< Psalms 72 >
1 [A Psalm] of Solomon. Give the king thy judgments, O God, And thy righteousness unto the king’s son.
Salomonov. Bože, sud svoj daj kralju i svoju pravdu sinu kraljevu.
2 He will judge thy people with righteousness, And thy poor with justice.
Nek' puku tvojem sudi pravedno, siromasima po pravici!
3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, And the hills, in righteousness.
Nek' bregovi narodu urode mirom, a brežuljci pravdom.
4 He will judge the poor of the people, He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor.
Sudit će pravo ubogim pučanima, djeci siromaha donijet će spasenje, a tlačitelja on će smrviti.
5 They shall fear thee while the sun endureth, And so long as the moon, throughout all generations.
I živjet će dugo kao sunce i kao mjesec u sva pokoljenja.
6 He will come down like rain upon the mown grass, As showers that water the earth.
Sići će kao rosa na travu, kao kiša što natapa zemlju!
7 In his days shall the righteous flourish, And abundance of peace, till the moon be no more.
U danima njegovim cvjetat će pravda i mir velik - sve dok bude mjeseca.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River unto the ends of the earth.
I vladat će od mora do mora i od Rijeke do granica svijeta.
9 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; And his enemies shall lick the dust.
Dušmani će njegovi preda nj kleknuti i protivnici lizati prašinu.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render tribute: The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
Kraljevi Taršiša i otoka nosit će dare, vladari od Arabije i Sabe danak donositi.
11 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him; All nations shall serve him.
Klanjat će mu se svi vladari, svi će mu narodi služiti.
12 For he will deliver the needy when he crieth, And the poor, that hath no helper.
On će spasiti siromaha koji uzdiše, nevoljnika koji pomoćnika nema;
13 He will have pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he will save.
smilovat će se ubogu i siromahu i spasit će život nevoljniku:
14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence; And precious will their blood be in his sight:
oslobodit će ih nepravde i nasilja, jer je dragocjena u njegovim očima krv njihova.
15 And they shall live; and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: And men shall pray for him continually; They shall bless him all the day long.
Stog' neka živi! Neka ga daruju zlatom iz Arabije, nek' mole za njega svagda i neka ga blagoslivljaju!
16 There shall be abundance of grain in the earth upon the top of the mountains; The fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
Nek' bude izobila žita u zemlji, po vrhuncima klasje neka šušti k'o Libanon! I cvjetali stanovnici gradova kao trava na livadi.
17 His name shall endure for ever; His name shall be continued as long as the sun: And men shall be blessed in him; All nations shall call him happy.
Bilo ime njegovo blagoslovljeno dovijeka! Dok je sunca, živjelo mu ime! Njim se blagoslivljala sva plemena zemlje, svi narodi nazivali blaženima!
18 Blessed be Jehovah God, the God of Israel, Who only doeth wondrous things:
Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, koji jedini tvori čudesa!
19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever; And let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen, and Amen.
I blagoslovljeno slavno mu ime dovijeka! Sva se zemlja napunila slave njegove! Tako neka bude. Amen!
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
Time se završavaju molitve Jišajeva sina Davida.
