Psalms 50
1 A Psalm by Asaph. The Mighty One, God, the LORD, speaks, and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset.
Psalam. Asafov. Bog nad bogovima, Jahve, govori i zove zemlju od izlaza sunčeva do zalaza.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines out.
Sa Siona predivnog Bog zablista:
3 Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.
Bog naš dolazi i ne šuti. Pred njim ide oganj što proždire, oko njega silna bjesni oluja.
4 He calls to the heavens above, to the earth, that he may judge his people:
On zove nebesa odozgo i zemlju da sudi narodu svojemu:
5 “Gather my holy ones together to me, those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
“Saberite mi sve pobožnike koji žrtvom Savez sa mnom sklopiše!”
6 The heavens shall declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge. (Selah)
Nebesa objavljuju pravednost njegovu: on je Bog sudac!
7 “Hear, my people, and I will speak. Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.
“Slušaj, narode moj, ja ću govoriti, o Izraele, svjedočit ću protiv tebe: ja, Bog - Bog tvoj!
8 I don’t rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.
Ne korim te zbog žrtava tvojih - paljenice su tvoje svagda preda mnom.
9 I have no need for a bull from your stall, nor male goats from your pens.
Neću od doma tvog' uzet junca, ni jaraca iz tvojih torova:
10 For every animal of the forest is mine, and the livestock on a thousand hills.
tÓa moje su sve životinje šumske, tisuće zvjeradi u gorama mojim.
11 I know all the birds of the mountains. The wild animals of the field are mine.
Znam sve ptice nebeske, moje je sve što se miče u poljima.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
Kad bih ogladnio, ne bih ti rekao, jer moja je zemlja i sve što je ispunja.
13 Will I eat the meat of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Zar da ja jedem meso bikova ili da pijem krv jaraca?
14 Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High.
Prinesi Bogu žrtvu zahvalnu, ispuni Višnjemu zavjete svoje!
15 Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honour me.”
I zazovi me u dan tjeskobe: oslobodit ću te, a ti ćeš me slaviti.”
16 But to the wicked God says, “What right do you have to declare my statutes, that you have taken my covenant on your lips,
A grešniku Bog progovara: “Što tumačiš naredbe moje, što mećeš u usta Savez moj?
17 since you hate instruction, and throw my words behind you?
Ti, komu stega ne prija, te riječi moje iza leđa bacaš?
18 When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.
Kad tata vidiš, s njime se bratimiš i družiš se s preljubnicima.
19 “You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.
Svoja si usta predao pakosti, a jezik ti plete prijevare.
20 You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother’s son.
U društvu na brata govoriš i kaljaš sina matere svoje.
21 You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.
Sve si to činio, a ja da šutim? Zar misliš da sam ja tebi sličan? Pokarat ću te i stavit ću ti sve to pred oči.”
22 “Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you into pieces, and there be no one to deliver.
Shvatite ovo svi vi koji Boga zaboraviste, da vas ne pograbim i nitko vas spasiti neće.
23 Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s salvation to him.”
Pravo me štuje onaj koji prinosi žrtvu zahvalnu: i onomu koji hodi stazama pravim - njemu ću pokazati spasenje svoje.
