< Psalmi 48 >

1 Pjesma. Psalam. Sinova Korahovih. Velik je Jahve, hvale predostojan u gradu Boga našega.
A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain,
2 Sveto brdo njegovo, brijeg veličanstven, radost je zemlji svoj. Gora Sion, na krajnjem sjeveru, grad je Kralja velikog.
Fair in situation, the joy of the whole earth; even mount Zion, the uttermost parts of the north, the city of the great King.
3 Bog u kulama njegovim jakom se pokaza utvrdom.
God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.
4 Jer gle, složiše se kraljevi, navališe zajedno.
For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.
5 Čim vidješe, zapanjiše se i zbunjeni u bijeg nagnuše.
They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.
6 Ondje ih trepet obuze kao muka porodilje,
Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.
7 kao kad vjetar istočni razbija brodove taršiške.
With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.
8 Što smo čuli, sada vidimo: grad Jahve nad Vojskama, grad Boga našega - Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God — God establish it for ever. (Selah)
9 Spominjemo se, Bože, tvoje dobrote usred Hrama tvojega.
We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Thy temple.
10 Kao ime tvoje, Bože, tako i slava tvoja do nakraj zemlje doseže. Puna je pravde desnica tvoja; neka se raduje brdo sionsko!
As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
11 Neka kliču gradovi Judini zbog tvojih sudova!
Let mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Thy judgments.
12 Obiđite Sion i prođite njime, prebrojite kule njegove!
Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.
13 Pogledajte dobro bedeme njegove, promotrite mu potanko dvorove: da biste kazivali budućem koljenu:
Mark ye well her ramparts, traverse her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
14 “Takav je Bog, Bog naš zasvagda i dovijeka! On neka nas vodi!”
For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.
