< Psalmi 83 >
1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.
11 K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove
Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.
