< Psalms 118 >
1 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.'
Aleluja! Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
2 So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever,
Neka rekne dom Izraelov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
3 So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Neka rekne dom Aronov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
4 So let them now that fear the LORD say, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Svi koji se Jahve boje neka reknu: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
5 Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement.
Iz tjeskobe Jahvu ja zazvah: on me usliša i oslobodi.
6 The LORD is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?
Jahve je sa mnom i ja ne strahujem: što mi tko može?
7 The LORD is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me.
Jahve je sa mnom, pomoć moja, i zbunjene gledam dušmane.
8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u čovjeka.
9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u mogućnike.
10 All nations compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Pogani me okružiše: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
11 They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Opkoliše me odasvud: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
12 They compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.
Opkoliše me poput pčela, ubod im žeže kao trnje zapaljeno: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
13 Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but the LORD helped me.
Gurahu me, gurahu, da me obore, ali mi Jahve pomože.
14 The LORD is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation.
Jahve je moja snaga i pjesma, on mi je spasitelj.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
Čuj! Radost i spasenje odzvanja šatorima pravednika: Jahvina se proslavi desnica,
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
Jahvina me uzdigne desnica, Jahvina se proslavi desnica!
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
Ne, umrijeti neću nego živjeti i kazivat ću djela Jahvina.
18 The LORD hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death.
Kaznom teškom kaznio me Jahve, ali me smrti ne preda.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD.
Otvorite mi širom vrata pravde: ući ću, Jahvi zahvalit'!
20 This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it.
“Ovo su vrata Jahvina, na njih ulaze pravedni!”
21 I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation.
Zahvalit ću ti što si me uslišio i moj postao spasitelj.
22 The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone.
Kamen što ga odbaciše graditelji postade kamen zaglavni.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
Jahvino je to djelo: kakvo čudo u očima našim!
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Ovo je dan što ga učini Jahve: kličimo i radujmo se njemu!
25 We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper!
O Jahve, spasenje nam daj! Jahve, sreću nam daj!
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; we bless you out of the house of the LORD.
Blagoslovljen koji dolazi u imenu Jahvinu! Blagoslivljamo vas iz Doma Jahvina!
27 The LORD is God, and hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar.
Obasjao nas Bog Jahve! Složite povorku s grančicama u ruci sve do rogova žrtvenika.
28 Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.
Ti si Bog moj - tebi zahvaljujem: Bože moj, tebe ja uzvisujem.
29 O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
