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!
TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN SAUL’S SENDING, AND THEY WATCH THE HOUSE TO PUT HIM TO DEATH. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God, Set me on high from my withstanders.
2 Izbavi me od bezakonika, od krvoloka spasi me!
Deliver me from workers of 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 laid wait for my soul, Strong ones are assembled against me, Not my transgression nor my sin, O YHWH.
4 bez moje krivnje na me nasrću. Probudi se! Dođi mi u pomoć i pogledaj,
Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, Stir up to meet me, and see.
5 Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, Bože Izraelov! Preni se, kazni sve pogane, podlacima nemoj se smilovati!
And You, YHWH, God of Hosts, God of Israel, Awake to inspect all the nations. Do not favor any treacherous dealers of iniquity. (Selah)
6 Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
They return at evening, They make a noise like a dog, And go around the city.
7 Gle, kako bljuju ustima; kletve su im na usnama i govore: “Tko nas čuje?”
Behold, they belch out with their mouths, Swords [are] in their lips, for “Who hears?”
8 No, ti im se smiješ, o Jahve, i rugaš se poganima svima.
And You, O YHWH, laugh at them, You mock at all the nations.
9 Jakosti moja, gledat ću na te, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
O my Strength, to You I take heed, For God [is] my tower—the God of my kindness.
10 Bog neka mi pohiti u susret, nek' me razveseli nad dušmanima mojim!
God goes before me, He causes me to look on my enemies.
11 Pobij ih, Bože, da mi narod ne zavode, zbuni i obori ih jakošću svojom, štite naš, Gospodine.
Do not slay them, lest my people forget, Shake them by Your strength, And bring them down, O Lord our shield.
12 Grijeh je svaka riječ usta njihovih: nek se uhvate u svoju oholost, u kletve i laži što ih govore!
The sin of their mouth [is] a word of their lips, And they are captured in their pride, And they recount from the curse and lying.
13 Istrijebi ih u gnjevu, istrijebi da nestanu, nek' se zna da Bog vlada u Jakovu i do nakraj zemlje!
Consume in fury, consume and they are not, And they know that God is ruling in Jacob, To the ends of the earth. (Selah)
14 Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
And they return at evening, They make a noise like a dog, And they go around the city.
15 Nek' lutaju okolo tražeći hranu; i kad se nasite, neka zavijaju.
They wander for food, If they are not satisfied—then they murmur.
16 A ja ću opjevati silu tvoju i klicat ću jutrom milosrđu tvome, jer mi ti postade utočište i sklonište u dan nevolje.
And I sing of Your strength, And at morning I sing of Your kindness, For You have been a tower to me, And a refuge for me in a day of adversity.
17 Jakosti moja, tebi ću pjevati, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
O my Strength, I sing praise to You, For God [is] my tower, the God of my kindness!
