Psalms 2

1 Why have the Gentiles raged, and the people devised vain things?

Zašto se bune narodi i plemena pomišljaju zaludne stvari?

2 The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, against the Lord and against his Christ.

Ustaju carevi zemaljski, i knezovi se skupljaju na Gospoda i na pomazanika njegova.

3 Let us break their bonds asunder: and let us cast away their yoke from us.

“Raskinimo sveze njihove i zbacimo sa sebe jaram njihov.”

4 He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh at them: and the Lord shall deride them.

Onaj, što živi na nebesima, smije se, Gospod im se potsmijeva.

5 Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his rage.

Pa im govori u gnjevu svojem i jarošæu svojom zbunjuje ih:

6 But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, preaching his commandment.

“Ja sam pomazao cara svojega na Sionu, na svetoj gori svojoj.”

7 The Lord hath said to me: Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.

Kazaæu naredbu Gospodnju; on reèe meni: “ti si sin moj, ja te sad rodih.

8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance, and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Išti u mene, i daæu ti narode u našljedstvo, i krajeve zemaljske tebi u državu.

9 Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron, and shalt break them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.

Udariæeš ih gvozdenom palicom; razbiæeš ih kao lonèarski sud.”

10 And now, O ye kings, understand: receive instruction, you that judge the earth.

Sad, carevi, orazumite se; nauèite se sudije zemaljske!

11 Serve ye the Lord with fear: and rejoice unto him with trembling.

Služite Gospodu sa strahom, i radujte se s trepetom.

12 Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you perish from the just way. When his wrath shall be kindled in a short time, blessed are all they that trust in him.

Poštujte sina, da se ne razgnjevi, i vi ne izginete na putu svome; jer æe se gnjev njegov brzo razgorjeti. Blago svjema koji se u nj uzdaju!
