Psalmi 41

1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Blago onome koji misli na uboga i slaba: u dan nevolje Jahve će ga spasiti!

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed [is] he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.

2 Jahve će ga štititi i živa sačuvati, sreću mu dati na zemlji i neće ga predati na volju dušmanima.

The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; [and] he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

3 Jahve će ga ukrijepiti na postelji boli, bolest mu okrenuti u snagu.

The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.

4 Zavapih: “Jahve, smiluj mi se, iscijeli mi dušu jer tebi sagriješih!”

I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

5 Neprijatelji zlo govore o meni: “Kad će umrijeti i kad će mu nestati imena?”

Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

6 I dođe li tko da me posjeti, himbeno govori, u srcu pakosti skuplja i vani opada.

And if he come to see [me], he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; [when] he goeth abroad, he telleth [it].

7 Mrzitelji moji svi složno šapuću o meni; zlo mi dosuđuju:

All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.

8 “Pogubna se pošast na nj oborila.” Ili: “Tko jednom leže, više ne ustaje.”

An evil disease, [say they], cleaveth fast unto him: and [now] that he lieth he shall rise up no more.

9 Pa i prijatelj moj u koga se uzdah, koji blagovaše kruh moj, petu na me podiže.

Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up [his] heel against me.

10 A ti, Jahve, smiluj se meni i podigni me da im mogu uzvratiti.

But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

11 Po tome ću znati da sam mio tebi: što se dušmanin moj neće veseliti nada mnom.

By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

12 A mene ćeš zdrava uzdržati i pred svoje me lice staviti dovijeka.

And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.

13 Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, od vijeka do vijeka! Tako neka bude! Amen!

Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
