< Psalms 21 >
1 The king shall joy in your strength, O LORD; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
Gospode! s tvoje se sile veseli car; i kako mu je velika radost što ti pomažeš!
2 You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
Što mu je srce željelo, dao si mu, i molitve usta njegovijeh nijesi odbio.
3 For you prevent him with the blessings of goodness: you set a crown of pure gold on his head.
Jer si ga doèekao blagoslovima milosnim, metnuo si mu na glavu vijenac od dragoga kamenja.
4 He asked life of you, and you gave it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
Molio te je za život i dao si mu da mu se produlje dani dovijeka.
5 His glory is great in your salvation: honor and majesty have you laid on him.
Velika je slava njegova tvojom pomoæu; slavu si i krasotu metnuo na nj.
6 For you have made him most blessed for ever: you have made him exceeding glad with your countenance.
Dao si mu blagoslove dovijeka, razveselio si ga radošæu lica svojega.
7 For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
Jer se car uzda u Gospoda i u milost višnjega; i ne koleba se.
8 Your hand shall find out all your enemies: your right hand shall find out those that hate you.
Naæi æe ruka tvoja sve neprijatelje tvoje, naæi æe desnica tvoja one koji mrze na tebe.
9 You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
Uèiniæeš ih kao peæ zažarenu, kad se razgnjeviš; gnjev æe ih Gospodnji progutati, i oganj æe ih proždrijeti.
10 Their fruit shall you destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
Rod njihov istrijebiæeš sa zemlje, i sjeme njihovo izmeðu sinova èovjeèijih;
11 For they intended evil against you: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
Jer podigoše na tebe zlo, smisliše i ne mogoše izvršiti.
12 Therefore shall you make them turn their back, when you shall make ready your arrows on your strings against the face of them.
Jer æeš ih metnuti za biljegu, iz lukova svojijeh pustiæeš strijele u lice njihovo.
13 Be you exalted, LORD, in your own strength: so will we sing and praise your power.
Podigni se, Gospode, silom svojom; mi æemo pjevati i slaviti jakost tvoju.
