Psalms 138

1 Yahweh, I thank you with all my inner being. I sing to praise you in front of [the idols of false] gods [to ridicule/belittle them].

Slavim te, Gospode, od svega srca svojega, pred bogovima pjevam tebi.

2 I bow down while I look towards your sacred temple, and I thank you [MTY] because you faithfully love [us] and faithfully do all that you have promised. You have shown that both you [MTY] and what you have promised to do are greater than anything else.

Poklanjam se pred svetom crkvom tvojom, i slavim ime tvoje, za dobrotu tvoju i za istinu tvoju; jer si po svakom imenu svom podigao rijeè svoju.

3 On the day when I called out to you, you answered me; you enabled me to be strong and brave.

U dan, u koji zazvah, ti si me uslišio, dunuo slobodu u dušu moju.

4 Yahweh, [some day] all the kings of this earth will praise you, because they will have heard what you have said.

Slaviæe te, Gospode, svi carevi zemaljski, kad èuju rijeèi usta tvojih;

5 They will sing about what you have done; they will sing and say that you are very great.

I pjevaæe putove Gospodnje, jer je velika slava Gospodnja.

6 Yahweh, you are supreme, but you take care of people [who are considered to be] unimportant. And you know what proud people [are doing], even though they are far away [from you and think that you do not see them].

Jer je visok Gospod, i vidi niskoga, i visokoga izdaleka poznaje.

7 When I am in the midst of [many] troubles/difficulties, you save/rescue me. With your hand/power [MTY] you rescue me from my enemies who are angry at me.

Ako poðem u tuzi, ti æeš me oživiti; na zloæu neprijatelja mojih pružiæeš ruku svoju i zakloniæe me desnica tvoja.

8 Yahweh, you will do for me everything that you promised; you faithfully love [us] forever. Finish what you started to do [for us, your Israeli people.]

Gospod æe svršiti za mene. Gospode! milost je tvoja dovijeka; djela ruku svojih ne ostavljaj.
