Psalm 34
King James Version
34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
Psalmi 34
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Hvalospjev Božjoj dobroti
[a] Davidova pjesma, nastala nakon što je David prevario Abimeleka, praveći se da je lud.
34 Slavit ću BOGA u sva vremena,
stalno ću ga pjesmom hvaliti.
2 Slušajte ponizni i nek' vam je drago
kad BOGOM hvalim se ponosno.
3 Veličajte BOGA zajedno sa mnom,
iskažimo čast imenu njegovom.
4 Molio sam BOGA, a on je slušao,
oslobodio me svih mojih strahova.
5 Ako od njega tražiš pomoć,
lice će ti se ozariti
i nikad se nećeš razočarati.
6 Kad sam bio potlačen i BOGA molio,
on je čuo i od svih nevolja me spasio.
7 BOŽJI anđeo oko ljudi kruži,
izbavlja one koji štuju BOGA.
8 Kušajte i vidite da dobar je BOG,
sretni su kojima je on utočište.
9 Poštujte BOGA, vi njegovi sveti,
jer tko njega štuje, ima sve.
10 Čak i bogate može zateći glad,
ali oni koji vjeruju BOGU,
imaju sve što im treba.
11 Dođite, djeco, poslušajte,
učit ću vas da BOGA poštujete.
12 Želiš li zaista život uživati,
doživjeti mnogo sretnih dana?
13 Suzdrži tada svoj jezik od zla,
neka iz tvojih usta ne izađe laž.
14 Makni se od zla i čini dobro.
Nastoj graditi i čuvati mir.
15 Jer, BOG štiti one koji čine dobro
i čuje sve njihove molitve.
16 No BOG se okreće protiv zlih;
čim umru, svi zaborave na njih.
17 Pravedni zovu BOGA upomoć i on ih čuje,
spašava ih iz svake njihove nevolje.
18 BOG je blizu svima koji pate,
obnavlja one bez hrabrosti i nade.
19 Pravednici prolaze mnoge nevolje,
ali BOG ih izbavlja iz svake.
20 Pažljivo će ih čuvati,
ni jedna kost neće im se slomiti.
21 No nesreća će dokrajčiti zločinca,
kazna će stići one koji mrze pravedne.
22 BOG spašava živote svojih slugu.
Tko se k njemu sklanja, neće nastradati.
