Psalms 97

1 YHWH has reigned, The earth is joyful, many islands rejoice.

Jahve kraljuje: neka kliče zemlja, nek' se vesele otoci mnogi!

2 Cloud and darkness [are] around Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.

Oblak i tama ovijaju njega, pravda i pravo temelji su prijestolja njegova.

3 Fire goes before Him, And burns around His adversaries.

Oganj ide pred njim i sažiže okolo dušmane njegove.

4 His lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has seen, and is pained.

Munje mu svijet osvjetljuju; zemlja to vidi i strepi.

5 Hills, like wax, melted before YHWH, Before the Lord of all the earth.

Brda se tope pred Jahvom k'o vosak, pred vladarom zemlje sve.

6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.

Nebesa navješćuju pravednost njegovu, svi narodi gledaju mu slavu.

7 All servants of a carved image are ashamed, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to Him, all you gods.

Nek' se postide svi što likove štuju i koji se hvale kumirima. Poklonite mu se, svi bozi!

8 Zion has heard and rejoices, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Your judgments, O YHWH.

Sion radostan sluša, gradovi Judini kliču zbog tvojih sudova, o Jahve!

9 For You, YHWH, [are] Most High over all the earth, You have been exalted greatly over all gods.

Jer ti si, o Jahve, Svevišnji - nad svom zemljom, visoko, visoko nad bozima svima.

10 You who love YHWH, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Jahve ljubi one koji mrze na zlo, on čuva duše pobožnika svojih, izbavlja ih iz ruku opakih.

11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And joy for the upright of heart.

Svjetlost sviće pravedniku i radost čestitima u srcu.

12 Rejoice, you righteous, in YHWH, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness!

Radujte se, pravednici, u Jahvi, slavite sveto ime njegovo!
