Psalms 16

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	Biblija Hrvatski
1 A Prayer of David. Lord, listen to my justice, attend to my supplication. Pay attention to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.	1 Miktam. Davidov. Čuvaj me, Bože, jer se tebi utječem.
2 Let my judgment proceed from your presence. Let your eyes behold fairness.	2 Jahvi rekoh: »Ti si moj gospodar, nema mi blaženstva bez tebe!«
3 You have tested my heart and visited it by night. You have examined me by fire, and iniquity has not been found in me.	3 Za svetima što su u zemlji sav plamtim od čežnje!
4 Therefore, may my mouth not speak the works of men. I have kept to difficult ways because of the words of your lips.	4 Gomilaju patnje moje koji slijede bogove tuđe. Ja im ljevanicâ nalijevat’ neću, ime im spominjat’ neću usnama.
5 Perfect my steps in your paths, so that my footsteps may not be disturbed.	5 Jahve mi je baština i kalež: Ti u ruci držiš moju sudbinu.
6 I have cried out because you, O God, have listened to me. Incline your ear to me and heed my words.	6 Na divnu zemlju padoše mi konopi, vrlo mi je mila moja baština.
7 Make your mercies wonderful, for you save those who hope in you.	7 Blagoslivljam Jahvu koji me svjetuje te me i noću srce opominje.
8 From those who resist your right hand, preserve me like the pupil of your eye. Protect me under the shadow of your wings,	8 Jahve mi je svagda pred očima; jer mi je zdesna, neću posrnuti.
9 from the face of the impious who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul.	9 Stog’ mi se raduje srce i kliče duša, i tijelo mi spokojno počiva.
10 They have concealed their fatness; their mouth has been speaking arrogantly.	10 Jer mi nećeš ostavit’ dušu u podzemlju ni dati da pravednik tvoj truleži ugleda.
11 They have cast me out, and now they have surrounded me. They have cast their eyes down to the earth.	11 Pokazat ćeš mi stazu u život, puninu radosti pred licem svojim, sebi zdesna blaženstvo vječno.
12 They have taken me, like a lion ready for the prey, and like a young lion dwelling in hiding.
13 Rise up, O Lord, arrive before him and displace him. Deliver my soul from the impious one: your spear from the enemies of your hand.
14 Lord, divide them from the few of the earth in their life. Their gut has been filled from your hidden stores. They have been filled with sons, and they have bequeathed to their little ones the remainder.
15 But as for me, I will appear before your sight in justice. I will be satisfied when your glory appears.
