اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 83

١ 1 تَسْبِيحَةٌ. مَزْمُورٌ لِآسَافَ اَللَّهُمَّ، لَا تَصْمُتْ. لَا تَسْكُتْ وَلَا تَهْدَأْ يَاٱللهُ.

A Song of a Psalm for Asaph. O God, who shall be compared to you? be not silent, neither be still, O God.

٢ 2 فَهُوَذَا أَعْدَاؤُكَ يَعِجُّونَ، وَمُبْغِضُوكَ قَدْ رَفَعُوا ٱلرَّأْسَ.

For behold, your enemies have made a noise; and they that hate you have lifted up the head.

٣ 3 عَلَى شَعْبِكَ مَكَرُوا مُؤَامَرَةً، وَتَشَاوَرُوا عَلَى أَحْمِيَائِكَ.

Against your people they have craftily imagined a device, and have taken counsel against your saints.

٤ 4 قَالُوا: «هَلُمَّ نُبِدْهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَلَا يُذْكَرُ ٱسْمُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدُ».

They have said, Come, and let us utterly destroy them out of the nation; and let the name of Israel be remembered no more at all.

٥ 5 لِأَنَّهُمْ تَآمَرُوا بِٱلْقَلْبِ مَعًا. عَلَيْكَ تَعَاهَدُوا عَهْدًا.

For they have taken counsel together with one consent: they have made a confederacy against you;

٦ 6 خِيَامُ أَدُومَ وَٱلْإِسْمَاعِيلِيِّينَ، مُوآبُ وَٱلْهَاجَرِيُّونَ.

even the tents of the Idumeans, and the Ismaelites; Moab, and the Agarenes;

٧ 7 جِبَالُ وَعَمُّونُ وَعَمَالِيقُ، فَلَسْطِينُ مَعَ سُكَّانِ صُورٍ.

Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalec; the Philistines also, with them that dwell at Tyre.

٨ 8 أَشُّورُ أَيْضًا ٱتَّفَقَ مَعَهُمْ. صَارُوا ذِرَاعًا لِبَنِي لُوطٍ. سِلَاهْ.

Yes, Assur too is come with them: they have become a help to the children of Lot. (Pause)

٩ 9 اِفْعَلْ بِهِمْ كَمَا بِمِدْيَانَ، كَمَا بِسِيسَرَا، كَمَا بِيَابِينَ فِي وَادِي قِيشُونَ.

Do you to them as to Madiam, and to Sisera; as to Jabin at the brook of Kison.

١٠ 10 بَادُوا فِي عَيْنِ دُورٍ. صَارُوا دِمَنًا لِلْأَرْضِ.

They were utterly destroyed at Aendor: they became as dung for the earth.

١١ 11 ٱجْعَلْهُمْ، شُرَفَاءَهُمْ مِثْلَ غُرَابٍ، وَمِثْلَ ذِئْبٍ. وَمِثْلَ زَبَحَ، وَمِثْلَ صَلْمُنَّاعَ كُلَّ أُمَرَائِهِمْ.

Make their princes as Oreb and Zeb, and Zebee and Salmana; [even] all their princes:

١٢ 12 ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوا: «لِنَمْتَلِكْ لِأَنْفُسِنَا مَسَاكِنَ ٱللهِ».

who said, let us take to ourselves the altar of God as an inheritance.

١٣ 13 يَا إِلَهِي، ٱجْعَلْهُمْ مِثْلَ ٱلْجُلِّ، مِثْلَ ٱلْقَشِّ أَمَامَ ٱلرِّيحِ.

O my God, make them as a wheel; as stubble before the face of the wind.

١٤ 14 كَنَارٍ تَحْرِقُ ٱلْوَعْرَ، كَلَهِيبٍ يُشْعِلُ ٱلْجِبَالَ.

As fire which shall burn up a wood, as the flame may consume the mountains;

١٥ 15 هَكَذَا ٱطْرُدْهُمْ بِعَاصِفَتِكَ، وَبِزَوْبَعَتِكَ رَوِّعْهُمْ.

so shall you persecute them with your tempest, and trouble them in your anger.

١٦ 16 ٱمْلَأْ وُجُوهَهُمْ خِزْيًا، فَيَطْلُبُوا ٱسْمَكَ يَارَبُّ.

Fill their faces with dishonour; so shall they seek your name, O Lord.

١٧ 17 لِيَخْزَوْا وَيَرْتَاعُوا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَلْيَخْجَلُوا وَيَبِيدُوا،

Let them be ashamed and troubled for evermore; yes, let them be confounded and destroyed.

١٨ 18 وَيَعْلَمُوا أَنَّكَ ٱسْمُكَ يَهْوَهُ وَحْدَكَ، ٱلْعَلِيُّ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

And let them know that your name is Lord; that you alone are Most High over all the earth.
