Psalmi 56
1 Zborovođi. Prema napjevu “Golubica nijema u daljini”. Davidov. Miktam. Kad su ga u Gatu uhitili Filistejci. Smiluj mi se, moj Bože, jer me dušmanin hoće zgaziti, napadač me moj neprestano tlači.
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “A SILENT DOVE FAR OFF.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN THE PHILISTINES’ TAKING HOLD OF HIM IN GATH. Favor me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresses me,
2 Dušmani moji nasrću na me povazdan, mnogo ih je koji se na me obaraju. Svevišnji,
My enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O Most High,
3 kad me strah spopadne, u te ću se uzdati.
[In] the day I am afraid I am confident toward You.
4 Božje obećanje slavim, u Boga ja se uzdam i neću se bojati: što mi može učiniti smrtnik?
In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I do not fear what flesh does to me.
5 Od jutra do večeri obružuju me, svi naumi njihovi meni su na zlo.
All the day they wrest my words, All their thoughts [are] for evil concerning me,
6 Sastaju se i vrebaju, paze mi na korake, o glavi mi rade.
They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.
7 Plati im prema bezakonju, u gnjevu, o Bože, obori pogane!
They escape by iniquity, In anger put down the peoples, O God.
8 Ti izbroji dane mog progonstva, sabrao si suze moje u mijehu svom. Nije li sve zapisano u knjizi tvojoj?
You have counted my wandering, You place my tear in Your bottle, Are they not in Your scroll?
9 Moji će dušmani uzmaknuti čim te zazovem. Ovo sigurno znam: Bog je za mene!
Then turn back my enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.
10 Božje obećanje slavim,
In God I praise the word, In YHWH I praise the word.
11 u Jahvu se uzdam i neću se bojati: što mi može učiniti čovjek?
In God I trusted, I do not fear what man does to me,
12 Vežu me zavjeti koje učinih tebi, o Bože: prinijet ću ti žrtve zahvalne
On me, O God, [are] Your vows, I repay thank-offerings to You.
13 jer si mi dušu od smrti spasio. Ti si očuvao noge moje od pada, da pred Bogom hodim u svjetlosti živih.
For You have delivered my soul from death, Do You not [keep] my feet from falling? To habitually walk before God in the light of the living!
