< Psalms 84 >

1 For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core, concerning the wine-presses. How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts!
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
2 My soul longs, and faints for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh have exulted in the living god.
Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
3 Yea, the sparrow has found himself a home, and the turtle-dove a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, [even] thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.
I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will praise thee evermore. (Pause)
a ja žrtvenike tvoje, Jahve nad Vojskama, Kralju moj i Bože moj! Blaženi koji prebivaju u Domu tvome slaveć' te bez prestanka!
5 Blessed is the man whose help is of thee, O Lord; in his heart he has purposed to go up
Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
6 the valley of weeping, to the place which he has appointed, for [there] the law-giver will grant blessings.
Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
7 They shall go from strength to strength: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.
Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: hearken, O God of Jacob. (Pause)
Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
9 Behold, O God our defender, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
10 For one day in thy courts is better than thousands. I would rather be an abject in the house of God, than dwell in the tents of sinners.
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 loves mercy and truth: God will give grace and glory: the Lord will not withhold good things from them that walk in innocence.
Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in thee.
Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
