Psalms 2

1 Therefore did the heathen rage, and the nations imagine vain things?

Zašto se bune narodi i plemena pomišljaju zaludne stvari?

2 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers gathered themselves together, against the Lord, and against his Christ;

Ustaju carevi zemaljski, i knezovi se skupljaju na Gospoda i na pomazanika njegova.

3 [saying], Let us break through their bonds, and cast away their yoke from us.

“Raskinimo sveze njihove i zbacimo sa sebe jaram njihov.”

4 He that dwells in the heavens shall laugh them to scorn, and the Lord shall mock them.

Onaj, što živi na nebesima, smije se, Gospod im se potsmijeva.

5 Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his fury.

Pa im govori u gnjevu svojem i jarošæu svojom zbunjuje ih:

6 But I have been made king by him on Sion his holy mountain,

“Ja sam pomazao cara svojega na Sionu, na svetoj gori svojoj.”

7 declaring the ordinance of the Lord: the Lord said to me, You are my Son, today have I begotten you.

Kazaæu naredbu Gospodnju; on reèe meni: “ti si sin moj, ja te sad rodih.

8 Ask of me, and I will give you the heathen [for] your inheritance, and the ends of the earth [for] your possession.

Išti u mene, i daæu ti narode u našljedstvo, i krajeve zemaljske tebi u državu.

9 You shall rule them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them in pieces as a potter's vessel.

Udariæeš ih gvozdenom palicom; razbiæeš ih kao lonèarski sud.”

10 Now therefore understand, you kings: be instructed, all you that judge the earth.

Sad, carevi, orazumite se; nauèite se sudije zemaljske!

11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice in him with trembling.

Služite Gospodu sa strahom, i radujte se s trepetom.

12 Accept correction, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you should perish from the righteous way: whenever his wrath shall be suddenly kindled, blessed are all they that trust 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!
