Psalms 48
1 A song; a psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is Yahweh and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God on his holy mountain.
Pjesma. Psalam. Sinova Korahovih. Velik je Jahve, hvale predostojan u gradu Boga našega.
2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
Sveto brdo njegovo, brijeg veličanstven, radost je zemlji svoj. Gora Sion, na krajnjem sjeveru, grad je Kralja velikog.
3 God has made himself known in her palaces as a refuge.
Bog u kulama njegovim jakom se pokaza utvrdom.
4 For, see, the kings assembled themselves; they passed by together.
Jer gle, složiše se kraljevi, navališe zajedno.
5 They saw it, then they were amazed; they were dismayed, and they hurried away.
Čim vidješe, zapanjiše se i zbunjeni u bijeg nagnuše.
6 Trembling took hold of them there, pain as when a woman is in labor.
Ondje ih trepet obuze kao muka porodilje,
7 With the east wind you break the ships of Tarshish.
kao kad vjetar istočni razbija brodove taršiške.
8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of Yahweh of hosts, in the city of our God; God will establish it forever. (Selah)
Što smo čuli, sada vidimo: grad Jahve nad Vojskama, grad Boga našega - Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
9 We have thought about your covenant faithfulness, God, in the middle of your temple.
Spominjemo se, Bože, tvoje dobrote usred Hrama tvojega.
10 As your name is, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth; your right hand is full of righteousness.
Kao ime tvoje, Bože, tako i slava tvoja do nakraj zemlje doseže. Puna je pravde desnica tvoja; neka se raduje brdo sionsko!
11 Let Mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your righteous decrees.
Neka kliču gradovi Judini zbog tvojih sudova!
12 Walk around Mount Zion, go round about her; count her towers,
Obiđite Sion i prođite njime, prebrojite kule njegove!
13 notice well her walls, and look at her palaces so that you may tell it to the next generation.
Pogledajte dobro bedeme njegove, promotrite mu potanko dvorove: da biste kazivali budućem koljenu:
14 For this God is our God forever and ever; he will be our guide to death.
“Takav je Bog, Bog naš zasvagda i dovijeka! On neka nas vodi!”
