< Psalms 60 >

1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down. You have been angry. Restore us, again.
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
2 You have made the land tremble. You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.
زَلْزَلْتَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، فَصَمْتَهَا. ٱجْبُرْ كَسْرَهَا لِأَنَّهَا مُتَزَعْزِعَةٌ!٢
3 You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.
أَرَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ عُسْرًا. سَقَيْتَنَا خَمْرَ ٱلتَّرَنُّحِ.٣
4 You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
أَعْطَيْتَ خَائِفِيكَ رَايَةً تُرْفَعُ لِأَجْلِ ٱلْحَقِّ. سِلَاهْ.٤
5 So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
لِكَيْ يَنْجُوَ أَحِبَّاؤُكَ. خَلِّصْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَٱسْتَجِبْ لِي!٥
6 God has spoken from his sanctuary: “I will triumph. I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
ٱللهُ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ بِقُدْسِهِ: «أَبْتَهِجُ، أَقْسِمُ شَكِيمَ، وَأَقِيسُ وَادِيَ سُكُّوتَ.٦
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.
لِي جِلْعَادُ وَلِي مَنَسَّى، وَأَفْرَايِمُ خُوذَةُ رَأْسِي، يَهُوذَا صَوْلَجَانِي.٧
8 Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my sandal on Edom. I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
مُوآبُ مِرْحَضَتِي. عَلَى أَدُومَ أَطْرَحُ نَعْلِي. يَا فَلَسْطِينُ ٱهْتِفِي عَلَيَّ».٨
9 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?
مَنْ يَقُودُنِي إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةِ؟ مَنْ يَهْدِينِي إِلَى أَدُومَ؟٩
10 Haven’t you, God, rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
أَلَيْسَ أَنْتَ يَا ٱللهُ ٱلَّذِي رَفَضْتَنَا، وَلَا تَخْرُجُ يَا ٱللهُ مَعَ جُيُوشِنَا؟١٠
11 Give us help against the adversary, for the help of man is vain.
أَعْطِنَا عَوْنًا فِي ٱلضِّيقِ، فَبَاطِلٌ هُوَ خَلَاصُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ.١١
12 Through God we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
بِٱللهِ نَصْنَعُ بِبَأْسٍ، وَهُوَ يَدُوسُ أَعْدَاءَنَا.١٢
