Psalms 146

1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul.

Aleluja! Hvali, dušo moja, Jahvu!

2 While I live, I will praise the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

Hvalit ću Jahvu sveg života svojeg. Dok me bude, Bogu svom ću pjevati.

3 Do not put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.

Ne uzdajte se u knezove, u čovjeka od kog nema spasenja!

4 His spirit departs, and he returns to the 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 the LORD, 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. The LORD frees the prisoners.

potlačenima vraća pravicu, a gladnima kruh daje. Jahve oslobađa sužnje,

8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD raises up those who are bowed down. The LORD loves the righteous.

Jahve slijepcima oči otvara. Jahve uspravlja prignute, Jahve ljubi pravedne.

9 The LORD preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.

Jahve štiti tuđince, sirote i udovice podupire, a grešnicima mrsi putove.

10 The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!

Jahve će kraljevati dovijeka, tvoj Bog, Sione, od koljena do koljena. Aleluja!
