Psalms 46
1 God is the one who protects us and causes us to be strong; he is always ready to help us when we have troubles.
Bog je naše zatočišče in moč, v stiski zelo navzoča pomoč.
2 So, even if the earth shakes, we will not be afraid. Even if the mountains fall into the middle of the sea,
Zato se ne bomo bali, četudi se bo zemlja odstranila in četudi bodo gore odnesene v sredo morja.
3 and if the water in the sea roars and foams, and the hills shake violently, we will not be afraid!
Četudi njegove vode bučijo in so vzburkane, četudi se z naraščanjem le-teh tresejo gore. (Sela)
4 [Blessings that come from] God are like a river that makes everyone in the city where [we worship] God joyful. It is the city where the temple of God, who is greater than any other god, exists.
Tam je reka, katere vodni tokovi bodo razveselili Božje mesto, sveti kraj šotorskih svetišč Najvišjega.
5 God is in this city, and it will never be destroyed; he will [come to] help [the people in] that city at dawn every day.
Bog je v njegovi sredi, le-to ne bo omajano. Bog mu bo pomagal in to prav zgodaj.
6 [Sometimes] the [people of many] nations are terrified; kingdoms (are overthrown/cease to exist); God speaks [loudly like thunder], and the earth melts (OR, people everywhere become terrified) [MET].
Pogani so besneli, kraljestva so bila premaknjena. Izustil je svoj glas, zemlja se je stopila.
7 But Yahweh, the commander of the armies of heaven, is with us; the God whom Jacob worshiped (OR, we Israeli people worship) is our refuge.
Gospod nad bojevniki je z nami, Bog Jakobov je naše zatočišče. (Sela)
8 Come and (see/think about) the amazing things that Yahweh has done [DOU]!
Pridite, glejte Gospodova dela, kakšna opustošenja je storil na zemlji.
9 He stops wars all over the world; he breaks bows [and arrows]; he destroys spears; he burns up shields.
Vojnam dela, da se končajo do konca zemlje, lomi lok in sulico preseka na dvoje, bojni voz zažiga v ognju.
10 [God says], “Be quiet, and remember that I am God! I will be honored by the people of all nations. I will be honored all over the earth.”
Bodite mirni in védite, da sem jaz Bog. Povišan bom med pogani, povišan bom na zemlji.
11 [So never forget that] Yahweh, the commander of the armies of heaven, is with us; the God whom Jacob worshiped (OR, we Israeli people worship) is our refuge.
Gospod nad bojevniki je z nami, Bog Jakobov je naše zatočišče. (Sela)
