Psalmi 61

1 Zborovođi. Uza žičana glazbala. Davidov. O Bože, vapaj mi poslušaj, budi pomnjiv na molitvu moju!

Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

2 S kraja zemlje vapijem k tebi jer mi srce klonu. Dignut ćeš me na liticu i pokoj mi dati,

From the end of the earth will I cry to you, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 jer ti si moje sklonište, utvrda čvrsta protiv dušmana.

For you have been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 O, da mi je stanovati uvijek u tvom šatoru, da se sklanjat' mogu pod okrilje tvoje!

I will abide in your tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of your wings. (Selah)

5 Jer ti, Bože, usliši molbe moje, dade mi baštinu onih što ime ti štuju.

For you, O God, have heard my vows: you have given me the heritage of those that fear your name.

6 Kraljevim danima pridometni danÄa, kroz koljena mnoga nek' mu ljeta traju,

You will prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.

7 nek' pred Bogom uvijek vlada; dobrotu i vjernost pošalji da ga čuvaju!

He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

8 Ovako ću pjevat svagda tvom imenu, dan za danom vršit' zavjete svoje.

So will I sing praise to your name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
