Psalms 16

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 A miktam of David. Keep me safe, O God; in you I take refuge	1 Miktam. Davidov. Čuvaj me, Bože, jer se tebi utječem.
2 I say to the Lord, you are my Lord, you are my only good.	2 Jahvi rekoh: »Ti si moj gospodar, nema mi blaženstva bez tebe!«
3 Worthless are all the false gods of the land. Accursed are all who delight in them.	3 Za svetima što su u zemlji sav plamtim od čežnje!
4 They multiply their sorrows who court other gods. Blood libations to them I will not pour out, nor will I take their names upon my lips.	4 Gomilaju patnje moje koji slijede bogove tuđe. Ja im ljevanicâ nalijevat’ neću, ime im spominjat’ neću usnama.
5 LORD, my allotted portion and my cup, you have made my destiny secure.	5 Jahve mi je baština i kalež: Ti u ruci držiš moju sudbinu.
6 Pleasant places were measured out for me; fair to me indeed is my inheritance.	6 Na divnu zemlju padoše mi konopi, vrlo mi je mila moja baština.
7 I bless the LORD who counsels me; even at night my heart exhorts me.	7 Blagoslivljam Jahvu koji me svjetuje te me i noću srce opominje.
8 I keep the LORD always before me; with the Lord at my right, I shall never be shaken.	8 Jahve mi je svagda pred očima; jer mi je zdesna, neću posrnuti.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, my soul rejoices; my body also dwells secure,	9 Stog’ mi se raduje srce i kliče duša, i tijelo mi spokojno počiva.
10 For you will not abandon me to Sheol, nor let your faithful servant see the pit.	10 Jer mi nećeš ostavit’ dušu u podzemlju ni dati da pravednik tvoj truleži ugleda.
11 You will show me the path to life, abounding joy in your presence, the delights at your right hand forever.	11 Pokazat ćeš mi stazu u život, puninu radosti pred licem svojim, sebi zdesna blaženstvo vječno.
