Psalms 147
1 Hallelujah; for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is comely; [him] becometh praise.
Hvalite Gospoda; ker dobro je prepevati Bogu našemu; ker prijetno, spodobno je hvaljenje.
2 The Lord buildeth up Jerusalem: the outcasts of Israel will he gather together;
Zidar Jeruzalema Gospod, Izraelce zbira razkropljene.
3 He that healeth the broken-hearted, and bindeth up their hurts;
On ozdravlja potrte v srci in obvezuje v njih bolečinah.
4 Who counteth the number of the stars; who calleth them all by [their] names.
Prešteva zvezd število, kliče jih, kolikor jih je, po imenih.
5 Great is our Lord, and abundant in power: his understanding is immeasurable.
Velik je Gospod, Bog naš, in mnoga moč njegova, razumnost njegova brezmerna.
6 The Lord helpeth up the meek: he bringeth down the wicked to the ground.
Krotke podpira Gospod, hudobne potiska noter do tal.
7 Lift up a song unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praises unto our God with the harp;
Pojte hvalne pesmi Gospodu, na strune prepevajte našemu Bogu.
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who causeth grass to grow upon the mountains;
On zagrinja z gostimi oblaki nebesa; dež napravlja zemlji, daje, da seno rodevajo gore.
9 Who giveth to the beast its food, to the young ravens which cry.
Živež svoj daje živini, mladim krokarjem, ki čivkajo.
10 Not in the strength of the horse hath he delight: nor in the [swiftness of the] legs of man taketh he pleasure.
Moči konjeve se ne veseli, stegna odličnega moža mu niso po volji;
11 The Lord taketh pleasure in those that fear him, that wait for his kindness.
Po volji so Gospodu boječi se njega, kateri imajo nado v milosti njegovi.
12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, the Lord: praise thy God, O Zion.
S hvalo slávi Jeruzalem Gospoda, hvali Boga svojega, o Sijon.
13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children in the midst of thee;
Ker zapahe tvojih vrát utrjuje, sinove tvoje blagoslavlja sredi tebe.
14 He who bestoweth peace in thy borders, who satisfieth thee with the best of wheat;
Mir daje pokrajinam tvojim, z mozgom pšenice te siti.
15 He who sendeth forth his decree unto the earth: how swiftly speedeth his word along!
Ko pošlje govor svoj na zemljo, urno izteče beseda njegova.
16 He who dispenseth snow like wool; who streweth about the hoarfrost like ashes;
Sneg daje kakor volno, slano razsiplje kakor pepél.
17 He who casteth down his ice like pieces: before his cold who can stand?
Led svoj meče dol, kakor koščke; pred mrazom njegovim kdo prebije?
18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and waters run along.
Besedo svojo pošlje in jih raztaja; kakor hitro pihne veter svoj, iztekó vodé.
19 He declareth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his ordinances unto Israel.
Besede svoje naznanja Jakobu; postave svoje in pravice svoje Izraelu.
20 He hath not done so unto any nation: and [his] ordinances— these they know not. Hallelujah.
Ni storil tako nobenemu narodu; zatorej ne poznajo tistih pravic. Aleluja.
