< Psalms 60 >

1 For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction, when he [had] burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joab [had] returned and smitten [in] the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us.
Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Ljiljan svjedočanstva”. Miktam. Davidov. Kad je David izišao protiv Aram Naharajima i protiv Aram Sobe i kad je Joab na povratku potukao dvanaest tisuća Edomaca Bože, ti nas ÓodbÄaci i bojne nam redove prÓobi, razjari se, a sad nas opet vrati!
2 Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
Potrese zemlju, rasječe je, zatvori joj usjeline jer se poljuljala.
3 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things: thou has made us drink the wine of astonishment.
Zlu si kob na svoj narod navalio, napio nas vinom omamnim.
4 Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, that they might flee from the bow. (Pause)
Al' si i stijeg dao vjernicima svojim da umaknu luku dušmanskom.
5 That thy beloved ones may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
Da ti se ljubimci izbave, desnicom pomozi, usliši nas!
6 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents.
Bog reče u svom Svetištu: “Šekem ću razdijelit' kličući, dolinu Sukot izmjeriti.
7 Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head;
Moj je Gilead, moj Manaše, Efrajim mi kaciga, Judeja žezlo moje!
8 Judas is my king; Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I stretch out my shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to me.
Moab je sud iz kojeg se umivam, na Edom ću baciti obuću, nad Filistejcem slavit' pobjedu!”
9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far a Idumea?
Tko će me dovesti do utvrđena grada, tko će me dovesti do Edoma?
10 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our forces?
Zar nećeš ti, o Bože, što nas odbaci? Zar više nećeš, Bože, s četama našim?
11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the deliverance of man.
Pomozi nam protiv dušmana, jer ljudska je pomoć ništavna!
12 In God will we do valiantly; and he shall bring to nought them that harass us.
S pomoću Božjom hrabro ćemo se boriti, a on će zgaziti naše dušmane.
