Psalms 147
1 Praise YAH! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant—lovely [is] praise.
Aleluja! Hvalite Jahvu jer je dobar, pjevajte Bogu našem jer je sladak; svake hvale on je dostojan!
2 YHWH [is] building Jerusalem, He gathers the driven away of Israel.
Jahve gradi Jeruzalem, sabire raspršene Izraelce.
3 Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.
On liječi one koji su srca skršena i povija rane njihove.
4 Appointing the number of the stars, He gives names to all of them.
On određuje broj zvijezda, svaku njezinim imenom naziva.
5 Our Lord [is] great, and abundant in power, There is no narration of His understanding.
Velik je naš Gospodin i svesilan, nema mjere mudrosti njegovoj.
6 YHWH is causing the meek to stand, Making the wicked low to the earth.
Jahve pridiže ponizne, zlotvore do zemlje snizuje.
7 Answer to YHWH with thanksgiving, Sing to our God with a harp.
Pjevajte Jahvi pjesmu zahvalnu, svirajte na citari Bogu našem!
8 Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing rain for the earth, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,
Oblacima on prekriva nebesa i zemlji kišu sprema; daje da po bregovima raste trava i bilje na službu čovjeku.
9 Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.
On stoci hranu daje i mladim gavranima kada grakću.
10 He does not delight in the might of the horse, He is not pleased in the legs of a man.
Za konjsku snagu on ne mari nit' mu se mile bedra čovječja.
11 YHWH is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.
Mili su Jahvi oni koji se njega boje, koji se uzdaju u dobrotu njegovu.
12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, YHWH, Praise your God, O Zion.
Slavi Jahvu, Jeruzaleme, hvali Boga svoga, Sione!
13 For He strengthened the bars of your gates, He has blessed your sons in your midst.
On učvrsti zasune vrata tvojih, blagoslovi u tebi tvoje sinove.
14 Who is making your border peace, He satisfies you [with] the fat of wheat.
On dade mir granicama tvojim, pšenicom te hrani najboljom.
15 Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, His word runs very speedily.
Besjedu svoju šalje na zemlju, brzo trči riječ njegova.
16 Who is giving snow like wool, He scatters hoarfrost as ashes.
Kao vunu snijeg razbacuje, prosipa mraz poput pepela.
17 Casting forth His ice like morsels, Who stands before His cold?
On sipa grÓad kao zalogaje, voda mrzne od njegove studeni.
18 He sends forth His word and melts them, He causes His wind to blow—the waters flow.
Riječ svoju pošalje i vode se tope; dunu vjetrom i vode otječu.
19 Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
Riječ svoju on objavi Jakovu, odluke svoje i zakone Izraelu.
20 He has not done so to any nation, As for judgments, they have not known them. Praise YAH!
Ne učini tako nijednom narodu: nijednom naredbe svoje ne objavi! Aleluja!
