Psalms 64

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. Hear my voice, God, listen to my complaint; preserve my life from fear of my enemies.

Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Poslušaj, Bože, moje žalbe glas; od strašna dušmanina život mi čuvaj!

2 Hide me from the secret plotting of evildoers, from the commotion of the doers of iniquity.

Štiti me od mnoštva opakih, sakrij od bjesnila zlotvora

3 They have sharpened their tongues like swords; they have aimed their arrows, bitter words,

koji bruse jezike k'o mačeve, otrovne riječi izbacuju kao strijele,

4 so that they may shoot from secret places at someone who is innocent; suddenly they shoot at him and fear nothing.

da iz potaje rane nedužna, da ga rane iznenada ne bojeć' se ničega.

5 They encourage themselves in an evil plan; they consult privately together in order to set traps; they say, “Who will see us?”

Spremni su na djelo pakosno, snuju kako će kradom zamke staviti i govore: “Tko će nas vidjeti?”

6 They invent sinful plans; “We have finished,” they say, “a careful plan.” The inner thoughts and hearts of man are deep.

Snuju zlodjela, smišljene osnove kriju: pamet i srce čovječje bezdan su duboki.

7 But God will shoot them; suddenly they will be wounded with his arrows.

No Bog ih ranjava strijelom, odjednom ih rane prekriju.

8 They will be made to stumble, since their own tongues are against them; all who see them will wag their heads.

Vlastiti jezik propast im donosi, kimaju glavom oni što ih vide:

9 All people will fear and will declare God's deeds. They will wisely think about what he has done.

svi se boje, Božje djelo slave i misle o onom što on učini.

10 The righteous will be glad about Yahweh and will take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will take pride in him.

Pravednik se raduje u Jahvi, njemu se utječe, i kliču svim srcem čestiti.
