< Psalms 48 >
1 A Canticle Psalm. To the sons of Korah, on the second Sabbath. The Lord is great and exceedingly praiseworthy, in the city of our God, on his holy mountain.
Velik je Gospod i slavan veoma u gradu Boga našega, na svetoj gori svojoj.
2 Mount Zion is being founded with the exultation of the whole earth, on the north side, the city of the great king.
Prekrasna je visina, utjeha svoj zemlji gora Sion, na sjevernoj strani njezinoj grad cara velikoga.
3 In her houses, God will be known, since he will support her.
Bog u dvorima njegovijem zna se da je braniè.
4 For behold, the kings of the earth have been gathered together; they have convened as one.
Jer, gle, carevi se zemaljski sabraše, ali proðoše svi.
5 Such did they see, and they were astonished: they were disturbed, they were moved.
Vidješe i zaèudiše se, prepadoše se i pobjegoše.
6 Trembling took hold of them. In that place, their pains were that of a woman in labor.
Trepet obuze ih ondje, muèiše se kao porodilja.
7 With a vehement spirit, you will crush the ships of Tarshish.
Vjetrom istoènim razbio si korablje Tarsiske.
8 As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God. God has founded it in eternity.
Što slušamo to i vidimo u gradu Gospoda nad vojskama, u gradu Boga našega. Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
9 We have received your mercy, O God, in the midst of your temple.
Kazujemo, Bože, milost tvoju usred crkve tvoje.
10 According to your name, O God, so does your praise reach to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of justice.
Kao što je ime tvoje, Bože, tako je i hvala tvoja na krajevima zemaljskim; pravde je puna desnica tvoja.
11 Let mount Zion rejoice, and let the daughters of Judah exult, because of your judgments, O Lord.
Nek se veseli gora Sion, nek se raduju kæeri Judejske sudova radi tvojijeh.
12 Encircle Zion and embrace her. Discourse in her towers.
Poðite oko Siona i obiðite ga, izbrojte kule njegove;
13 Set your hearts on her virtue. And distribute her houses, so that you may discourse of it in another generation.
Pogledajte bedeme njegove, razmotrite dvorove njegove, da pripovijedate mlaðim naraštajima.
14 For this is God, our God, in eternity and forever and ever. He will rule us forever.
Jer je ovaj Bog naš Bog uvijek i dovijeka, on æe biti voð naš dovijeka.
