Psalms 51

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 For the leader. A psalm of David,	1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov.
2 when Nathan the prophet came to him after his affair with Bathsheba.	2 Kad je prorok Natan došao k Davidu poslije njegova grijeha s Bat-Šebom.
3 Have mercy on me, God, in your goodness; in your abundant compassion blot out my offense.	3 Smiluj mi se, Bože, po milosrđu svome, po velikom smilovanju izbriši moje bezakonje!
4 Wash away all my guilt; from my sin cleanse me.	4 Operi me svega od moje krivice, od grijeha me mojeg očisti!
5 For I know my offense; my sin is always before me.	5 Bezakonje svoje priznajem, grijeh je moj svagda preda mnom.
6 Against you alone have I sinned; I have done such evil in your sight That you are just in your sentence, blameless when you condemn.	6 Tebi, samom tebi ja sam zgriješio i učinio što je zlo pred tobom: pravedan ćeš biti kad progovoriš, bez prijekora kada presudiš.
7 True, I was born guilty, a sinner, even as my mother conceived me.	7 Evo, grešan sam već rođen, u grijehu me zače majka moja.
8 Still, you insist on sincerity of heart; in my inmost being teach me wisdom.	8 Evo, ti ljubiš srce iskreno, u dubini duše učiš me mudrosti.
9 Cleanse me with hyssop, that I may be pure; wash me, make me whiter than snow.	9 Poškropi me izopom da se očistim, operi me, i bit ću bjelji od snijega!
10 Let me hear sounds of joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice.	10 Objavi mi radost i veselje, nek’ se obraduju kosti satrvene!
11 Turn away your face from my sins; blot out all my guilt.	11 Odvrati lice od grijeha mojih, izbriši svu moju krivicu!
12 A clean heart create for me, God; renew in me a steadfast spirit.	12 Čisto srce stvori mi, Bože, i duh postojan obnovi u meni!
13 Do not drive me from your presence, nor take from me your holy spirit.	13 Ne odbaci me od lica svojega i svoga svetog duha ne uzmi od mene!
14 Restore my joy in your salvation; sustain in me a willing spirit.	14 Vrati mi radost svoga spasenja i učvrsti me duhom spremnim!
15 I will teach the wicked your ways, that sinners may return to you.	15 Učit ću bezakonike tvojim stazama, i grešnici tebi će se obraćati.
16 Rescue me from death, God, my saving God, that my tongue may praise your healing power.	16 Oslobodi me od krvi prolivene, Bože, Bože spasitelju moj! Nek’ mi jezik kliče pravednosti tvojoj!
17 Lord, open my lips; my mouth will proclaim your praise.	17 Otvori, Gospodine, usne moje, i usta će moja naviještati hvalu tvoju.
18 For you do not desire sacrifice; a burnt offering you would not accept.	18 Žrtve ti se ne mile, kad bih dao paljenicu, ti je ne bi primio.
19 My sacrifice, God, is a broken spirit; God, do not spurn a broken, humbled heart.	19 Žrtva Bogu duh je raskajan, srce raskajano, ponizno, Bože, nećeš prezreti.
20 Make Zion prosper in your good pleasure; rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.	20 U svojoj dobroti milostiv budi Sionu i opet sagradi jeruzalemske zidine!
21 Then you will be pleased with proper sacrifice, burnt offerings and holocausts; then bullocks will be offered on your altar.	21 Tada će ti biti mile žrtve pravedne i tad će se prinosit’ teoci na žrtveniku tvojemu.
