Psalms 59
1 To the chief music-maker; put to At-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. When Saul sent, and they were watching the house, to put him to death. Take me out of the hands of the cruel ones, O my God; keep me safe from those who come up against me.
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!
2 Take me out of the power of the workers of evil, and keep me safe from the men of blood.
Izbavi me od bezakonika, od krvoloka spasi me!
3 For see, they are watching in secret for my soul; the strong have come together against me? but not because of my sin, or my evil-doing, O Lord.
Jer evo: dušu moju vrebaju, na me ustadoše silnici. Nema na meni krivnje, o Jahve, ni grijeha:
4 For no sin of mine they go quickly and get themselves ready; be awake and come to my help, and see.
bez moje krivnje na me nasrću. Probudi se! Dođi mi u pomoć i pogledaj,
5 You, O Lord God of armies, are the God of Israel; come now and give punishment to the nations; have no mercy on any workers of deceit. (Selah)
Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, Bože Izraelov! Preni se, kazni sve pogane, podlacima nemoj se smilovati!
6 They come back in the evening; they make a noise like a dog, and go round the town.
Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
7 See, hate is dropping from their lips; curses are on their tongues: they say, Who gives attention to it?
Gle, kako bljuju ustima; kletve su im na usnama i govore: “Tko nas čuje?”
8 But you are laughing at them, O Lord; you will make sport of all the nations.
No, ti im se smiješ, o Jahve, i rugaš se poganima svima.
9 O my strength, I will put my hope in you; because God is my strong tower.
Jakosti moja, gledat ću na te, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
10 The God of my mercy will go before me: God will let me see my desire effected on my haters.
Bog neka mi pohiti u susret, nek' me razveseli nad dušmanima mojim!
11 Put them not to death, for so my people will keep the memory of them: let them be sent in all directions by your power; make them low, O Lord our saviour.
Pobij ih, Bože, da mi narod ne zavode, zbuni i obori ih jakošću svojom, štite naš, Gospodine.
12 Because of the sin of their mouths and the word of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; and for their curses and their deceit,
Grijeh je svaka riječ usta njihovih: nek se uhvate u svoju oholost, u kletve i laži što ih govore!
13 Put an end to them in your wrath, put an end to them, so that they may not be seen again; let them see that God is ruling in Jacob and to the ends of the earth. (Selah)
Istrijebi ih u gnjevu, istrijebi da nestanu, nek' se zna da Bog vlada u Jakovu i do nakraj zemlje!
14 And in the evening let them come back, and make a noise like a dog, and go round the town.
Uvečer se vraćaju, reže poput pasa i trče po gradu.
15 Let them go wandering up and down in search of food, and be there all night if they have not enough.
Nek' lutaju okolo tražeći hranu; i kad se nasite, neka zavijaju.
16 But I will make songs of your power; yes, I will give cries of joy for your mercy in the morning; because you have been my strength and my high tower in the day of my trouble.
A ja ću opjevati silu tvoju i klicat ću jutrom milosrđu tvome, jer mi ti postade utočište i sklonište u dan nevolje.
17 To you, O my strength, will I make my song: because God is my high tower, even the God of my mercy.
Jakosti moja, tebi ću pjevati, jer ti si, Bože, zaštita moja, Bog moj, milosrđe moje.
