< Psalmi 118 >
1 Aleluja! Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.
2 Neka rekne dom Izraelov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
Let Israel say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”
3 Neka rekne dom Aronov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
Let the house of Aaron say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”
4 Svi koji se Jahve boje neka reknu: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
Let those who fear the LORD say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”
5 Iz tjeskobe Jahvu ja zazvah: on me usliša i oslobodi.
In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered and set me free.
6 Jahve je sa mnom i ja ne strahujem: što mi tko može?
The LORD is on my side; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
7 Jahve je sa mnom, pomoć moja, i zbunjene gledam dušmane.
The LORD is on my side; He is my helper. Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me.
8 Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u čovjeka.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.
9 Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u mogućnike.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.
10 Pogani me okružiše: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.
11 Opkoliše me odasvud: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.
12 Opkoliše me poput pčela, ubod im žeže kao trnje zapaljeno: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
They swarmed around me like bees, but they were extinguished like burning thorns; in the name of the LORD I cut them off.
13 Gurahu me, gurahu, da me obore, ali mi Jahve pomože.
I was pushed so hard I was falling, but the LORD helped me.
14 Jahve je moja snaga i pjesma, on mi je spasitelj.
The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation.
15 Čuj! Radost i spasenje odzvanja šatorima pravednika: Jahvina se proslavi desnica,
Shouts of joy and salvation resound in the tents of the righteous: “The right hand of the LORD performs with valor!
16 Jahvina me uzdigne desnica, Jahvina se proslavi desnica!
The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD performs with valor!”
17 Ne, umrijeti neću nego živjeti i kazivat ću djela Jahvina.
I will not die, but I will live and proclaim what the LORD has done.
18 Kaznom teškom kaznio me Jahve, ali me smrti ne preda.
The LORD disciplined me severely, but He has not given me over to death.
19 Otvorite mi širom vrata pravde: ući ću, Jahvi zahvalit'!
Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the LORD.
20 “Ovo su vrata Jahvina, na njih ulaze pravedni!”
This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it.
21 Zahvalit ću ti što si me uslišio i moj postao spasitelj.
I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.
22 Kamen što ga odbaciše graditelji postade kamen zaglavni.
The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
23 Jahvino je to djelo: kakvo čudo u očima našim!
This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
24 Ovo je dan što ga učini Jahve: kličimo i radujmo se njemu!
This is the day that the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 O Jahve, spasenje nam daj! Jahve, sreću nam daj!
O LORD, save us, we pray. We beseech You, O LORD, cause us to prosper!
26 Blagoslovljen koji dolazi u imenu Jahvinu! Blagoslivljamo vas iz Doma Jahvina!
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless you.
27 Obasjao nas Bog Jahve! Složite povorku s grančicama u ruci sve do rogova žrtvenika.
The LORD is God; He has made His light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
28 Ti si Bog moj - tebi zahvaljujem: Bože moj, tebe ja uzvisujem.
You are my God, and I will give You thanks. You are my God, and I will exalt You.
