Psalms 143
1 Hear my prayer, O Jehovah. Give ear to my supplications. In thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
Psalam. Davidov. Jahve, slušaj moju molitvu, u vjernosti svojoj prikloni uho mojim vapajima, u pravednosti me svojoj usliši!
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant. For in thy sight no man living is righteous.
Ne idi na sud sa slugom svojim, jer nitko živ nije pravedan pred tobom!
3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul. He has smitten my life down to the ground. He has made me to dwell in dark places as those who have been long dead.
Dušmanin mi dušu progoni, o zemlju pritisnu život moj; u tmine me baci da stanujem kao oni koji su davno umrli.
4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
Duh moj već zamire u meni, srce mi trne u grudima.
5 I remember the days of old. I meditate on all thy doings. I muse on the work of thy hands.
Spominjem se dana minulih, mislim o svim djelima tvojim, o djelima ruku tvojih razmišljam.
6 I spread forth my hands to thee. My soul is as a weary land for thee. (Selah)
Ruke svoje za tobom pružam, duša moja k'o suha zemlja za tobom žeđa.
7 Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah, my spirit fails. Hide not thy face from me, lest I become like those who go down into the pit.
Usliši me brzo, o Jahve, dah moj već je na izmaku! Lica svojeg preda mnom ne skrivaj, da ne postanem kao oni koji u grob silaze!
8 Cause me to hear thy loving kindness in the morning, for in thee do I trust. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to thee.
Objavi mi jutrom dobrotu svoju jer se uzdam u tebe. Put mi kaži kojim ću krenuti jer k tebi dušu uzdižem.
9 Deliver me, O Jehovah, from my enemies. I flee to thee to hide me.
Izbavi me, Jahve, od mojih dušmana, tebi ja se utječem.
10 Teach me to do thy will, for thou are my God. Thy Spirit is good, lead me in the land of uprightness.
Nauči me da vršim volju tvoju jer ti si Bog moj. Duh tvoj dobri nek' me po ravnu putu vodi!
11 Revive me, O Jehovah, for thy name's sake. In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
Zbog imena svog, Jahve, poživi me, zbog svoje pravednosti dušu mi izvedi iz tjeskobe!
12 And in thy loving kindness cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, for I am thy servant.
Po svojoj dobroti satri moje dušmane, uništi sve moje tlačitelje, jer ja sam sluga tvoj!
