Psalms 83
1 [A song. A Psalm by Asaph.] God, do not be silent. Do not be deaf, and do not be inactive, God.
Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!
2 For, look, your enemies make an uproar. Those who hate you are hostile.
Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.
3 They devise crafty plans against your people, and conspire together against your treasured ones.
Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.
4 They say, "Come, and let us annihilate them as a nation; let the name of Israel may be remembered no more."
Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”
5 For they plot a unified strategy; they make a covenant against you;
Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagrites,
šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,
7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre.
Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.
8 Assyria too is joined with them; they lend support to the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.
9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin at the Kishon River,
Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:
10 who were destroyed at Endor, who became manure for the ground.
koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove
12 who said, "Let us take possession for ourselves the pastures of God."
koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”
13 My God, make them like tumbleweed; like dead weeds blown by the wind.
Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.
14 Like a fire that consumes a forest, and like the flames that consume the mountains,
Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,
15 so pursue them with your gale winds, and terrify them with your storm.
tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!
16 Cover their faces with shame, so that they might seek your name, LORD.
Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!
17 Let them be put to shame and terrified forever; let them perish in disgrace,
Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!
18 that they will know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.
