Psalms 68
1 God, arise and scatter your enemies, and cause those who hate you to run away from you.
Salmo e canção de Davi, para o regente: Deus se levantará, [e] seus inimigos serão dispersos, e os que o odeiam fugirão de sua presença.
2 Like [wind] blows smoke away, chase your enemies away. Like wax melts when it is near a fire, cause wicked people to (disappear/be destroyed).
Assim como a fumaça se espalha, tu os espalharás; assim como a cera que se derrete diante do fogo, [assim também] os perversos perecerão diante de Deus.
3 But righteous people should be joyful; they should rejoice when they are in God’s presence; they should be happy, and be very joyful.
Mas os justos se alegrarão, [e] saltarão de prazer perante Deus, e se encherão de alegria.
4 Sing to God; sing to praise him; sing a song (OR, make a road) for him who rides on the clouds; his name is Yahweh; be glad when you are in his presence.
Cantai a Deus, cantai louvores ao seu nome; exaltai aquele que anda montado sobre as nuvens, pois EU-SOU é o seu nome; e alegrai [-vos] diante dele.
5 God, who lives in his sacred temple, is [like] [MET] a father to [those who are] orphans, and he is the one who protects widows.
[Ele é] o pai dos órfãos, e juiz que defende as viúvas; Deus na habitação de sua santidade.
6 For those who have no one to live with, he provides families [to live with]. He frees prisoners and enables them to be successful, but those who rebel [against him] will be forced to live in a very hot and dry land.
Deus que faz os solitários viverem em uma família, e liberta os prisioneiros; mas os rebeldes habitam em terra seca.
7 God, you led your people out [of Egypt], and then you marched with them through the desert.
Deus, quando tu saías perante teu povo, enquanto caminhavas pelo deserto (Selá)
8 After you did that, because when you, the God [worshiped by us] Israeli people, appeared to us at Sinai [Mountain], the earth shook, and rain poured down from the sky.
A terra se abalava, e os céus se derramavam perante a presença de Deus; neste Sinai, diante da presença de Deus, o Deus de Israel.
9 You caused plenty of rain to fall [on your land], [and so] you enabled good crops to grow again on the land that you gave [to us Israelis].
Tu fizeste a chuva cair abundantemente, e firmaste tu herança, que estava cansada.
10 Your people built homes there; and because you were good to them, you provided [food] for those who were poor.
Nela o teu rebanho habitou; por tua bondade, Deus, sustentaste ao miserável.
11 The Lord gave a message, and many women took that message to other places.
O Senhor falou; grande é o exército das que anunciam as boas novas.
12 [They proclaimed], “Many kings and their armies are running away [from our army]!” [When our army brought back to their homes] the things that they captured, the women who were at home divided up those things [among themselves and among their families].
Reis de exércitos fugiam apressadamente; e aquela que ficava em casa repartia os despojos.
13 Even those women who were in the pens [taking care of] the sheep [received some of those things]; they got statues of doves whose wings were covered with silver and whose feathers were covered with pure yellow gold.
Ainda que estivésseis cercados por ambos os lados, [estais protegidos] como que por asas de pomba, cobertas de prata, e suas penas revestidas de ouro.
14 When Almighty [God] scattered the [enemy] kings [and their armies], [the number of weapons that they abandoned there] seemed like there had been a snowstorm on Zalmon (OR, a black) [Mountain].
Quando o Todo-Poderoso espalhou os reis, houve neve em Salmom.
15 There is a very high mountain in the Bashan [region], a mountain which has many peaks.
O monte de Deus [é como] o monte de Basã; [é] um monte bem alto, [como] o monte de Basã.
16 But the [people who live near] that mountain should not [RHQ] envy those who live near [Zion], the mountain on which God chose to live! Yahweh will live there forever!
Por que olhais com inveja, ó montes altos? A este monte Deus desejou para ser sua habitação; e o SENHOR habitará [nele] para sempre.
17 [After we defeated all our enemies], [it was as though] the Lord, surrounded by many thousands of strong chariots, descended from Sinai [Mountain] and came into the sacred temple [in Jerusalem].
As carruagens de Deus são várias dezenas de milhares; o Senhor está entre elas, [como] em Sinai, em [seu] santuário.
18 He ascended the sacred mountain [where his temple is], and took with him many people who had been captured [in battles]; and received gifts from the enemies [whom he had defeated]. He received gifts even from those who had rebelled against him, and Yahweh our God will live there [in his sacred temple] forever.
Tu subiste ao alto, levaste cativos, recebeste bens dos homens, até dos rebeldes, para que [ali] o SENHOR Deus habitasse.
19 Praise the Lord, who [helps us] carry our heavy loads every day; he is the one who saves/rescues us.
Bendito seja o Senhor; dia após dia ele nos carrega; Deus [é] nossa salvação. (Selá)
20 Our God is the God who saves us; He is Yahweh, our Lord, the one who (allows us to escape/prevents us) from being killed [in battles].
Nosso Deus [é] um Deus de salvação; e com o Senhor DEUS há livramento para a morte;
21 But God will smash the heads of his enemies, the skulls of those who continue to behave sinfully.
Pois Deus ferirá a cabeça de seus inimigos, o topo da cabeça, onde ficam os cabelos, daquele que anda na prática de suas transgressões.
22 The Lord said, “I will bring back the [corpses of those who were killed in] Bashan, and I will bring back those who sank deep in the ocean [and drowned].
O Senhor disse: Eu [os] farei voltar de Basã; eu [os] farei voltar das profundezas do mar.
23 I will do that in order that you may wash your feet in their blood, and your dogs can [also] lap up some of your enemies’ blood.”
Para que metas teu pé no sangue dos teus inimigos; e nele [também] terá uma parte a língua de cada um de teus cães.
24 God, many people see you march triumphantly into your sacred temple, [celebrating that you have defeated your enemies]. You [march like] a king does, and a large crowd walks with you.
Viram teus caminhos, ó Deus; os caminhos de meu Deus, meu Rei, no santuário.
25 The singers are in front, and the people who play stringed instruments are at the rear, and young women who are beating their tambourines are between them.
Os cantores vieram adiante, depois os instrumentistas; entre eles as virgens tocadoras de tamborins.
26 [They are all singing], “You Israeli people, praise God when you gather together; praise Yahweh, all you who are descendants of Jacob!”
Bendizei a Deus nas congregações; [bendizei] ao SENHOR, desde a fonte de Israel.
27 First come [the people of the tribe of] Benjamin, the smallest [tribe], and following them come the leaders of [the tribe of] Judah and their group, and following them come the leaders of [the tribes of] Zebulun and Naphtali.
Ali [está] o pequeno Benjamim, que domina sobre eles; os chefes de Judá e a congregação deles; os chefes de Zebulom, [e] os chefes de Nafitali.
28 God, show people that you are very powerful; show people the power with which you have helped us previously.
Teu Deus ordenou tua força; fortalece, ó Deus, o que já operaste por nós.
29 Show that power from your temple in Jerusalem, where kings bring gifts to you.
Ao teu templo, em Jerusalém, os Reis te trarão presentes.
30 Rebuke [your enemies, such as those in Egypt who are like] wild hippopotamuses/animals that live in the reeds; and [powerful nations that are like] bulls that are among their calves [MET]; rebuke/trample them until they bow down and give you gifts of silver. Scatter the people who enjoy making wars.
Repreende a fera das canas, a multidão de touros, juntamente com as bezerras dos povos; aos que humilham a si mesmos em [troca] de peças e prata; dissipa aos povos que gostam da guerra.
31 Then people will bring gifts of bronze (OR, of cloth) to you from Egypt; the people in Ethiopia will lift up their hands [to praise you].
Embaixadores virão do Egito; Cuxe correrá para [estender] suas mãos a Deus.
32 [You people who are citizens of] kingdoms/countries all over the world, sing to God! Sing praises to the Lord!
Reinos da terra, cantai a Deus; cantai louvores ao Senhor. (Selá)
33 Sing to the God, the one who rides across the sky, the sky that [he created] long ago. Listen as he shouts with a very powerful voice.
Ele anda montado por entre os céus desde os tempos antigos; eis que sua voz fala poderosamente.
34 Proclaim that God is very powerful; he is the king that rules over Israel, and in the skies [he also shows that] he is powerful.
Reconhecei o poder de Deus; sobre Israel [está] sua exaltação, e sua força [está] nas altas nuvens.
35 God is awesome as he comes out of his sacred temple; he is the God whom [we] Israeli people [worship]. He makes [DOU] his people very powerful. Praise God!
Deus, tu és temível desde teus santuários; o Deus de Israel é o que dá força e poder ao povo. Bendito seja Deus!
