Psalms 16
1 Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
Miktam. Davidov. Čuvaj me, Bože, jer se tebi utječem.
2 O my soul, you have said to the LORD, You are my Lord: my goodness extends not to you;
Jahvi rekoh: “Ti si moj gospodar, nema mi blaženstva bez tebe!”
3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
Za svetima što su u zemlji sav plamtim od čežnje!
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
Gomilaju patnje moje koji slijede bogove tuđe. Ja im ljevanica nalijevat' neću, ime im spominjat' neću usnama.
5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you maintain my lot.
Jahve mi je baština i kalež: Ti u ruci držiš moju sudbinu.
6 The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a goodly heritage.
Na divnu zemlju padoše mi konopi, vrlo mi je mila moja baština.
7 I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
Blagoslivljam Jahvu koji me svjetuje te me i noću srce opominje.
8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
Jahve mi je svagda pred očima; jer mi je zdesna, neću posrnuti.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
Stog' mi se raduje srce i kliče duša, i tijelo mi spokojno počiva.
10 For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Jer mi nećeš ostavit' dušu u Podzemlju ni dati da pravednik tvoj truleži ugleda. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.
Pokazat ćeš mi stazu u život, puninu radosti pred licem svojim, sebi zdesna blaženstvo vječno.
