Psalmi 83

1 Pjesma. Psalam. Asafov. Ne šuti, Jahve, ne budi nijem i nemoj mirovati, Bože!

A Song. A Psalm. Of Asaph. O God, do not keep quiet: let your lips be open and take no rest, O God.

2 Jer evo: dušmani tvoji buče, i mrzitelji tvoji glave podižu.

For see! those who make war on you are out of control; your haters are lifting up their heads.

3 Protiv naroda se tvoga rote i svjetuju se protiv štićenika tvojih.

They have made wise designs against your people, talking together against those whom you keep in a secret place.

4 Govore: “Dođite, zatrimo ih da ne budu narod, nek' se ime Izrael više ne spominje!”

They have said, Come, let us put an end to them as a nation; so that the name of Israel may go out of man's memory.

5 Zaista, jednodušno se svjetuju i protiv tebe savez sklopiše:

For they have all come to an agreement; they are all joined together against you:

6 šatori edomski i Jišmaelci, Moapci i Hagrijci,

The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagarites;

7 Gebal i Amon i Amalek, Filisteja sa stanovnicima Tira.

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek; the Philistines and the people of Tyre;

8 I Asirci se s njima udružiše, pružiše ruke potomcima Lotovim.

Assur is joined with them; they have become the support of the children of Lot. (Selah)

9 Učini njima k'o Midjancima, k'o Siseri i Jabinu na potoku Kišonu:

Do to them what you did to the Midianites; what you did to Sisera and Jabin, at the stream of Kishon:

10 koji padoše blizu En-Dora i postaše gnojivo njivi.

Who came to destruction at En-dor; their bodies became dust and waste.

11 K'o Oreb i Zeb neka budu knezovi njihovi, kao Zebah i Salmuna nek' budu sve vođe njihove

Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna:

12 koji jednodušno vikahu: “Osvojimo krajeve Božje!”

Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.

13 Daj, o Bože, da budu kao kovitlac, kao pljeva koju nosi vjetar.

O my God, make them like the rolling dust; like dry stems before the wind.

14 Kao što oganj proždire šumu, kao što plamen sažiže bregove,

As fire burning a wood, and as a flame causing fire on the mountains,

15 tako ih goni olujom svojom, prestravi ih svojom žestinom!

So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.

16 Pokrij im lice sramotom, da traže tvoje ime, Jahve!

Let their faces be full of shame; so that they may give honour to your name, O Lord.

17 Neka se stide i plaše navijek, neka se posrame i neka izginu!

Let them be overcome and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and come to destruction;

18 Nek' znaju: ti si komu je ime Jahve, jedini Višnji nada svom zemljom.

So that men may see that you only, whose name is Yahweh, are Most High over all the earth.
