Psalms 68
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. A song. Stand up, God, and scatter your enemies. Let those who hate him run away from him!
Naj vstane Bog, naj bodo njegovi sovražniki razkropljeni. Naj tudi tisti, ki ga sovražijo, bežijo pred njim.
2 Blow them away as if they were smoke; melt them like beeswax in a fire. Let the wicked die in God's presence.
Kakor je pregnan dim, tako jih preženi. Kakor se vosek stopi pred ognjem, tako naj bodo zlobni pogubljeni pred prisotnostjo Boga.
3 But those who are right with God are happy, and they celebrate in God's presence, full of joy.
Toda pravični naj bodo veseli, naj se veselijo pred Bogom. Da, naj se silno veselijo.
4 Sing praises to God! Sing praises to his wonderful reputation! Praise the rider of the clouds—his name is the Lord! Be happy in his presence!
Prepevajte Bogu, prepevajte hvalnice njegovemu imenu. Povzdigujte njega, ki jaha po nebesih s svojim imenom Jah in se veselite pred njim.
5 He is a father to the orphans, a protector of widows. This is who God is, who lives in his holy place.
Oče osirotelim in sodnik vdovam je Bog v svojem svetem prebivališču.
6 God gives those who are abandoned a family to live with. He sets prisoners free with celebration. But those who rebel live in a desert wasteland.
Bog osamljene postavlja v družine, osvobaja tiste, ki so zvezani z verigami, toda uporni prebivajo v suhi deželi.
7 God, when you led your people out, when you marched through the desert, (Selah)
Oh Bog, ko si šel naprej pred svojim ljudstvom, ko si korakal skozi divjino, (Sela)
8 the earth quaked, and the heavens shook before God, the one of Sinai; 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 sent plenty of rain to water the promised land; refreshing it when it was dry.
Ti, oh Bog, si poslal obilen dež, s čimer si potrdil svojo dediščino, ko je bila izmučena.
10 Your people settled there, and because of your kindness, God, you looked after the poor. (Selah)
Tvoja skupnost je prebivala tam. Ti, oh Bog, si od svoje dobrote pripravil za uboge.
11 The Lord gives the command, and a great army of women spread the good news.
Gospod je dal besedo. Velika je bila skupina teh, ki so jo razglašali.
12 The kings of the foreign armies are quick to run away, and the women who stayed at home divide the plunder!
Kralji vojská so naglo zbežali; tista pa, ki je ostala doma, je razdelila plen.
13 Why are you staying at home? There are ornaments in the shape of a dove with wings of silver and feathers of fine gold to be taken.
Čeprav si ležala med lonci, boš vendar kakor peruti golobice, [ki sta] pokriti s srebrom in njena peresa z rumenim zlatom.
14 The Almighty scattered the foreign kings like a snowstorm on Mount Zalmon.
Ko je Vsemogočni v njej razkropil kralje, je bilo belo kakor sneg na Calmónu.
15 “Mountain of God,” Mount Bashan, with your many high peaks, Mount Bashan,
Božja gora je kakor bašánska gora, visoka gora kakor bašánska gora.
16 why do you look enviously, mountain with many peaks, at the mountain God chose as his home, where the Lord will live forever?
Zakaj poskakujete, ve visoke gore? To je gora, na kateri želi prebivati Bog; da, Gospod bo na njej prebival na veke.
17 God's chariots can't be counted; there are thousands and thousands of them. He comes among them from Sinai into his Temple.
Božjih bojnih vozov je dvajset tisoč, celó tisoči angelov. Gospod je med njimi kakor na Sinaju, na svetem kraju.
18 As you ascended to your high throne you led a procession of prisoners. You received gifts from the people, even from those who had rebelled against the home of the Lord God.
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 May the Lord be blessed, for every day he carries our burdens. God is our salvation. (Selah)
Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki nas dnevno zalaga s koristmi, celó Bog rešitve naše duše. (Sela)
20 For us, God is a God who saves. The Lord God provides our escape from death.
Kdor je naš Bog, je Bog rešitve duše in Bogu, Gospodu, pripadajo izhodi pred smrtjo.
21 But God will crush the heads of his enemies, the hairy heads of those who continue to sin.
Toda Bog bo ranil glavo svojih sovražnikov in lasato tême tistega, ki nenehno hodi v svojih prekrških.
22 The Lord says, “I will drag them down from Bashan; I will drag them up from the depths of the sea,
Gospod je rekel: »Ponovno bom privedel iz Bašána, ponovno bom svoje ljudstvo privedel iz morskih globin,
23 so that you may walk in their blood. Even your dogs will have their share of your enemies.”
da bo tvoje stopalo lahko pomočeno v krvi tvojih sovražnikov in jezik tvojih psov v istem.«
24 People watch your processions, God—the processions of my God and King as they go into the Temple.
Videli so tvoje sprevode, oh Bog, celó sprevode mojega Boga, mojega Kralja, v svetišču.
25 The singers are at the front, the musicians at the back, and in the middle girls playing tambourines.
Pevci so šli spredaj, igralci na glasbila so sledili zadaj, med njimi so bile gospodične, ki so igrale s tamburini.
26 Praise God, everyone who has come to worship; praise the Lord, everyone who belongs to Israel.
Blagoslavljajte Boga v skupnostih, celó Gospoda, iz Izraelovega studenca.
27 There is the little tribe of Benjamin, followed by the many leaders from Judah; then come the leaders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
Tam je majhen Benjamin z njihovim vladarjem, Judovi princi in njihov zbor, Zábulonovi princi in Neftálijevi princi.
28 Display your power, God! Reveal your strength, Lord, as you have done for us in the past.
Tvoj Bog je zapovedal tvojo moč. Ojačaj, oh Bog, to, kar si izvršil za nas.
29 Because of your Temple in Jerusalem, kings bring tribute to you.
Zaradi tvojega templja pri Jeruzalemu ti bodo kralji prinašali darila.
30 Condemn the beasts of the reeds, the bulls and calves! May they be humbled and bring bars of silver in tribute! Scatter the war-loving nations!
Oštej skupino suličarjev, množico bikov s teleti ljudstva, dokler vsakdo sebe ne podredi s koščki srebra. Razkropi ljudstvo, ki se razveseljuje v vojni.
31 Let Egypt come with bronze gifts; let Ethiopia come quickly and hand over their tributes to God!
Princi bodo prišli iz Egipta, Etiopija bo svoje roke kmalu iztegnila k Bogu.
32 Sing to God, kingdoms of the earth, sing praises to the Lord. (Selah)
Prepevajte Bogu, ve, zemeljska kraljestva, oh prepevajte hvalnice Gospodu, (Sela)
33 Sing to the rider of the ancient heavens, his strong voice sounding like thunder!
Njemu, ki jaha po nebes nebesih, ki so bila od davnine; glej, poslal je svoj glas in to mogočen glas.
34 Let everyone know of God's power: how his majesty extends over Israel, how his strength is revealed in the heavens.
Moč pripišite Bogu. Njegova odličnost je nad Izraelom in njegova moč je v oblakih.
35 How awesome is God in his Temple! The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people! Praise God!
Oh Bog, ti si strašen iz svojih svetih prostorov. Izraelov Bog je ta, ki daje svojemu ljudstvu moč in oblast. Blagoslovljen bodi Bog.
