اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 50

١ 1 مَزْمُورٌ لِآسَافَ إِلَهُ ٱلْآلِهَةِ ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمَ، وَدَعَا ٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْ مَشْرِقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ إِلَى مَغْرِبِهَا.

A psalm of Asaph. The Lord, the Almighty God, speaks! He summons everyone on earth, from the east to the west.

٢ 2 مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ، كَمَالِ ٱلْجَمَالِ، ٱللهُ أَشْرَقَ.

God shines out of Mount Zion, perfect in beauty.

٣ 3 يَأْتِي إِلَهُنَا وَلَا يَصْمُتُ. نَارٌ قُدَّامَهُ تَأْكُلُ، وَحَوْلَهُ عَاصِفٌ جِدًّا.

Our God arrives, and does not stay quiet. Fire flames before him, burning everything up; a violent storm rages around him.

٤ 4 يَدْعُو ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَٱلْأَرْضَ إِلَى مُدَايَنَةِ شَعْبِهِ:

He summons the heavens above and the earth to witness the judgment of his people.

٥ 5 «ٱجْمَعُوا إِلَيَّ أَتْقِيَائِي، ٱلْقَاطِعِينَ عَهْدِي عَلَى ذَبِيحَةٍ».

“Bring me those who trust in me—those who confirmed the agreement with me through sacrifice.”

٦ 6 وَتُخْبِرُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ بِعَدْلِهِ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ هُوَ ٱلدَّيَّانُ. سِلَاهْ.

The heavens declare his decisions are right, for God himself is the judge. (Selah)

٧ 7 «اِسْمَعْ يَا شَعْبِي فَأَتَكَلَّمَ. يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ فَأَشْهَدَ عَلَيْكَ: ٱللهُ إِلَهُكَ أَنَا.

“My people, listen to what I have to say. I am bringing charges against you, Israel. I am God, your God!

٨ 8 لَا عَلَى ذَبَائِحِكَ أُوَبِّخُكَ، فَإِنَّ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ هِيَ دَائِمًا قُدَّامِي.

I'm not complaining about your sacrifices or burnt offerings that you offer all the time.

٩ 9 لَا آخُذُ مِنْ بَيْتِكَ ثَوْرًا، وَلَا مِنْ حَظَائِرِكَ أَعْتِدَةً.

I do not require bulls from your barns or goats from your pens,

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّ لِي حَيَوَانَ ٱلْوَعْرِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلْأُلُوفِ.

for I own all the animals of the forest, and the cattle on a thousand hills belong to me.

١١ 11 قَدْ عَلِمْتُ كُلَّ طُيُورِ ٱلْجِبَالِ، وَوُحُوشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ عِنْدِي.

I know every bird of the mountains; all living things in the fields are mine.

١٢ 12 إِنْ جُعْتُ فَلَا أَقُولُ لَكَ، لِأَنَّ لِي ٱلْمَسْكُونَةَ وَمِلْأَهَا.

If I were hungry, I wouldn't tell you, for the earth and everything in it are mine.

١٣ 13 هَلْ آكُلُ لَحْمَ ٱلثِّيرَانِ، أَوْ أَشْرَبُ دَمَ ٱلتُّيُوسِ؟

Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?

١٤ 14 اِذْبَحْ لِلهِ حَمْدًا، وَأَوْفِ ٱلْعَلِيَّ نُذُورَكَ،

Give an offering of thanks to God; keep the promises you made to the Most High,

١٥ 15 وَٱدْعُنِي فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضِّيقِ أُنْقِذْكَ فَتُمَجِّدَنِي».

and call on me when you're in trouble. I will rescue you, and you will thank me.”

١٦ 16 وَلِلشِّرِّيرِ قَالَ ٱللهُ: «مَا لَكَ تُحَدِّثُ بِفَرَائِضِي وَتَحْمِلُ عَهْدِي عَلَى فَمِكَ؟

But to the wicked God says, “What's the point of mechanically repeating my laws or making empty promises about obeying the agreement?

١٧ 17 وَأَنْتَ قَدْ أَبْغَضْتَ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ وَأَلْقَيْتَ كَلَامِي خَلْفَكَ.

You hate my discipline, and you toss my words away, leaving them behind you.

١٨ 18 إِذَا رَأَيْتَ سَارِقًا وَافَقْتَهُ، وَمَعَ ٱلزُّنَاةِ نَصِيبُكَ.

When you see people stealing, you admire them; you associate with adulterers.

١٩ 19 أَطْلَقْتَ فَمَكَ بِٱلشَّرِّ، وَلِسَانُكَ يَخْتَرِعُ غِشًّا.

With your mouth you say evil things; you use your tongue to spread lies.

٢٠ 20 تَجْلِسُ تَتَكَلَّمُ عَلَى أَخِيكَ. لِٱبْنِ أُمِّكَ تَضَعُ مَعْثَرَةً.

You sit there and speak against your brother, slandering your own mother's son.

٢١ 21 هَذِهِ صَنَعْتَ وَسَكَتُّ. ظَنَنْتَ أَنِّي مِثْلُكَ. أُوَبِّخُكَ، وَأَصُفُّ خَطَايَاكَ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْكَ.

I kept quiet when you did these things. You thought I was someone just like you. But now I confront you, and bring my charges against you.

٢٢ 22 ٱفْهَمُوا هَذَا يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُونَ ٱللهَ، لِئَلَّا أَفْتَرِسَكُمْ وَلَا مُنْقِذَ.

Think again, you people who dismiss God, or I will tear you apart, and no-one will be able to save you.

٢٣ 23 ذَابِحُ ٱلْحَمْدِ يُمَجِّدُنِي، وَٱلْمُقَوِّمُ طَرِيقَهُ أُرِيهِ خَلَاصَ ٱللهِ».

But those who give an offering of thanks honor me, and to those who follow the right I will show them the salvation of God.”
