Psalmi 21

1 Gospode! s tvoje se sile veseli car; i kako mu je velika radost što ti pomažeš!

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

2 Što mu je srce željelo, dao si mu, i molitve usta njegovijeh nijesi odbio.

Thou hast given him his heart’s desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. (Selah)

3 Jer si ga doèekao blagoslovima milosnim, metnuo si mu na glavu vijenac od dragoga kamenja.

For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.

4 Molio te je za život i dao si mu da mu se produlje dani dovijeka.

He asked life of thee, [and] thou gavest [it] him, [even] length of days for ever and ever.

5 Velika je slava njegova tvojom pomoæu; slavu si i krasotu metnuo na nj.

His glory [is] great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

6 Dao si mu blagoslove dovijeka, razveselio si ga radošæu lica svojega.

For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.

7 Jer se car uzda u Gospoda i u milost višnjega; i ne koleba se.

For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

8 Naæi æe ruka tvoja sve neprijatelje tvoje, naæi æe desnica tvoja one koji mrze na tebe.

Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

9 Uèiniæeš ih kao peæ zažarenu, kad se razgnjeviš; gnjev æe ih Gospodnji progutati, i oganj æe ih proždrijeti.

Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

10 Rod njihov istrijebiæeš sa zemlje, i sjeme njihovo izmeðu sinova èovjeèijih;

Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

11 Jer podigoše na tebe zlo, smisliše i ne mogoše izvršiti.

For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, [which] they are not able [to perform].

12 Jer æeš ih metnuti za biljegu, iz lukova svojijeh pustiæeš strijele u lice njihovo.

Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, [when] thou shalt make ready [thine arrows] upon thy strings against the face of them.

13 Podigni se, Gospode, silom svojom; mi æemo pjevati i slaviti jakost tvoju.

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: [so] will we sing and praise thy power.
