< Psalms 81 >
1 For the end, a Psalm for Asaph, concerning the wine presses. Rejoice you in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.
Radujte se Bogu, koji nam daje krjepost; poklikujte Bogu Jakovljevu.
2 Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant lute with the harp.
Podignite pjesme, dajte bubanj, slatke gusle sa psaltirom.
3 Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast.
Trubite o mijeni u trubu, o uštapu radi praznika našega.
4 For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.
Jer je taki zakon u Izrailja, naredba od Boga Jakovljeva.
5 He made it [to be] a testimony in Joseph, when he came forth out of the land of Egypt: he heard a language which he understood not.
Za svjedoèanstvo postavi Josifu ovo, kad iðaše na zemlju Misirsku. Jezik, kojega ne znah, èuh:
6 He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.
“Uklonio sam ramena njegova od bremena, ruke njegove oprostiše se kotarica.
7 You did call upon me in trouble, and I delivered you; I heard you in the secret place of the storm: I proved you at the water of Strife. (Pause)
U nevolji si me zazvao, i izbavih te, usliših te usred groma, na vodi Merivi iskušah te.
8 Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you: if you will listen to me;
Slušaj, narode moj, i zasvjedoèiæu ti, Izrailju, o kad bi me poslušao:
9 there shall be no new god in you; neither shall you worship a strange god.
Da ne bude u tebe tuðega Boga, i Bogu stranome nemoj se klanjati.
10 For I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt: open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Ja sam Gospod, Bog tvoj, koji sam te izveo iz zemlje Misirske; otvori usta svoja, i ja æu ih napuniti.
11 But my people listened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.
Ali ne posluša narod moj glasa mojega, Izrailj ne mari za me.
12 So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.
I ja ih pustih na volju srca njihova, neka hode po svojim mislima.
13 If my people had listened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,
O kad bi narod moj slušao mene, i sinovi Izrailjevi hodili putovima mojim!
14 I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.
Brzo bih pokorio neprijatelje njihove, i na protivnike njihove digao bih ruku svoju;
15 The Lord's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.
Koji mrze na Gospoda, bili bi im pokorni, i dobri dani njihovi bili bi dovijeka;
16 And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
Najboljom bi pšenicom hranio njih, i medom bih iz kamena sitio ih.”
