< Psalms 2 >

1 Why are the nations in turmoil, and why do the peoples make plots that will fail?
Zašto se bune narodi, zašto puci ludosti snuju?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand together and the rulers conspire together against Yahweh and against his Messiah, saying,
Ustaju kraljevi zemaljski, knezovi se rotÄe protiv Jahve i Pomazanika njegova:
3 “Let us tear off the shackles they put on us and throw off their chains.”
“Skršimo okove njihove i jaram njihov zbacimo!”
4 He who sits in the heavens will sneer at them; the Lord mocks them.
Smije se onaj što na nebu stoluje, Gospod im se podruguje.
5 Then he will speak to them in his anger and terrify them in his rage, saying,
Tad im veli u svom gnjevu, žestinom ih on zbunjuje:
6 “I myself have anointed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”
“TÓa ja kralja svog postavih nad Sionom, svojom svetom gorom.”
7 I will announce a decree of Yahweh. He said to me, “You are my son! This day I have become your father.
Obznanjujem odluku Jahvinu: Gospodin mi reče: “Ti si sin moj, danas te rodih.
8 Ask me, and I will give you the nations for your inheritance and the farthermost regions of the earth for your possession.
Zatraži samo, i dat ću ti puke u baštinu, i u posjed krajeve zemaljske.
9 You will break them with an iron rod; like a jar of a potter, you will smash them to pieces.”
Vladat ćeš njima palicom gvozdenÄom i razbit ih kao sud lončarski.”
10 So now, you kings, be warned; be corrected, you rulers of the earth.
Opametite se sada, vi kraljevi, Urazumite se, suci zemaljski.
11 Worship Yahweh in fear and rejoice with trembling.
Služite Jahvi sa strahom, s trepetom se pokorite njemu,
12 Kiss the son or he will be angry with you, and you will die in the way when his anger burns for just a moment. How blessed are all those who seek refuge in him.
da se ne razgnjevi te ne propadnete na putu, kad uskoro plane srdžba njegova. Blago svima koji se njemu utječu!
