اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 77

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «يَدُوثُونَ». لِآسَافَ. مَزْمُورٌ صَوْتِي إِلَى ٱللهِ فَأَصْرُخُ. صَوْتِي إِلَى ٱللهِ فَأَصْغَى إِلَيَّ.

For Jeduthun, the music director. A psalm of Asaph. I cry out to God for help—I even shout. If only he would listen to me!

٢ 2 فِي يَوْمِ ضِيْقِي ٱلْتَمَسْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ. يَدِي فِي ٱللَّيْلِ ٱنْبَسَطَتْ وَلَمْ تَخْدَرْ. أَبَتْ نَفْسِي ٱلتَّعْزِيَةَ.

When I was in trouble I prayed to the Lord. All night long I stretched out my hands to him in prayer but nothing brought me any comfort.

٣ 3 أَذْكُرُ ٱللهَ فَأَئِنُّ. أُنَاجِي نَفْسِي فَيُغْشَى عَلَى رُوحِي. سِلَاهْ.

I thought about God, groaning loudly; I meditated on him, but I was discouraged. (Selah)

٤ 4 أَمْسَكْتَ أَجْفَانَ عَيْنَيَّ. ٱنْزَعَجْتُ فَلَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ.

You stop me going to sleep; I'm so upset I can't even talk.

٥ 5 تَفَكَّرْتُ فِي أَيَّامِ ٱلْقِدَمِ، ٱلسِّنِينَ ٱلدَّهْرِيَّةِ.

I think of the old days, years ago.

٦ 6 أَذْكُرُ تَرَنُّمِي فِي ٱللَّيْلِ. مَعَ قَلْبِي أُنَاجِي، وَرُوحِي تَبْحَثُ:

I remember the songs I sung in the night. I meditate and ask myself:

٧ 7 «هَلْ إِلَى ٱلدُّهُورِ يَرْفُضُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَلَا يَعُودُ لِلرِّضَا بَعْدُ؟

Has the Lord given up on me forever? Won't he ever be pleased with me again?

٨ 8 هَلِ ٱنْتَهَتْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتُهُ؟ ٱنْقَطَعَتْ كَلِمَتُهُ إِلَى دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ؟

Has his trustworthy love disappeared forever? Have his promises permanently ended?

٩ 9 هَلْ نَسِيَ ٱللهُ رَأْفَةً؟ أَوْ قَفَصَ بِرِجْزِهِ مَرَاحِمَهُ؟». سِلَاهْ.

Has God forgotten to be kind? Has he angrily slammed the door shut on his compassion? (Selah)

١٠ 10 فَقُلْتُ: «هَذَا مَا يُعِلُّنِي: تَغَيُّرُ يَمِينِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ».

Then I said, “This is what hurts me the most: the Most High doesn't treat me the way he used to.”

١١ 11 أَذْكُرُ أَعْمَالَ ٱلرَّبِّ. إِذْ أَتَذَكَّرُ عَجَائِبَكَ مُنْذُ ٱلْقِدَمِ،

I remember what you have done, Lord; I remember all the wonderful things you did long ago.

١٢ 12 وَأَلْهَجُ بِجَمِيعِ أَفْعَالِكَ، وَبِصَنَائِعِكَ أُنَاجِي.

I will think about all you have accomplished; I will think deeply about how you have acted.

١٣ 13 اَللَّهُمَّ، فِي ٱلْقُدْسِ طَرِيقُكَ. أَيُّ إِلَهٍ عَظِيمٌ مِثْلُ ٱللهِ؟

God, your ways are holy; is any god as great as you?

١٤ 14 أَنْتَ ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلصَّانِعُ ٱلْعَجَائِبَ. عَرَّفْتَ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ قُوَّتَكَ.

You are the God who does wonderful things! You have revealed your power to the nations.

١٥ 15 فَكَكْتَ بِذِرَاعِكَ شَعْبَكَ، بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ وَيُوسُفَ. سِلَاهْ.

Through your strength you saved your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

١٦ 16 أَبْصَرَتْكَ ٱلْمِيَاهُ يَا ٱللهُ، أَبْصَرَتْكَ ٱلْمِيَاهُ فَفَزِعَتْ، اِرْتَعَدَتْ أَيْضًا ٱللُّجَجُ.

When the waters saw you, God, when they looked they trembled! Yes, they shook down to the very depths!

١٧ 17 سَكَبَتِ ٱلْغُيُومُ مِيَاهًا، أَعْطَتِ ٱلسُّحُبُ صَوْتًا. أَيْضًا سِهَامُكَ طَارَتْ.

The clouds poured rain down; the skies crashed with thunder; your lightning flew like arrows.

١٨ 18 صَوْتُ رَعْدِكَ فِي ٱلزَّوْبَعَةِ. ٱلْبُرُوقُ أَضَاءَتِ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةَ. ٱرْتَعَدَتْ وَرَجَفَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ.

Your thunder rumbled from the whirlwind; lightning flashes lit up the world; the earth quaked and shook.

١٩ 19 فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ طَرِيقُكَ، وَسُبُلُكَ فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ، وَآثَارُكَ لَمْ تُعْرَفْ.

Your way led through the sea; your path passed through the deep sea; yet your footprints were invisible.

٢٠ 20 هَدَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ كَٱلْغَنَمِ بِيَدِ مُوسَى وَهارُونَ.

You led your people like a flock, shepherded by Moses and Aaron.
