< Psalms 76 >

1 People in Judah know God; the Israeli people honor him [MTY].
Al maestro del coro. Su strumenti a corda con cetre. Salmo. Di Asaf. Canto. Dio è conosciuto in Giuda, in Israele è grande il suo nome.
2 His home is in Jerusalem; he lives on Zion [Hill].
E' in Gerusalemme la sua dimora, la sua abitazione, in Sion.
3 There he broke the flaming arrows [that his enemies shot], [and he also broke] their shields and swords and other weapons that they used in battles.
Qui spezzò le saette dell'arco, lo scudo, la spada, la guerra.
4 God, you are glorious! You are like a king [as you return from] the mountains [where you defeated your enemies].
Splendido tu sei, o Potente, sui monti della preda;
5 Their brave soldiers [were killed, and then those who killed them] took away everything that those soldiers had. Those enemies died [EUP], [so] they were unable to use their weapons [any more]!
furono spogliati i valorosi, furono colti dal sonno, nessun prode ritrovava la sua mano.
6 When you, the God whom Jacob [worshiped], rebuked [your enemies], [the result was that their] horses and their riders fell down dead.
Dio di Giacobbe, alla tua minaccia, si arrestarono carri e cavalli.
7 But you cause everyone to be afraid. When you are angry [and you punish people], no one can [RHQ] endure it.
Tu sei terribile; chi ti resiste quando si scatena la tua ira?
8 From heaven you proclaimed that you would judge people, [and then everyone on] the earth was afraid and did not say [anything more],
Dal cielo fai udire la sentenza: sbigottita la terra tace
9 when you arose to declare that you would punish [wicked people] and rescue all those whom they had oppressed.
quando Dio si alza per giudicare, per salvare tutti gli umili della terra.
10 When [you punish those] with whom you are angry, your people will praise you, and [your enemies] who (survive/are not killed) will worship you on your festival days.
L'uomo colpito dal tuo furore ti dà gloria, gli scampati dall'ira ti fanno festa.
11 [So] give to Yahweh the offerings that you promised to give to him; all the people of nearby people-groups should also bring gifts to him, the one who is awesome.
Fate voti al Signore vostro Dio e adempiteli, quanti lo circondano portino doni al Terribile,
12 He humbles [IDM] princes, and [even] causes [great] kings to be terrified.
a lui che toglie il respiro ai potenti; è terribile per i re della terra.
