< Psalms 147 >
1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, because the psalm is good. Delightful and beautiful praise shall be for our God.
Hvalite Gospoda; ker dobro je prepevati Bogu našemu; ker prijetno, spodobno je hvaljenje.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem. He will gather together the dispersed of Israel.
Zidar Jeruzalema Gospod, Izraelce zbira razkropljene.
3 He heals the contrite of heart, and he binds up their sorrows.
On ozdravlja potrte v srci in obvezuje v njih bolečinah.
4 He numbers the multitude of the stars, and he calls them all by their names.
Prešteva zvezd število, kliče jih, kolikor jih je, po imenih.
5 Great is our Lord, and great is his virtue. And of his wisdom, there is no number.
Velik je Gospod, Bog naš, in mnoga moč njegova, razumnost njegova brezmerna.
6 The Lord lifts up the meek, but he brings down the sinner, even to the ground.
Krotke podpira Gospod, hudobne potiska noter do tal.
7 Sing before the Lord with confession. Play psalms to our God on a stringed instrument.
Pojte hvalne pesmi Gospodu, na strune prepevajte našemu Bogu.
8 He covers heaven with clouds, and he prepares rain for the earth. He produces grass on the mountains and herbs for the service of men.
On zagrinja z gostimi oblaki nebesa; dež napravlja zemlji, daje, da seno rodevajo gore.
9 He gives their food to beasts of burden and to young ravens that call upon him.
Živež svoj daje živini, mladim krokarjem, ki čivkajo.
10 He will not have good will for the strength of the horse, nor will he be well pleased with the legs of a man.
Moči konjeve se ne veseli, stegna odličnega moža mu niso po volji;
11 The Lord is well pleased with those who fear him and with those who hope in his mercy.
Po volji so Gospodu boječi se njega, kateri imajo nado v milosti njegovi.
12 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem. Praise your God, O Zion.
S hvalo slávi Jeruzalem Gospoda, hvali Boga svojega, o Sijon.
13 For he has reinforced the bars of your gates. He has blessed your sons within you.
Ker zapahe tvojih vrát utrjuje, sinove tvoje blagoslavlja sredi tebe.
14 He has stationed peace at your borders, and he has satisfied you with the fat of the grain.
Mir daje pokrajinam tvojim, z mozgom pšenice te siti.
15 He sends forth his eloquence to the earth. His word runs swiftly.
Ko pošlje govor svoj na zemljo, urno izteče beseda njegova.
16 He provides snow like wool. He strews clouds like ashes.
Sneg daje kakor volno, slano razsiplje kakor pepél.
17 He sends his ice crystals like morsels. Who can stand firm before the face of his cold?
Led svoj meče dol, kakor koščke; pred mrazom njegovim kdo prebije?
18 He will send forth his word, and it will melt them. His Spirit will breathe out, and the waters will flow.
Besedo svojo pošlje in jih raztaja; kakor hitro pihne veter svoj, iztekó vodé.
19 He announces his word to Jacob, his justices and his judgments to Israel.
Besede svoje naznanja Jakobu; postave svoje in pravice svoje Izraelu.
20 He has not done so much for every nation, and he has not made his judgments manifest to them. Alleluia.
Ni storil tako nobenemu narodu; zatorej ne poznajo tistih pravic. Aleluja.
