< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 58 >
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. عَلَى «لَا تُهْلِكْ». لِدَاوُدَ. مُذَهَّبَةٌ أَحَقًّا بِٱلْحَقِّ ٱلْأَخْرَسِ تَتَكَلَّمُونَ، بِٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَاتِ تَقْضُونَ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ؟ | ١ 1 |
For the leader. Al tashheth. Of David. A michtam. Do you speak what is right, you gods? With equity judge you your people?
بَلْ بِٱلْقَلْبِ تَعْمَلُونَ شُرُورًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ظُلْمَ أَيْدِيكُمْ تَزِنُونَ. | ٢ 2 |
In the land you practise iniquity – all of you; violence do you dispense with your hands.
زَاغَ ٱلْأَشْرَارُ مِنَ ٱلرَّحِمِ. ضَلُّوا مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، مُتَكَلِّمِينَ كَذِبًا. | ٣ 3 |
The wicked go astray from the womb liars take the wrong path from their birth.
لَهُمْ حُمَةٌ مِثْلُ حُمَةِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ. مِثْلُ ٱلصِّلِّ ٱلْأَصَمِّ يَسُدُّ أُذُنَهُ، | ٤ 4 |
Venom have they like the venom of snakes, they are like the deaf adder that stops her ears,
ٱلَّذِي لَا يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَى صَوْتِ ٱلْحُوَاةِ ٱلرَّاقِينَ رُقَى حَكِيمٍ. | ٥ 5 |
and refuses to listen to the voice of the charmer, or binder of spells, no matter how cunning.
اَللَّهُمَّ، كَسِّرْ أَسْنَانَهُمْ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمِ. ٱهْشِمْ أَضْرَاسَ ٱلْأَشْبَالِ يَارَبُّ. | ٦ 6 |
O God, break to pieces the teeth in their mouth, tear out the great teeth of the young lions, Lord.
لِيَذُوبُوا كَٱلْمَاءِ، لِيَذْهَبُوا. إِذَا فَوَّقَ سِهَامَهُ فَلْتَنْبُ. | ٧ 7 |
May they melt away like running water! Like tender grass, cut down may they be!
كَمَا يَذُوبُ ٱلْحَلَزُونُ مَاشِيًا. مِثْلَ سِقْطِ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ لَا يُعَايِنُوا ٱلشَّمْسَ. | ٨ 8 |
Like the snail that dissolves on its crawling path, like the birth untimely which sees not the sunlight.
قَبْلَ أَنْ تَشْعُرَ قُدُورُكُمْ بِٱلشَّوْكِ، نِيئًا أَوْ مَحْرُوقًا، يَجْرُفُهُمْ. | ٩ 9 |
Faster than a thorn-fire heats your pots, he will come with his tempest and sweep them away.
يَفْرَحُ ٱلصِّدِّيقُ إِذَا رَأَى ٱلنَّقْمَةَ. يَغْسِلُ خُطُواتِهِ بِدَمِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ. | ١٠ 10 |
The sight of such vengeance will gladden the righteous; their feet they will wash in the blood of the wicked.
وَيَقُولُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ: «إِنَّ لِلصِّدِّيقِ ثَمَرًا. إِنَّهُ يُوجَدُ إِلَهٌ قَاضٍ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ» | ١١ 11 |
People will say, ‘Yes, the just are rewarded: yes, on the earth is a God who is Judge.’
