< Psalms 146 >
1 PRAISE ye the Lord. Praise the Lord, O my soul.
Aleluja! Hvali, dušo moja, Jahvu!
2 While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
Hvalit ću Jahvu sveg života svojeg. Dok me bude, Bogu svom ću pjevati.
3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
Ne uzdajte se u knezove, u čovjeka od kog nema spasenja!
4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
Iziđe li duh iz njega, u zemlju svoju on se vraća i propadaju sve misli njegove.
5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:
Blago onom kome je pomoćnik Bog Jakovljev, kome je ufanje u Jahvi, Bogu njegovu,
6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:
koji stvori nebo i zemlju, more i sve što je u njima; koji ostaje vjeran dovijeka,
7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth the prisoners:
potlačenima vraća pravicu, a gladnima kruh daje. Jahve oslobađa sužnje,
8 The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind: the Lord raiseth them that are bowed down: the Lord loveth the righteous:
Jahve slijepcima oči otvara. Jahve uspravlja prignute, Jahve ljubi pravedne.
9 The Lord preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
Jahve štiti tuđince, sirote i udovice podupire, a grešnicima mrsi putove.
10 The Lord shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the Lord.
Jahve će kraljevati dovijeka, tvoj Bog, Sione, od koljena do koljena. Aleluja!
