Psalmi 80
1 Pazljivo prisluhni, Pastir Izraela, ti, ki vodiš Jožefa kakor trop, ti, ki prebivaš med keruboma, zasij.
[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 Pred Efrájimom, Benjaminom in Manásejem razvnemi svojo moč ter pridi in nas reši.
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 Ponovno nas spreobrni, oh Bog in svojemu obrazu povzroči, da zasije in mi bomo rešeni.
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 Oh Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki, doklej boš jezen proti molitvi svojega ljudstva?
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 Hraniš jih s kruhom solza in jim daješ, da v veliki meri pijejo solze.
[It is as though] the only food and drink that you have given us is a cup full of our tears!
6 Delaš nas prepir našim sosedom in naši sovražniki se smejijo med seboj.
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 Ponovno nas spreobrni, oh Bog nad bojevniki in svojemu obrazu povzroči, da zasije in mi bomo rešeni.
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 Iz Egipta si privedel trto, spodil si pogane in jo zasadil.
[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 Pred njo si pripravil prostor in ji povzročil, da je napravila globoko korenino in napolnila zemljo.
[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 Hribi so bili pokriti z njeno senco in njene veje so bile podobne čednim cedram.
[Like huge] grapevines cover the hills with their shade and their branches are taller than big cedar [trees] [MET, HYP],
11 Njene veje je poslala v morje in njene mladike v reko.
[your people ruled all of Canaan], from the [Mediterranean] Sea [in the west] to the [Euphrates] River [in the east].
12 Zakaj si ti potem podrl njene ograje, tako da jo smukajo vsi, ki gredo mimo po poti?
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 Merjasec iz gozda jo pustoši in poljska žival jo požira.
and wild pigs [can] trample [the vines], and wild animals [can also] eat [the grapes].
14 Vrni se, rotimo te, oh Bog nad bojevniki, poglej dol z neba in glej in obišči to trto
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 in vinograd, ki ga je zasadila tvoja desnica in mladiko, ki si jo zaradi sebe naredil močno.
who are [like] the young vine that you [SYN] planted and caused to grow!
16 Požgana je z ognjem, posekana je. Oni se pogubljajo ob graji tvojega obličja.
Our enemies have torn down and burned everything in our land; look at them angrily and get rid of them!
17 Naj bo tvoja roka nad človekom tvoje desnice, nad sinom človekovim, ki si ga storil močnega zase.
But strengthen [us] people whom you have chosen [IDM], [us] Israeli people whom you [previously] caused to be very strong.
18 Tako od tebe ne bomo odšli nazaj. Oživi nas in mi bomo klicali tvoje ime.
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 Ponovno nas spreobrni, oh Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, svojemu obrazu povzroči, da zasije in mi bomo rešeni.
Yahweh, commander of the armies of heaven, restore us; be kind to us in order that we may be rescued [from our enemies]!
