< Psalmi 83 >

1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
For, lo, thy enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
Who perished at Endor: 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 nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
As the fire burneth a forest, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
