1Psalam. Davidov. Kad je David bježao pred sinom Abšalomom.
1{A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.} Jehovah, how many are they that trouble me, many they that rise up against me!
2Jahve, koliko je tlačitelja mojih, koliki se podižu na me!
2Many say of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. Selah.
3Mnogi su što o meni zbore: "Nema mu spasenja u Bogu!"
3But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4Ti si ipak štit moj, Jahve; slavo moja, ti mi glavu podižeš.
4With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from the hill of his holiness. Selah.
5Iza sveg glasa Jahvi zavapih, i on me usliša sa svete gore svoje.
5I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
6Sad mogu leć' i usnuti, i onda ustat' jer me Jahve drži.
6I will not fear for myriads of the people that have set themselves against me round about.
7Ne bojim se tisuća ljudi što me opsjedaju dušmanski.
7Arise, Jehovah; save me, my God! For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone, thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
8Ustani, o Jahve! Spasi me, o Bože moj! Ti udaraš po obrazu sve neprijatelje moje, opakima zube razbijaš.
8Salvation is of Jehovah; thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
9U Jahve je spasenje: na tvom narodu tvoj je blagoslov!
