Psalms 19
1 “To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” The heavens relate the glory of God; and the expanse telleth of the works of his hands.
Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Nebesa slavu Božju kazuju, naviješta svod nebeski djelo ruku njegovih.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
Dan danu to objavljuje, a noć noći glas predaje.
3 There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard.
Nije to riječ, a ni govor nije, nije ni glas što se može čuti,
4 [But] their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words. For the sun hath he set a tabernacle among them;
al' po zemlji razliježe se jeka, riječi sve do nakraj svijeta sežu. Ondje suncu razape šator,
5 And he goeth out as a bridegroom from his chamber, he is glad like a strong man to run his course;
te ono k'o ženik iz ložnice ide, k'o div kliče kad prelijeće stazu.
6 From the end of the heavens is his going forth, and his circuit is unto their ends: and there is nothing hidden from his heat.
Izlazi ono od nebeskog kraja, i put mu se opet s krajem spaja, ne skriva se ništa žaru njegovu.
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, quieting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
Savršen je Zakon Jahvin - dušu krijepi; pouzdano je Svjedočanstvo Jahvino - neuka uči;
8 The precepts of the Lord are upright, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
prÓava je naredba Jahvina - srce sladi; čista je zapovijed Jahvina - oči prosvjetljuje;
9 The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the ordinances of the Lord are the truth, they are just altogether.
neokaljan strah Jahvin - ostaje svagda; istiniti sudovi Jahvini - svi jednako pravedni,
10 They are those which are to be desired more than gold, and much fine gold; and they are sweeter than honey and the dropping of honeycomb.
dragocjeniji od zlata, od zlata čistoga, slađi od meda, meda samotoka.
11 Moreover thy servant is admonished by them: in keeping them there is great reward.
Sluga tvoj pomno na njih pazi, vrlo brižno on ih čuva.
12 Who can guard against errors? from secret [faults] do thou cleanse me.
Ali tko propuste svoje da zapazi? Od potajnih grijeha očisti me!
13 Also from presumptuous [sins] withhold thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from any great transgression.
Od oholosti čuvaj slugu svoga da mnome ne zavlada. Tad ću biti neokaljan, čist od grijeha velikoga.
14 May the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable before thee, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
Moje ti riječi omiljele i razmišljanje srca moga pred licem tvojim. Jahve, hridi moja, otkupitelju moj!
