< Psalms 146 >
1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul.
Aleluja! Hvali, dušo moja, Jahvu!
2 While I live I will praise Jehovah. I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.
Hvalit ću Jahvu sveg života svojeg. Dok me bude, Bogu svom ću pjevati.
3 Put not your trust in rulers, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
Ne uzdajte se u knezove, u čovjeka od kog nema spasenja!
4 His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth. In that very day his thoughts perish.
Iziđe li duh iz njega, u zemlju svoju on se vraća i propadaju sve misli njegove.
5 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,
Blago onom kome je pomoćnik Bog Jakovljev, kome je ufanje u Jahvi, Bogu njegovu,
6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps truth forever,
koji stvori nebo i zemlju, more i sve što je u njima; koji ostaje vjeran dovijeka,
7 who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. Jehovah releases the prisoners.
potlačenima vraća pravicu, a gladnima kruh daje. Jahve oslobađa sužnje,
8 Jehovah opens the eyes of the blind. Jehovah raises up those who are bowed down. Jehovah loves the righteous.
Jahve slijepcima oči otvara. Jahve uspravlja prignute, Jahve ljubi pravedne.
9 Jehovah preserves the sojourners. He upholds the fatherless and widow. But the way of the wicked he turns upside down.
Jahve štiti tuđince, sirote i udovice podupire, a grešnicima mrsi putove.
10 Jehovah will reign forever, thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye Jehovah.
Jahve će kraljevati dovijeka, tvoj Bog, Sione, od koljena do koljena. Aleluja!
