Psalmi 28

1 Davidov. K tebi, o Jahve, vapijem, hridino moja, ne ogluši se na me: da neuslišan ne postanem kao oni koji u grob silaze.

A psalm of David. To you, Yahweh, I cry out; my rock, do not ignore me. If you do not respond to me, I will join those who go down to the grave.

2 Čuj moje zazivanje dok tebi vapijem, dok ruke uzdižem svetomu Hramu tvojem.

Hear the sound of my pleading when I call for help from you, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy place!

3 Ne uzmi me s bezbožnicima i s onima koji čine bezakonje, koji govore slatko s bližnjima a u srcu im je pakost.

Do not drag me away with the wicked, those who do iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors but have evil in their hearts.

4 Daj im po djelima njihovim i po zloći njihovih nedjela! Po djelu ruku njihovih plati im, uzvrati im po njihovoj zasluzi!

Give them what their deeds deserve and repay them what their wickedness demands, repay them for the work of their hands and render to them their due.

5 Jer ne mare za čine Jahvine ni za djelo ruku njegovih: nek' ih obori i više ne podigne!

Because they do not understand the deeds of Yahweh or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and never rebuild them.

6 Blagoslovljen Jahve što usliša zazivanje moje! Jahve mi je zaklon, on štit je moj.

Blessed be Yahweh because he has heard the sound of my pleading!

7 U njega se srce moje pouzdalo i pomoć mi dođe; zato mi kliče srce i pjesmom njega slavim.

Yahweh is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and I will praise him with singing.

8 Jahve je jakost narodu svome, tvrđava spasa svom pomazaniku.

Yahweh is the strength of his people, and he is the saving refuge of his anointed one.

9 Spasi narod svoj i blagoslovi svoju baštinu, pasi ih i nosi ih dovijeka!

Save your people and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
