1Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
1Zborovođi. Po napjevu "Ne pogubi!" Davidov. Miktam. Kad je ispred Šaula pobjegao u pećinu.
2I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
2Smiluj mi se, Bože, o smiluj se meni jer mi se duša utječe tebi! U sjenu tvojih krila zaklanjam se dok pogibao ne mine.
3He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
3Vapijem Bogu višnjemu, Bogu koji mi čini dobro.
4My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
4Nek' pošalje s nebesa i spasi me, nek' postidi one što me progone: neka Bog pošalje dobrotu svoju i vjernost!
5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
5Ležim usred lavova koji proždiru ljudske sinove. Zubi su im koplja i strijele, a jezik im mač je naoštren.
6They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
6Uzvisi se, Bože, nad nebesa, slava tvoja nek' je nad svom zemljom!
7My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
7Mrežu namjestiše stopama mojim, stisnuše dušu moju; iskopaše preda mnom jamu: sami nek' u nju padnu!
8Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
8Postojano je srce moje, Bože, postojano je srce moje; pjevat ću i svirati.
9I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
9Probudi se, dušo moja! Probudi se, harfo i citaro! Probudit ću zoru jutarnju.
10For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
10Hvalit ću te, Gospode, među narodima, među pucima pjevat ću tebi:
11Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
11jer do neba je dobrota tvoja, do oblaka vjernost tvoja.
12Uzvisi se, Bože, nad nebesa, slava tvoja nek' je nad svom zemljom!
