Psalmi 58

1 Govorite li zaista istinu, silni, sudite li pravo, sinovi èovjeèiji?

To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

2 Ta, bezakonja sastavljate u srcu, meæete na mjerila zloèinstva ruku svojih na zemlji.

Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.

3 Od samoga roðenja zastraniše bezakonici, od utrobe materine tumaraju govoreæi laž.

The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

4 U njima je jed kao jed zmijinji, kao gluhe aspide, koja zatiskuje uho svoje,

Their poison [is] like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder [that] stoppeth her ear;

5 Koja ne èuje glasa bajaèu, vraèaru, vještu u vraèanju.

Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

6 Bože! polomi im zube u ustima njihovijem; razbij èeljusti lavovima, Gospode!

Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.

7 Nek se proliju kao voda, i nestane ih. Kad puste strijele, neka budu kao slomljene.

Let them melt away as waters [which] run continually: [when] he bendeth [his bow to shoot] his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.

8 Kao puž, koji se rašèinja, neka išèile; kao dijete, koje žena pobaci, neka ne vide sunca.

As a snail [which] melteth, let [every one of them] pass away: [like] the untimely birth of a woman, [that] they may not see the sun.

9 Prije nego kotlovi vaši osjete toplotu od potpaljena trnja, i sirovo i nagorjelo neka raznese vihor.

Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in [his] wrath.

10 Obradovaæe se pravednik kad vidi osvetu, opraæe noge svoje u krvi bezbožnikovoj.

The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

11 I reæi æe ljudi: zaista ima ploda pravedniku! zaista je Bog sudija na zemlji!

So that a man shall say, Verily [there is] a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
