Psalms 68
1 To the chief music-maker. Of David. A Psalm. A Song. Let God be seen, and let his haters be put to flight; let those who are against him be turned back before him.
Naj vstane Bog, naj bodo njegovi sovražniki razkropljeni. Naj tudi tisti, ki ga sovražijo, bežijo pred njim.
2 Let them be like smoke before the driving wind; as wax turning soft before the fire, so let them come to an end before the power of God.
Kakor je pregnan dim, tako jih preženi. Kakor se vosek stopi pred ognjem, tako naj bodo zlobni pogubljeni pred prisotnostjo Boga.
3 But let the upright be glad; let them have delight before God; let them be full of joy.
Toda pravični naj bodo veseli, naj se veselijo pred Bogom. Da, naj se silno veselijo.
4 Make songs to God, make songs of praise to his name; make a way for him who comes through the waste lands; his name is Jah; be glad before him.
Prepevajte Bogu, prepevajte hvalnice njegovemu imenu. Povzdigujte njega, ki jaha po nebesih s svojim imenom Jah in se veselite pred njim.
5 A father to those who have no father, a judge of the widows, is God in his holy place.
Oče osirotelim in sodnik vdovam je Bog v svojem svetem prebivališču.
6 Those who are without friends, God puts in families; he makes free those who are in chains; but those who are turned away from him are given a dry land.
Bog osamljene postavlja v družine, osvobaja tiste, ki so zvezani z verigami, toda uporni prebivajo v suhi deželi.
7 O God, when you went out before your people, wandering through the waste land; (Selah)
Oh Bog, ko si šel naprej pred svojim ljudstvom, ko si korakal skozi divjino, (Sela)
8 The earth was shaking and the heavens were streaming, because God was present; even Sinai itself was moved before God, the God of Israel.
se je zemlja tresla, tudi nebo je kapljalo ob prisotnosti Boga. Celó sam Sinaj je bil premaknjen ob prisotnosti Boga, Izraelovega Boga.
9 You, O God, did freely send the rain, giving strength to the weariness of your heritage.
Ti, oh Bog, si poslal obilen dež, s čimer si potrdil svojo dediščino, ko je bila izmučena.
10 Those whose resting-place was there, even the poor, were comforted by your good things, O God.
Tvoja skupnost je prebivala tam. Ti, oh Bog, si od svoje dobrote pripravil za uboge.
11 The Lord gives the word; great is the number of the women who make it public.
Gospod je dal besedo. Velika je bila skupina teh, ki so jo razglašali.
12 Kings of armies quickly go in flight: and the women in the houses make a division of their goods.
Kralji vojská so naglo zbežali; tista pa, ki je ostala doma, je razdelila plen.
13 Will you take your rest among the flocks? like the wings of a dove covered with silver, and its feathers with yellow gold.
Čeprav si ležala med lonci, boš vendar kakor peruti golobice, [ki sta] pokriti s srebrom in njena peresa z rumenim zlatom.
14 When the Most High put the kings to flight, it was as white as snow in Salmon.
Ko je Vsemogočni v njej razkropil kralje, je bilo belo kakor sneg na Calmónu.
15 A hill of God is the hill of Bashan; a hill with high tops is the hill of Bashan.
Božja gora je kakor bašánska gora, visoka gora kakor bašánska gora.
16 Why are you looking with envy, you high hills, on the hill desired by God as his resting-place? truly, God will make it his house for ever.
Zakaj poskakujete, ve visoke gore? To je gora, na kateri želi prebivati Bog; da, Gospod bo na njej prebival na veke.
17 The war-carriage of God is among Israel's thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai to the holy place.
Božjih bojnih vozov je dvajset tisoč, celó tisoči angelov. Gospod je med njimi kakor na Sinaju, na svetem kraju.
18 You have gone up on high, taking your prisoners with you; you have taken offerings from men; the Lord God has taken his place on the seat of his power.
Ti si se dvignil na visoko, vodil si ujeto ujetništvo. Prejel si darila za ljudi, da, tudi za uporne, da bi med njimi lahko prebival Gospod Bog.
19 Praise be to the Lord, who is our support day by day, even the God of our salvation. (Selah)
Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki nas dnevno zalaga s koristmi, celó Bog rešitve naše duše. (Sela)
20 Our God is for us a God of salvation; his are the ways out of death.
Kdor je naš Bog, je Bog rešitve duše in Bogu, Gospodu, pripadajo izhodi pred smrtjo.
21 The heads of the haters of God will be crushed; even the head of him who still goes on in his evil ways.
Toda Bog bo ranil glavo svojih sovražnikov in lasato tême tistega, ki nenehno hodi v svojih prekrških.
22 The Lord said, I will make them come back from Bashan, and from the deep parts of the sea;
Gospod je rekel: »Ponovno bom privedel iz Bašána, ponovno bom svoje ljudstvo privedel iz morskih globin,
23 So that your foot may be red with blood, and the tongues of your dogs with the same.
da bo tvoje stopalo lahko pomočeno v krvi tvojih sovražnikov in jezik tvojih psov v istem.«
24 We see your going, O God: even the going of my God, my King, into the holy place.
Videli so tvoje sprevode, oh Bog, celó sprevode mojega Boga, mojega Kralja, v svetišču.
25 The makers of songs go before, the players of music come after, among the young girls playing on brass instruments.
Pevci so šli spredaj, igralci na glasbila so sledili zadaj, med njimi so bile gospodične, ki so igrale s tamburini.
26 Give praise to God in the great meeting; even the Lord, you who come from the fountain of Israel.
Blagoslavljajte Boga v skupnostih, celó Gospoda, iz Izraelovega studenca.
27 There is little Benjamin ruling them, the chiefs of Judah and their army, the rulers of Zebulun and the rulers of Naphtali.
Tam je majhen Benjamin z njihovim vladarjem, Judovi princi in njihov zbor, Zábulonovi princi in Neftálijevi princi.
28 O God, send out your strength; the strength, O God, with which you have done great things for us,
Tvoj Bog je zapovedal tvojo moč. Ojačaj, oh Bog, to, kar si izvršil za nas.
29 Out of your Temple in Jerusalem.
Zaradi tvojega templja pri Jeruzalemu ti bodo kralji prinašali darila.
30 Say sharp words to the beast among the water-plants, the band of strong ones, with the lords of the peoples, put an end to the people whose delight is in war.
Oštej skupino suličarjev, množico bikov s teleti ljudstva, dokler vsakdo sebe ne podredi s koščki srebra. Razkropi ljudstvo, ki se razveseljuje v vojni.
31 Kings will give you offerings, they will come out of Egypt; from Pathros will come offerings of silver; Ethiopia will be stretching out her hands to God.
Princi bodo prišli iz Egipta, Etiopija bo svoje roke kmalu iztegnila k Bogu.
32 Make songs to God, you kingdoms of the earth; O make songs of praise to the Lord; (Selah)
Prepevajte Bogu, ve, zemeljska kraljestva, oh prepevajte hvalnice Gospodu, (Sela)
33 To him who goes or the clouds of heaven, the heaven which was from earliest times; he sends out his voice of power.
Njemu, ki jaha po nebes nebesih, ki so bila od davnine; glej, poslal je svoj glas in to mogočen glas.
34 Make clear that strength is God's: he is lifted up over Israel, and his power is in the clouds.
Moč pripišite Bogu. Njegova odličnost je nad Izraelom in njegova moč je v oblakih.
35 O God, you are to be feared in your holy place: the God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God.
Oh Bog, ti si strašen iz svojih svetih prostorov. Izraelov Bog je ta, ki daje svojemu ljudstvu moč in oblast. Blagoslovljen bodi Bog.
