Psalms 84
1 For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. How lovely are your dwellings, LORD of Armies!
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
2 My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of the LORD. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, LORD of Armies, my King, and my God.
I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are always praising you. (Selah)
a ja žrtvenike tvoje, Jahve nad Vojskama, Kralju moj i Bože moj! Blaženi koji prebivaju u Domu tvome slaveć' te bez prestanka!
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.
Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
6 Passing through the valley of Weeping, they make it a place of springs. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
7 They go from strength to strength. Every one of them appears before God in Zion.
Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
8 LORD, God of Armies, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)
Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
9 Behold, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.
Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
Zaista, jedan je dan u dvorima tvojim bolji od tisuću drugih. Volim biti na pragu Doma Boga svoga nego boraviti u šatorima grešnika.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and a shield. The LORD will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
12 LORD of Armies, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
