Žalmy

Biblia - Sväté písmo

(CPDV - Anglický - Catholic PD)

Ž 81, 1-8

1 (CPDV) A Psalm of Asaph. God has stood in the synagogue of gods, but, in their midst, he decides between gods.

2 (CPDV) How long will you judge unjustly and favor the faces of sinners?

3 (CPDV) Judge for the indigent and the orphan. Do justice to the humble and the poor.

4 (CPDV) Rescue the poor, and free the needy from the hand of the sinner.

5 (CPDV) They did not know and did not understand. They wander in darkness. All the foundations of the earth will be moved.

6 (CPDV) I said: You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High.

7 (CPDV) But you will die like men, and you will fall just like one of the princes.

8 (CPDV) Rise up, O God. Judge the earth. For you will inherit it with all the nations.

Z 81 - Žalm je výzvou k náležitej oslave sviatku. Do úvahy prichádzajú len dva sviatky, a to Veľká noc a slávnosť Stánkov. Ide však skôr o Veľkú noc - "pesah" (naznačujú to vv. 6-7).

Z 81,4 - Tento nástroj, hebr. "šôfár", bol jednoduchý baraní alebo kravský roh. Trúbili naň vždy začiatkom mesiaca, v čase "nového mesiaca" (Nm 10,10), ktorý slávili zvláštnymi obetami (Nm 28,11-15). "Splnom mesiaca" sa začínali sviatky Veľkej noci a Stánkov.

Z 81,17 - Metafora na vyjadrenie Božích prisľúbení (Dt 32,13.14; Joel 3,18; Am 9,13).
