Psalmi 68
1 Ustaæe Bog, i rasuæe se neprijatelji njegovi, i pobjeæi æe od lica njegova koji mrze na nj.
For the music director. A psalm of David. A song. Stand up, God, and scatter your enemies. Let those who hate him run away from him!
2 Ti æeš ih razagnati kao dim što se razgoni; kao što se vosak topi od ognja, tako æe bezbožnici izginuti od lica Božijega.
Blow them away as if they were smoke; melt them like beeswax in a fire. Let the wicked die in God's presence.
3 A pravednici æe se veseliti, radovaæe se pred Bogom, i slaviti u radosti.
But those who are right with God are happy, and they celebrate in God's presence, full of joy.
4 Pojte Bogu, popijevajte imenu njegovu; ravnite put onome što ide preko pustinje; Gospod mu je ime, radujte mu se.
Sing praises to God! Sing praises to his wonderful reputation! Praise the rider of the clouds—his name is the Lord! Be happy in his presence!
5 Otac je sirotama i sudija udovicama Bog u svetome stanu svom.
He is a father to the orphans, a protector of widows. This is who God is, who lives in his holy place.
6 Bog samcima daje zadrugu, sužnje izvodi na mjesta obilna, a nepokorni žive gdje je suša.
God gives those who are abandoned a family to live with. He sets prisoners free with celebration. But those who rebel live in a desert wasteland.
7 Bože! kad si išao pred narodom svojim, kad si išao preko pustinje,
God, when you led your people out, when you marched through the desert, (Selah)
8 Zemlja se tresijaše, i nebo se rastapaše od lica Božijega, i ovaj Sinaj od lica Boga, Boga Izrailjeva.
the earth quaked, and the heavens shook before God, the one of Sinai; before God, the God of Israel.
9 Blagodatni si dažd izlivao, Bože, i kad iznemagaše dostojanje tvoje, ti si ga krijepio.
You sent plenty of rain to water the promised land; refreshing it when it was dry.
10 Stado tvoje življaše ondje; po dobroti svojoj, Bože, ti si gotovio hranu jadnome.
Your people settled there, and because of your kindness, God, you looked after the poor. (Selah)
11 Gospod daje rijeè; glasnika veliko je mnoštvo.
The Lord gives the command, and a great army of women spread the good news.
12 Carevi nad vojskama bježe, bježe, a koja sjedi doma, dijeli plijen.
The kings of the foreign armies are quick to run away, and the women who stayed at home divide the plunder!
13 Smirivši se u svojim krajevima, vi ste kao golubica, kojoj su krila posrebrena a perje joj se zlatni.
Why are you staying at home? There are ornaments in the shape of a dove with wings of silver and feathers of fine gold to be taken.
14 Kad je svemoguæi rasipao careve na ovoj zemlji, ona se blistaše kao snijeg na Selmonu.
The Almighty scattered the foreign kings like a snowstorm on Mount Zalmon.
15 Gora je Vasanska gora Božija; gora je Vasanska gora humovita.
“Mountain of God,” Mount Bashan, with your many high peaks, Mount Bashan,
16 Zašto gledate zavidljivo, gore humovite? Evo gora, na kojoj omilje Bogu živjeti, i na kojoj æe Gospod živjeti dovijeka.
why do you look enviously, mountain with many peaks, at the mountain God chose as his home, where the Lord will live forever?
17 Kola Božijih ima (sila) tisuæe tisuæa. Meðu njima je Gospod, Sinaj u svetinji.
God's chariots can't be counted; there are thousands and thousands of them. He comes among them from Sinai into his Temple.
18 Ti si izašao na visinu, doveo si roblje, primio darove za ljude, a i za one koji se protive da ovdje nastavaš, Gospode Bože!
As you ascended to your high throne you led a procession of prisoners. You received gifts from the people, even from those who had rebelled against the home of the Lord God.
19 Blagosloven Gospod svaki dan! Ako nas ko pretovara, Bog nam pomaže.
May the Lord be blessed, for every day he carries our burdens. God is our salvation. (Selah)
20 Ovaj je Bog naš Bog spasitelj, u vlasti su Gospodu vrata smrtna.
For us, God is a God who saves. The Lord God provides our escape from death.
21 Gospod satire glavu neprijateljima svojim i vlasato tjeme onoga koji ostaje u bezakonju svojem.
But God will crush the heads of his enemies, the hairy heads of those who continue to sin.
22 Reèe Gospod: od Vasana æu dovesti, dovešæu iz dubine morske,
The Lord says, “I will drag them down from Bashan; I will drag them up from the depths of the sea,
23 Da ti ogrezne noga u krvi neprijateljskoj i jezik pasa tvojih da je liže.
so that you may walk in their blood. Even your dogs will have their share of your enemies.”
24 Vidješe kako ideš, Bože, kako sveto ide Bog moj, car moj.
People watch your processions, God—the processions of my God and King as they go into the Temple.
25 Naprijed iðahu pjevaèi, za njima sviraèi sred djevojaka s bubnjima:
The singers are at the front, the musicians at the back, and in the middle girls playing tambourines.
26 “Na saboru blagosiljajte Gospoda Boga, koji ste iz izvora Izrailjeva!”
Praise God, everyone who has come to worship; praise the Lord, everyone who belongs to Israel.
27 Ondje mladi Venijamin, starješina njihov; knezovi Judini, vladaoci njihovi; knezovi Zavulonovi, knezovi Neftalimovi.
There is the little tribe of Benjamin, followed by the many leaders from Judah; then come the leaders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
28 Bog tvoj darovao ti je silu. Utvrdi, Bože, ovo što si uèinio za nas!
Display your power, God! Reveal your strength, Lord, as you have done for us in the past.
29 U crkvi tvojoj, u Jerusalimu, carevi æe prinositi dare.
Because of your Temple in Jerusalem, kings bring tribute to you.
30 Ukroti zvijer u ritu, kod volova s teocima naroda, da bi popadali pred tobom sa šipkama srebra; raspi narode koji žele bojeve.
Condemn the beasts of the reeds, the bulls and calves! May they be humbled and bring bars of silver in tribute! Scatter the war-loving nations!

Let Egypt come with bronze gifts; let Ethiopia come quickly and hand over their tributes to God!

Sing to God, kingdoms of the earth, sing praises to the Lord. (Selah)

Sing to the rider of the ancient heavens, his strong voice sounding like thunder!
