Psalms 46
1 God is the one who protects us and causes us to be strong; he is always ready to help us when we have troubles.
Zborovođi. Sinova Korahovih. Po napjevu “Djevice”. Pjesma. Bog nam je zaklon i utvrda, pomoćnik spreman u nevolji.
2 So, even if the earth shakes, we will not be afraid. Even if the mountains fall into the middle of the sea,
Stoga, ne bojmo se kad se ljulja zemlja, kad se bregovi ruše u more.
3 and if the water in the sea roars and foams, and the hills shake violently, we will not be afraid!
Nek' buče i bjesne valovi morski, nek' bregovi dršću od žestine njihove: s nama je Jahve nad Vojskama, naša je utvrda Bog Jakovljev!
4 [Blessings that come from] God are like a river that makes everyone in the city where [we worship] God joyful. It is the city where the temple of God, who is greater than any other god, exists.
Rijeka i rukavci njezini vesele Grad Božji, presveti šator Višnjega.
5 God is in this city, and it will never be destroyed; he will [come to] help [the people in] that city at dawn every day.
Bog je sred njega, poljuljat se neće, od rane zore Bog mu pomaže.
6 [Sometimes] the [people of many] nations are terrified; kingdoms (are overthrown/cease to exist); God speaks [loudly like thunder], and the earth melts (OR, people everywhere become terrified) [MET].
Ma bješnjeli puci, rušila se carstva, kad glas njegov zagrmi, zemlja se rastopi:
7 But Yahweh, the commander of the armies of heaven, is with us; the God whom Jacob worshiped (OR, we Israeli people worship) is our refuge.
s nama je Jahve nad Vojskama, naša je utvrda Bog Jakovljev!
8 Come and (see/think about) the amazing things that Yahweh has done [DOU]!
Dođite, gledajte djela Jahvina, strahote koje on na zemlji učini.
9 He stops wars all over the world; he breaks bows [and arrows]; he destroys spears; he burns up shields.
Do nakraj zemlje on ratove prekida, lukove krši i lomi koplja, štitove ognjem sažiže.
10 [God says], “Be quiet, and remember that I am God! I will be honored by the people of all nations. I will be honored all over the earth.”
Prestanite i znajte da sam ja Bog, uzvišen nad pucima, nad svom zemljom uzvišen!
11 [So never forget that] Yahweh, the commander of the armies of heaven, is with us; the God whom Jacob worshiped (OR, we Israeli people worship) is our refuge.
S nama je Jahve nad Vojskama, naša je utvrda Bog Jakovljev!
