< Psalms 48 >
1 The song of salm, of the sones of Chore. The Lord is greet, and worthi to be preisid ful myche; in the citee of oure God, in the hooli hil of hym.
Pjesma. Psalam. Sinova Korahovih. Velik je Jahve, hvale predostojan u gradu Boga našega.
2 It is foundid in the ful out ioiyng of al erthe; the hil of Syon; the sidis of the north, the citee of the greet kyng.
Sveto brdo njegovo, brijeg veličanstven, radost je zemlji svoj. Gora Sion, na krajnjem sjeveru, grad je Kralja velikog.
3 God schal be knowun in the housis therof; whanne he schal take it.
Bog u kulama njegovim jakom se pokaza utvrdom.
4 For lo! the kyngis of erthe weren gaderid togidere; thei camen into o place.
Jer gle, složiše se kraljevi, navališe zajedno.
5 Thei seynge so wondriden; thei weren disturblid, thei weren mouyd togidere, tremblyng took hem.
Čim vidješe, zapanjiše se i zbunjeni u bijeg nagnuše.
6 There sorewis as of a womman trauelynge of child;
Ondje ih trepet obuze kao muka porodilje,
7 in a greet spirit thou schalt al to-breke the schippis of Tharsis.
kao kad vjetar istočni razbija brodove taršiške.
8 As we herden, so we sien, in the citee of the Lord of vertues, in the citee of oure God; God hath foundid that citee with outen ende.
Što smo čuli, sada vidimo: grad Jahve nad Vojskama, grad Boga našega - Bog ga utvrdi dovijeka.
9 God, we han resseyued thi mercy; in the myddis of thi temple.
Spominjemo se, Bože, tvoje dobrote usred Hrama tvojega.
10 Aftir thi name, God, so thin heriyng is spred abrood in to the endis of erthe; thi riyt hond is ful of riytfulnesse.
Kao ime tvoje, Bože, tako i slava tvoja do nakraj zemlje doseže. Puna je pravde desnica tvoja; neka se raduje brdo sionsko!
11 The hil of Sion be glad, and the douytris of Judee be fulli ioiful; for thi domes, Lord.
Neka kliču gradovi Judini zbog tvojih sudova!
12 Cumpasse ye Syon, and biclippe ye it; telle ye in the touris therof.
Obiđite Sion i prođite njime, prebrojite kule njegove!
13 Sette ye youre hertis in the vertu of him; and departe ye the housis of hym, that ye telle out in an other generacioun.
Pogledajte dobro bedeme njegove, promotrite mu potanko dvorove: da biste kazivali budućem koljenu:
14 For this is God, oure God, in to withouten ende, and in to the world of world; he schal gouerne vs in to worldis.
“Takav je Bog, Bog naš zasvagda i dovijeka! On neka nas vodi!”
