Psalms 50
1 A Psalm of Asaph. God, God, the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
Psalam. Asafov. Bog nad bogovima, Jahve, govori i zove zemlju od izlaza sunčeva do zalaza.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth.
Sa Siona predivnog Bog zablista:
3 Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence; a fire devoureth before Him, and round about Him it stormeth mightily.
Bog naš dolazi i ne šuti. Pred njim ide oganj što proždire, oko njega silna bjesni oluja.
4 He calleth to the heavens above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people:
On zove nebesa odozgo i zemlju da sudi narodu svojemu:
5 'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.'
“Saberite mi sve pobožnike koji žrtvom Savez sa mnom sklopiše!”
6 And the heavens declare His righteousness; for God, He is judge. (Selah)
Nebesa objavljuju pravednost njegovu: on je Bog sudac!
7 'Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.
“Slušaj, narode moj, ja ću govoriti, o Izraele, svjedočit ću protiv tebe: ja, Bog - Bog tvoj!
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before Me.
Ne korim te zbog žrtava tvojih - paljenice su tvoje svagda preda mnom.
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.
Neću od doma tvog' uzet junca, ni jaraca iz tvojih torova:
10 For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
tÓa moje su sve životinje šumske, tisuće zvjeradi u gorama mojim.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains; and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.
Znam sve ptice nebeske, moje je sve što se miče u poljima.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.
Kad bih ogladnio, ne bih ti rekao, jer moja je zemlja i sve što je ispunja.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Zar da ja jedem meso bikova ili da pijem krv jaraca?
14 Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High;
Prinesi Bogu žrtvu zahvalnu, ispuni Višnjemu zavjete svoje!
15 And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.'
I zazovi me u dan tjeskobe: oslobodit ću te, a ti ćeš me slaviti.”
16 But unto the wicked God saith: 'What hast thou to do to declare My statutes, and that thou hast taken My covenant in thy mouth?
A grešniku Bog progovara: “Što tumačiš naredbe moje, što mećeš u usta Savez moj?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest My words behind thee.
Ti, komu stega ne prija, te riječi moje iza leđa bacaš?
18 When thou sawest a thief, thou hadst company with him, and with adulterers was thy portion.
Kad tata vidiš, s njime se bratimiš i družiš se s preljubnicima.
19 Thou hast let loose thy mouth for evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Svoja si usta predao pakosti, a jezik ti plete prijevare.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
U društvu na brata govoriš i kaljaš sina matere svoje.
21 These things hast thou done, and should I have kept silence? Thou hadst thought that I was altogether such a one as thyself; but I will reprove thee, and set the cause before thine eyes.
Sve si to činio, a ja da šutim? Zar misliš da sam ja tebi sličan? Pokarat ću te i stavit ću ti sve to pred oči.”
22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
Shvatite ovo svi vi koji Boga zaboraviste, da vas ne pograbim i nitko vas spasiti neće.
23 Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Pravo me štuje onaj koji prinosi žrtvu zahvalnu: i onomu koji hodi stazama pravim - njemu ću pokazati spasenje svoje.
