< Psalmi 132 >

1 Opomeni se, Gospode, Davida i sve smjernosti njegove,
Yahweh, do not forget [King] David and all the hardships/troubles he endured!
2 Kako se kunijaše Gospodu, i zavjetovaše Bogu Jakovljevu:
He made a solemn promise to you, the mighty God whom [our ancestor] Jacob [worshiped].
3 “Neæu uæi u šator doma svojega, niti æu leæi na postelju odra svojega;
He said, “I will not go home, I will not [rest] on my bed,
4 Neæu dati sna oèima svojima, ni vjeðama svojima drijema;
I will not sleep at all
5 Dok ne naðem mjesta Gospodu, stana Bogu Jakovljevu.”
until I build a place for Yahweh, a home for the mighty God whom Jacob [worshiped].”
6 Evo, èusmo da je u Jefremovoj zemlji, naðosmo ga na poljima Kirijat-Jarimskim.
In Bethlehem we heard news about the sacred chest. We [went and] found it in the fields of Jearim [city, and we took it to Jerusalem].
7 Uðimo u stan njegov, poklonimo se podnožju nogu njegovijeh.
[Later we said], “Let’s go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]; let’s worship [there] in front of the throne [where he sits].”
8 Stani, Gospode, na poèivalištu svojem, ti i kovèeg sile tvoje.
Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally, to the place where your sacred chest is, to that place that shows that you are very powerful.
9 Sveštenici tvoji nek se obuku u pravdu, i sveci tvoji nek se raduju.
I want/desire that the righteous behavior of your priests [will always be evident], [just like the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET], and that your people will [always] shout joyfully.
10 Radi Davida sluge svojega nemoj odvratiti lica od pomazanika svojega.
You chose David to serve you [as king of Israel]; do not reject/abandon him!
11 Zakle se Gospod Davidu u istini, od koje neæe otstupiti; od poroda tvojega posadiæu na prijestolu tvojemu.
Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David, a promise that you will not break. You said, “I will cause your descendants to rule [MTY] as kings like you.
12 Ako sinovi tvoji ušèuvaju zavjet moj i otkrivenja moja kojima æu ih nauèiti, onda æe i sinovi njihovi dovijeka sjedjeti na prijestolu svom.
If they keep my agreement with them and obey [all] the commands that I will give them, the line of kings descended from you will never end.”
13 Jer je izabrao Gospod Sion, i omilje mu živjeti na njemu.
Yahweh has chosen Jerusalem; he has wanted to make that city his home;
14 Ovo je poèivalište moje uvijek, ovdje æu se naseliti; jer mi je omiljelo.
he said, “This is the city where I will live forever [DOU]; this is the place where I wanted to stay.
15 Hranu æu njegovu blagosloviti, nište njegove nasitiæu hljeba.
I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need; I will give [enough] food [even] to satisfy the poor people there.
16 Sveštenike æu njegove obuæi u spasenje, i sveti æe se njegovi radovati.
I will cause the priests [to behave in a manner worthy of] being ones whom I have saved; [that will be as evident as the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET]; and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
17 Tu æu uèiniti da uzraste rog Davidu, postaviæu vidjelo pomazaniku svojemu.
There [in Jerusalem] I will cause one of David’s descendants [MET] to become a great king; he also will be my chosen king, and he will be [like a bright] lamp [MET] [that shines continually].
18 Neprijatelje æu njegove obuæi u sramotu; a na njemu æe cvjetati vijenac njegov.
I will [defeat his] enemies and cause them to be very ashamed/disgraced; but the crown that my king wears will [always] shine.”
