< Žalmy 115 >
1 Ne nám, Hospodine, ne nám, ale jménu svému dej čest, pro milosrdenství své a pro pravdu svou.
Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory.
2 Proč mají říkati pohané: Kdež jest nyní Bůh jejich?
Give glory to your mercy and your truth, lest the Gentiles should say, “Where is their God?”
3 Ješto Bůh náš jest na nebi, čině všecko, což se mu líbí.
But our God is in heaven. All things whatsoever that he has willed, he has done.
4 Modly pak jejich jsou stříbro a zlato, dílo rukou lidských.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.
5 Ústa mají, a nemluví, oči mají, a nevidí.
They have mouths, and do not speak; they have eyes, and do not see.
6 Uši mají, a neslyší, nos mají, a nečijí.
They have ears, and do not hear; they have noses, and do not smell.
7 Ruce mají, a nemakají, nohy mají, a nechodí, aniž volati mohou hrdlem svým.
They have hands, and do not feel; they have feet, and do not walk. Neither will they cry out with their throat.
8 Nechať jsou jim podobni, kteříž je dělají, a kdožkoli v nich doufají.
Let those who make them become like them, along with all who trust in them.
9 Izraeli, doufej v Hospodina, nebo spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
The house of Israel has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
10 Dome Aronův, doufej v Hospodina, spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
The house of Aaron has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
11 Kteříž se bojíte Hospodina, doufejte v Hospodina, spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
Those who fear the Lord have hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
12 Hospodin rozpomena se na nás, požehná; požehná domu Izraelovu, požehná i domu Aronovu.
The Lord has been mindful of us, and he has blessed us. He has blessed the house of Israel. He has blessed the house of Aaron.
13 Požehná bojícím se Hospodina, malým, i velikým.
He has blessed all who fear the Lord, the small with the great.
14 Rozmnoží Hospodin vás, vás i syny vaše.
May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your sons.
15 Požehnaní vy od Hospodina, kterýž učinil nebesa i zemi.
Blessed are you by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
16 Nebesa jsou nebesa Hospodinova, zemi pak dal synům lidským.
The heaven of heaven is for the Lord, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.
17 Ne mrtví chváliti budou Hospodina, ani kdo ze všech těch, kteříž sstupují do místa mlčení,
The dead will not praise you, Lord, and neither will all those who descend into Hell. ()
18 Ale my dobrořečiti budeme Hospodinu od tohoto času až na věky. Halelujah.
But we who live will bless the Lord, from this time forward, and even forever.
