following after (Chist)

This is the answer I have received from an othodox priest in the U.S.:

"... The word you mention, "posledovanje", refers to following after Him, in being his true successors.
The "petohlebnica" is part of a service where 5 loaves of bread, along with wheat, wine and oil, are blessed, very similar to the blessing of the 5 breads performed in the ancient Temple in Jerusalem in Old Testament times..."

This is obviously another meaning of "petohlebnica".

So, "posledovanje" is "following after (Christ)".

If, however, your task is to translate the name of the psalter, I suggest that you leave "posledovanje" as is (just like the other translators did - see above) /Psalter with "Posledovanje"/, since "posledovanje" is not a modern Serbian word.

Rite

"Posledovanje" in religion means the procedure of prayers and ceremonies and their description (see any religious glossary).

From Merriam Webster dictionary:

rite (riet) n.
1. a formal ceremony or procedure prescribed or customary in religious or other solemn use.

If you can read Cyrillic I can give the description from an Orthodox glossary:

Ďîńë`ĺäîâŕíčĺ (ńđ.)
Đ˙ä ěîëčňâ čëč öĺđęîâíűő ńëóćá, đŕńďîëîćĺííűő â îďđĺäĺëĺííîě ďîđ˙äęĺ.

This corresponds to the definition from Merriam Webster given above.

Good luck!

Mitropolit Amfilohije Radovic (clanci):

\"... Sveti Sava, trazeci od svoga oca da dodje u Svetu Goru, postavlja za cilj njihovog zajednickog boravka na ovom \"ognjistu vrlina\": \"Da posalje nam vladika Hristos Presvetoga Duha svoga i obnovi u nama obraz Trisvetloga Bozanstva, i za ljubavno posledovanje njemu, useli se u nas i obitelj u nama stvori...\"


Iz ovoga se vidi da \"posledovanje\" ne moze da bude \"rite\", vec je to, verovatno, \"posvecenost\" ili \"sluzenje\" Bogu. Ali, najbolje je konsultovati neko svesteno lice.

Pozdrav,
olyx

Na linku koji sam dala, vidi se da se \"Psaltir sa posledovanjem\" prevodi i samo kao \"Psalter\".
