< Psalmi 83 >
1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A Song; a Psalm of Asaph. O God, keep not silence; hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God:
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
For behold, thine enemies make a tumult; and they that hate thee lift up the head.
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
They take crafty counsel against thy people, and consult against thy hidden ones:
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They say, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, and let the name of Israel be mentioned no more.
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
For they have consulted together with one heart: they have made an alliance together against thee.
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagarites;
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia, with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
Asshur also is joined with them: they are an arm to the sons of Lot. (Selah)
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do unto them as to Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the torrent of Kishon:
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
Who were destroyed at Endor; they became as dung for the ground.
11 K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove
Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb; and all their chiefs as Zebah and as Zalmunna.
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
For they have said, Let us take to ourselves God's dwelling-places in possession.
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
O my God, make them like a whirling thing, like stubble before the wind.
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
As fire burneth a forest, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire,
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
So pursue them with thy tempest, and terrify them with thy whirlwind.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
Let them be put to shame and be dismayed for ever, and let them be confounded and perish:
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, art the Most High over all the earth.
