Psalmi 147
1 Hvalite Gospoda, jer je slatko pjevati Boga našega, jer blagome prilikuje hvala.
Praise ye the LORD! For it is good to sing praise to our God; For it is pleasant, and praise is becoming.
2 Gospod zida Jerusalim, sabira rasijane sinove Izrailjeve;
The LORD buildeth up Jerusalem; He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel.
3 Iscjeljuje one koji su skrušena srca, i lijeèi tuge njihove;
He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds.
4 Izbraja mnoštvo zvijezda, i sve ih zove imenom.
He counteth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names.
5 Velik je Gospod naš i velika je krjepost njegova, i razumu njegovu nema mjere.
Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
6 Prihvata smjerne Gospod, a bezbožne ponižava do zemlje.
The LORD lifteth up the lowly; He casteth the wicked down to the ground.
7 Redom pjevajte Gospodu hvalu, udarajte Bogu našemu u gusle.
Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; Sing praises upon the harp to our God!
8 On zastire nebo oblacima, sprema zemlji dažd, èini te raste na gorama trava;
Who covereth the heavens with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who causeth grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 Daje stoci piæu njezinu, i vraniæima, koji vièu k njemu.
He giveth to the cattle their food. And to the young ravens, when they cry.
10 Ne mari za silu konjsku, niti su mu mili kraci èovjeèiji.
He delighteth not in the strength of the horse, He taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 Mili su Gospodu oni koji ga se boje, koji se uzdaju u milost njegovu.
The LORD taketh pleasure in those who fear him, In those who trust in his mercy.
12 Slavi, Jerusalime, Gospoda; hvali Boga svojega, Sione!
Praise the LORD. O Jerusalem! Praise thy God, O Zion!
13 Jer on utvrðuje prijevornice vrata tvojih, blagosilja sinove tvoje u tebi.
For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.
14 Ograðuje meðe tvoje mirom, nasiæava te jedre pšenice.
He maketh peace in thy borders, And satisfieth thee with the finest of the wheat.
15 Šalje govor svoj na zemlju, brzo teèe rijeè njegova.
He sendeth forth his command to the earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
16 Daje snijeg kao vunu, sipa inje kao pepeo.
He giveth snow like wool, And scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
17 Baca grad svoj kao zalogaje, pred mrazom njegovijem ko æe ostati?
He casteth forth his ice like morsels; Who can stand before his cold?
18 Pošlje rijeè svoju, i sve se raskravi; dune duhom svojim, i poteku vode.
He sendeth forth his word, and melteth them; He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 On je javio rijeè svoju Jakovu, naredbe i sudove svoje Izrailju.
He publisheth his word to Jacob, His statutes and laws to Israel.
20 Ovo nije uèinio nijednome drugom narodu, i sudova njegovijeh oni ne znaju. Aliluja!
He hath dealt in this manner with no other nation; And, as for his ordinances, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD!
