¹Zborovođi. Po napjevu "Ne pogubi!" Davidov. Miktam. Kad je ispred Šaula pobjegao u pećinu.

¹{To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave.} Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.

²Smiluj mi se, Bože, o smiluj se meni jer mi se duša utječe tebi! U sjenu tvojih krila zaklanjam se dok pogibao ne mine.

²I will call unto God, the Most High; unto ùGod that performeth [all] for me.

³Vapijem Bogu višnjemu, Bogu koji mi čini dobro.

³He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. Selah. God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.

⁴Nek' pošalje s nebesa i spasi me, nek' postidi one što me progone: neka Bog pošalje dobrotu svoju i vjernost!

⁴My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down [among] them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

⁵Ležim usred lavova koji proždiru ljudske sinove. Zubi su im koplja i strijele, a jezik im mač je naoštren.

⁵Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!

⁶Uzvisi se, Bože, nad nebesa, slava tvoja nek' je nad svom zemljom!

⁶They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. Selah.

⁷Mrežu namjestiše stopama mojim, stisnuše dušu moju; iskopaše preda mnom jamu: sami nek' u nju padnu!

⁷My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms.

⁸Postojano je srce moje, Bože, postojano je srce moje; pjevat ću i svirati.

⁸Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.

⁹Probudi se, dušo moja! Probudi se, harfo i citaro! Probudit ću zoru jutarnju.

⁹I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:

¹⁰Hvalit ću te, Gospode, među narodima, među pucima pjevat ću tebi:

¹⁰For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.

¹¹jer do neba je dobrota tvoja, do oblaka vjernost tvoja.

¹¹Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!

¹²Uzvisi se, Bože, nad nebesa, slava tvoja nek' je nad svom zemljom!
