< Psalmi 83 >
1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A SONG. A PSALM OF ASAPH. O God, let there be no silence to You, Do not be silent, nor be quiet, O God.
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
For behold, Your enemies roar, And those hating You have lifted up the head,
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
They take crafty counsel against Your people, And consult against Your hidden ones.
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They have said, “Come, and we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered anymore.”
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
For they consulted in heart together, They make a covenant against You,
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
Asshur is also joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. (Selah)
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do to them as Midian, As Sisera, as Jabin, at the Brook of Kishon.
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
They were destroyed at Endor, They were 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 as Zebah and Zalmunna—all their princes,
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
Who have said, “Let us occupy the pastures of God for ourselves.”
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
As a fire burns a forest, And as a flame sets hills on fire,
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
So You pursue them with Your whirlwind, And trouble them with Your windstorm.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Your Name, O YHWH.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
They are ashamed and troubled forever, Indeed, they are confounded and lost.
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
And they know that You—Your Name [is] YHWH—By Yourself [are] the Most High over all the earth!
