Psalms 63
1 A Melody of David. When he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, my GOD, thou art, Earnestly do I desire thee, —My soul thirsteth for thee, My flesh fainteth for thee, In a land—dry, and weary for want of water, —
Psalam. Davidov. Dok David bijaše u Judejskoj pustinji. O Bože, ti si Bog moj: gorljivo tebe tražim; tebe žeđa duša moja, tebe želi tijelo moje, kao zemlja suha, žedna, bezvodna.
2 In like manner as, in the sanctuary, I have had vision of thee, To behold thy power and thy glory.
U Svetištu sam tebe motrio gledajuć' ti moć i slavu.
3 Because better is thy lovingkindness than life, My lips, aloud shall praise thee!
Ljubav je tvoja bolja od života, moje će te usne slavit'.
4 Thus, will I bless thee while I live, In thy Name, will I lift up mine outspread hands:
Tako ću te slavit' za života, u tvoje ću ime ruke dizati.
5 As with fatness and richness, shall my soul be satisfied, And, with joyfully shouting lips, shall my mouth utter praise.
Duša će mi biti kao sala i mrsa sita, hvalit ću te kliktavim ustima.
6 Should I call thee to mind upon my couch, In the watches of the night, would I breathe soft speech of thee.
Na postelji se tebe spominjem, u bdjenjima noćnim mislim na tebe.
7 For thou hast become a help unto me, —And, in the shadow of thy wings, will I shout for joy.
Ti postade meni pomoć, kličem u sjeni krila tvojih.
8 My soul hath run clinging to thee, On me, hath thy right hand laid hold.
Duša se moja k tebi privija, desnica me tvoja drži.
9 When, they, to crush it, would seek my life, They shall go into the lower parts of the earth:
Oni što dušu u propast guraju neka siđu u dubinu zemlje,
10 Every one shall be given up into the power of the sword, The portion of jackals, shall they become.
nek' vlasti mača predani budu, nek' postanu plijen šakalima.
11 But, the king, shall rejoice in God, —Every one shall glory who sweareth by him, For the mouth of them who speak falsehood, shall be stopped.
A kralj će se radovat' u Bogu, slavit će se tko se kune njime, jer će lašcima biti začepljena usta.
