< Psalmi 141 >
1 Psalam. Davidov. Prizivljem te, Jahve, k meni pohitaj! Slušaj glas moj kojim tebi vapijem!
A PSALM OF DAVID. O YHWH, I have called You, hurry to me, Give ear [to] my voice when I call to You.
2 Nek' mi se uzdigne molitva kao kad pred lice tvoje, podizanje mojih ruku nek' bude k'o prinos večernji!
My prayer is prepared—incense before You, The lifting up of my hands—the evening present.
3 Na usta mi, Jahve, stražu postavi i stražare na vrata usana mojih!
Set, O YHWH, a watch for my mouth, Watch over the door of my lips.
4 Ne daj da mi se srce zlu prikloni, da bezbožno počinim djela opaka; i u društvu zlotvora da ne blagujem poslastica njihovih!
Do not incline my heart to an evil thing, To habitually do actions in wickedness, Working iniquity with men, Indeed, I do not eat of their pleasant things.
5 Nek' me samo udari pravednik, ljubav je što me kara, al' ulje grešničko neće mi glavu pomazat'; zloći njihovoj oprijet ću se uvijek svojom molitvom.
The righteous beat me [in] kindness. And reprove me, My head does not disallow oil of the head, For my prayer [is] still about their distress.
6 Kad strovale niz hridinu suce njihove, razumjet će kako blage bjehu riječi moje.
Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.
7 Kao kad orač ore i para zemlju, tako će im se na rubu Podzemlja kosti rasuti. (Sheol )
As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul. (Sheol )
8 U te su, Jahve, uprte oči moje, k tebi se utječem, ne daj da mi duša propadne!
But to You, O YHWH, my Lord, [are] my eyes, In You I have trusted, Do not make my soul bare.
9 Čuvaj me od stupice koju postaviše meni, od zamki zločinaca!
Keep me from the trap they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.
10 Nek' u vlastite zamke upadnu zlotvori, a ja neka im umaknem!
The wicked fall in their dragnets together, until I pass over!
