< Psalms 2 >
1 Why have nations tumultuously assembled? And do peoples meditate vanity?
Zašto se bune narodi i plemena pomišljaju zaludne stvari?
2 Station themselves do kings of the earth, And princes have been united together, Against Jehovah, and against His Messiah:
Ustaju carevi zemaljski, i knezovi se skupljaju na Gospoda i na pomazanika njegova.
3 'Let us draw off Their cords, And cast from us Their thick bands.'
“Raskinimo sveze njihove i zbacimo sa sebe jaram njihov.”
4 He who is sitting in the heavens doth laugh, The Lord doth mock at them.
Onaj, što živi na nebesima, smije se, Gospod im se potsmijeva.
5 Then doth He speak unto them in His anger, And in His wrath He doth trouble them:
Pa im govori u gnjevu svojem i jarošæu svojom zbunjuje ih:
6 'And I — I have anointed My King, Upon Zion — My holy hill.'
“Ja sam pomazao cara svojega na Sionu, na svetoj gori svojoj.”
7 I declare concerning a statute: Jehovah said unto me, 'My Son Thou [art], I to-day have brought thee forth.
Kazaæu naredbu Gospodnju; on reèe meni: “ti si sin moj, ja te sad rodih.
8 Ask of Me and I give nations — thy inheritance, And thy possession — the ends of earth.
Išti u mene, i daæu ti narode u našljedstvo, i krajeve zemaljske tebi u državu.
9 Thou dost rule them with a sceptre of iron, As a vessel of a potter Thou dost crush them.'
Udariæeš ih gvozdenom palicom; razbiæeš ih kao lonèarski sud.”
10 And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of earth,
Sad, carevi, orazumite se; nauèite se sudije zemaljske!
11 Serve ye Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
Služite Gospodu sa strahom, i radujte se s trepetom.
12 Kiss the Chosen One, lest He be angry, And ye lose the way, When His anger burneth but a little, O the happiness of all trusting in Him!
Poštujte sina, da se ne razgnjevi, i vi ne izginete na putu svome; jer æe se gnjev njegov brzo razgorjeti. Blago svjema koji se u nj uzdaju!
