Psalms 68
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David, a Song. Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; and let them that hate Him flee before Him.
Naj vstane Bog, naj bodo njegovi sovražniki razkropljeni. Naj tudi tisti, ki ga sovražijo, bežijo pred njim.
2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence 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 righteous be glad, let them exult before God; yea, let them rejoice with gladness.
Toda pravični naj bodo veseli, naj se veselijo pred Bogom. Da, naj se silno veselijo.
4 Sing unto God, sing praises to His name; extol Him that rideth upon the skies, whose name is the LORD; and exult ye 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 of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in His holy habitation.
Oče osirotelim in sodnik vdovam je Bog v svojem svetem prebivališču.
6 God maketh the solitary to dwell in a house; He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; the rebellious dwell but in a parched land.
Bog osamljene postavlja v družine, osvobaja tiste, ki so zvezani z verigami, toda uporni prebivajo v suhi deželi.
7 O God, when Thou wentest forth before Thy people, when Thou didst march through the wilderness; (Selah)
Oh Bog, ko si šel naprej pred svojim ljudstvom, ko si korakal skozi divjino, (Sela)
8 The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God; even yon Sinai trembled at the presence of 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 A bounteous rain didst Thou pour down, O God; when Thine inheritance was weary, Thou didst confirm it.
Ti, oh Bog, si poslal obilen dež, s čimer si potrdil svojo dediščino, ko je bila izmučena.
10 Thy flock settled therein; Thou didst prepare in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.
Tvoja skupnost je prebivala tam. Ti, oh Bog, si od svoje dobrote pripravil za uboge.
11 The Lord giveth the word; the women that proclaim the tidings are a great host.
Gospod je dal besedo. Velika je bila skupina teh, ki so jo razglašali.
12 Kings of armies flee, they flee; and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
Kralji vojská so naglo zbežali; tista pa, ki je ostala doma, je razdelila plen.
13 When ye lie among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her pinions with the shimmer of 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 Almighty scattereth kings therein, it snoweth in Zalmon.
Ko je Vsemogočni v njej razkropil kralje, je bilo belo kakor sneg na Calmónu.
15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; a mountain of peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
Božja gora je kakor bašánska gora, visoka gora kakor bašánska gora.
16 Why look ye askance, ye mountains of peaks, at the mountain which God hath desired for His abode? Yea, the LORD will dwell therein 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 chariots of God are myriads, even thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in holiness.
Božjih bojnih vozov je dvajset tisoč, celó tisoči angelov. Gospod je med njimi kakor na Sinaju, na svetem kraju.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captivity captive; Thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.
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 Blessed be the Lord, day by day He beareth our burden, even the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki nas dnevno zalaga s koristmi, celó Bog rešitve naše duše. (Sela)
20 God is unto us a God of deliverances; and unto GOD the Lord belong the issues of death.
Kdor je naš Bog, je Bog rešitve duše in Bogu, Gospodu, pripadajo izhodi pred smrtjo.
21 Surely God will smite through the head of His enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth about in his guiltiness.
Toda Bog bo ranil glavo svojih sovražnikov in lasato tême tistega, ki nenehno hodi v svojih prekrških.
22 The Lord said: 'I will bring back from Bashan, I will bring them back from the depths of the sea;
Gospod je rekel: »Ponovno bom privedel iz Bašána, ponovno bom svoje ljudstvo privedel iz morskih globin,
23 That thy foot may wade through blood, that the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.'
da bo tvoje stopalo lahko pomočeno v krvi tvojih sovražnikov in jezik tvojih psov v istem.«
24 They see Thy goings, O God, even the goings of my God, my King, in holiness.
Videli so tvoje sprevode, oh Bog, celó sprevode mojega Boga, mojega Kralja, v svetišču.
25 The singers go before, the minstrels follow after, in the midst of damsels playing upon timbrels.
Pevci so šli spredaj, igralci na glasbila so sledili zadaj, med njimi so bile gospodične, ki so igrale s tamburini.
26 'Bless ye God in full assemblies, even the Lord, ye that are from the fountain of Israel.'
Blagoslavljajte Boga v skupnostih, celó Gospoda, iz Izraelovega studenca.
27 There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah their council, the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
Tam je majhen Benjamin z njihovim vladarjem, Judovi princi in njihov zbor, Zábulonovi princi in Neftálijevi princi.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength; be strong, O God, Thou that hast wrought for us
Tvoj Bog je zapovedal tvojo moč. Ojačaj, oh Bog, to, kar si izvršil za nas.
29 Out of Thy temple at Jerusalem, whither kings shall bring presents unto Thee.
Zaradi tvojega templja pri Jeruzalemu ti bodo kralji prinašali darila.
30 Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples, every one submitting himself with pieces of silver; He hath scattered the peoples that delight 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 Nobles shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall hasten to stretch out her hands unto God.
Princi bodo prišli iz Egipta, Etiopija bo svoje roke kmalu iztegnila k Bogu.
32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; (Selah)
Prepevajte Bogu, ve, zemeljska kraljestva, oh prepevajte hvalnice Gospodu, (Sela)
33 To Him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which are of old; lo, He uttereth His voice, a mighty voice.
Njemu, ki jaha po nebes nebesih, ki so bila od davnine; glej, poslal je svoj glas in to mogočen glas.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God; His majesty is over Israel, and His strength is in the skies.
Moč pripišite Bogu. Njegova odličnost je nad Izraelom in njegova moč je v oblakih.
35 Awful is God out of thy holy places; the God of Israel, He giveth strength and power unto the people; blessed be God.
Oh Bog, ti si strašen iz svojih svetih prostorov. Izraelov Bog je ta, ki daje svojemu ljudstvu moč in oblast. Blagoslovljen bodi Bog.
