Psalmi 63

1 Bože! ti si Bog moj, k tebi ranim, žedna je tebe duša moja, za tobom èezne tijelo moje u zemlji suhoj, žednoj i bezvodnoj.

A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. God, you are my God! I earnestly search for you, my soul thirsts for you, and my flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

2 Tako bih te ugledao u svetinji, da bih vidio silu tvoju i slavu tvoju.

So I have looked on you in the sanctuary, to see your power and your glory.

3 Jer je dobrota tvoja bolja od života. Usta bi moja hvalila tebe;

Because your covenant faithfulness is better than life, my lips will praise you.

4 Tako bih te blagosiljao za života svoga, u ime tvoje podigao bih ruke svoje.

So I will bless you while I live; I will lift up my hands in your name.

5 Kao salom i uljem nasitila bi se duša moja, i radosnijem glasom hvalila bi te usta moja.

It will be as if I ate a meal of marrow and fatness; with joyful lips my mouth will praise you,

6 Kad te se sjeæam na postelji, sve noæne straže razmišljam o tebi.

when I think about you on my bed and meditate on you in the night hours.

7 Jer si ti pomoæ moja, i u sjenu krila tvojih veselim se.

For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.

8 Duša se moja prilijepila za tebe, desnica tvoja drži me.

I cling to you; your right hand supports me.

9 Koji traže pogibao duši mojoj, oni æe otiæi pod zemlju.

But those who seek to destroy my life will go down into the lowest parts of the earth;

10 Izginuæe od maèa, i dopašæe lisicama.

they will be given over to those whose hands use the sword, and they will become food for the jackals.

11 A car æe se veseliti o Bogu, hvaliæe se svaki koji se kune njim, kad se zatisnu usta onima koji govore laž.

But the king will rejoice in God; everyone who swears by him will be proud of him, but the mouth of those who speak lies will be stopped up.
