لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ٱلسُّوسَنِّ». شَهَادَةٌ مُذَهَّبَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِلتَّعْلِيمِ. عِنْدَ مُحَارَبَتِهِ أَرَامَ ٱلنَّهْرَيْنِ وَأَرَامَ صُوبَةَ، فَرَجَعَ يُوآبُ وَضَرَبَ مِنْ أَدُومَ فِي وَادِي ٱلْمِلْحِ ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا. يَا ٱللهُ رَفَضْتَنَا. ٱقْتَحَمْتَنَا. سَخِطْتَ. أَرْجِعْنَا. ١ 1
For the leader. On shushan eduth. A michtam of David (for teaching), when he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and defeated twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. O God, you have spurned and broken us, routing us in your wrath – restore us!
زَلْزَلْتَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، فَصَمْتَهَا. ٱجْبُرْ كَسْرَهَا لِأَنَّهَا مُتَزَعْزِعَةٌ! ٢ 2
You have shaken the land and cleft it; heal its tottering breaches.
أَرَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ عُسْرًا. سَقَيْتَنَا خَمْرَ ٱلتَّرَنُّحِ. ٣ 3
You have made your people drink hardship, and given us wine of reeling.
أَعْطَيْتَ خَائِفِيكَ رَايَةً تُرْفَعُ لِأَجْلِ ٱلْحَقِّ. سِلَاهْ. ٤ 4
You have given those who fear you a banner, a rallying-place from the bow, (Selah)
لِكَيْ يَنْجُوَ أَحِبَّاؤُكَ. خَلِّصْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَٱسْتَجِبْ لِي! ٥ 5
for the rescue of your beloved. Save by your right hand and answer us.
ٱللهُ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ بِقُدْسِهِ: «أَبْتَهِجُ، أَقْسِمُ شَكِيمَ، وَأَقِيسُ وَادِيَ سُكُّوتَ. ٦ 6
God did solemnly swear: ‘As victor will I divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
لِي جِلْعَادُ وَلِي مَنَسَّى، وَأَفْرَايِمُ خُوذَةُ رَأْسِي، يَهُوذَا صَوْلَجَانِي. ٧ 7
Mine is Gilead, mine is Manasseh, Ephraim is the defence of my head, Judah my sceptre of rule,
مُوآبُ مِرْحَضَتِي. عَلَى أَدُومَ أَطْرَحُ نَعْلِي. يَا فَلَسْطِينُ ٱهْتِفِي عَلَيَّ». ٨ 8
Moab the pot that I wash in, Edom – I cast my shoe over it, I shout o’er Philistia in triumph.’
مَنْ يَقُودُنِي إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةِ؟ مَنْ يَهْدِينِي إِلَى أَدُومَ؟ ٩ 9
O to be brought to the fortified city! O to be led into Edom!
أَلَيْسَ أَنْتَ يَا ٱللهُ ٱلَّذِي رَفَضْتَنَا، وَلَا تَخْرُجُ يَا ٱللهُ مَعَ جُيُوشِنَا؟ ١٠ 10
Have you not spurned us, O God? You do not march forth with our armies.
أَعْطِنَا عَوْنًا فِي ٱلضِّيقِ، فَبَاطِلٌ هُوَ خَلَاصُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ. ١١ 11
Grant us help from the foe, for human help is worthless.
بِٱللهِ نَصْنَعُ بِبَأْسٍ، وَهُوَ يَدُوسُ أَعْدَاءَنَا. ١٢ 12
With God we shall yet do bravely: he himself will tread down our foes.
