< Psalms 48 >
1 Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
Velik je Gospod i slavan veoma u gradu Boga našega, na svetoj gori svojoj.
2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
Prekrasna je visina, utjeha svoj zemlji gora Sion, na sjevernoj strani njezinoj grad cara velikoga.
3 God has made himself known in her palaces for a refuge.
Bog u dvorima njegovijem zna se da je braniè.
4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves. They passed by together.
Jer, gle, carevi se zemaljski sabraše, ali proðoše svi.
5 They saw it, then were they amazed. They were dismayed, they hastened away.
Vidješe i zaèudiše se, prepadoše se i pobjegoše.
6 Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.
Trepet obuze ih ondje, muèiše se kao porodilja.
7 With the east wind thou break the ships of Tarshish.
Vjetrom istoènim razbio si korablje Tarsiske.
8 As we have heard, so we have seen in the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God, God will establish it forever. (Selah)
Što slušamo to i vidimo u gradu Gospoda nad vojskama, u gradu Boga našega. Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
9 We have thought on thy loving kindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
Kazujemo, Bože, milost tvoju usred crkve tvoje.
10 As is thy name, O God, so is thy praise to the ends of the earth. Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
Kao što je ime tvoje, Bože, tako je i hvala tvoja na krajevima zemaljskim; pravde je puna desnica tvoja.
11 Let mount Zion be glad. Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of thy judgments.
Nek se veseli gora Sion, nek se raduju kæeri Judejske sudova radi tvojijeh.
12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her. Number the towers of it,
Poðite oko Siona i obiðite ga, izbrojte kule njegove;
13 mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces, that ye may tell it to the generation following.
Pogledajte bedeme njegove, razmotrite dvorove njegove, da pripovijedate mlaðim naraštajima.
14 For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.
Jer je ovaj Bog naš Bog uvijek i dovijeka, on æe biti voð naš dovijeka.
