Psalms 41
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. Blessed is he who considers the poor. The LORD will deliver him in the day of evil.
Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Blago onome koji misli na uboga i slaba: u dan nevolje Jahve će ga spasiti!
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.
Jahve će ga štititi i živa sačuvati, sreću mu dati na zemlji i neće ga predati na volju dušmanima.
3 The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed, and restore him from his bed of illness.
Jahve će ga ukrijepiti na postelji boli, bolest mu okrenuti u snagu.
4 I said, “LORD, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
Zavapih: “Jahve, smiluj mi se, iscijeli mi dušu jer tebi sagriješih!”
5 My enemies speak evil against me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
Neprijatelji zlo govore o meni: “Kad će umrijeti i kad će mu nestati imena?”
6 If he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.
I dođe li tko da me posjeti, himbeno govori, u srcu pakosti skuplja i vani opada.
7 All who hate me whisper together against me. They imagine the worst for me.
Mrzitelji moji svi složno šapuću o meni; zlo mi dosuđuju:
8 “An evil disease”, they say, “has afflicted him. Now that he lies he shall rise up no more.”
“Pogubna se pošast na nj oborila.” Ili: “Tko jednom leže, više ne ustaje.”
9 Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate bread with me, has lifted up his heel against me.
Pa i prijatelj moj u koga se uzdah, koji blagovaše kruh moj, petu na me podiže.
10 But you, LORD, have mercy on me, and raise me up, that I may repay them.
A ti, Jahve, smiluj se meni i podigni me da im mogu uzvratiti.
11 By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.
Po tome ću znati da sam mio tebi: što se dušmanin moj neće veseliti nada mnom.
12 As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me in your presence forever.
A mene ćeš zdrava uzdržati i pred svoje me lice staviti dovijeka.
13 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting! Amen and amen.
Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, od vijeka do vijeka! Tako neka bude! Amen!
