Psalmi 74

Biblija Hrvatski	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Poučna pjesma. Asafova. Zašto si, Bože, posve zabacio, zašto kiptiš gnjevom na ovce paše svoje?	1 Understanding for Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast us off unto the end: why is thy wrath enkindled against the sheep of thy pasture?
2 Sjeti se zajednice koju si davno stekao, plemena koje namače kao svoju baštinu i brda Siona gdje si šator svoj udario!	2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast possessed from the beginning. The sceptre of thy inheritance which thou hast redeemed: mount Sion in which thou hast dwelt.
3 Korakni k ruševinama vječnim – sve je u Svetištu razorio neprijatelj.	3 Lift up thy hands against their pride unto the end; see what things the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
4 Protivnici tvoji vikahu posred skupštine tvoje, znakove svoje postaviše k’o pobjedne znakove.	4 And they that hate thee have made their boasts, in the midst of thy solemnity. They have set up their ensigns for signs,
5 Bijahu kao oni koji mašu sjekirom po guštari,	5 and they knew not both in the going out and on the highest top. As with axes in a wood of trees,
6 sjekirom i maljem vrata mu razbijali.	6 they have cut down at once the gates thereof, with axe and hatchet they have brought it down.
7 Ognju predadoše svetište tvoje, do zemlje oskvrnuše prebivalište tvoga imena.	7 They have set fire to thy sanctuary: they have defiled the dwelling place of thy name on the earth.
8 Rekoše u srcu: »Istrijebimo ih zajedno; spalite sva svetišta Božja na zemlji!«	8 They said in their heart, the whole kindred of them together: Let us abolish all the festival days of God from the land.
9 Ne vidimo znakova svojih, proroka više nema, i nitko među nama ne zna dokle ...	9 Our signs we have not seen, there is now no prophet: and he will know us no more.
10 Dokle će se još, o Bože, dušmanin rugati? Hoće li protivnik dovijeka prezirati ime tvoje?	10 How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach: is the adversary to provoke thy name for ever?
11 Zašto povlačiš ruku, zašto u krilu sakrivaš desnicu svoju?	11 Why dost thou turn away thy hand: and thy right hand out of the midst of thy bosom for ever ?
12 No Bog je moj kralj od davnine, on koji posred zemlje spašava!	12 But God is our king before ages: he hath wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 Ti svojom silom rasječe more, smrska glave nakazama u vodi.	13 Thou by thy strength didst make the sea firm: thou didst crush the heads of the dragons in the waters.
14 Ti si Levijatanu glave zdrobio, dao ga za hranu nemanima morskim.	14 Thou hast broken the heads of the dragon: thou hast given him to be meat for the people of the Ethiopians.
15 Ti si dao da provre izvor i bujica, ti si presušio rijeke nepresušne.	15 Thou hast broken up the fountains and the torrents: thou hast dried up the Ethan rivers.
16 Tvoj je dan i noć je tvoja, ti ùčvrsti mjesec i sunce;	16 Thine is the day, and thine is the night: thou hast made the morning light and the sun.
17 ti sazda sve granice zemlji, ti stvori ljeto i zimu.	17 Thou hast made all the borders of the earth: the summer and the spring were formed by thee.
18 Spomeni se ovoga: dušmanin ti se rugaše, Jahve, i bezumni narod pogrdi ime tvoje.	18 Remember this, the enemy hath reproached the Lord: and a foolish people hath provoked thy name.
19 Ne predaj jastrebu život grlice svoje, i život svojih siromaha ne zaboravi zauvijek!	19 Deliver not up to beasts the souls that confess to thee: and forget not to the end the souls of thy poor.
20 Pogledaj na savez svoj, jer svi su zakutci zemlje puni tmina i nasilja.	20 Have regard to thy covenant: for they that are the obscure of the earth have been filled with dwellings of iniquity.
21 Ne daj da jadnik otiđe postiđen: neka siromah i ubog hvale ime tvoje!	21 Let not the humble be turned away with confusion: the poor and needy shall praise thy name.
22 Ustani, Bože, zauzmi se za svoju parnicu, spomeni se pogrde koju ti bezumnik svaki dan nanosi.	22 Arise, O God, judge thy own cause: remember thy reproaches with which the foolish man hath reproached thee all the day.
23 Ne zaboravi vike neprijatelja svojih: buka buntovnika još se diže k tebi!	23 Forget not the voices of thy enemies: the pride of them that hate thee ascendeth continually.
