< Psalmi 83 >

1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, do not be silent! Do not ignore us and remain unmoved, God.
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
Look, your enemies are making a commotion, and those who hate you have raised their heads.
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
They conspire against your people and plan together against your protected ones.
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They have said, “Come, and let us destroy them as a nation. Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
They have schemed together with one strategy; against you they have made an alliance.
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, and the people of Moab and the Hagrites, who plot together with
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
Gebal, Ammon, Amalek; it also includes Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
Assyria also is allied with them; they are helping the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
They perished at Endor and became like manure for the earth.
11 K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
They said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
My God, make them like the whirling dust, like chaff before the wind,
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
like the fire that burns the forest, and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
Chase them with your strong wind, and terrify them with your windstorm.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces with shame so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
May they be put to shame and be terrified forever; may they perish in disgrace.
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.
