Psalmi 2

1 Zašto se bune narodi, zašto puci ludosti snuju?

Why are the nations in an uproar? And why do the peoples mutter in vain?

2 Ustaju kraljevi zemaljski, knezovi se rotÄe protiv Jahve i Pomazanika njegova:

The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed:

3 “Skršimo okove njihove i jaram njihov zbacimo!”

'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.'

4 Smije se onaj što na nebu stoluje, Gospod im se podruguje.

He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision.

5 Tad im veli u svom gnjevu, žestinom ih on zbunjuje:

Then will He speak unto them in His wrath, and affright them in His sore displeasure:

6 “TÓa ja kralja svog postavih nad Sionom, svojom svetom gorom.”

'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.'

7 Obznanjujem odluku Jahvinu: Gospodin mi reče: “Ti si sin moj, danas te rodih.

I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee.

8 Zatraži samo, i dat ću ti puke u baštinu, i u posjed krajeve zemaljske.

Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession.

9 Vladat ćeš njima palicom gvozdenÄom i razbit ih kao sud lončarski.”

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.'

10 Opametite se sada, vi kraljevi, Urazumite se, suci zemaljski.

Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth.

11 Služite Jahvi sa strahom, s trepetom se pokorite njemu,

Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

12 da se ne razgnjevi te ne propadnete na putu, kad uskoro plane srdžba njegova. Blago svima koji se njemu utječu!

Do homage in purity, lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
