< Psalmi 83 >

1 Ne bodi tiho, oh Bog. Ne molči in ne bodi molčeč, oh Bog.
Keep not thou silence, O El: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O Elohim.
2 Kajti glej, tvoji sovražniki pripravljajo upor in tisti, ki te sovražijo, so povzdignili glavo.
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 Zoper tvoje ljudstvo so sprejeli prebrisan nasvet in se posvetovali zoper tvoje skrite.
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 Rekli so: »Pridimo in odrežimo jih od tega, da so narod, da Izraelovo ime ne bo več v spominu.«
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 Kajti skupaj so se soglasno posvetovali, združeni so zoper tebe:
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 Edómova šotorska svetišča in Izmaelci; Moábovci in Hagárovci;
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebál, Amón in Amálek; Filistejci s prebivalci Tira;
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 pridružen jim je tudi Asúr. Pomagali so Lotovim sinovom. (Sela)
Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Stôri jim kakor Midjáncem, kakor Siseráju, kakor Jabínu pri potoku Kišón,
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 ki so bili pokončani pri En Doru. Postali so kakor gnoj za zemljo.
Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Naredite njihove plemiče kakor Oréba in kakor Zeéba. Da, vse njihove prince kot Zebaha in kot Calmunája,
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 ki so rekli: »Vzemimo si Božje hiše v posest.«
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of Elohim in possession.
13 Oh moj Bog, naredi jih kot pleve, kakor strnišče pred vetrom.
O my Elohim, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 Kakor ogenj požiga gozd in kakor plamen zažiga gore,
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 tako jih preganjaj s svojim neurjem in s svojim viharjem jih naredi prestrašene.
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Njihove obraze napolni s sramoto, da bodo lahko iskali tvoje ime, oh Gospod.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O YHWH.
17 Naj bodo zasramovani in zbegani na veke; da, naj bodo osramočeni in [naj] se pogubijo,
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 da bodo ljudje lahko vedeli, da si ti, čigar ime samó je Jahve, najvišji nad vso zemljo.
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is YHWH, art the most high over all the earth.
