< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 94 >
يَا إِلَهَ ٱلنَّقَمَاتِ يَارَبُّ، يَا إِلَهَ ٱلنَّقَمَاتِ، أَشْرِقِ. | ١ 1 |
Lord, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth.
ٱرْتَفِعْ يَا دَيَّانَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. جَازِ صَنِيعَ ٱلْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ. | ٢ 2 |
Rise up, judge of the earth, pay back the proud what they deserve.
حَتَّى مَتَى ٱلْخُطَاةُ يَارَبُّ، حَتَّى مَتَى ٱلْخُطَاةُ يَشْمَتُونَ؟ | ٣ 3 |
Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult,
يُبِقُّونَ، يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِوَقَاحَةٍ. كُلُّ فَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ يَفْتَخِرُونَ. | ٤ 4 |
with their blustering arrogant words, their braggart and wicked speech,
يَسْحَقُونَ شَعْبَكَ يَارَبُّ، وَيُذِلُّونَ مِيرَاثَكَ. | ٥ 5 |
crushing your people, Lord, and afflicting your heritage,
يَقْتُلُونَ ٱلْأَرْمَلَةَ وَٱلْغَرِيبَ، وَيُمِيتُونَ ٱلْيَتِيمَ. | ٦ 6 |
murdering widows and strangers, slaying the fatherless?
وَيَقُولُونَ: «ٱلرَّبُّ لَا يُبْصِرُ، وَإِلَهُ يَعْقُوبَ لَا يُلَاحِظُ». | ٧ 7 |
They think that the Lord does not see, nor the God of Jacob regard it.
اِفْهَمُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْبُلَدَاءُ فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَيَا جُهَلَاءُ مَتَى تَعْقِلُونَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
Take heed, you dullest of people; when will you be wise, you fools?
ٱلْغَارِسُ ٱلْأُذُنِ أَلَا يَسْمَعُ؟ ٱلصَّانِعُ ٱلْعَيْنَ أَلَا يُبْصِرُ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Is he deaf, who shaped the ear? Is he blind, who fashioned the eye?
ٱلْمُؤَدِّبُ ٱلْأُمَمَ أَلَا يُبَكِّتُ؟ ٱلْمُعَلِّمُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ مَعْرِفَةً. | ١٠ 10 |
Can he who trains nations not punish them he who teaches knowledge to people?
ٱلرَّبُّ يَعْرِفُ أَفْكَارَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَنَّهَا بَاطِلَةٌ. | ١١ 11 |
The Lord knows the thoughts of people, that only a breath are they.
طُوبَى لِلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي تُؤَدِّبُهُ يَارَبُّ، وَتُعَلِّمُهُ مِنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ | ١٢ 12 |
Happy are those whom you chasten, and teach out of your law,
لِتُرِيحَهُ مِنْ أَيَّامِ ٱلشَّرِّ، حَتَّى تُحْفَرَ لِلشِّرِّيرِ حُفْرَةٌ. | ١٣ 13 |
keeping them calm in the day of misfortune, till a pit be dug for the wicked.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَا يَرْفُضُ شَعْبَهُ، وَلَا يَتْرُكُ مِيرَاثَهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
For the Lord will not leave his people, he will not forsake his inheritance.
لِأَنَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْعَدْلِ يَرْجِعُ ٱلْقَضَاءُ، وَعَلَى أَثَرِهِ كُلُّ مُسْتَقِيمِي ٱلْقُلُوبِ. | ١٥ 15 |
For the righteous shall come to their rights, and all true-hearted people shall follow them.
مَنْ يَقُومُ لِي عَلَى ٱلْمُسِيئِينَ؟ مَنْ يَقِفُ لِي ضِدَّ فَعَلَةِ ٱلْإِثْمِ؟ | ١٦ 16 |
Who will rise up for me against those who do evil? Who will stand up for me against workers of wrong?
لَوْلَا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُعِينِي، لَسَكَنَتْ نَفْسِي سَرِيعًا أَرْضَ ٱلسُّكُوتِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Were it not for the help of the Lord, I would soon have gone to the silent grave.
إِذْ قُلْتُ: «قَدْ زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي» فَرَحْمَتُكَ يَارَبُّ تَعْضُدُنِي. | ١٨ 18 |
When I thought that my foot was slipping, your kindness, Lord, held me up.
عِنْدَ كَثْرَةِ هُمُومِي فِي دَاخِلِي، تَعْزِيَاتُكَ تُلَذِّذُ نَفْسِي. | ١٩ 19 |
When with cares my heart was crowded, your comforts make me glad.
هَلْ يُعَاهِدُكَ كُرْسِيُّ ٱلْمَفَاسِدِ، ٱلْمُخْتَلِقُ إِثْمًا عَلَى فَرِيضَةٍ؟ | ٢٠ 20 |
Can corrupt justice be your ally, framing mischief by statute?
يَزْدَحِمُونَ عَلَى نَفْسِ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ، وَيَحْكُمُونَ عَلَى دَمٍ زَكِيٍّ. | ٢١ 21 |
They assail the life of the righteous, and innocent blood condemn.
فَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي صَرْحًا، وَإِلَهِي صَخْرَةَ مَلْجَإِي. | ٢٢ 22 |
But the Lord is my sure retreat, my God is the rock of my refuge.
وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ إِثْمَهُمْ، وَبِشَرِّهِمْ يُفْنِيهِمْ. يُفْنِيهِمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. | ٢٣ 23 |
He will bring back their sin upon them, for their wickedness he will destroy them; the Lord our God will destroy them.
