Psalmi 68
1 Naj vstane Bog, naj bodo njegovi sovražniki razkropljeni. Naj tudi tisti, ki ga sovražijo, bežijo pred njim.
To the Chief Musician. David’s. A Melody, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, Yea let them that hate him flee before him:
2 Kakor je pregnan dim, tako jih preženi. Kakor se vosek stopi pred ognjem, tako naj bodo zlobni pogubljeni pred prisotnostjo Boga.
As smoke is driven about, Let them be driven about, —As wax is melted before a fire, Let the lawless perish before God.
3 Toda pravični naj bodo veseli, naj se veselijo pred Bogom. Da, naj se silno veselijo.
But let, the righteous, be glad, let them exult before God, Yea let them rejoice with gladness.
4 Prepevajte Bogu, prepevajte hvalnice njegovemu imenu. Povzdigujte njega, ki jaha po nebesih s svojim imenom Jah in se veselite pred njim.
Sing ye to God, Make music of his Name, —Lift up (a song), to him that rideth through the waste plains, —Since Yah is his name, exult ye before him.
5 Oče osirotelim in sodnik vdovam je Bog v svojem svetem prebivališču.
The father of the fatherless, And the advocate of widows, Is God, in his holy habitation.
6 Bog osamljene postavlja v družine, osvobaja tiste, ki so zvezani z verigami, toda uporni prebivajo v suhi deželi.
God, is he that causeth the solitary to dwell in a home, That bringeth out prisoners into prosperity, But, the rebellious, have made their habitation in a sunburnt land.
7 Oh Bog, ko si šel naprej pred svojim ljudstvom, ko si korakal skozi divjino, (Sela)
O God! When thou camest forth before thy people, When thou didst stride through the wilderness, (Selah)
8 se je zemlja tresla, tudi nebo je kapljalo ob prisotnosti Boga. Celó sam Sinaj je bil premaknjen ob prisotnosti Boga, Izraelovega Boga.
Earth, trembled, Yea, the heavens, dripped at the presence of God, —This Sinai—at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Ti, oh Bog, si poslal obilen dež, s čimer si potrdil svojo dediščino, ko je bila izmučena.
A bounteous rain, dost thou shed abroad, O God, upon thine inheritance, When exhausted, thou thyself, hast supported it:
10 Tvoja skupnost je prebivala tam. Ti, oh Bog, si od svoje dobrote pripravil za uboge.
Thy living host, have remained therein, Thou dost provide, in thy bounty, for the humbled ones—O God!
11 Gospod je dal besedo. Velika je bila skupina teh, ki so jo razglašali.
Let, My Lord, but give the word, The herald bands, will be a mighty host:
12 Kralji vojská so naglo zbežali; tista pa, ki je ostala doma, je razdelila plen.
Kings of armies, they flee! they flee! And, she that stayeth at home, shall share the spoil.
13 Čeprav si ležala med lonci, boš vendar kakor peruti golobice, [ki sta] pokriti s srebrom in njena peresa z rumenim zlatom.
Though ye rest between the folds, The wings of the dove, shall be covered with silver, And, her pinions, with green-shimmering gold.
14 Ko je Vsemogočni v njej razkropil kralje, je bilo belo kakor sneg na Calmónu.
When the Almighty scattereth kings therein, It will gleam like snow in the gloom:
15 Božja gora je kakor bašánska gora, visoka gora kakor bašánska gora.
A mighty mountain, is the mountain of Bashan, A mountain of peaks, is the mountain of Bashan!—
16 Zakaj poskakujete, ve visoke gore? To je gora, na kateri želi prebivati Bog; da, Gospod bo na njej prebival na veke.
Wherefore start ye up, ye mountains, ye peaks? The mountain God hath coveted for his habitation, Surely, Yahweh will inhabit it ever!
17 Božjih bojnih vozov je dvajset tisoč, celó tisoči angelov. Gospod je med njimi kakor na Sinaju, na svetem kraju.
The chariots of God, are two myriads—thousands repeated, My Lord, is among them Sinai, is in the sanctuary!
18 Ti si se dvignil na visoko, vodil si ujeto ujetništvo. Prejel si darila za ljudi, da, tudi za uporne, da bi med njimi lahko prebival Gospod Bog.
Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led in procession a body of captives, Thou hast received gifts consisting of men, Yea even the rebellious, That, Yah, Elohim, might settle down to rest.
19 Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki nas dnevno zalaga s koristmi, celó Bog rešitve naše duše. (Sela)
Blessed be My Lord! Day by day, he beareth our burden for us, GOD himself, is our salvation. (Selah)
20 Kdor je naš Bog, je Bog rešitve duše in Bogu, Gospodu, pripadajo izhodi pred smrtjo.
The GOD we have, is a GOD of saving deeds, And, due to Yahweh, My Lord, are escapes from death.
21 Toda Bog bo ranil glavo svojih sovražnikov in lasato tême tistega, ki nenehno hodi v svojih prekrških.
Yea, God himself, will smite through the head of his foes, —The hairy crown of him that is marching on in his guilty deeds.
22 Gospod je rekel: »Ponovno bom privedel iz Bašána, ponovno bom svoje ljudstvo privedel iz morskih globin,
Said My Lord, From Bashan, will I bring back, —I will bring back from the depths of the sea:
23 da bo tvoje stopalo lahko pomočeno v krvi tvojih sovražnikov in jezik tvojih psov v istem.«
That thou mayest bathe thy foot in blood, —The tongue of thy dogs, from the foes, hath its portion.
24 Videli so tvoje sprevode, oh Bog, celó sprevode mojega Boga, mojega Kralja, v svetišču.
They have seen thy progress O God, The progress of my GOD, my king into the sanctuary:
25 Pevci so šli spredaj, igralci na glasbila so sledili zadaj, med njimi so bile gospodične, ki so igrale s tamburini.
In front are the singers, Behind are the harpers, In the midst of damsels playing on timbrels:
26 Blagoslavljajte Boga v skupnostih, celó Gospoda, iz Izraelovega studenca.
In the congregations, bless ye God, My Lord, from among the called of Israel:
27 Tam je majhen Benjamin z njihovim vladarjem, Judovi princi in njihov zbor, Zábulonovi princi in Neftálijevi princi.
There, is Benjamin, the Diminutive—ruling them, The princes of Judah—their throng, The princes of Zebulun, The princes of Naphtali.
28 Tvoj Bog je zapovedal tvojo moč. Ojačaj, oh Bog, to, kar si izvršil za nas.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength, —The strength, O God, which thou hast wrought for us.
29 Zaradi tvojega templja pri Jeruzalemu ti bodo kralji prinašali darila.
Because of thy temple above Jerusalem, Unto thee, shall kings bear along a gift—
30 Oštej skupino suličarjev, množico bikov s teleti ljudstva, dokler vsakdo sebe ne podredi s koščki srebra. Razkropi ljudstvo, ki se razveseljuje v vojni.
Rebuke thou, The wild beast of the reeds, The herd of mighty oxen among the calves of the peoples—Each one bowing down with bars of silver, —Scatter thou the peoples, who in wars take delight.
31 Princi bodo prišli iz Egipta, Etiopija bo svoje roke kmalu iztegnila k Bogu.
Ambassadors come out of Egypt, The Ethiopian, eagerly stretcheth out his hands, unto God.
32 Prepevajte Bogu, ve, zemeljska kraljestva, oh prepevajte hvalnice Gospodu, (Sela)
Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God, Praise in song Adonay. (Selah)
33 Njemu, ki jaha po nebes nebesih, ki so bila od davnine; glej, poslal je svoj glas in to mogočen glas.
Unto him that rideth upon the most ancient heavens, Lo! he uttereth his voice, a voice of strength.
34 Moč pripišite Bogu. Njegova odličnost je nad Izraelom in njegova moč je v oblakih.
Ascribe ye strength unto God, —Over Israel, is his majesty, And his strength, in the skies. To be revered is God, for his sanctuary, —
35 Oh Bog, ti si strašen iz svojih svetih prostorov. Izraelov Bog je ta, ki daje svojemu ljudstvu moč in oblast. Blagoslovljen bodi Bog.
As for the GOD of Israel, he, is giving strength and abundant might to the people. Blessed be God!
