¹Psalam. Asafov. Bože, pogani, evo, provališe u baštinu tvoju, tvoj sveti Hram oskvrnuše, pretvoriše Jeruzalem u ruševine.

¹{A Psalm of Asaph.} O God, the nations are come into thine inheritance: thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem in heaps.

²Trupla tvojih slugu dadoše za hranu pticama nebeskim, meso tvojih pobožnika zvijerima zemaljskim.

²The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowl of the heavens, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth:

³Krv im k'o vodu prolijevahu oko Jeruzalema i ne bijaše nikoga da ih pokopa.

³Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury [them].

⁴Postadosmo sramota susjedima svojim, podsmijeh i ruglo svima oko nas.

⁴We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a mockery and a derision to them that are round about us.

⁵Dokle još, Jahve? Zar ćeš se svagda srditi? Zar će ljubomora tvoja poput ognja gorjeti?

⁵How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angry for ever? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire?

⁶Izlij gnjev na pogane koji te ne priznaju i na kraljevstva što ne zazivlju ime tvoje!

⁶Pour out thy fury upon the nations that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name:

⁷Jer izjedoše Jakova i opustošiše boravište njegovo.

⁷For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his habitation.

⁸Ne spominji se, protiv nas, grijeha otaca; neka nas pretekne smilovanje tvoje jer smo jadni i nevoljni.

⁸Remember not against us the iniquities of [our] forefathers; let thy tender mercies speedily come to meet us: for we are brought very low.

⁹Pomozi nam, Bože, pomoći naša, zbog slave imena svojega, oslobodi nas i otpusti nam grijehe zbog imena svoga!

⁹Help us, O God of our salvation, because of the glory of thy name; and deliver us, and forgive our sins, for thy name's sake.

¹⁰Zašto da pogani govore: "TÓa gdje je njihov Bog?" Nek' se na poganima pokaže, pred očima našim, kako osvećuješ prolivenu krv slugu svojih!

¹⁰Wherefore should the nations say, Where is their God? Let the avenging of the blood of thy servants that is shed be known among the nations in our sight.

¹¹Nek' do tebe dopru uzdasi sužanja, snagom svoje mišice poštedi predane smrti!

¹¹Let the groaning of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thine arm, preserve those that are appointed to die;

¹²A našim susjedima vrati sedmerostruko u krilo pogrdu koju naniješe tebi, o Jahve!

¹²And render unto our neighbours, sevenfold into their bosom, their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.

¹³A mi, tvoj puk i ovce paše tvoje, slavit ćemo te dovijeka, kazivat ćemo od koljena do koljena hvalu tvoju!

¹³And we, thy people and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks unto thee for ever; we will shew forth thy praise from generation to generation.
