Psalms 27

Davidov. Jahve mi je svjetlost i spasenje: koga da se bojim? Jahve je štit života moga: pred kime da strepim?

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Kad navale na me zlotvori da mi tijelo žderu, protivnici moji i dušmani, oni posrću i padaju.

When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

Nek' se vojska protiv mene utabori, srce se moje ne boji; nek' i rat plane protiv mene, i tada pun sam pouzdanja.

Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

Za jedno molim Jahvu, samo to ja tražim: da živim u Domu Jahvinu sve dane života svoga, da uživam milinu Jahvinu i Dom njegov gledam.

One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.

U sjenici svojoj on me zaklanja u dan kobni; skriva me u skrovištu Šatora svoga, na hridinu on me uzdiže.

For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

I sada izdižem glavu iznad dušmana oko sebe. U njegovu ću Šatoru prinositi žrtve radosne, Jahvi ću pjevat' i klicati.

And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

Slušaj, o Jahve, glas moga vapaja, milostiv mi budi, usliši me!

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

Moje mi srce govori: "Traži lice njegovo!" Da, lice tvoje, o Jahve, ja tražim.

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

Ne skrivaj lica svoga od mene. Ne odbij u gnjevu slugu svoga! Ti, Pomoći moja, nemoj me odbaciti! I ne ostavi me, Bože, Spasitelju moj!

Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

Ako me otac i mati ostave, Jahve će me primiti.

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

Nauči me, Jahve, putu svojemu, ravnom me stazom povedi poradi protivnika mojih.

Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

Bijesu dušmana mojih ne predaj me, jer ustadoše na mene svjedoci lažni koji dašću nasiljem.

Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Vjerujem da ću uživati dobra Jahvina u zemlji živih.

I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

U Jahvu se uzdaj, ojunači se, čvrsto nek' bude srce tvoje: u Jahvu se uzdaj!

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
