Psalms 76

1 [For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm by Asaph. A song.] In Judah, God is known. His name is great in Israel.

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

2 And his abode is in Salem, and his lair in Zion.

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

3 There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah)

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

4 Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.

Ti si veličastnejši in odličnejši kakor gore plena.

5 Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.

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

6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.

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

7 You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

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

8 You pronounced judgment from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,

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

9 when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. (Selah)

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

10 Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.

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

11 Make vows to Jehovah your God, and fulfill them. Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.

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 humbles the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.

Odrezal bo duha princev. Strašen je do zemeljskih kraljev.
