Psalm 50
King James Version (KJV)
English text followed by Croatian / Engleski tekst slijede hrvatski

1 The mighty God, even the Lord, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.
3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
4 He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.
7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God.
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goats out of thy folds.
10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof.
13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and casteth my words behind thee.
18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.
19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
23 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.

1 Psalam. Asafov. Bog nad bogovima, Jahve, govori i zove zemlju od izlaza sunčeva do zalaza.
2 Sa Siona predivnog Bog zablista:
3 Bog naš dolazi i ne šuti. Pred njim ide oganj što proždire, oko njega silna bjesni oluja.
4 On zove nebesa odozgo i zemlju da sudi narodu svojemu:
5 "Saberite mi sve pobožnike koji žrtvom Savez sa mnom sklopiše!"
6 Nebesa objavljuju pravednost njegovu: on je Bog sudac!
7 "Slušaj, narode moj, ja ću govoriti, o Izraele, svjedočit ću protiv tebe: ja, Bog - Bog tvoj!
8 Ne korim te zbog žrtava tvojih - paljenice su tvoje svagda preda mnom.
9 Neću od doma tvog' uzet junca, ni jaraca iz tvojih torova:
10 tÓa moje su sve životinje šumske, tisuće zvjeradi u gorama mojim.
11 Znam sve ptice nebeske, moje je sve što se miče u poljima.
12 Kad bih ogladnio, ne bih ti rekao, jer moja je zemlja i sve što je ispunja.
13 Zar da ja jedem meso bikova ili da pijem krv jaraca?
14 Prinesi Bogu žrtvu zahvalnu, ispuni Višnjemu zavjete svoje!
15 I zazovi me u dan tjeskobe: oslobodit ću te, a ti ćeš me slaviti."
16 A grešniku Bog progovara: "Što tumačiš naredbe moje, što mećeš u usta Savez moj?
17 Ti, komu stega ne prija, te riječi moje iza leđa bacaš?
18 Kad tata vidiš, s njime se bratimiš i družiš se s preljubnicima.
19 Svoja si usta predao pakosti, a jezik ti plete prijevare.
20 U društvu na brata govoriš i kaljaš sina matere svoje.
21 Sve si to činio, a ja da šutim? Zar misliš da sam ja tebi sličan? Pokarat ću te i stavit ću ti sve to pred oči."
22 Shvatite ovo svi vi koji Boga zaboraviste, da vas ne pograbim i nitko vas spasiti neće.
23 Pravo me štuje onaj koji prinosi žrtvu zahvalnu: i onomu koji hodi stazama pravim - njemu ću pokazati spasenje svoje.

do sljedeći put, blagoslov - until next time, blessings,
