Salmos 80
1 Tu, que és pastor d'Israel, dá ouvidos: tu, que guias a José como a um rebanho: tu, que te assentas entre os cherubins, resplandece.
[Yahweh], you [who lead us like] a shepherd leads his flock [of sheep], listen to us Israeli people. You sit on your throne [in the Very Holy Place in the temple], above the [carvings of] winged creatures.
2 Perante Ephraim, Benjamin e Manasseh, desperta o teu poder, e vem salvar-nos.
Show yourself to [the people of the tribes of] Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh! Show us that you are powerful and come and rescue us!
3 Faze-nos voltar, ó Deus, e faze resplandecer o teu rosto, e seremos salvos.
God, cause our nation to be strong like it was before; be kind to us [IDM] in order that we may be saved [from our enemies.]
4 Ó Senhor Deus dos Exercitos, até quando te indignarás contra a oração do teu povo
Yahweh, you who are the commander of the armies of heaven, how long will you be angry with us, your people, when we pray to you?
5 Tu os sustentas com pão de lagrimas, e lhes dás a beber lagrimas, com abundancia.
[It is as though] the only food and drink that you have given us is a cup full of our tears!
6 Tu nos pões em contendas com os nossos visinhos: e os nossos inimigos zombam de nós entre si.
You have allowed the people-groups that surround us to fight with [each other to decide which part of our land each of them will take]; our enemies laugh at us.
7 Faze-nos voltar, ó Deus dos Exercitos, e faze resplandecer o teu rosto; e seremos salvos.
God, commander of the armies of heaven, cause our nation to be strong like it was before! Be kind to us in order that we may be saved!
8 Trouxeste uma vinha do Egypto: lançaste fóra as nações, e a plantaste.
[Our ancestors were like] a grapevine [MET] that you brought out of Egypt; you expelled the other people-groups [from this land], and you put your people in their land.
9 Preparaste-lhe logar, e fizeste com que ella deitasse raizes; e encheu a terra.
[Like people] clear ground to plant a grapevine [MET], [you cleared out the people who were living in this land for us to live in it]. [Like] the roots of a grapevine go deep down into the ground and spread [MET], [you enabled our ancestors to prosper and start living in towns all over this land].
10 Os montes foram cobertos da sua sombra, e os seus ramos se fizeram como os formosos cedros.
[Like huge] grapevines cover the hills with their shade and their branches are taller than big cedar [trees] [MET, HYP],
11 Ella estendeu a sua ramagem até ao mar, e os seus ramos até ao rio.
[your people ruled all of Canaan], from the [Mediterranean] Sea [in the west] to the [Euphrates] River [in the east].
12 Porque quebraste então os seus vallados, de modo que todos os que passam por ella a vindimam?
So why have you abandoned us and [allowed our enemies to] tear down our walls [RHQ]? [You are like] someone who tears down the fences [around his vineyard], with the result that all [the people] who pass by [can] steal the grapes,
13 O javali da selva a devasta, e as feras do campo a devoram.
and wild pigs [can] trample [the vines], and wild animals [can also] eat [the grapes].
14 Oh Deus dos Exercitos, volta-te, nós te rogamos, attende dos céus, e vê, e visita esta vide;
You who are the commander of the armies of heaven, (turn to/stop abandoning) us! Look down from heaven and see [what is happening to] us! Come and rescue [us who are like] [MET] your grapevine,
15 E a videira que a tua dextra plantou, e o sarmento que fortificaste para ti.
who are [like] the young vine that you [SYN] planted and caused to grow!
16 Está queimada pelo fogo, está cortada: pereceu pela reprehensão da tua face.
Our enemies have torn down and burned everything in our land; look at them angrily and get rid of them!
17 Seja a tua mão sobre o varão da tua dextra, sobre o filho do homem, que fortificaste para ti.
But strengthen [us] people whom you have chosen [IDM], [us] Israeli people whom you [previously] caused to be very strong.
18 Assim nós não te viraremos as costas; guarda-nos em vida, e invocaremos o teu nome.
When you do that, we will never turn away from you again; (revive us/cause us to be again like we were previously), and [then] we will praise/worship you.
19 Faze-nos voltar, Senhor Deus dos Exercitos: faze resplandecer o teu rosto; e seremos salvos.
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, restore us; be kind to us in order that we may be rescued [from our enemies]!
