< Psalmi 105 >
1 Hvalite Jahvu, prizivajte mu ime, navješćujte među narodima djela njegova!
Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
2 Pjevajte mu, svirajte mu, pripovijedajte sva njegova čudesa!
Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
3 Dičite se svetim imenom njegovim, neka se raduje srce onih što traže Jahvu!
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
4 Tražite Jahvu i njegovu snagu, tražite svagda njegovo lice!
Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
5 Sjetite se čudesa koja učini, njegovih čuda i sudova usta njegovih!
Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
6 Abrahamov rod sluga je njegov, sinovi Jakovljevi njegovi izabranici!
you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7 On je Jahve, Bog naš; po svoj su zemlji njegovi sudovi!
He is the LORD, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
8 On se uvijek sjeća svojega Saveza, riječi koju dade tisući naraštaja:
He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
9 Saveza koji sklopi s Abrahamom i zakletve svoje Izaku.
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
10 Ustanovi je kao zakon Jakovu, Izraelu vječni Savez,
and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11 govoreći: “Tebi ću dati kanaansku zemlju kao dio u baštinu vašu.”
saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”
12 Kad ih još bješe malo na broju, vrlo malo, i kad bjehu pridošlice u njoj,
when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
13 išli su od naroda do naroda, iz jednoga kraljevstva k drugom narodu,
They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
14 ali ne dopusti nikom da ih tlači, kažnjavaše zbog njih kraljeve:
He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
15 “Ne dirajte u moje pomazanike, ne nanosite zla mojim prorocima!”
“Do not touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
16 I on pozva glad na zemlju, sve zalihe uništi krušne.
He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
17 Pred njima čovjeka posla: Josip u ropstvo bijaše prodan.
He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
18 Sputaše uzama noge njegove, u gvožđe mu vrat staviše,
They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
19 dok se ne ispuni proroštvo njegovo, Jahvina ga riječ potvrdi.
until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true.
20 Kralj naredi da ga driješe, narÄodÄa poglavar oslobodi njega.
The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
21 Za domaćina ga stavi kući svojoj, za nadstojnika sveg imanja svoga,
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions,
22 da velikaše njegove po volji uči i starce njegove mudrosti da vodi.
to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
23 Tad Izrael u Egipat uđe, Jakov došljak bješe u Kamovoj zemlji.
Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
24 Narod svoj umnoži veoma, učini ga jačim od dušmana.
He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
25 Okrenu im srce da zamrze narod njegov, da slugama njegovim opaki budu.
He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
26 Mojsija posla, slugu svoga, Arona, kog odabra.
He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 Činjahu među njima znake njegove i čudesa u Kamovoj zemlji.
They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 Posla tmine, i smrknu se, al' prkosiše oni riječima njegovim.
He sent darkness, and made it dark. They did not rebel against his words.
29 U krv im vode prometnu i pobi ribe njihove.
He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
30 Zemljom im žabe provrvješe, prodriješe i u dvore kraljevske.
Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
31 Reče, i muha roj doletje i komarci u sve kraje njine.
He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
32 Mjesto kiše grÓad im dade, ognjene munje po njihovoj zemlji.
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
33 Udari im lozu i smokve, polomi stabla u krajima njinim.
He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
34 Reče, i skakavci dođoše i bezbrojne gusjenice s njima.
He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number.
35 U zemlji im proždriješe svu bilinu, proždriješe rod njihovih njiva.
They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 Pobi sve prvorođene u njihovoj zemlji, sve prvine snage njihove.
He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
37 Izvede ih sa srebrom i zlatom; u plemenima njinim bolesnih ne bješe.
He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
38 Odlasku njihovu Egipat se obradova, jer ga od njih strah spopade.
Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
39 Rasprostro je oblak kao pokrov i oganj da se obnoć sja.
He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
40 Zamoliše, i dovede prepelice, nebeskim ih kruhom tad nahrani.
They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
41 Hrid rascijepi, i provri voda, pustinjom poteče kao rijeka.
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
42 Tad se sjeti svete riječi svoje što je zada sluzi svome Abrahamu.
For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
43 Puk svoj s klicanjem izvede i s veseljem izabrane svoje.
He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.
44 I dade im zemlje poganske, trud naroda baštiniše,
He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
45 da čuvaju naredbe njegove i zakone da mu paze. Aleluja!
that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
