< Psalmi 81 >
1 Radujte se Bogu, koji nam daje krjepost; poklikujte Bogu Jakovljevu.
For the Chief Musician; set to the Gittith. A Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
2 Podignite pjesme, dajte bubanj, slatke gusle sa psaltirom.
Take up the psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
3 Trubite o mijeni u trubu, o uštapu radi praznika našega.
Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, at the full moon, on our solemn feast day.
4 Jer je taki zakon u Izrailja, naredba od Boga Jakovljeva.
For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 Za svjedoèanstvo postavi Josifu ovo, kad iðaše na zemlju Misirsku. Jezik, kojega ne znah, èuh:
He appointed it in Joseph for testimony, when he went out over the land of Egypt: [where] I heard a language that I knew not.
6 “Uklonio sam ramena njegova od bremena, ruke njegove oprostiše se kotarica.
I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were freed from the basket.
7 U nevolji si me zazvao, i izbavih te, usliših te usred groma, na vodi Merivi iskušah te.
Thou calledst in trouble, and I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
8 Slušaj, narode moj, i zasvjedoèiæu ti, Izrailju, o kad bi me poslušao:
Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto me!
9 Da ne bude u tebe tuðega Boga, i Bogu stranome nemoj se klanjati.
There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
10 Ja sam Gospod, Bog tvoj, koji sam te izveo iz zemlje Misirske; otvori usta svoja, i ja æu ih napuniti.
I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 Ali ne posluša narod moj glasa mojega, Izrailj ne mari za me.
But my people hearkened not to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
12 I ja ih pustih na volju srca njihova, neka hode po svojim mislima.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13 O kad bi narod moj slušao mene, i sinovi Izrailjevi hodili putovima mojim!
Oh that my people would hearken unto me, that Israel would walk in my ways!
14 Brzo bih pokorio neprijatelje njihove, i na protivnike njihove digao bih ruku svoju;
I should soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their adversaries.
15 Koji mrze na Gospoda, bili bi im pokorni, i dobri dani njihovi bili bi dovijeka;
The haters of the LORD should submit themselves unto him: but their time should endure for ever.
16 Najboljom bi pšenicom hranio njih, i medom bih iz kamena sitio ih.”
He should feed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I satisfy thee.
