Psalms 83
1 A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.
Mazmur Asaf: sebuah nyanyian. Ya Allah, janganlah membisu, jangan berpangku tangan dan tinggal diam.
2 For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.
Lihatlah, musuh-Mu bergolak, orang-orang yang membenci Engkau berontak.
3 They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.
Mereka membuat rencana licik melawan umat-Mu; dan berunding melawan orang-orang yang Kaulindungi.
4 They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”
Kata mereka, "Mari kita hancurkan bangsa Israel, supaya nama mereka tidak diingat lagi."
5 For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:
Bangsa-bangsa telah bersekutu, dan bermupakat melawan Engkau:
6 the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,
bangsa Edom dan Ismael, orang-orang Moab dan Hagar;
7 and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.
bangsa Gebal, Amon dan Amalek, bangsa Filistea serta penduduk Tirus.
8 For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.
Juga Asyur telah bergabung dengan mereka, menjadi kaki tangan keturunan Lot.
9 Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.
Perlakukanlah mereka seperti orang Midian, seperti Sisera dan Yabin di Sungai Kison,
10 They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.
yang sudah dibinasakan di Endor, dan menjadi pupuk untuk tanah.
11 Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders
Perlakukanlah pemimpin mereka seperti Oreb dan Zeeb, tundukkanlah penguasa mereka seperti Zebah dan Salmuna,
12 who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”
karena mereka telah berkata, "Mari kita duduki tanah kediaman Allah."
13 My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.
Ya Allah, hamburkanlah mereka seperti debu, seperti jerami yang ditiup angin.
14 Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.
Seperti api yang membakar hutan, nyala api yang menghanguskan gunung-gunung.
15 So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.
Kejarlah mereka dengan badai-Mu, kejutkan mereka dengan topan-Mu.
16 Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.
Ya TUHAN, biarlah mereka dihina, supaya mereka mengakui kekuasaan-Mu.
17 Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.
Biarlah mereka selamanya dipermalukan dan ketakutan, biarlah mereka mati dalam kehinaan.
18 And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.
Semoga mereka tahu hanya Engkaulah Yang Mahatinggi, TUHAN, yang menguasai seluruh bumi.
