< Psalmi 83 >

1 Ne bodi tiho, oh Bog. Ne molči in ne bodi molčeč, oh Bog.
A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, do not be silent! Do not ignore us and remain unmoved, God.
2 Kajti glej, tvoji sovražniki pripravljajo upor in tisti, ki te sovražijo, so povzdignili glavo.
Look, your enemies are making a commotion, and those who hate you have raised their heads.
3 Zoper tvoje ljudstvo so sprejeli prebrisan nasvet in se posvetovali zoper tvoje skrite.
They conspire against your people and plan together against your protected 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 destroy them as a nation. Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”
5 Kajti skupaj so se soglasno posvetovali, združeni so zoper tebe:
They have schemed together with one strategy; against you they have made an alliance.
6 Edómova šotorska svetišča in Izmaelci; Moábovci in Hagárovci;
This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, and the people of Moab and the Hagrites, who plot together with
7 Gebál, Amón in Amálek; Filistejci s prebivalci Tira;
Gebal, Ammon, Amalek; it also includes Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 pridružen jim je tudi Asúr. Pomagali so Lotovim sinovom. (Sela)
Assyria also is allied with them; they are helping the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
9 Stôri jim kakor Midjáncem, kakor Siseráju, kakor Jabínu pri potoku Kišón,
Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 ki so bili pokončani pri En Doru. Postali so kakor gnoj za zemljo.
They perished at Endor and became like manure 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 Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
12 ki so rekli: »Vzemimo si Božje hiše v posest.«
They said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13 Oh moj Bog, naredi jih kot pleve, kakor strnišče pred vetrom.
My God, make them like the whirling dust, like chaff before the wind,
14 Kakor ogenj požiga gozd in kakor plamen zažiga gore,
like the fire that burns the forest, and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
15 tako jih preganjaj s svojim neurjem in s svojim viharjem jih naredi prestrašene.
Chase them with your strong wind, and terrify them with your windstorm.
16 Njihove obraze napolni s sramoto, da bodo lahko iskali tvoje ime, oh Gospod.
Fill their faces with shame so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
17 Naj bodo zasramovani in zbegani na veke; da, naj bodo osramočeni in [naj] se pogubijo,
May they be put to shame and be terrified forever; may they perish in disgrace.
18 da bodo ljudje lahko vedeli, da si ti, čigar ime samó je Jahve, najvišji nad vso zemljo.
Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.
