Psalmi 16
1 Èuvaj me, Bože; jer se u te uzdam.
A michtam of David. Keep me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2 Rekoh Gospodu: ti si Gospod moj, nemam dobra osim tebe.
I said to the Lord, “You are my Lord, my happiness rests in you alone.
3 U svetima koji su na zemlji i u velikima sva je utjeha moja.
Those who are holy in the land, they, they alone, are the noble ones; all my delight is in them.”
4 Neka drugi umnožavaju idole svoje, neka trèe k tuðima; ja im neæu ljevati krvavih naljeva, niti æu metnuti imena njihovijeh u usta svoja.
Those who choose other gods find endless sorrow. In their offerings of blood I will have no part nor take their name on my lips.
5 Gospod je moj dio našljedstva i èaše; ti podižeš dostojanje moje.
The Lord is my share and my portion, my fate is in your strong hands.
6 Uže mi je zahvatilo prekrasna mjesta, i dio mi je moj mio.
The boundary lines of my life mark out delightful country, my heritage pleases me well.
7 Blagosiljam Gospoda, koji me urazumljuje; tomu me i noæu uèi što je u meni.
I praise the Lord for his counsel, which so stirs my heart in the night.
8 Svagda vidim pred sobom Gospoda: on mi je s desne strane da ne posrnem.
I keep the Lord always in mind: with him at my hand, I can never be moved.
9 Toga radi raduje se srce moje, i veseli se jezik moj, još æe se i tijelo moje smiriti u uzdanju;
So my heart is glad, there is joy inside me; and in safety of body I live.
For you will not give me up to Sheol nor let any who love you see the pit. (Sheol h7585)
11 Pokazaæeš mi put životni: obilje je radosti pred licem tvojim, utjeha u desnici tvojoj dovijeka.
You will show me the path that leads to life, to that fulness of joy which is in your presence, and the pleasures dispensed by your hand evermore.
