< Psalms 108 >
1 “A song or psalm of David.” My heart is firm, O God; I will sing and give praise, even with my spirit.
Pjesma. Psalam. Davidov. Moje je srce sigurno, Bože, sigurno je srce moje: pjevat ću i svirati.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.
Probudi se, dušo moja! Probudi se, harfo i citaro! Probudit ću zoru jutarnju.
3 I will give thee thanks among the people, O Lord: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
Hvalit ću te, Jahve, među narodima, među pucima tebi ću pjevati,
4 For great above the heavens is thy kindness, and thy truth reacheth even unto the skies.
jer do neba je dobrota tvoja, do oblaka tvoja vjernost.
5 Exalt thyself above the heavens, O God; and above all the earth thy glory.
Uzvisi se, Bože, nad nebesa, slava tvoja nek' je nad svom zemljom!
6 In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.
Da ti se ljubimci izbave, desnicom pomozi, usliši nas!
7 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.
Bog reče u svom Svetištu: “Šekem ću razdijelit' kličući, dolinu ću Sukot izmjeriti.
8 Mine id Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs.
Moj je Gilead, moj Manaše, Efrajim mi kaciga, Judeja žezlo moje!
9 Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Moab je sud iz kojeg se umivam, na Edom ću baciti obuću, nad Filistejcem slaviti pobjedu!”
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?
Tko će me dovesti do utvrđena grada, tko će me dovesti do Edoma?
11 Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.
Zar nećeš ti, o Bože, što nas odbaci? Zar nećeš više, Bože, sa četama našim?
12 Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.
Pomozi nam protiv dušmana, jer je ljudska pomoć ništavna!
13 Through God shall we do valiantly; for he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
S Božjom pomoću hrabro ćemo se boriti, Bog će zgaziti naše dušmane.
