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 let glory be given, because of your mercy and your unchanging faith.
2 Proč mají říkati pohané: Kdež jest nyní Bůh jejich?
Why may the nations say, Where is now their God?
3 Ješto Bůh náš jest na nebi, čině všecko, což se mu líbí.
But our God is in heaven: he has done whatever was pleasing to him.
4 Modly pak jejich jsou stříbro a zlato, dílo rukou lidských.
Their images are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
5 Ústa mají, a nemluví, oči mají, a nevidí.
They have mouths, but no voice; they have eyes, but they see not;
6 Uši mají, a neslyší, nos mají, a nečijí.
They have ears, but no hearing; they have noses, but no sense of smell;
7 Ruce mají, a nemakají, nohy mají, a nechodí, aniž volati mohou hrdlem svým.
They have hands without feeling, and feet without power of walking; and no sound comes from their throat.
8 Nechať jsou jim podobni, kteříž je dělají, a kdožkoli v nich doufají.
Those who make them are like them; and so is everyone who puts his faith in them.
9 Izraeli, doufej v Hospodina, nebo spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
O Israel, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.
10 Dome Aronův, doufej v Hospodina, spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.
11 Kteříž se bojíte Hospodina, doufejte v Hospodina, spomocníkem a štítem takových on jest.
You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.
12 Hospodin rozpomena se na nás, požehná; požehná domu Izraelovu, požehná i domu Aronovu.
The Lord has kept us in mind and will give us his blessing; he will send blessings on the house of Israel and on the house of Aaron.
13 Požehná bojícím se Hospodina, malým, i velikým.
He will send blessings on the worshippers of the Lord, on the small and on the great.
14 Rozmnoží Hospodin vás, vás i syny vaše.
May the Lord give you and your children still greater increase.
15 Požehnaní vy od Hospodina, kterýž učinil nebesa i zemi.
May you have the blessing of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
16 Nebesa jsou nebesa Hospodinova, zemi pak dal synům lidským.
The heavens are the Lord's; but the earth he has given to the children of men.
17 Ne mrtví chváliti budou Hospodina, ani kdo ze všech těch, kteříž sstupují do místa mlčení,
The dead do not give praise to the Lord; or those who go down to the underworld.
18 Ale my dobrořečiti budeme Hospodinu od tohoto času až na věky. Halelujah.
But we will give praise to the Lord now and for ever. Praise be to the Lord.
