Psalmi 84
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core, concerning the wine presses. How amiable are your tabernacles, O Lord of hosts!
2 Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
My soul longs, and faints for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh have exulted in the living god.
3 I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
Yes, the sparrow has found himself a home, and the turtle-dove a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, [even] your altars, O Lord of hosts, 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!
Blessed are they that dwell in your house: they will praise you evermore. (Pause)
5 Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
Blessed is the man whose help is of you, O Lord; in his heart he has purposed to go up
6 Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
the valley of weeping, to the place which he has appointed, for [there] the law-giver will grant blessings.
7 Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
They shall go from strength to strength: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.
8 Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: listen, O God of Jacob. (Pause)
9 Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
Behold, O God our defender, and look upon the face of your anointed.
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 one day in your courts is better than thousands. I would rather be an abject in the house of God, than dwell in the tents of sinners.
11 Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
For the Lord loves mercy and truth: God will give grace and glory: the Lord will not withhold good things from them that walk in innocence.
12 Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in you.
