Psalms 24

1 A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

Psalam. Davidov. Jahvina je zemlja i sve na njoj, svijet i svi koji na njemu žive.

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

On ga na morima utemelji i na rijekama učvrsti.

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? and who shall stand in his holy place?

Tko će uzići na Goru Jahvinu, tko će stajati na svetom mjestu njegovu?

4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, and hath not sworn deceitfully.

Onaj u koga su ruke čiste i srce nedužno: duša mu se ne predaje ispraznosti, i ne kune se varavo.

5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

On blagoslov prima od Jahve i nagradu od Boga, Spasitelja svoga.

6 This is the generation of them that seek after him, that seek thy face, [O God of] Jacob. (Selah)

Takav je naraštaj onih koji traže njega, koji traže lice Boga Jakovljeva.

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors: and the King of glory shall come in.

“Podignite, vrata, nadvratnike svoje, dižite se, dveri vječne, da uniđe Kralj slave!”

8 Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

“Tko je taj Kralj slave?” “Jahve silan i junačan, Jahve silan u boju!”

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors: and the King of glory shall come in.

“Podignite, vrata, nadvratnike svoje dižite se, dveri vječne, da uniđe Kralj slave!”

10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)

“Tko je taj Kralj slave?” “Jahve nad Vojskama - on je Kralj slave!”
