Psalmi 83
1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A Song of a Psalm for Asaph. O God, who shall be compared to you? be not silent, neither be still, O God.
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
For behold, your enemies have made a noise; and they that hate you have lifted up the head.
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
Against your people they have craftily imagined a device, and have taken counsel against your saints.
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They have said, Come, and let us utterly destroy them out of the nation; and let the name of Israel be remembered no more at all.
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
For they have taken counsel together with one consent: they have made a confederacy against you;
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
even the tents of the Idumeans, and the Ismaelites; Moab, and the Agarenes;
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalec; the Philistines also, with them that dwell at Tyre.
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
Yes, Assur too is come with them: they have become a help to the children of Lot. (Pause)
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do you to them as to Madiam, and to Sisera; as to Jabin at the brook of Kison.
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
They were utterly destroyed at Aendor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove
Make their princes as Oreb and Zeb, and Zebee and Salmana; [even] all their princes:
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
who said, let us take to ourselves the altar of God as an inheritance.
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
O my God, make them as a wheel; as stubble before the face of the wind.
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
As fire which shall burn up a wood, as the flame may consume the mountains;
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
so shall you persecute them with your tempest, and trouble them in your anger.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces with dishonor; so shall they seek your name, O Lord.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
Let them be ashamed and troubled for evermore; yes, let them be confounded and destroyed.
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
And let them know that your name is Lord; that you alone are Most High over all the earth.
