Psalms 99

1 The Lord reigns; let the nations tremble! He sits on his throne above the cherubim; let the earth shake!

Jahve kraljuje - nek' zadršću narodi; sjedi nad kerubima - zemlja nek' se potrese!

2 The Lord rules supreme in Zion, he is sovereign over all the nations.

Velik je Jahve na Sionu, uzvišen nada sve narode.

3 Let them praise his greatness, and respect him for who he is—for he is holy,

Nek' slave ime tvoje veliko i strašno: ono je sveto!

4 having kingly power. You love justice; you make impartial decisions. You have made sure everything is done in fairness and according to what's right.

Ti kralj si moćan koji ljubiš što je pravo, pravednost ti si utvrdio, pravo i pravednost vršiš u Jakovu.

5 Give respect to the Lord our God! Bow down at his feet, for he is holy!

Uzvisujte Jahvu, Boga našega, padnite pred podnožje njegovo: ono je sveto.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests; Samuel also prayed to him. They called out to the Lord for help, and he answered them.

Mojsije i Aron među svećenicima njegovim i Samuel među onima koji zazivaju ime njegovo: zazivahu Jahvu, i on ih usliša.

7 He spoke to the people from the pillar of cloud, and they kept the laws and decrees he gave them.

Iz stupa od oblaka govoraše njima: slušahu zapovijedi njegove i odredbe što ih dade.

8 Lord our God, you answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, but you punished them when they did wrong.

Jahve, Bože naš, ti si ih uslišivao; Bože, milostiv si bio njima premda si kažnjavao grijehe njihove.

9 Honor the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain. For the Lord our God is holy!

Uzvisujte Jahvu, Boga našega, padnite pred svetu goru njegovu: jer svet je Jahve, Bog naš.
