< Psalms 84 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. How beloved Your dwelling places, YHWH of Hosts!
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Tijesci”. Sinova Korahovih. Kako su mili stanovi tvoji, Jahve nad Vojskama!
2 My soul desired, indeed, it has also been consumed, For the courts of YHWH, My heart and my flesh cry aloud to the living God,
Duša mi gine i čezne za dvorima Jahvinim. Srce moje i moje tijelo kliču Bogu živomu.
3 Even a sparrow has found a house, And a swallow a nest for herself, Where she has placed her brood—Your altars, O YHWH of Hosts, My king and my God.
I vrabac sebi log nalazi, i lastavica gnjezdašce gdje će položiti mlade svoje:
4 O the blessedness of those inhabiting Your house, Yet they praise You. (Selah)
a ja žrtvenike tvoje, Jahve nad Vojskama, Kralju moj i Bože moj! Blaženi koji prebivaju u Domu tvome slaveć' te bez prestanka!
5 O the blessedness of a man whose strength is in You, Highways [are] in their heart.
Blažen komu je pomoć u tebi dok se sprema na svete putove!
6 Those passing through a valley of weeping make it a spring, The early rain covers it with pools.
Prolaze li suhom dolinom, u izvor je vode promeću i prva je kiša u blagoslov odijeva.
7 They go from strength to strength, He appears to God in Zion.
Snaga im raste od časa do časa: dok ne ugledaju Boga na Sionu.
8 O YHWH, God of Hosts, hear my prayer, Give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
Jahve, Bože nad Vojskama, čuj molitvu moju, poslušaj, Bože Jakovljev!
9 Our shield, see, O God, And behold the face of Your anointed,
Pogledaj, štite naš, Bože, pogledaj lice pomazanika svoga!
10 For a day in Your courts [is] good, O Teacher! I have chosen rather to be at the threshold, In the house of my God, Than to dwell in tents of wickedness.
Zaista, jedan je dan u dvorima tvojim bolji od tisuću drugih. Volim biti na pragu Doma Boga svoga nego boraviti u šatorima grešnika.
11 For YHWH God [is] a sun and a shield, YHWH gives grace and glory. He does not withhold good To those walking in uprightness.
Jahve, Bog, sunce je i štit: on daje milost i slavu. Ne uskraćuje Jahve dobara onima koji idu u nedužnosti.
12 YHWH of Hosts! O the blessedness of a man trusting in You.
Jahve nad Vojskama, blago onom tko se u te uzda.
