< Psalmi 94 >

1 Bože od osvete, Gospode, Bože od osvete, pokaži se!
O LORD, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth.
2 Podigni se, sudijo zemaljski, podaj zaslugu oholima.
Rise up, O Judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud.
3 Dokle æe se bezbožnici, Gospode, dokle æe se bezbožnici hvaliti?
How long will the wicked, O LORD, how long will the wicked exult?
4 Ruže i oholo govore, velièaju se svi koji èine bezakonje.
They pour out arrogant words; all workers of iniquity boast.
5 Gaze narod tvoj, Gospode, i dostojanje tvoje muèe.
They crush Your people, O LORD; they oppress Your heritage.
6 Udovicu i došljaka ubijaju, i sirote more.
They kill the widow and the foreigner; they murder the fatherless.
7 I govore: neæe vidjeti Gospod, i neæe doznati Bog Jakovljev.
They say, “The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob pays no heed.”
8 Orazumite se, preludi ljudi! budale! kad æete biti pametni?
Take notice, O senseless among the people! O fools, when will you be wise?
9 Koji je stvorio uho, zar ne èuje? i koji je oko naèinio, zar ne vidi?
He who affixed the ear, can He not hear? He who formed the eye, can He not see?
10 Zar neæe oblièiti koji narode urazumljuje, koji uèi èovjeka da zna?
He who admonishes the nations, does He not discipline? He who teaches man, does He lack knowledge?
11 Gospod zna misli ljudima kako su ništave.
The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
12 Blago èovjeku koga ti, Gospode, urazumljuješ, i zakonom svojim uèiš;
Blessed is the man You discipline, O LORD, and teach from Your law,
13 Da bi mu dao mir u zle dane, dok se iskopa jama bezbožniku.
to grant him relief from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 Jer neæe odbaciti Gospod naroda svojega, i dostojanja svojega neæe ostaviti.
For the LORD will not forsake His people; He will never abandon His heritage.
15 Jer æe se sud vratiti na pravdu, i njega æe naæi svi prava srca.
Surely judgment will again be righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16 Ko æe ustati za mene suprot zlima? ko æe stati za mene suprot onima koji èine bezakonje?
Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 Kad mi Gospod ne bi bio pomoænik, brzo bi se duša moja preselila onamo gdje se muèi.
Unless the LORD had been my helper, I would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence.
18 Kad reèem: drkæe mi noga, milost tvoja, Gospode, prihvata me.
If I say, “My foot is slipping,” Your loving devotion, O LORD, supports me.
19 Kad se umnože brige u srcu mom, utjehe tvoje razgovaraju dušu moju.
When anxiety overwhelms me, Your consolation delights my soul.
20 Eda li æe blizu tebe stati prijesto krvnièki, i onaj koji namišlja nasilje nasuprot zakonu?
Can a corrupt throne be Your ally— one devising mischief by decree?
21 Spremaju se na dušu pravednikovu, i krv pravu okrivljuju.
They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
22 Ali je Gospod moje pristanište, i Bog je moj tvrdo utoèište moje.
But the LORD has been my stronghold, and my God is my rock of refuge.
23 On æe im vratiti za bezakonje njihovo, za njihovu zloæu istrijebiæe ih, istrijebiæe ih Gospod, Bog naš.
He will bring upon them their own iniquity and destroy them for their wickedness. The LORD our God will destroy them.
