¹Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

¹Zašto se bune narodi, zašto puci ludosti snuju?

²The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

²Ustaju kraljevi zemaljski, knezovi se rotÄe protiv Jahve i Pomazanika njegova:

³Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

³"Skršimo okove njihove i jaram njihov zbacimo!"

⁴He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.

⁴Smije se onaj što na nebu stoluje, Gospod im se podruguje.

⁵Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

⁵Tad im veli u svom gnjevu, žestinom ih on zbunjuje:

⁶Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

⁶"TÓa ja kralja svog postavih nad Sionom, svojom svetom gorom."

⁷I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

⁷Obznanjujem odluku Jahvinu: Gospodin mi reče: "Ti si sin moj, danas te rodih.

⁸Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

⁸Zatraži samo, i dat ću ti puke u baštinu, i u posjed krajeve zemaljske.

⁹Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

⁹Vladat ćeš njima palicom gvozdenÄom i razbit ih kao sud lončarski."

¹⁰Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

¹⁰Opametite se sada, vi kraljevi, Urazumite se, suci zemaljski.

¹¹Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

¹¹Služite Jahvi sa strahom, s trepetom se pokorite njemu,

¹²Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

¹²da se ne razgnjevi te ne propadnete na putu, kad uskoro plane srdžba njegova. Blago svima koji se njemu utječu!
