< Psalms 72 >
1 [A Psalm] for Solomon. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness to the king's son.
Salomonov. Bože, sud svoj daj kralju i svoju pravdu sinu kraljevu.
2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
Nek' puku tvojem sudi pravedno, siromasima po pravici!
3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.
Nek' bregovi narodu urode mirom, a brežuljci pravdom.
4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.
Sudit će pravo ubogim pučanima, djeci siromaha donijet će spasenje, a tlačitelja on će smrviti.
5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.
I živjet će dugo kao sunce i kao mjesec u sva pokoljenja.
6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers [that] water the earth.
Sići će kao rosa na travu, kao kiša što natapa zemlju!
7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.
U danima njegovim cvjetat će pravda i mir velik - sve dok bude mjeseca.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
I vladat će od mora do mora i od Rijeke do granica svijeta.
9 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
Dušmani će njegovi preda nj kleknuti i protivnici lizati prašinu.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
Kraljevi Taršiša i otoka nosit će dare, vladari od Arabije i Sabe danak donositi.
11 Yes, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
Klanjat će mu se svi vladari, svi će mu narodi služiti.
12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and [him] that hath no helper.
On će spasiti siromaha koji uzdiše, nevoljnika koji pomoćnika nema;
13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
smilovat će se ubogu i siromahu i spasit će život nevoljniku:
14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall be their blood in his sight.
oslobodit će ih nepravde i nasilja, jer je dragocjena u njegovim očima krv njihova.
15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; [and] daily shall he be praised.
Stog' neka živi! Neka ga daruju zlatom iz Arabije, nek' mole za njega svagda i neka ga blagoslivljaju!
16 There shall be a handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit of it shall shake like Lebanon: and [they] of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
Nek' bude izobila žita u zemlji, po vrhuncima klasje neka šušti k'o Libanon! I cvjetali stanovnici gradova kao trava na livadi.
17 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and [men] shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
Bilo ime njegovo blagoslovljeno dovijeka! Dok je sunca, živjelo mu ime! Njim se blagoslivljala sva plemena zemlje, svi narodi nazivali blaženima!
18 Blessed [be] the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
Blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, koji jedini tvori čudesa!
19 And blessed [be] his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled [with] his glory; Amen, and amen.
I blagoslovljeno slavno mu ime dovijeka! Sva se zemlja napunila slave njegove! Tako neka bude. Amen!
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
Time se završavaju molitve Jišajeva sina Davida.
