Psalms 76

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a psalm or song of Assaph.” In Judah hath God been made known: in Israel is his name great.

V Judu je Bog poznan. Njegovo ime v Izraelu je veliko.

2 And in Salem was his tabernacle made, and his dwelling-place in Zion.

Tudi v Salemu je njegovo šotorsko svetišče in njegovo bivališče na Sionu.

3 There broke he the shining arrows of the bow, shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)

Tam je prelomil puščice loka, ščit, meč in bitko. (Sela)

4 Thou art more brilliant, more excellent than the mountains [full] of prey.

Ti si veličastnejši in odličnejši kakor gore plena.

5 Bereft of reason are the stouthearted, they slumber their sleep: and none of the men of might have found [the use of] their hands.

Arogantni so oplenjeni, spali so svoje spanje. Nihče izmed mogočnih mož ni našel svojih rok.

6 From thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, lie in deep sleep both chariot and horse.

Ob tvojem oštevanju, Bog Jakobov, sta tako bojni voz, kakor konj vržena v smrtno spanje.

7 Thou—thou art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thy anger [is kindled]?

Ti, celó tebe se je bati in kdo lahko stoji v tvojem pogledu, kadar si jezen?

8 From heaven hast thou caused [thy] sentence to be heard: the earth feared, and became still,

Povzročil si, da se z neba sliši sodba; zemlja se je zbala in postala tiha,

9 When God rose to judgment, to save all the lowly of the earth. (Selah)

ko je k sodbi vstal Bog, da reši vse krotke na zemlji. (Sela)

10 For the fury of man shall praise thee: the remainder of the fury wilt thou gird about thee.

Zagotovo te bo hvalil človeški bes. Ostanek besa boš ti obrzdal.

11 Make vows, and pay [them] unto the Lord your God, all ye that are round about him: let men bring presents unto him that exciteth fear.

Zaobljubi se in plačaj Gospodu, svojemu Bogu. Naj vsi tisti, ki so okoli njega, prinesejo darila tistemu, ki bi se ga morali bati.

12 He will cut down the spirit of the powerful: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.

Odrezal bo duha princev. Strašen je do zemeljskih kraljev.
