Psalms 147
1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, because the psalm is good. Delightful and beautiful praise shall be for our God.
Hvalite Gospoda, kajti dobro je peti hvalnice našemu Bogu, kajti to je prijetno in hvala je ljubka.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem. He will gather together the dispersed of Israel.
Gospod je zgradil Jeruzalem; skupaj zbira Izraelove pregnance.
3 He heals the contrite of heart, and he binds up their sorrows.
Ozdravlja potrte v srcu in povezuje njihove rane.
4 He numbers the multitude of the stars, and he calls them all by their names.
Šteje število zvezd, vse jih kliče po njihovih imenih.
5 Great is our Lord, and great is his virtue. And of his wisdom, there is no number.
Velik je naš Gospod in zelo močan, njegovo razumevanje je neskončno.
6 The Lord lifts up the meek, but he brings down the sinner, even to the ground.
Gospod dviguje krotke; zlobne podira k tlom.
7 Sing before the Lord with confession. Play psalms to our God on a stringed instrument.
Pojte Gospodu z zahvaljevanjem, našemu Bogu pojte hvalo na harfo,
8 He covers heaven with clouds, and he prepares rain for the earth. He produces grass on the mountains and herbs for the service of men.
ki nebo pokriva z oblaki, ki za zemljo pripravlja dež, ki daje travi, da raste po gorah.
9 He gives their food to beasts of burden and to young ravens that call upon him.
On daje živali njeno hrano in mladim krokarjem, ki kličejo.
10 He will not have good will for the strength of the horse, nor will he be well pleased with the legs of a man.
Ne razveseljuje se v moči konja. Ne veseli se človeških nog.
11 The Lord is well pleased with those who fear him and with those who hope in his mercy.
Gospod se veseli tistih, ki se ga bojijo, tistih, ki upajo v njegovo usmiljenje.
12 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem. Praise your God, O Zion.
Hvali Gospoda, oh Jeruzalem, hvali svojega Boga, oh Sion.
13 For he has reinforced the bars of your gates. He has blessed your sons within you.
Kajti utrjuje zapahe tvojih velikih vrat, tvoje otroke je blagoslovil znotraj tebe.
14 He has stationed peace at your borders, and he has satisfied you with the fat of the grain.
Na tvojih mejah daje mir in te nasičuje z najodličnejšo pšenico.
15 He sends forth his eloquence to the earth. His word runs swiftly.
Svojo zapoved pošilja na zemljo; njegova beseda teče zelo naglo.
16 He provides snow like wool. He strews clouds like ashes.
Sneg daje kakor volno, slano razsiplje kakor pepel.
17 He sends his ice crystals like morsels. Who can stand firm before the face of his cold?
Svoj led meče kakor koščke; kdo lahko obstane pred njegovim mrazom?
18 He will send forth his word, and it will melt them. His Spirit will breathe out, and the waters will flow.
Razpošilja svojo besedo in jih topi; svojemu vetru povzroča, da piha in vodam, [da] tečejo.
19 He announces his word to Jacob, his justices and his judgments to Israel.
Svojo besedo kaže Jakobu, svoje zakone in svoje sodbe Izraelu.
20 He has not done so much for every nation, and he has not made his judgments manifest to them. Alleluia.
Z nobenim narodom ni tako postopal in glede njegovih sodb, jih oni niso spoznali. Hvalite Gospoda.
