Psalms 48
1 A SONG. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, In the city of our God—His holy hill.
Pjesma. Psalam. Sinova Korahovih. Velik je Jahve, hvale predostojan u gradu Boga našega.
2 Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of [the] great King.
Sveto brdo njegovo, brijeg veličanstven, radost je zemlji svoj. Gora Sion, na krajnjem sjeveru, grad je Kralja velikog.
3 God is known for a tower in her high places.
Bog u kulama njegovim jakom se pokaza utvrdom.
4 For behold, the kings met, they passed by together,
Jer gle, složiše se kraljevi, navališe zajedno.
5 They have seen—so they have marveled, They have been troubled, they were hurried away.
Čim vidješe, zapanjiše se i zbunjeni u bijeg nagnuše.
6 Trembling has seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.
Ondje ih trepet obuze kao muka porodilje,
7 By an east wind You shatter ships of Tarshish.
kao kad vjetar istočni razbija brodove taršiške.
8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of YHWH of hosts, In the city of our God, God establishes her for all time. (Selah)
Što smo čuli, sada vidimo: grad Jahve nad Vojskama, grad Boga našega - Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
9 We have thought, O God, of Your kindness, In the midst of Your temple,
Spominjemo se, Bože, tvoje dobrote usred Hrama tvojega.
10 As [is] Your Name, O God, so [is] Your praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness has filled Your right hand.
Kao ime tvoje, Bože, tako i slava tvoja do nakraj zemlje doseže. Puna je pravde desnica tvoja; neka se raduje brdo sionsko!
11 Mount Zion rejoices, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Your judgments.
Neka kliču gradovi Judini zbog tvojih sudova!
12 Surround Zion, and go around her, count her towers,
Obiđite Sion i prođite njime, prebrojite kule njegove!
13 Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that you recount to a later generation,
Pogledajte dobro bedeme njegove, promotrite mu potanko dvorove: da biste kazivali budućem koljenu:
14 That this God [is] our God—For all time and forever, He leads us over death!
“Takav je Bog, Bog naš zasvagda i dovijeka! On neka nas vodi!”
