Psalmi 68
1 Zborovođi. Davidov. Psalam. Pjesma. Bog nek' ustane! Razbježali se dušmani njegovi! Svi mrzitelji njegovi pobjegli pred njim!
To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.
2 Kao što dim iščezava, i njih neka nestane! Kako se vosak topi na ognju, nek' nestane grešnika pred licem Božjim!
As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
3 Pravedni neka se raduju, neka klikću pred Bogom, neka kliču od radosti.
But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.
4 Pjevajte Bogu, slavite mu ime! Poravnajte put onome koji ide pustinjom - kojemu je ime Jahve - i kličite pred njim!
Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.
5 Otac sirota, branitelj udovica, Bog je u svom svetom šatoru.
A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
6 Napuštene okućit će Jahve, sužnjima pružit' sretnu slobodu: buntovnici samo ostaše u sažganoj pustinji.
God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].
7 Kad si stupao, Bože, pred narodom svojim, dok si prolazio pustinjom,
O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness (Selah)
8 tresla se zemlja, nebo se rosilo pred Bogom, Sinaj drhtao pred Bogom, Bogom Izraela.
The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Blagoslovljen dažd pustio si, Bože, na baštinu svoju, okrijepio je umornu.
Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
10 Stado se tvoje nastani u njoj, u dobroti, Bože, ti je spremi siromahu.
Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!
11 Jahve riječ zadaje, veliko je mnoštvo radosnih vjesnika:
The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.
12 kraljevi vojska bježe te bježe, domaćice plijen dijele.
Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
13 Dok vi počivaste među stadima, krila golubice zablistaše srebrom, a njeno perje žućkastim zlatom:
Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
14 ondje Svemogući razbijaše kraljeve, a ona poput snijega zablista na Salmonu.
When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
15 Božanska je gora gora bašanska vrletna.
[As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.
16 Zašto vi, gore vrletne, zavidno gledate na goru gdje se svidje Bogu prebivati? Jahve će na njoj boraviti svagda!
Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.
17 Božja su kola bezbrojna, tisuću tisuća: Jahve sa Sinaja u Svetište dolazi!
The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
18 Na visinu uzađe vodeći sužnje, na dar si ljude primio, pa i one što ne žele prebivati kod Boga.
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
19 Blagoslovljen Jahve dan za danom, nosi nas Bog, naš Spasitelj.

21 Zaista, Bog će satrti glave dušmana svojih, kuštravo tjeme onog što hodi u grijesima.
Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
22 Reče Gospodin: “Iz Bašana ću ih dovesti, dovest ću ih iz dubine mora,
The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;
23 da okupaš nogu u krvi, da jezici tvojih pasa imadnu dio od dušmana.”
That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.
24 Ulazak ti, Bože, gledaju, ulazak moga Boga i Kralja u Svetište:
They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.

Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
