Psalms 143
1 A psalm of David. Hear my prayer, Yahweh; listen to my pleas. Because of your faithfulness and righteousness, answer me!
Psalam. Davidov. Jahve, slušaj moju molitvu, u vjernosti svojoj prikloni uho mojim vapajima, u pravednosti me svojoj usliši!
2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no one is righteous.
Ne idi na sud sa slugom svojim, jer nitko živ nije pravedan pred tobom!
3 The enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed me to the ground; he has made me to live in darkness like those who have been dead a long time.
Dušmanin mi dušu progoni, o zemlju pritisnu život moj; u tmine me baci da stanujem kao oni koji su davno umrli.
4 My spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart despairs.
Duh moj već zamire u meni, srce mi trne u grudima.
5 I call to mind the old days; I meditate on all your deeds; I reflect on your accomplishments.
Spominjem se dana minulih, mislim o svim djelima tvojim, o djelima ruku tvojih razmišljam.
6 I spread my hands out to you; my soul thirsts for you in a parched land. (Selah)
Ruke svoje za tobom pružam, duša moja k'o suha zemlja za tobom žeđa.
7 Answer me quickly, Yahweh, because my spirit faints. Do not hide your face from me, or I will become like those who go down into the pit.
Usliši me brzo, o Jahve, dah moj već je na izmaku! Lica svojeg preda mnom ne skrivaj, da ne postanem kao oni koji u grob silaze!
8 Let me hear your covenant faithfulness in the morning, for I trust in you. Show me the way where I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
Objavi mi jutrom dobrotu svoju jer se uzdam u tebe. Put mi kaži kojim ću krenuti jer k tebi dušu uzdižem.
9 Rescue me from my enemies, Yahweh; I flee to you to hide.
Izbavi me, Jahve, od mojih dušmana, tebi ja se utječem.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your good Spirit lead me in the land of uprightness.
Nauči me da vršim volju tvoju jer ti si Bog moj. Duh tvoj dobri nek' me po ravnu putu vodi!
11 Yahweh, for your name's sake, keep me alive; in your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
Zbog imena svog, Jahve, poživi me, zbog svoje pravednosti dušu mi izvedi iz tjeskobe!
12 In your covenant faithfulness cut off my enemies and destroy all the enemies of my life, for I am your servant.
Po svojoj dobroti satri moje dušmane, uništi sve moje tlačitelje, jer ja sam sluga tvoj!
