Psalmi 59
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Ne pogubi!” Davidov. Miktam. Kad je Šaul opkolio kuću da ubije Davida. Izbavi me od dušmana, Bože moj, zaštiti me od mojih protivnika!
Unto the end. May you not destroy. Of David, with the inscription of a title, when Saul sent and watched his house, in order to execute him. Rescue me from my enemies, my God, and free me from those who rise up against me.
2 Izbavi me od bezakonika, od krvoloka spasi me!
Rescue me from those who work iniquity, and save me from men of blood.
3 Jer evo: dušu moju vrebaju, na me ustadoše silnici. Nema na meni krivnje, o Jahve, ni grijeha:
For behold, they have seized my soul. The strong have rushed upon me.
4 bez moje krivnje na me nasrću. Probudi se! Dođi mi u pomoć i pogledaj,
And it is neither my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord. I have run and gone directly, without iniquity.
5 Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, Bože Izraelov! Preni se, kazni sve pogane, podlacima nemoj se smilovati!
Rise up to meet me, and see: even you, O Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel. Reach out to visit all nations. Do not take pity on all those who work iniquity.
6 Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
They will return toward evening, and they will suffer hunger like dogs, and they will wander around the city.
7 Gle, kako bljuju ustima; kletve su im na usnama i govore: “Tko nas čuje?”
Behold, they will speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: “For who has heard us?”
8 No, ti im se smiješ, o Jahve, i rugaš se poganima svima.
And you, O Lord, will laugh at them. You will lead all the Gentiles to nothing.
9 Jakosti moja, gledat ću na te, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
I will guard my strength toward you, for you are God, my supporter.
10 Bog neka mi pohiti u susret, nek' me razveseli nad dušmanima mojim!
My God, his mercy will precede me.
11 Pobij ih, Bože, da mi narod ne zavode, zbuni i obori ih jakošću svojom, štite naš, Gospodine.
God will oversee my enemies for me. Do not slay them, lest at times my people may forget them. Scatter them by your virtue. And depose them, O Lord, my protector,
12 Grijeh je svaka riječ usta njihovih: nek se uhvate u svoju oholost, u kletve i laži što ih govore!
by the offense of their mouth and by the speech of their lips. And may they be caught in their arrogance. And, for their cursing and lying, they will be made known
13 Istrijebi ih u gnjevu, istrijebi da nestanu, nek' se zna da Bog vlada u Jakovu i do nakraj zemlje!
at the consummation, in the fury of the consummation, and so they will be no more. And they will know that God will rule over Jacob, even to the ends of the earth.
14 Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
They will return toward evening, and they will suffer hunger like dogs, and they will wander around the city.
15 Nek' lutaju okolo tražeći hranu; i kad se nasite, neka zavijaju.
They will be dispersed in order to gnaw, and truly, when they will not have been satisfied, they will murmur.
16 A ja ću opjevati silu tvoju i klicat ću jutrom milosrđu tvome, jer mi ti postade utočište i sklonište u dan nevolje.
But I will sing your strength, and I will extol your mercy, in the morning. For you have been my supporter and my refuge in the day of my tribulation.
17 Jakosti moja, tebi ću pjevati, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
To you, my helper, I will sing psalms. For you are God, my supporter. My God is my mercy.
