Psalmi 76

1 V Judu je Bog poznan. Njegovo ime v Izraelu je veliko.

In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

2 Tudi v Salemu je njegovo šotorsko svetišče in njegovo bivališče na Sionu.

In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

3 Tam je prelomil puščice loka, ščit, meč in bitko. (Sela)

There broke he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)

4 Ti si veličastnejši in odličnejši kakor gore plena.

You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.

5 Arogantni so oplenjeni, spali so svoje spanje. Nihče izmed mogočnih mož ni našel svojih rok.

The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

6 Ob tvojem oštevanju, Bog Jakobov, sta tako bojni voz, kakor konj vržena v smrtno spanje.

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

7 Ti, celó tebe se je bati in kdo lahko stoji v tvojem pogledu, kadar si jezen?

You, even you, are to be feared: and who may stand in your sight when once you are angry?

8 Povzročil si, da se z neba sliši sodba; zemlja se je zbala in postala tiha,

You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 ko je k sodbi vstal Bog, da reši vse krotke na zemlji. (Sela)

When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)

10 Zagotovo te bo hvalil človeški bes. Ostanek besa boš ti obrzdal.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise you: the remainder of wrath shall you restrain.

11 Zaobljubi se in plačaj Gospodu, svojemu Bogu. Naj vsi tisti, ki so okoli njega, prinesejo darila tistemu, ki bi se ga morali bati.

Vow, and pay to the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents to him that ought to be feared.

12 Odrezal bo duha princev. Strašen je do zemeljskih kraljev.

He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
