Psalms 48

1 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

Pesem in psalm naslednikom Koretovim. Velik je Gospod in hvaljen silno, v mestu Boga našega, na gori svetosti svoje:

2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.

V lepoti kraja, veselji vse zemlje, na gori Sijonski, na severni strani v mestu kralja vélikega.

3 God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.

Bog v dvorih njegovih spoznava se za grad.

4 For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.

Ker, glej, sešli so se kralji, šli so vkup.

5 They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.

Sami so videli, vkup so strmeli, zmedli so se, izbežali urno.

6 Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.

Trepet jih je obšel tam, bolečina kakor porodnico.

7 With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.

Z burjo razbijaš ladije morske.

8 As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of Yahweh of Armies, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever. (Selah)

Kakor smo slišali, tako smo videli v mestu Gospoda vojnih krdél, v mestu Boga našega; Bog ga utrjuje na veke.

9 We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the middle of your temple.

Milost tvojo premišljamo, o Bog, sredi tvojega svetišča.

10 As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.

Kakor ime tvoje, tako je slava tvoja noter do krajev zemlje; pravice je polna desnica tvoja.

11 Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments.

Veselí se naj gora Sijonska, radujejo se hčere Judove zavoljo sodeb tvojih.

12 Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers.

Obhajajte Sijon, in obdajajte ga; štejte stolpe njegove.

13 Notice her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation.

Upirajte misli svoje na trdnjavo, povzdignite oči k dvorom njegovim, da oznanjate prihodnjemu rodu.

14 For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.

Ker ta je naš Bog na vedno večne čase; ta nas bode vodil noter do smrti.
