Psalms 45
1 For the end, for alternate [strains] by the sons of Core; for instruction, a Song concerning the beloved. My heart has uttered a good matter: I declare my works to the king: my tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Ljiljani”. Sinova Korahovih. Poučna pjesma. Svadbena pjesma. Iz srca mi naviru riječi divne: pjesmu svoju ja kralju pjevam, jezik mi je k'o pisaljka hitra pisara.
2 You are more beautiful than the sons of men: grace has been shed forth on your lips: therefore God has blessed you for ever.
Lijep si, najljepši od ljudskih sinova, po usnama ti se milina prosula, stoga te Bog blagoslovio dovijeka.
3 Gird your sword upon your thigh, O Mighty One, in your comeliness, and in your beauty;
Pripaši mač uz bedra, junače, ogrni se sjajem i veličanstvom!
4 and bend [your bow], and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and your right hand shall guide you wonderfully.
Zajaši i kreni za istinu, za vjernost i pravdu, zapni luk i desnicu svoju proslavi!
5 Your weapons are sharpened, Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under you) [they are] in the heart of the king's enemies.
Oštre su strelice tvoje, narodi padaju pred tobom i kraljeve dušmane ostavlja hrabrost.
6 Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of your kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness.
Prijestolje je tvoje, Bože, u vijeke vjekova, i pravedno žezlo - žezlo je tvog kraljevstva!
7 You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your fellows.
Ti ljubiš pravednost, a mrziš bezakonje, stoga Jahve, Bog tvoj, tebe pomaza uljem radosti kao nikog od tvojih drugova.
8 Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia [are exhaled] from your garments, [and] out of the ivory palaces,
Smirnom, alojem i kasijom mirišu ti haljine, iz dvorova bjelokosnih harfe te vesele.
9 with which kings' daughters have gladdened you for your honour: the queen stood by on your right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, [and] arrayed in various colours.
Kraljevske ti kćeri idu u susret, zdesna ti je kraljica u zlatu ofirskom.
10 Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline your ear; forget also your people, and your father's house.
“Slušaj, kćeri, pogledaj, prisluhni: zaboravi svoj narod i dom oca svog!
11 Because the king has desired your beauty; for he is your Lord.
Zaželi li kralj ljepotu tvoju, smjerno se pokloni njemu jer je on gospodar tvoj.
12 And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate your favour.
Narod tirski dolazi s darovima, naklonost tvoju traže prvaci naroda.”
13 All her glory [is that] of the daughter of the king of Esebon, robed [as she is] in golden fringed garments,
Sva lijepa korača kći kraljeva u haljinama zlatom vezenim.
14 in embroidered [clothing]: virgins shall be brought to the king after her: her fellows shall be brought to you.
U haljini od veza šarena kralju je dovode, pratnja su joj djevice, druge njezine.
15 They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: they shall be led into the king's temple.
S veseljem ih vode i s klicanjem u kraljeve dvore ulaze.
16 Instead of your fathers children are born to you: you shall make them princes over all the earth.
Oce tvoje naslijedit će tvoji sinovi, postavit ćeš ih knezovima na svoj zemlji.
17 They shall make mention of your name from generation to generation: therefore shall the nations give thanks to you for ever, even for ever and ever.
Iz koljena u koljeno naviještat će ime tvoje, hvalit će te narodi u vijeke vjekova.
