< Psalmi 83 >

1 Ne bodi tiho, oh Bog. Ne molči in ne bodi molčeč, oh Bog.
A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.
2 Kajti glej, tvoji sovražniki pripravljajo upor in tisti, ki te sovražijo, so povzdignili glavo.
For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.
3 Zoper tvoje ljudstvo so sprejeli prebrisan nasvet in se posvetovali zoper tvoje skrite.
They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy 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, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”
5 Kajti skupaj so se soglasno posvetovali, združeni so zoper tebe:
For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:
6 Edómova šotorska svetišča in Izmaelci; Moábovci in Hagárovci;
the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,
7 Gebál, Amón in Amálek; Filistejci s prebivalci Tira;
and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 pridružen jim je tudi Asúr. Pomagali so Lotovim sinovom. (Sela)
For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.
9 Stôri jim kakor Midjáncem, kakor Siseráju, kakor Jabínu pri potoku Kišón,
Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.
10 ki so bili pokončani pri En Doru. Postali so kakor gnoj za zemljo.
They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.
11 Naredite njihove plemiče kakor Oréba in kakor Zeéba. Da, vse njihove prince kot Zebaha in kot Calmunája,
Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders
12 ki so rekli: »Vzemimo si Božje hiše v posest.«
who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”
13 Oh moj Bog, naredi jih kot pleve, kakor strnišče pred vetrom.
My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.
14 Kakor ogenj požiga gozd in kakor plamen zažiga gore,
Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.
15 tako jih preganjaj s svojim neurjem in s svojim viharjem jih naredi prestrašene.
So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.
16 Njihove obraze napolni s sramoto, da bodo lahko iskali tvoje ime, oh Gospod.
Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.
17 Naj bodo zasramovani in zbegani na veke; da, naj bodo osramočeni in [naj] se pogubijo,
Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.
18 da bodo ljudje lahko vedeli, da si ti, čigar ime samó je Jahve, najvišji nad vso zemljo.
And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.
