Psalmi 84
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
To the chief music-maker; put to the Gittith A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. How dear are your tents, O Lord of armies!
2 Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
The passion of my soul's desire is for the house of the Lord; my heart and my flesh are crying out for the living God.
3 I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
The little birds have places for themselves, where they may put their young, even your altars, O Lord of armies, my King and my God.
4 a ja žrtvenike tvoje, Jahve nad Vojskama, Kralju moj i Bože moj! Blaženi koji prebivaju u Domu tvome slaveć' te bez prestanka!
Happy are they whose resting-place is in your house: they will still be praising you. (Selah)
5 Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
Happy is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the highways to Zion.
6 Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
Going through the valley of balsam-trees, they make it a place of springs; it is clothed with blessings by the early rain.
7 Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
They go from strength to strength; every one of them comes before God in Zion.
8 Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
O Lord God of armies, let my prayer come to you: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
O God, let your eyes be on him who is our safe cover, and let your heart be turned to your king.
10 Zaista, jedan je dan u dvorima tvojim bolji od tisuću drugih. Volim biti na pragu Doma Boga svoga nego boraviti u šatorima grešnika.
For a day in your house is better than a thousand. It is better to be a door-keeper in the house of my God, than to be living in the tents of sin.
11 Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
The Lord God is our sun and our strength: the Lord will give grace and glory: he will not keep back any good thing from those whose ways are upright.
12 Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
O Lord of armies, happy is the man whose hope is in you.
