< Psalms 118 >
1 Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.
Aleluja! Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
2 Let Israel now say: For he is good, for his mercy is forever.
Neka rekne dom Izraelov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
3 Let the house of Aaron now say: For his mercy is forever.
Neka rekne dom Aronov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
4 Let those who fear the Lord now say: For his mercy is forever.
Svi koji se Jahve boje neka reknu: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
5 In my tribulation, I called upon the Lord. And the Lord heeded me with generosity.
Iz tjeskobe Jahvu ja zazvah: on me usliša i oslobodi.
6 The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me.
Jahve je sa mnom i ja ne strahujem: što mi tko može?
7 The Lord is my helper. And I will look down upon my enemies.
Jahve je sa mnom, pomoć moja, i zbunjene gledam dušmane.
8 It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in man.
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u čovjeka.
9 It is good to hope in the Lord, rather than to hope in leaders.
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u mogućnike.
10 All the nations have surrounded me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
Pogani me okružiše: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
11 Surrounding me, they closed in on me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
Opkoliše me odasvud: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
12 They surrounded me like a swarm, and they burned like fire among the thorns. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
Opkoliše me poput pčela, ubod im žeže kao trnje zapaljeno: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
13 Having been pushed, I was overturned so as to fall. But the Lord took me up.
Gurahu me, gurahu, da me obore, ali mi Jahve pomože.
14 The Lord is my strength and my praise. And he has become my salvation.
Jahve je moja snaga i pjesma, on mi je spasitelj.
15 A voice of exultation and salvation is in the tabernacles of the just.
Čuj! Radost i spasenje odzvanja šatorima pravednika: Jahvina se proslavi desnica,
16 The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue. The right hand of the Lord has exalted me. The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue.
Jahvina me uzdigne desnica, Jahvina se proslavi desnica!
17 I will not die, but I will live. And I will declare the works of the Lord.
Ne, umrijeti neću nego živjeti i kazivat ću djela Jahvina.
18 When chastising, the Lord chastised me. But he has not delivered me over to death.
Kaznom teškom kaznio me Jahve, ali me smrti ne preda.
19 Open the gates of justice to me. I will enter them, and I will confess to the Lord.
Otvorite mi širom vrata pravde: ući ću, Jahvi zahvalit'!
20 This is the gate of the Lord. The just will enter by it.
“Ovo su vrata Jahvina, na njih ulaze pravedni!”
21 I will confess to you because you have heard me. And you have become my salvation.
Zahvalit ću ti što si me uslišio i moj postao spasitelj.
22 The stone which the builders have rejected, this has become the head of the corner.
Kamen što ga odbaciše graditelji postade kamen zaglavni.
23 By the Lord has this been done, and it is a wonder before our eyes.
Jahvino je to djelo: kakvo čudo u očima našim!
24 This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us exult and rejoice in it.
Ovo je dan što ga učini Jahve: kličimo i radujmo se njemu!
25 O Lord, grant salvation to me. O Lord, grant good prosperity.
O Jahve, spasenje nam daj! Jahve, sreću nam daj!
26 Blessed is he who arrives in the name of the Lord. We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.
Blagoslovljen koji dolazi u imenu Jahvinu! Blagoslivljamo vas iz Doma Jahvina!
27 The Lord is God, and he has enlightened us. Establish a solemn day amid a dense crowd, even to the horn of the altar.
Obasjao nas Bog Jahve! Složite povorku s grančicama u ruci sve do rogova žrtvenika.
28 You are my God, and I will confess to you. You are my God, and I will exalt you. I will confess to you, for you have heeded me. And you have become my salvation.
Ti si Bog moj - tebi zahvaljujem: Bože moj, tebe ja uzvisujem.
29 Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.
Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
