< Psalms 118 >
1 O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; For his kindness endureth for ever!
Aleluja! Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
2 Let Israel now say, His kindness endureth for ever!
Neka rekne dom Izraelov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
3 Let the house of Aaron now say, His goodness endureth for ever!
Neka rekne dom Aronov: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
4 Let all who fear the LORD say, His kindness endureth for ever!
Svi koji se Jahve boje neka reknu: “Vječna je ljubav njegova!”
5 I called upon the LORD in distress; He heard, and set me in a wide place.
Iz tjeskobe Jahvu ja zazvah: on me usliša i oslobodi.
6 The LORD is on my side, I will not fear: What can man do to me?
Jahve je sa mnom i ja ne strahujem: što mi tko može?
7 The LORD is my helper; I shall see my desire upon my enemies.
Jahve je sa mnom, pomoć moja, i zbunjene gledam dušmane.
8 It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man;
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u čovjeka.
9 It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in princes.
Bolje se Jahvi uteći nego se uzdat' u mogućnike.
10 All the nations beset me around, But in the name of the LORD I destroyed them.
Pogani me okružiše: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
11 They beset me on every side; But in the name of the LORD I destroyed them.
Opkoliše me odasvud: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
12 They beset me around like bees; They were quenched like the fire of thorns, For in the name of the LORD I destroyed them.
Opkoliše me poput pčela, ubod im žeže kao trnje zapaljeno: imenom ih Jahvinim uništih.
13 Thou didst assail me with violence to bring me down! But the LORD was my support.
Gurahu me, gurahu, da me obore, ali mi Jahve pomože.
14 The LORD is my glory and my song; For to him I owe my salvation.
Jahve je moja snaga i pjesma, on mi je spasitelj.
15 The voice of joy and salvation is in the habitations of the righteous: “The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly;
Čuj! Radost i spasenje odzvanja šatorima pravednika: Jahvina se proslavi desnica,
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.”
Jahvina me uzdigne desnica, Jahvina se proslavi desnica!
17 I shall not die, but live, And declare the deeds of the LORD.
Ne, umrijeti neću nego živjeti i kazivat ću djela Jahvina.
18 The LORD hath sorely chastened me, But he hath not given me over to death.
Kaznom teškom kaznio me Jahve, ali me smrti ne preda.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness, That I may go in, and praise the LORD!
Otvorite mi širom vrata pravde: ući ću, Jahvi zahvalit'!
20 This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous enter.
“Ovo su vrata Jahvina, na njih ulaze pravedni!”
21 I praise thee that thou hast heard me, And hast been my salvation.
Zahvalit ću ti što si me uslišio i moj postao spasitelj.
22 “The stone which the builders rejected Hath become the chief corner-stone.
Kamen što ga odbaciše graditelji postade kamen zaglavni.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; It is marvellous in our eyes!
Jahvino je to djelo: kakvo čudo u očima našim!
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it!
Ovo je dan što ga učini Jahve: kličimo i radujmo se njemu!
25 Hear, O LORD! and bless us! Hear, O LORD! and send us prosperity!”
O Jahve, spasenje nam daj! Jahve, sreću nam daj!
26 “Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD! We bless you from the house of the LORD.”
Blagoslovljen koji dolazi u imenu Jahvinu! Blagoslivljamo vas iz Doma Jahvina!
27 “Jehovah is God, he hath shone upon us: Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar!”
Obasjao nas Bog Jahve! Složite povorku s grančicama u ruci sve do rogova žrtvenika.
28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee; Thou art my God, and I will exalt thee!
Ti si Bog moj - tebi zahvaljujem: Bože moj, tebe ja uzvisujem.
29 O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; For his kindness endureth for ever!
Zahvaljujte Jahvi jer je dobar, jer je vječna ljubav njegova!
