Psalmi 21
1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Jahve, zbog tvoje se moći kralj veseli, zbog pomoći tvoje radosno kliče.
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Jehovah, in Thy strength is the king joyful, In Thy salvation how greatly he rejoiceth.
2 Ti mu ispuni želju srca, ne odbi molitve usana njegovih.
The desire of his heart Thou gavest to him, And the request of his lips Thou hast not withheld. (Selah)
3 Ti ga predusrete blagoslovima sretnim, na glavu mu krunu stavi od suhoga zlata.
For Thou puttest before him blessings of goodness, Thou settest on his head a crown of fine gold.
4 Za život te molio, i ti mu dade premnoge dane - za vijeke vjekova.
Life he hath asked from Thee, Thou hast given to him — length of days, Age-during — and for ever.
5 Pomoću tvojom slava je njegova velika, uresio si ga veličanstvom i sjajem.
Great [is] his honour in Thy salvation, Honour and majesty Thou placest on him.
6 Ti ga učini blagoslovom za vjekove, veseliš ga radošću lica svojega.
For Thou makest him blessings for ever, Thou dost cause him to rejoice with joy, By Thy countenance.
7 Doista, kralj se uzda u Jahvu i po dobroti Svevišnjega neće se pokolebati.
For the king is trusting in Jehovah, And in the kindness of the Most High He is not moved.
8 Tvoja ruka nek' pronađe sve dušmane tvoje, desnica tvoja neka stigne one koji te mrze!
Thy hand cometh to all Thine enemies, Thy right hand doth find Thy haters.
9 Nek' budu kao u peći ognjenoj kad se ukaže lice tvoje! Nek' ih Jahve gnjevom uništi, neka ih proguta oganj!
Thou makest them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Thy presence. Jehovah in His anger doth swallow them, And fire doth devour them.
10 Njihovo potomstvo satri sa zemlje i rod im iz sinova ljudskih.
Their fruit from earth Thou destroyest, And their seed from the sons of men.
11 Ako li stanu zlo kovati protiv tebe, ako spremaju spletke, neće uspjeti.
For they stretched out against Thee evil, They devised a wicked device, they prevail not,
12 Ti ćeš ih natjerati u bijeg, svoj luk ćeš usmjeriti na njih.
For Thou makest them a butt, When Thy strings Thou preparest against their faces.
13 Ustani, Jahve, u sili svojoj! Daj nam da pjesmama slavimo snagu tvoju!
Be Thou exalted, O Jehovah in, Thy strength, We sing and we praise Thy might!
