Psalmi 27
1 Davidov. Jahve mi je svjetlost i spasenje: koga da se bojim? Jahve je štit života moga: pred kime da strepim?
By David. Jehovah [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? Jehovah [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
2 Kad navale na me zlotvori da mi tijelo žderu, protivnici moji i dušmani, oni posrću i padaju.
When evil doers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and mine enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
3 Nek' se vojska protiv mene utabori, srce se moje ne boji; nek' i rat plane protiv mene, i tada pun sam pouzdanja.
Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I [am] confident.
4 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] I asked of Jehovah — it I seek. My dwelling in the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.
5 U sjenici svojoj on me zaklanja u dan kobni; skriva me u skrovištu Šatora svoga, na hridinu on me uzdiže.
For He hideth me in a tabernacle in the day of evil, He hideth me in a secret place of His tent, On a rock he raiseth me up.
6 I sada izdižem glavu iznad dušmana oko sebe. U njegovu ću Šatoru prinositi žrtve radosne, Jahvi ću pjevat' i klicati.
And now, lifted up is my head, Above my enemies — my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, yea, I sing praise to Jehovah.
7 Slušaj, o Jahve, glas moga vapaja, milostiv mi budi, usliši me!
Hear, O Jehovah, my voice — I call, And favour me, and answer me.
8 Moje mi srce govori: “Traži lice njegovo!” Da, lice tvoje, o Jahve, ja tražim.
To Thee said my heart 'They sought my face, Thy face, O Jehovah, I seek.'
9 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 from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 Ako me otac i mati ostave, Jahve će me primiti.
When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then doth Jehovah gather me.
11 Nauči me, Jahve, putu svojemu, ravnom me stazom povedi poradi protivnika mojih.
Shew me, O Jehovah, Thy way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
12 Bijesu dušmana mojih ne predaj me, jer ustadoše na mene svjedoci lažni koji dašću nasiljem.
Give me not to the will of my adversaries, For risen against me have false witnesses, And they breathe out violence to me.
13 Vjerujem da ću uživati dobra Jahvina u zemlji živih.
I had not believed to look on the goodness of Jehovah In the land of the living!
14 U Jahvu se uzdaj, ojunači se, čvrsto nek' bude srce tvoje: u Jahvu se uzdaj!
Look unto Jehovah — be strong, And He doth strengthen thy heart, Yea, look unto Jehovah!
