Psalms 24

1 Of David. A psalm. The earth is the Lord’s and all that it holds, the world and those who live in it.

Psalam. Davidov. Jahvina je zemlja i sve na njoj, svijet i svi koji na njemu žive.

2 For he founded it on the seas, and on the floods he sustains it.

On ga na morima utemelji i na rijekama učvrsti.

3 Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place?

Tko će uzići na Goru Jahvinu, tko će stajati na svetom mjestu njegovu?

4 The clean of hands, the pure of heart, who sets not their heart upon sinful things, nor swears with intent to deceive:

Onaj u koga su ruke čiste i srce nedužno: duša mu se ne predaje ispraznosti, i ne kune se varavo.

5 they win from the Lord a blessing: God is their champion and savior.

On blagoslov prima od Jahve i nagradu od Boga, Spasitelja svoga.

6 Such must be those who resort to him, and seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

Takav je naraštaj onih koji traže njega, koji traže lice Boga Jakovljeva.

7 Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.

“Podignite, vrata, nadvratnike svoje, dižite se, dveri vječne, da uniđe Kralj slave!”

8 “Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord strong and heroic, the Lord heroic in battle.”

“Tko je taj Kralj slave?” “Jahve silan i junačan, Jahve silan u boju!”

9 Lift high your heads, you gates – Higher, you ancient doors; welcome the glorious king.

“Podignite, vrata, nadvratnike svoje dižite se, dveri vječne, da uniđe Kralj slave!”

10 “Who is the glorious king?” “The Lord, the God of hosts, he is the glorious king.” (Selah)

“Tko je taj Kralj slave?” “Jahve nad Vojskama - on je Kralj slave!”
