< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 44 >
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. قَصِيدَةٌ اَللَّهُمَّ، بِآذَانِنَا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا. آبَاؤُنَا أَخْبَرُونَا بِعَمَلٍ عَمِلْتَهُ فِي أَيَّامِهِمْ، فِي أَيَّامِ ٱلْقِدَمِ. | ١ 1 |
For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, Our fathers have told us, What work thou didst in their days, In the days of old.
أَنْتَ بِيَدِكَ ٱسْتَأْصَلْتَ ٱلْأُمَمَ وَغَرَسْتَهُمْ. حَطَّمْتَ شُعُوبًا وَمَدَدْتَهُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
Thou didst drive out the nations with thy hand; But them thou didst plant: Thou didst afflict the peoples; But them thou didst spread abroad.
لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِسَيْفِهِمْ ٱمْتَلَكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَلَا ذِرَاعُهُمْ خَلَّصَتْهُمْ، لَكِنْ يَمِينُكَ وَذِرَاعُكَ وَنُورُ وَجْهِكَ، لِأَنَّكَ رَضِيتَ عَنْهُمْ. | ٣ 3 |
For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.
أَنْتَ هُوَ مَلِكِي يَا ٱللهُ، فَأْمُرْ بِخَلَاصِ يَعْقُوبَ. | ٤ 4 |
Thou art my King, O God: Command deliverance for Jacob.
بِكَ نَنْطَحُ مُضَايِقِينَا. بِٱسْمِكَ نَدُوسُ ٱلْقَائِمِينَ عَلَيْنَا. | ٥ 5 |
Through thee will we push down our adversaries: Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
لِأَنِّي عَلَى قَوْسِي لَا أَتَّكِلُ، وَسَيْفِي لَا يُخَلِّصُنِي. | ٦ 6 |
For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my sword save me.
لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ خَلَّصْتَنَا مِنْ مُضَايِقِينَا، وَأَخْزَيْتَ مُبْغِضِينَا. | ٧ 7 |
But thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And hast put them to shame that hate us.
بِٱللهِ نَفْتَخِرُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَٱسْمَكَ نَحْمَدُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. سِلَاهْ. | ٨ 8 |
In God have we made our boast all the day long, And we will give thanks unto thy name for ever. (Selah)
لَكِنَّكَ قَدْ رَفَضْتَنَا وَأَخْجَلْتَنَا، وَلَا تَخْرُجُ مَعَ جُنُودِنَا. | ٩ 9 |
But now thou hast cast [us] off, and brought us to dishonor, And goest not forth with our hosts.
تُرْجِعُنَا إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ عَنِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ، وَمُبْغِضُونَا نَهَبُوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
Thou makest us to turn back from the adversary; And they that hate us take spoil for themselves.
جَعَلْتَنَا كَٱلضَّأْنِ أُكْلًا. ذَرَّيْتَنَا بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ١١ 11 |
Thou hast made us like sheep [appointed] for food, And hast scattered us among the nations.
بِعْتَ شَعْبَكَ بِغَيْرِ مَالٍ، وَمَا رَبِحْتَ بِثَمَنِهِمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
Thou sellest thy people for nought, And hast not increased [thy wealth] by their price.
تَجْعَلُنَا عَارًا عِنْدَ جِيرَانِنَا، هُزْأَةً وَسُخْرَةً لِلَّذِينَ حَوْلَنَا. | ١٣ 13 |
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us.
تَجْعَلُنَا مَثَلًا بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. لِإِنْغَاضِ ٱلرَّأْسِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Thou makest us a byword among the nations, A shaking of the head among the peoples.
ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ خَجَلِي أَمَامِي، وَخِزْيُ وَجْهِي قَدْ غَطَّانِي. | ١٥ 15 |
All the day long is my dishonor before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me,
مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلْمُعَيِّرِ وَٱلشَّاتِمِ. مِنْ وَجْهِ عَدُوٍّ وَمُنْتَقِمٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth, By reason of the enemy and the avenger.
هَذَا كُلُّهُ جَاءَ عَلَيْنَا، وَمَا نَسِينَاكَ وَلَا خُنَّا فِي عَهْدِكَ. | ١٧ 17 |
All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, Neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ قَلْبُنَا إِلَى وَرَاءٍ، وَلَا مَالَتْ خَطْوَتُنَا عَنْ طَرِيقِكَ، | ١٨ 18 |
Our heart is not turned back, Neither have our steps declined from thy way,
حَتَّى سَحَقْتَنَا فِي مَكَانِ ٱلتَّنَانِينِ، وَغَطَّيْتَنَا بِظِلِّ ٱلْمَوْتِ. | ١٩ 19 |
That thou hast sore broken us in the place of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death.
إِنْ نَسِينَا ٱسْمَ إِلَهِنَا أَوْ بَسَطْنَا أَيْدِيَنَا إِلَى إِلَهٍ غَرِيبٍ، | ٢٠ 20 |
If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
أَفَلَا يَفْحَصُ ٱللهُ عَنْ هَذَا؟ لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ يَعْرِفُ خَفِيَّاتِ ٱلْقَلْبِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Will not God search this out? For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
لِأَنَّنَا مِنْ أَجْلِكَ نُمَاتُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. قَدْ حُسِبْنَا مِثْلَ غَنَمٍ لِلذَّبْحِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
اِسْتَيْقِظْ! لِمَاذَا تَتَغَافَى يَارَبُّ؟ ٱنْتَبِهْ! لَا تَرْفُضْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, cast [us] not off for ever.
لِمَاذَا تَحْجُبُ وَجْهَكَ وَتَنْسَى مَذَلَّتَنَا وَضِيقَنَا؟ | ٢٤ 24 |
Wherefore hidest thou thy face, And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
لِأَنَّ أَنْفُسَنَا مُنْحَنِيَةٌ إِلَى ٱلتُّرَابِ. لَصِقَتْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ بُطُونُنَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
For our soul is bowed down to the dust: Our body cleaveth unto the earth.
قُمْ عَوْنًا لَنَا وَٱفْدِنَا مِنْ أَجْلِ رَحْمَتِكَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Rise up for our help, And redeem us for thy lovingkindness’ sake.
