< Psalmi 31 >
1 U tebe se, Gospode, uzdam; nemoj me ostaviti pod sramotom dovijeka, po pravdi svojoj izbavi me.
To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. In thee, O Yahweh, have I sought refuge, Let me not be ashamed to times age-abiding, In thy righteousness, deliver me:
2 Prigni k meni uho svoje, pohitaj, pomozi mi. Budi mi kameni grad, tvrda ograda, gdje bih se spasao.
Incline unto me, thine ear, Speedily rescue me, —Become to me a Rock of refuge, a Place of security, For saving me.
3 Jer si ti kamena gora moja i ograda moja, imena svojega radi vodi me i upravljaj mnom.
Because, my mountain crag and my stronghold, thou art, Therefore, for the sake of thine own Name, wilt thou lead me and guide me?
4 Izvadi me iz mreže, koju mi tajno zamjestiše; jer si ti krjepost moja.
Wilt thou bring me forth, out of the net which they have hidden for me? For, thou, art my refuge.
5 U tvoju ruku predajem duh svoj; izbavljao si me, Gospode, Bože istini!
Into thy hand, do I commit my spirit—Thou hast ransomed me, O Yahweh, GOD most faithful.
6 Nenavidim one koji poštuju propadljive idole; ja se u Gospoda uzdam.
I hate such as give heed to false vanities, I, then, in Yahweh, have set my hope.
7 Radovaæu se i veseliti se o milosti tvojoj, kad pogledaš na moju muku, poznaš tugu duše moje,
I will indeed exult and rejoice, in thy lovingkindness, —In that thou hast looked upon my humiliation, thou hast taken note that in distresses was my life;
8 Ne daš me u ruku neprijatelju, postaviš noge moje na prostranom mjestu.
And hast not shut me up in the hand of the foe, Thou hast given standing, in a roomy place, unto my feet.
9 Smiluj se na me, Gospode; jer me je tuga, od jada iznemože oko moje, duša moja i srce moje.
Show me favour, O Yahweh, for in distress am I, —Wasted with vexation, is mine eye—my soul and my body;
10 Išèilje u žalosti život moj, i godine moje u uzdisanju; oslabi od muke krjepost moja, i kosti moje sasahnuše.
For, consumed with sorrow, is my life, and my years with sighing, —My strength hath staggered with my humiliation, and, my bones, are without marrow.
11 Od množine neprijatelja svojih postadoh potsmijeh i susjedima svojim, i strašilo znancima svojim; koji me vide na ulici, bježe od mene.
By reason of all mine adversaries, have I become a reproach. Even to my neighbours, altogether, and a dread to mine acquaintance, —They who have seen me abroad, have fled from me:
12 Zaboravljen sam kao mrtav, nema me u srcima; ja sam kao razbijen sud.
I have been forgotten, like one dead—out of mind, I have been as a missing vessel.
13 Jer slušam grdnju od mnogih, otsvuda strah, kad se dogovaraju na me, misle išèupati dušu moju.
For I have heard the whispering of many—A terror round about! When they have sat in conclave together against me, to take away my life, have they intrigued.
14 A ja se, Gospode, u tebe uzdam i velim: ti si Bog moj.
I, therefore. in thee, have put my trust, O Yahweh, I have said, My God, thou art!
15 U tvojoj su ruci dani moji; otmi me iz ruku neprijatelja mojijeh, i od onijeh, koji me gone.
In thy hand, are my times, Rescue me from the hand of my foes and from my pursuers!
16 Pokaži svijetlo lice svoje sluzi svojemu; spasi me milošæu svojom.
Cause thy face to shine upon thy servant, Save me in thy lovingkindness.
17 Gospode! nemoj me ostaviti pod sramotom; jer tebe prizivljem. Nek se posrame bezbožnici, neka zamuknu i padnu u pakao. (Sheol )
O Yahweh! let me not be ashamed, For I have called upon thee, Let the lawless be ashamed, Go down in silence to hades! (Sheol )
18 Neka onijeme usta lažljiva, koja govore na pravednika obijesno, oholo i s porugom.
Let false lips be made dumb, —which are speaking—against a righteous one—arrogantly, with pride and contempt.
19 Kako je mnogo u tebe dobra, koje èuvaš za one koji te se boje, i koje daješ onima koji se u te uzdaju pred sinovima èovjeèijim!
How great is thy goodness, which thou hast hidden away for them who revere thee, —Thou hast wrought for them who seek refuge in thee, in sight of the sons of men.
20 Sakrivaš ih pod krov lica svojega od buna ljudskih; sklanjaš ih pod sjen od svadljivijeh jezika.
Thou wilt conceal them, in the secrecy of thine own presence, from the conspiracies of men, —Thou wilt hide them in a pavilion, from the strife of tongues.
21 Da je blagosloven Gospod, što mi pokaza divnu milost kao da me uvede u tvrd grad!
Blessed be Yahweh, for he hath made wonderful his lovingkindness for me, in a fortified city.
22 Ja rekoh u smetnji svojoj: odbaèen sam od oèiju tvojijeh; ali ti èu molitveni glas moj, kad te prizvah.
But, I, had said in mine alarm, I am cut off from before thine eyes, —But, indeed, thou didst hear the voice of my supplication, when I cried for help unto thee.
23 Ljubite Gospoda svi sveti njegovi; Gospod drži vjeru; i uvršeno vraæa onima koji postupaju oholo.
Love Yahweh, all ye his men of lovingkindness, —Faithfulness, doth Yahweh observe, but repayeth abundantly him that worketh proudly.
24 Budite slobodni, i neka bude jako srce vaše, svi koji se u Gospoda uzdate.
Be strong, and let your heart be bold, all ye who are waiting for Yahweh.
