< Psalms 2 >

1 Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?
Zašto se bune narodi i plemena pomišljaju zaludne stvari?
2 The kings of the earth have taken their place, and the rulers are fixed in their purpose, against the Lord, and against the king of his selection, saying,
Ustaju carevi zemaljski, i knezovi se skupljaju na Gospoda i na pomazanika njegova.
3 Let their chains be broken, and their cords taken from off us.
“Raskinimo sveze njihove i zbacimo sa sebe jaram njihov.”
4 Then he whose seat is in the heavens will be laughing: the Lord will make sport of them.
Onaj, što živi na nebesima, smije se, Gospod im se potsmijeva.
5 Then will his angry words come to their ears, and by his wrath they will be troubled:
Pa im govori u gnjevu svojem i jarošæu svojom zbunjuje ih:
6 But I have put my king on my holy hill of Zion.
“Ja sam pomazao cara svojega na Sionu, na svetoj gori svojoj.”
7 I will make clear the Lord's decision: he has said to me, You are my son, this day have I given you being.
Kazaæu naredbu Gospodnju; on reèe meni: “ti si sin moj, ja te sad rodih.
8 Make your request to me, and I will give you the nations for your heritage, and the farthest limits of the earth will be under your hand.
Išti u mene, i daæu ti narode u našljedstvo, i krajeve zemaljske tebi u državu.
9 They will be ruled by you with a rod of iron; they will be broken like a potter's vessel.
Udariæeš ih gvozdenom palicom; razbiæeš ih kao lonèarski sud.”
10 So now be wise, you kings: take his teaching, you judges of the earth.
Sad, carevi, orazumite se; nauèite se sudije zemaljske!
11 Give worship to the Lord with fear, kissing his feet and giving him honour,
Služite Gospodu sa strahom, i radujte se s trepetom.
12 For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him.
Poštujte sina, da se ne razgnjevi, i vi ne izginete na putu svome; jer æe se gnjev njegov brzo razgorjeti. Blago svjema koji se u nj uzdaju!
