< Psalmi 84 >
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
2 Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
My soul yearneth, yea, even pineth for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy unto the living God.
3 I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young; Thine 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!
Happy are they that dwell in Thy house, they are ever praising Thee. (Selah)
5 Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways.
6 Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; yea, the early rain clotheth it with blessings.
7 Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8 Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of Thine 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 a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand; I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
O LORD of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in Thee.
