< Psalms 81 >
1 Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for Asaph himself. Rejoice to God our helper: sing aloud to the God of Jacob.
Radujte se Bogu, koji nam daje krjepost; poklikujte Bogu Jakovljevu.
2 Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel: the pleasant psaltery with the harp.
Podignite pjesme, dajte bubanj, slatke gusle sa psaltirom.
3 Blow up the trumpet on the new moon, on the noted day of your solemnity.
Trubite o mijeni u trubu, o uštapu radi praznika našega.
4 For it is a commandment in Israel, and a judgment to the God of Jacob.
Jer je taki zakon u Izrailja, naredba od Boga Jakovljeva.
5 He ordained it for a testimony in Joseph, when he came out of the land of Egypt: he heard a tongue which he knew not.
Za svjedoèanstvo postavi Josifu ovo, kad iðaše na zemlju Misirsku. Jezik, kojega ne znah, èuh:
6 He removed his back from the burdens: his hands had served in baskets.
“Uklonio sam ramena njegova od bremena, ruke njegove oprostiše se kotarica.
7 Thou calledst upon me in affliction, and I delivered thee: I heard thee in the secret place of tempest: I proved thee at the waters of contradiction.
U nevolji si me zazvao, i izbavih te, usliših te usred groma, na vodi Merivi iskušah te.
8 Hear, O my people, and I will testify to thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken to me,
Slušaj, narode moj, i zasvjedoèiæu ti, Izrailju, o kad bi me poslušao:
9 There shall be no new god in thee: neither shalt thou adore a strange god.
Da ne bude u tebe tuðega Boga, i Bogu stranome nemoj se klanjati.
10 For I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy 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 heard not my voice: and Israel hearkened not to me.
Ali ne posluša narod moj glasa mojega, Izrailj ne mari za me.
12 So I let them go according to the desires of their heart: they shall walk in their own inventions.
I ja ih pustih na volju srca njihova, neka hode po svojim mislima.
13 If my people had heard me: if Israel had walked in my ways:
O kad bi narod moj slušao mene, i sinovi Izrailjevi hodili putovima mojim!
14 I should soon have humbled their enemies, and laid my hand on them that troubled them.
Brzo bih pokorio neprijatelje njihove, i na protivnike njihove digao bih ruku svoju;
15 The enemies of the Lord have lied to him: and 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 filled them with honey out of the rock.
Najboljom bi pšenicom hranio njih, i medom bih iz kamena sitio ih.”
