Psalms 79
1 O god, the heathen are come into your inheritance; your holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
Oh Bog, pogani so prišli v tvojo dediščino, omadeževali so tvoj sveti tempelj, Jeruzalem so razbili na kupe.
2 The dead bodies of your servants have they given to be food unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of your saints unto the beasts of the earth.
Trupla tvojih služabnikov so izročili, da so hrana perjadi neba, meso tvojih svetih za zemeljske živali.
3 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them.
Njihovo kri so kakor vodo prelivali naokoli Jeruzalema, in nikogar ni bilo, da jih pokoplje.
4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
Postali smo graja našim sosedom, norčevanje in posmeh tem, ki so okoli nas.
5 How long, LORD? will you be angry for ever? shall your jealousy burn like fire?
Doklej, Gospod? Hočeš biti jezen na veke? Ali bo tvoja ljubosumnost gorela kakor ogenj?
6 Pour out your wrath upon the heathen that have not known you, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon your name.
Svoj bes izlij nad pogane, ki te ne spoznavajo in nad kraljestva, ki ne kličejo tvojega imena.
7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
Kajti požrli so Jakoba in opustošili njegovo prebivališče.
8 O remember not against us former iniquities: let your tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
O ne spominjaj se zoper nas prejšnjih krivičnosti. Naj nas tvoja nežna usmiljenja naglo vodijo, kajti mi smo zelo ponižani.
9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for your name's sake.
Pomagaj nam, oh Bog rešitve naše duše, zaradi slave svojega imena in osvobodi nas in naše grehe očisti proč zaradi svojega imena.
10 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of your servants which is shed.
Zakaj bi pogani rekli: »Kje je njihov Bog?« Naj bo z maščevanjem krvi tvojih služabnikov, ki je prelita, on spoznan med pogani v našem pogledu.
11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before you; according to the greatness of your power preserve you those that are appointed to die;
Naj pride predte jetnikovo vzdihovanje; glede na veličino svoje moči ohrani tiste, ki so določeni, da umro
12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached you, O Lord.
in povrni našim sosedom njihovo grajo sedemkratno v njihovo naročje, s katero so te grajali, oh Gospod.
13 So we your people and sheep of your pasture will give you thanks for ever: we will show forth your praise to all generations.
Tako ti bomo mi, tvoje ljudstvo in ovce tvojega pašnika, dajali zahvalo na veke. Tvojo hvalo bomo naznanjali vsem rodovom.
