Psalms 84

1 [For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.] How lovely are your dwellings, Jehovah of hosts.

Načelniku godbe pri Giteji, sinovom Koretovim psalm. Kako ljuba so prebivališča tvoja, o Gospod vojnih krdél!

2 My soul longs, yes, yearns for the courts of Jehovah. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

Duša moja hrepeni in koprni, priti v veže Gospodove; srce moje in meso moje vpijeta v hrepenenji po živem Bogu mogočnem.

3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, Jehovah of hosts, my King, and my God.

Celo vrabec najde dom in lastovka si gnezdo, da v njem izvali mladiče svoje – o oltarji tvoji, o Gospod vojnih krdél, kralj moj in Bog moj!

4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are ever praising you. (Selah)

Blagor jim, ki so prebivali v hiši tvoji, ki te zdaj še hvalijo!

5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.

Blagor človeku, kateremu je dano v tebi stopati na steze tvoje po srca svojega želji.

6 Passing through the Valley of Baca, he makes it into a spring. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.

Kateri gredé po murbini dolini, imajo njega za studenec, katere tudi pokriva dež blagoslova,

7 They go from strength to strength. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion.

Kateri hodijo od zbora do zbora, ki se prikaže pred Bogom na Sijonu.

8 Jehovah, the God of hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)

Gospod, Bog vojnih krdél, čuj molitev mojo; poslušaj, o Bog Jakobov!

9 Look, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.

Ščit naš, poglej, o Bog; in glej maziljenca svojega obličje!

10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Ker boljši en dan v vežah tvojih, nego tisoč drugjé; raji hočem stopati čez prag v hiši Boga mojega, nego prebivati v krivice šatorih.

11 For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield. Jehovah will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.

Ker solnce in ščit je Gospod, Bog; milost in slavo daje Gospod; dobrega ne krati njim, ki hodijo v poštenosti.

12 Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.

O Gospod vojnih krdél, blagor človeku, kateri ima zaupanje v tebe!
