< Psalms 84 >
1 To the chief music-maker; put to the Gittith A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. How dear are your tents, O Lord of armies!
Kako ljubka so tvoja šotorska svetišča, oh Gospod nad bojevniki!
2 The passion of my soul's desire is for the house of the Lord; my heart and my flesh are crying out for the living God.
Moja duša hrepeni, da, celó slabi zaradi Gospodovih dvorov. Moje srce in moje meso vpijeta za živim Bogom.
3 The little birds have places for themselves, where they may put their young, even your altars, O Lord of armies, my King and my God.
Da, vrabec najde dom in lastovka gnezdo zase, kjer lahko položi svoje mladiče, celó tvoje oltarje, oh Gospod nad bojevniki, moj Kralj in moj Bog.
4 Happy are they whose resting-place is in your house: they will still be praising you. (Selah)
Blagoslovljeni so tisti, ki prebivajo v tvoji hiši. Oni te bodo nenehno slavili. (Sela)
5 Happy is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the highways to Zion.
Blagoslovljen je človek, čigar moč je v tebi, v čigar srcu so njihove poti.
6 Going through the valley of balsam-trees, they make it a place of springs; it is clothed with blessings by the early rain.
Kateri hodijo skozi dolino Baka jo oblikujejo [v] studenec; tudi dež napolnjuje tolmune.
7 They go from strength to strength; every one of them comes before God in Zion.
Hodijo iz moči v moč, vsak izmed njih se na Sionu prikaže pred Bogom.
8 O Lord God of armies, let my prayer come to you: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
Oh Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, usliši mojo molitev, pazljivo prisluhni, oh Bog Jakobov. (Sela)
9 O God, let your eyes be on him who is our safe cover, and let your heart be turned to your king.
Glej, oh Bog, naš ščit in poglej na obraz svojega maziljenca.
10 For a day in your house is better than a thousand. It is better to be a door-keeper in the house of my God, than to be living in the tents of sin.
Kajti en dan v tvojih dvorih je boljši kakor tisoč. Raje bi bil vratar v hiši svojega Boga, kakor da bi prebival v šotorih zlobnosti.
11 The Lord God is our sun and our strength: the Lord will give grace and glory: he will not keep back any good thing from those whose ways are upright.
Kajti Gospod Bog je sonce in ščit. Gospod bo dal milost in slavo. Nobene dobre stvari ne bo zadržal pred tistimi, ki hodijo iskreno.
12 O Lord of armies, happy is the man whose hope is in you.
Oh Gospod nad bojevniki, blagoslovljen je mož, ki zaupa vate.
