjeta tvojega.
18 Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,
Ne otstupi natrag srce naše, i stope naše ne zaðoše s puta tvojega.
19 Though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
Kad si nas bio u zemlji zmajevskoj, i pokrivao nas sjenom smrtnijem,
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
Onda da bijasmo zaboravili ime Boga svojega i podigli ruke svoje k Bogu tuðemu,
21 won't God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
Ne bi li Bog iznašao to? Jer on zna tajne u srcu.
22 For your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.
A ubijaju nas za tebe svaki dan; s nama postupaju kao s ovcama klanicama.
23 Wake up. Why do you sleep, LORD? Arise. Do not reject us forever.
Ustani, što spavaš, Gospode! Probudi se, nemoj odbaciti zasvagda.
24 Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?
Zašto kriješ lice svoje? zaboravljaš nevolju i muku našu?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body cleaves to the earth.
Duša naša pade u prah, tijelo je naše baèeno na zemlju.
26 Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your loving kindness' sake.
Ustani, pomoæi naša, i izbavi nas radi milosti svoje.
