اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 50

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

“A psalm of Assaph.” The God of gods, the Lord, speaketh, and calleth the earth, from the rising of the sun unto his setting.

٢ 2 مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ، كَمَالِ ٱلْجَمَالِ، ٱللهُ أَشْرَقَ.

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shineth forth.

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

Our God is coming, and will not keep silence: a fire devoureth before him, and round him there rageth a mighty storm.

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

He will call to the heavens above, and to the earth, to judge his people.

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

“Gather together unto me my pious servants, who make a covenant with me by sacrifice.”

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

And the heavens tell of his righteousness; for God is judge himself. (Selah)

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

“Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.

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

Not because of thy sacrifices will I reprove thee; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.

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

I will not take a bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّ لِي حَيَوَانَ ٱلْوَعْرِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلْأُلُوفِ.

For mine are all the beasts of the forest, the cattle upon a thousand mountains.

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

I know all the fowls of the mountains: whatever moveth on the fields is with me.

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

If I were hungry, I would not say it to thee; for mine is the world, and what filleth it.

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

Do I eat the flesh of fatted bulls, or drink the blood of he-goats?

١٤ 14 اِذْبَحْ لِلهِ حَمْدًا، وَأَوْفِ ٱلْعَلِيَّ نُذُورَكَ،

Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay unto the Most High thy vows;

١٥ 15 وَٱدْعُنِي فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضِّيقِ أُنْقِذْكَ فَتُمَجِّدَنِي».

And call on me on the day of distress: I will deliver thee, — and so wilt thou glorify me.”

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

But unto the wicked God saith, “What hast thou to do to relate my statutes, and why bearest thou my covenant upon thy mouth?

١٧ 17 وَأَنْتَ قَدْ أَبْغَضْتَ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ وَأَلْقَيْتَ كَلَامِي خَلْفَكَ.

And yet thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.

١٨ 18 إِذَا رَأَيْتَ سَارِقًا وَافَقْتَهُ، وَمَعَ ٱلزُّنَاةِ نَصِيبُكَ.

When thou seest a thief, then art thou pleased with him, and with adulterers hast thou thy portion.

١٩ 19 أَطْلَقْتَ فَمَكَ بِٱلشَّرِّ، وَلِسَانُكَ يَخْتَرِعُ غِشًّا.

Thou lettest loose thy mouth with evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.

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

Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; against thy own mother's son thou utterest slander.

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

These things hast thou done, and I kept silence: thou didst ween that I am like thyself; [but] I will reprove thee, and set it in order before thy eyes.”

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

Do but reflect on this, ye that forget God, lest I tear [you] in pieces, with none to deliver.

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

Whoso offereth thanksgiving glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his course aright, will I show the salvation of God.
