Another “aesthetic translation”. <\/p>\n
I particularly like the last section. Though in all honesty the King James version is pretty good (I refer to Psalm 24:7-10). <\/p>\n
\nThe land belongs to Yahweh\n And everything that fills it;\nThe world\n And all who dwell in it.\n\nFor on the seas\n He established it,\nAnd on the rivers\n He made it firm.\n\nWho shall go up \n To Yahweh's hill?\nAnd who shall stand\n In his secret place?\n\nHe with clean hands and innocent heart\n Who has not rejoiced in empty things\n Nor made deceitful promises.\n\nYahweh will bring him blessing\n And God his savior, righteousness.\nThis generation seeks, like Jacob ---\n Seeks your face.\n\n\nLift, O gates, your heads;\n Be lifted, O ancient doors;\n That the Glorious King may enter!\n\nWho is this Glorious King?\n Yahweh, mighty and heroic!\n Yahweh, heroic in war!\n\nLift, O gates, your heads;\n Rise up, O ancient doors;\n That the Glorious King may enter!\n\nWho is he ... this Glorious King?\n Yahweh, at the head of armies!\n He --- he is the Glorious King!\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Another “aesthetic translation”.
