< Psalmi 81 >
1 Glasno prepevajte Bogu, naši môči, naredite radosten glas Jakobovemu Bogu.
TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. BY ASAPH. Cry aloud to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob.
2 Vzemite psalm in prinesite sèm tamburin, prijetno harfo s plunko.
Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp with stringed instrument.
3 Trobite na šofar ob mlaju, ob določenem času na naš slovesni praznični dan.
Blow a horn in the month, In the new moon, at the day of our festival,
4 Kajti to je bil zakon za Izraela in postava Jakobovega Boga.
For it [is] a statute to Israel, An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 To je odredil v Jožefu za pričevanje, ko je šel ven skozi egiptovsko deželo, kjer sem slišal jezik, ki ga nisem razumel:
He has placed it—a testimony on Joseph, In his going forth over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known—I hear.
6 »Njegovo ramo sem odstranil od bremena, njegove roke so bile osvobojene pred lonci.
I turned aside his shoulder from the burden, His hands pass over from the basket.
7 Ti kličeš v stiski in jaz sem te osvobodil, odgovoril sem ti na skrivnem kraju groma. Jaz sem te preizkusil pri vodah Meríbe. (Sela)
In distress you have called and I deliver you, I answer you in the secret place of thunder, I try you by the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
8 Poslušaj, oh moje ljudstvo, pričeval ti bom, oh Izrael, če bi mi hotel prisluhniti.
Hear, O My people, and I testify to you, O Israel, if you listen to me:
9 V tebi naj ne bo tujega boga niti ne boš oboževal nobenega tujega boga.
There is not in you a strange god, And you do not bow yourself to a strange god.
10 Jaz sem Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki te je privedel iz egiptovske dežele. Široko odpri svoja usta in napolnil jih bom.
I [am] your God YHWH, Who brings you up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge your mouth, and I fill it.
11 Toda moje ljudstvo noče prisluhniti mojemu glasu in Izrael noče ničesar od mene.
But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel has not consented to Me.
12 Tako sem jih izročil njihovim lastnim srčnim željam in živeli so po svojih lastnih nasvetih.
And I send them away in the enmity of their heart, They walk in their own counsels.
13 Oh, da bi mi moje ljudstvo prisluhnilo in bi Izrael hodil po mojih poteh!
O that My people were listening to Me, Israel would walk in My ways.
14 Kmalu bi podjarmil njihove sovražnike in svojo roko obrnil zoper njihove nasprotnike.
As a little thing I cause their enemies to bow, And I turn back My hand against their adversaries,
15 Gospodovi sovražniki bi se morali podvreči pod njega, pa bi se njihov čas ohranil na veke.
Those hating YHWH should have feigned [obedience] to Him, And their time would last for all time.
16 Hranil bi jih tudi z najodličnejšo pšenico in z medom iz skale bi te nasitil.«
He causes him to eat of the fat of wheat, And I satisfy you [with] honey from a rock!
