Psalms 61

1 [For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.] Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

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

2 From the most remote place of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

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

3 For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

jer ti si moje sklonište, utvrda čvrsta protiv dušmana.

4 I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

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

5 For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

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

6 You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations.

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

7 He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

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

8 So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows day after day.

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