He has chosen [us, the descendants of] Jacob; he has chosen [us] Israelis to belong to him [DOU].
5 Znadem da je velik Jahve, da je nad bozima svim gospodar.
I know that Yahweh is great; he is greater than all the gods.

Yahweh does whatever he desires to do, in heaven and on the earth and in the seas/oceans, [down] to the bottom of the seas.
7 Oblake diže s kraja zemlje; stvara kiši munje, vjetar izvodi iz skrovišta njegovih.
He is the one who causes clouds to appear from very distant places on the earth; he sends lightning with the rain, and he brings the winds from the places where he stores them.
8 On Egiptu pobi prvorođence, ljude i stoku podjednako.
He is the one who killed [all] the firstborn [males] in Egypt, the firstborn of people and of animals.

There he performed many kinds of miracles [DOU] to punish the king and all his officials.
10 On pobi narode mnoge i pogubi kraljeve moćne:
He destroyed many nations and the powerful kings [who ruled them]:
11 Sihona, kralja amorejskog, i Oga, kralja bašanskog, i sva kraljevstva kanaanska.
Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, and Og, the king of Bashan [region], and all the other kings in Canaan [land].
12 I dade njihovu zemlju u baštinu, u baštinu Izraelu, narodu svom.
Then he gave their land to [us] Israeli people to belong to us [forever].
13 Ime tvoje, o Jahve, ostaje dovijeka i spomen na te, o Jahve, od koljena do koljena.
Yahweh your name will endure forever, and people who are not yet born will remember the great things [that you have done].
14 Jer Jahve štiti narod svoj, slugama svojim on je milostiv.
Yahweh, [you] declare that we your people (are innocent/have not done things that are wrong), and you are merciful to us.
15 Kumiri poganski, srebro i zlato, ljudskih su ruku djelo:
But the idols that the [other] people-groups [worship] are only [statues made of] silver and gold, things that humans have made.
16 usta imaju, a ne govore; oči imaju, a ne vide;
Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say [anything]; they have eyes, but they cannot see [anything].
17 uši imaju, a ne čuju; i nema daha u ustima njihovim.
They have ears, but they cannot hear [anything], and they are not [even able to] breathe.
18 Takvi su i oni koji ih napraviše i svi koji se u njih uzdaju.
The people who make those idols are as [powerless as] those idols, and those who trust in those idols [can accomplish no more than] their idols can!
19 Dome Izraelov, Jahvu blagoslivljaj! Dome Aronov, Jahvu blagoslivljaj!
