اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 74
| قَصِيدَةٌ لِآسَافَ لِمَاذَا رَفَضْتَنَا يَا ٱللهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ؟ لِمَاذَا يُدَخِّنُ غَضَبُكَ عَلَى غَنَمِ مَرْعَاكَ؟ | ١ 1 |
[A contemplation by Asaph.] God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?
| ٱذْكُرْ جَمَاعَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي ٱقْتَنَيْتَهَا مُنْذُ ٱلْقِدَمِ، وَفَدَيْتَهَا سِبْطَ مِيرَاثِكَ، جَبَلَ صِهْيَوْنَ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي سَكَنْتَ فِيهِ. | ٢ 2 |
Remember your congregation, which you purchased of old, which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance; Mount Zion, in which you have lived.
| ٱرْفَعْ خَطَوَاتِكَ إِلَى ٱلْخِرَبِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ. ٱلْكُلَّ قَدْ حَطَّمَ ٱلْعَدُوُّ فِي ٱلْمَقْدِسِ. | ٣ 3 |
Lift up your feet to the perpetual ruins, all the evil that the enemy has done in the sanctuary.
| قَدْ زَمْجَرَ مُقَاوِمُوكَ فِي وَسَطِ مَعْهَدِكَ، جَعَلُوا آيَاتِهِمْ آيَاتٍ. | ٤ 4 |
Your adversaries have roared in the midst of your assembly. They have set up their standards as signs.
| يَبَانُ كَأَنَّهُ رَافِعُ فُؤُوسٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَشْجَارِ ٱلْمُشْتَبِكَةِ. | ٥ 5 |
They behaved like men wielding axes, cutting through a thicket of trees.
| وَٱلْآنَ مَنْقُوشَاتِهِ مَعًا بِٱلْفُؤُوسِ وَٱلْمَعَاوِلِ يَكْسِرُونَ. | ٦ 6 |
Now they break all its carved work down with hatchet and hammers.
| أَطْلَقُوا ٱلنَّارَ فِي مَقْدِسِكَ. دنَّسُوا لِلْأَرْضِ مَسْكَنَ ٱسْمِكَ. | ٧ 7 |
They have burned your sanctuary to the ground. They have profaned the dwelling place of your Name.
| قَالُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ: «لِنُفْنِينَّهُمْ مَعًا!». أَحْرَقُوا كُلَّ مَعَاهِدِ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٨ 8 |
They said in their heart, "We will crush them completely." They have burned up all the places in the land where God was worshiped.
| آيَاتِنَا لَا نَرَى. لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدُ، وَلَا بَيْنَنَا مَنْ يَعْرِفُ حَتَّى مَتَى. | ٩ 9 |
We see no miraculous signs. There is no longer any prophet, neither is there among us anyone who knows how long.
| حَتَّى مَتَى يَا ٱللهُ يُعَيِّرُ ٱلْمُقَاوِمُ؟ وَيُهِينُ ٱلْعَدُوُّ ٱسْمَكَ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
How long, God, shall the enemy mock? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?
| لِمَاذَا تَرُدُّ يَدَكَ وَيَمِينَكَ؟ أَخْرِجْهَا مِنْ وَسَطِ حِضْنِكَ. أَفْنِ. | ١١ 11 |
Why do you draw back your hand, even your right hand? Take it out of your pocket and consume them.
| وَٱللهُ مَلِكِي مُنْذُ ٱلْقِدَمِ، فَاعِلُ ٱلْخَلَاصِ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Yet God is my King from long ago, working salvation in the midst of the earth.
| أَنْتَ شَقَقْتَ ٱلْبَحْرَ بِقُوَّتِكَ. كَسَرْتَ رُؤُوسَ ٱلتَّنَانِينِ عَلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
You divided the sea by your strength. You broke the heads of the sea monsters in the waters.
| أَنْتَ رَضَضْتَ رُؤُوسَ لِوِيَاثَانَ. جَعَلْتَهُ طَعَامًا لِلشَّعْبِ، لِأَهْلِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ١٤ 14 |
You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces. You gave him as food to people and desert creatures.
| أَنْتَ فَجَّرْتَ عَيْنًا وَسَيْلًا. أَنْتَ يَبَّسْتَ أَنْهَارًا دَائِمَةَ ٱلْجَرَيَانِ. | ١٥ 15 |
You opened up spring and stream. You dried up mighty rivers.
| لَكَ ٱلنَّهَارُ، وَلَكَ أَيْضًا ٱللَّيْلُ. أَنْتَ هَيَّأْتَ ٱلنُّورَ وَٱلشَّمْسَ. | ١٦ 16 |
The day is yours, the night is also yours. You have prepared the light and the sun.
| أَنْتَ نَصَبْتَ كُلَّ تُخُومِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٱلصَّيْفَ وَٱلشِّتَاءَ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهُمَا. | ١٧ 17 |
You have set all the boundaries of the earth. You have made summer and winter.
| اُذْكُرْ هَذَا: أَنَّ ٱلْعَدُوَّ قَدْ عَيَّرَ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَشَعْبًا جَاهِلًا قَدْ أَهَانَ ٱسْمَكَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Remember this, that the enemy has mocked you, LORD. Foolish people have blasphemed your name.
| لَا تُسَلِّمْ لِلْوَحْشِ نَفْسَ يَمَامَتِكَ. قَطِيعَ بَائِسِيكَ لَا تَنْسَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ١٩ 19 |
Do not deliver the soul of your dove to wild beasts. Do not forget the life of your poor forever.
| ٱنْظُرْ إِلَى ٱلْعَهْدِ، لِأَنَّ مُظْلِمَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱمْتَلَأَتْ مِنْ مَسَاكِنِ ٱلظُّلْمِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Honor your covenant, for haunts of violence fill the dark places of the earth.
| لَا يَرْجِعَنَّ ٱلْمُنْسَحِقُ خَازِيًا. ٱلْفَقِيرُ وَٱلْبَائِسُ لِيُسَبِّحَا ٱسْمَكَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Do not let the oppressed return ashamed. Let the poor and needy praise your name.
| قُمْ يَا ٱللهُ. أَقِمْ دَعْوَاكَ. ٱذْكُرْ تَعْيِيرَ ٱلْجَاهِلِ إِيَّاكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Arise, God. Plead your own cause. Remember how the foolish man mocks you all day.
| لَا تَنْسَ صَوْتَ أَضْدَادِكَ، ضَجِيجَ مُقَاوِمِيكَ ٱلصَّاعِدَ دَائِمًا. | ٢٣ 23 |
Do not forget the voice of your adversaries. The tumult of those who rise up against you ascends continually.
