Psalmi 139
1 Zborovođi. Davidov. Jahve, proničeš me svega i poznaješ,
O lord, you have searched me, and known me.
2 ti znaš kada sjednem i kada ustanem, izdaleka ti već misli moje poznaješ.
You know my sitting down and my rising up, you understand my thought afar off.
3 Hodam li ili ležim, sve ti vidiš, znani su ti svi moji putovi.
You compass my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 Riječ mi još nije na jezik došla, a ti, Jahve, sve već znadeš.
For there is not a word in my tongue, but, see, O LORD, you know it altogether.
5 S leđa i s lica ti me obuhvaćaš, na mene si ruku svoju stavio.
You have beset me behind and before, and laid your hand on me.
6 Znanje to odveć mi je čudesno, previsoko da bih ga dokučio.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain to it.
7 Kamo da idem od duha tvojega i kamo da od tvog lica pobjegnem?
Where shall I go from your spirit? or where shall I flee from your presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, you are there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, you are there. (Sheol h7585)
9 Uzmem li krila zorina pa se naselim moru na kraj
If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 i ondje bi me ruka tvoja vodila, desnica bi me tvoja držala.
Even there shall your hand lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.
11 Reknem li: “Nek' me barem tmine zakriju i nek' me noć umjesto svjetla okruži!” -
If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
12 ni tmina tebi neće biti tamna: noć sjaji kao dan i tama kao svjetlost.
Yes, the darkness hides not from you; but the night shines as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to you.
13 Jer ti si moje stvorio bubrege, satkao me u krilu majčinu.
For you have possessed my reins: you have covered me in my mother’s womb.
14 Hvala ti što sam stvoren tako čudesno, što su djela tvoja predivna. Dušu moju do dna si poznavao,
I will praise you; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are your works; and that my soul knows right well.
15 kosti moje ne bjehu ti sakrite dok nastajah u tajnosti, otkan u dubini zemlje.
My substance was not hid from you, when I was made in secret, and curiously worked in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Oči tvoje već tada gledahu djela moja, sve već bješe zapisano u knjizi tvojoj: dani su mi određeni dok još ne bješe ni jednoga.
Your eyes did see my substance, yet being imperfect; and in your book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
17 Kako su mi, Bože, naumi tvoji nedokučivi, kako li je neprocjenjiv zbroj njihov.
How precious also are your thoughts to me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18 Da ih brojim? Više ih je nego pijeska! Dođem li im do kraja, ti mi preostaješ!
If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with you.
19 De, istrijebi, Bože, zlotvora, krvoloci nek' odstupe od mene!
Surely you will slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, you bloody men.
20 Jer podmuklo se bune protiv tebe, uzalud se dižu tvoji dušmani.
For they speak against you wickedly, and your enemies take your name in vain.
21 Jahve, zar da ne mrzim tvoje mrzitelje? Zar da mi se ne gade protivnici tvoji?
Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate you? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against you?
22 Mržnjom dubokom ja ih mrzim i držim ih svojim neprijateljima.
I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them my enemies.
23 Pronikni me svega, Bože, srce mi upoznaj, iskušaj me i upoznaj misli moje:
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24 pogledaj, ne idem li putem pogubnim i povedi me putem vječnim!
And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
