< Psalms 3 >

1 [A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] LORD, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise up against me.
Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom. Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
2 Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no salvation for him in God." (Selah)
Mnogi su što o meni zbore: “Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!”
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
4 I cried out to the LORD with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (Selah)
Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
5 I lay down and slept. I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.
Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
6 I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
7 Arise, LORD. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break the teeth of the wicked.
Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
8 Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
