Psalms 58
1 To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme of David on Michtam. Is it true? O Congregation, speake ye iustly? O sonnes of men, iudge ye vprightly?
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Ne pogubi!” Davidov. Miktam. Zar doista krojite pravdu, vi moćni, zar sudite pravo, sinovi ljudski?
2 Yea, rather ye imagine mischiefe in your heart: your hands execute crueltie vpon the earth.
Ne, već bezakonje smišljeno činite, po zemlji vam ruke dijele nepravde.
3 The wicked are strangers from ye wombe: euen from the belly haue they erred, and speake lyes.
Na krivu su putu bezbošci od krila majčina, na krivu su putu lašci od utrobe.
4 Their poyson is euen like the poyson of a serpent: like ye deafe adder that stoppeth his eare.
U njima je otrov kao u zmije, kao u ljutice što uši začepljuje
5 Which heareth not the voyce of the inchanter, though he be most expert in charming.
da glas čarobnjakov ne čuje ni glas bajača vješta bajanju.
6 Breake their teeth, O God, in their mouthes: breake the iawes of the yong lions, O Lord.
O Bože, polomi im zube u ustima; razbij, o Jahve, čeljusti lavićima!
7 Let them melt like the waters, let them passe away: when hee shooteth his arrowes, let them be as broken.
K'o vode što hitro otječu neka se razliju, k'o zgažena trava neka se osuše.
8 Let them consume like a snayle that melteth, and like the vntimely fruite of a woman, that hath not seene the sunne.
Nek' budu k'o puž koji se pužuć' rastoči, k'o pometnut plot nek' sunca ne vide.
9 As raw flesh before your pots feele the fire of thornes: so let him cary them away as with a whirlewinde in his wrath.
Prije nego vam kotlovi trnje osjete, dok je zeleno, neka ga vihor odnese.
10 The righteous shall reioyce when he seeeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feete in the blood of the wicked.
Radostan će biti pravednik kad ugleda odmazdu, noge će prati u krvi zlotvora.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruite for the righteous: doutlesse there is a God that iudgeth in the earth.
I reći će ljudi: “Pravednik plod svoj ima! Još ima Boga da sudi na zemlji!”
