Psalms 40
1 I waited patiently for Yahweh [to help me], and he listened to me [DOU] when I called out to him.
Дуго чеках Господа, и саже се к мени, и чу вику моју.
2 [When I had many troubles, it was as though] I was in a deep pit. But he lifted me up out of the mud and slime of that pit; he set my feet on a [solid] rock, and enabled me to walk (safely/without falling).
Извади ме из јаме, која бучи, и из глиба, и постави на камен ноге моје, и утврди стопе моје.
3 He has given me a new song to sing, a song to praise him who is our God. Many people will find out [what he has done for me], and they will revere and trust him.
И метну у уста моја песму нову, хвалу Богу нашем. Виде многи, и почињу се бојати Господа, и уздати се у Њега.
4 Yahweh is pleased with those who trust him, those who do not trust in idols or join with those who worship those false gods.
Благо ономе који на Господа ставља надање своје, и не обраћа се охолима и оним који теже на лаж.
5 O Yahweh, my God, you have done many wonderful things! No one can list all the wonderful things that you have planned for us. If I tried to tell [others] about all those wonderful things, I would not be able to, because there would be too many for me to mention.
Многа су чудеса Твоја, која си учинио Господе, Боже мој, и многе су мисли Твоје с нама. Нема Ти равна. Хтео бих јављати и казивати, али им броја нема.
6 Various kinds of sacrifices and other offerings are not the [only] things that delight you. You have enabled me to understand that very well [IDM]. [Animals] burned [on the altar] and [other] offerings are not all that you require [for sins to be forgiven].
Жртве и дарове нећеш; Ти си ми уши отворио; жртву паљеницу и која се за грех приноси не тражиш.
7 So I said [to you], “Yahweh, here I am, [to do] the things that have been written in the scroll [that contains your laws], things that you want me [to do].”
И по томе рекох: Ево идем, као што је у књизи писано за мене;
8 O my God, I delight to do what you desire; I [keep] your laws within my inner being.
Хоћу чинити вољу Твоју, Боже мој, и закон је Твој мени у срцу.
9 Whenever all [your people] are gathered, I have told them about how you save us. Yahweh, you know that I have not been afraid to tell that to them.
Казујем правду на сабору великом; ево, уста својих не устављам; Господе, Ти знаш.
10 And I have not kept to myself the news that you always act justly/fairly; when many of your people have gathered together [to worship you in the temple], I have told them that you are faithful to us and save us. I have (not concealed/openly told people) that you faithfully love us and act loyally toward us.
Правде Твоје не сакривам у срцу свом, казујем верност Твоју и спасење Твоје; и не тајим милости Твоје и истине Твоје од сабора великог.
11 Yahweh, do not stop being merciful to me. Because you faithfully love [me] [PRS] and are loyal [to me], always protect me.
Господе, немој затворити срца свог од мене; милост Твоја и истина Твоја једнако нека ме чувају.
12 I have many troubles; [so many that] I cannot count them. My sins are like a flood that has covered me [PRS, MET]; [they are so many that] I cannot find my way. The sins that I have committed are more than the hairs on my head. I am very discouraged.
Јер ме опколише зла небројена; стигоше ме неправде моје, да не могу гледати; има их више него косе на глави мојој, срце ме моје остави.
13 O Yahweh, please save me! Come quickly to help me!
Господе, вољан буди избавити ме, Господе, похитај ми у помоћ.
14 Humble those who are happy about my troubles, and cause them to be disgraced and ashamed. Chase away those who are trying to get rid of me.
Нек се постиде и посраме сви који траже погибао души мојој! Нек се врате натраг и постиде који ми желе зло.
15 I hope/desire that those who make fun of me will be dismayed when you defeat them.
Нек се поврате у сметњи својој који ми говоре: Ха! Ха!
16 But I hope that all those who go to [worship] you will be very joyful [DOU]. I want those who love you because you saved them to shout repeatedly, “Yahweh is great!”
Нека се теше и веселе Тобом сви који траже Тебе Господе, и који љубе спасење Твоје, нека једнако говоре: Велик Господ!
17 As for me, I am poor and needy [DOU]; but [I know that] Yahweh has not forgotten me. O my God, you are the one who saves and helps me, so please come quickly [and help me!]
Ја сам несрећан и ништ, нека се Господ постара за ме! Ти си помоћ моја и Избавитељ мој, Боже мој, не часи.
