Psalmi 27

1 Gospod je vidjelo moje i spasenje moje; koga da se bojim? Gospod je krjepost života mojega; koga da se strašim?

“A psalm of David.” The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the shield of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?

2 Ako navale na me zlikovci da pojedu tijelo moje, protivnici i neprijatelji moji, spotaæi æe se i pašæe.

When the wicked came upon me to devour me, Even my persecutors and enemies, they stumbled and fell.

3 Ako protiv mene vojska u oko stane, neæe se uplašiti srce moje; ako se na me rat digne, ja se ni onda neæu bojati.

Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; Though war should rise against me, yet will I be confident.

4 Za jedno samo molim Gospoda, samo to ištem, da živim u domu Gospodnjem sve dane života svojega, da gledam krasotu Gospodnju i ranim u crkvu njegovu.

One thing have I desired of the LORD; that do I yet seek; That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the grace of the LORD, And to gaze upon his temple.

5 Jer bi me sakrio u kolibi svojoj u zlo doba; sklonio bi me pod krovom šatora svojega; na kamenu goru popeo bi me.

For in the day of trouble he will hide me in his pavilion; Yea, in the secret place of his tabernacle will he shelter me; He will set me upon a rock.

6 Tada bih podigao glavu svoju pred neprijateljima koji bi me opkolili; prinio bih u njegovu šatoru žrtvu hvale; zapjevao bih i hvalio Gospoda.

Yea, already doth he lift my head above my enemies, who are around me; Therefore in his tabernacle will I offer sacrifices with the sound of trumpets; I will sing, yea, with instruments of music I will give praise to the LORD.

7 Èuj, Gospode, glas moj, tebe prizivljem, smiluj se na me i usliši me.

Hear my voice, O LORD! when I cry unto thee; Have pity upon me, and answer me!

8 Srce moje govori pred tobom što si rekao: “tražite lice moje”; tražim lice tvoje, Gospode!

When I think of thy precept, “Seek ye my face!” Thy face, LORD, do I seek.

9 Nemoj odvratiti od mene lica svojega, nemoj u gnjevu ostaviti sluge svojega; budi pomoænik moj; nemoj me odbiti, i nemoj me ostaviti, Bože, spasitelju moj!

O hide not thou thy face from me; Cast not thy servant away in displeasure! Thou hast been my help, do not leave me; Do not forsake me, O God, my helper!

10 Jer otac moj i mati moja ostaviše me; ali Gospod neka me prihvati.

For my father and my mother have forsaken me; But the LORD will take me up.

11 Uputi me, Gospode, na put svoj i vodi me pravom stazom poradi onijeh koji me vrebaju.

Teach me thy way, O LORD! And lead me in the right path, because of my enemies!

12 Nemoj me dati na volju neprijateljima mojim; jer ustaše na me lažni svjedoci; ali zloba govori sama protiv sebe.

Give me not up to the will of my adversaries! For false witnesses have risen up against me, And such as breathe out injustice.

13 Vjerujem da æu vidjeti dobrotu Gospodnju na zemlji živijeh.

I trust that I shall see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living. Hope thou in the LORD!

14 Uzdaj se u Gospoda, budi slobodan; neka bude srce tvoje krjepko, uzdaj se u Gospoda.

Be of good courage; let thy heart be strong; Hope thou in the LORD!
