< Psalms 94 >

1 O God of vengeances, Jehovah, God of vengeances, shine forth;
يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ إِلَهُ الانْتِقَامِ، فَتَجَلَّ بِغَضَبِكَ.١
2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth, render the reward to the proud.
قُمْ يَا دَيَّانَ الأَرْضِ وَجَازِ الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ عَلَى أَعْمَالِهِمْ.٢
3 How long shall the wicked, O Jehovah, how long shall the wicked triumph?
إِلَى مَتَى يَا رَبُّ يَشْمَتُ الأَشْرَارُ فَرِحِينَ؟٣
4 [How long] shall they utter [and] speak insolence — all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
إِلَى مَتَى يَهْذِرُ عُمَّالُ الإِثْمِ وَيَتَوَاقَحُونَ وَيَتَبَاهَوْنَ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ؟٤
5 They crush thy people, O Jehovah, and afflict thine inheritance;
يَسْحَقُونَ شَعْبَكَ يَا رَبُّ وَيَضْطَهِدُونَهُ،٥
6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless,
يَقْتُلُونَ الأَرْمَلَةَ وَالْغَرِيبَ وَيَذْبَحُونَ الْيَتِيمَ.٦
7 And say, Jah will not see, neither will the God of Jacob regard [it].
وَيَقُولُونَ: «الرَّبُّ لَا يَرَى هَذَا، وَإِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا يُبَالِي».٧
8 Understand, ye brutish among the people; and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
افْهَمُوا يَا أَغْبِيَاءَ الشَّعْبِ! يَا جُهَّالُ مَتَى تَتَعَقَّلُونَ؟٨
9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?
صَانِعُ الأُذُنِ أَلَا يَسْمَعُ؟ جَابِلُ الْعَيْنِ أَلَا يُبْصِرُ؟٩
10 He that instructeth the nations, shall not he correct — he that teacheth man knowledge?
مُؤَدِّبُ الأُمَمِ أَلَا يَزْجُرُ وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُعَلِّمُ الإِنْسَانَ الْحِكْمَةَ؟١٠
11 Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
الرَّبُّ يَعْلَمُ أَفْكَارَ الإِنْسَانِ وَيَعْرِفُ أَنَّهَا بَاطِلَةٌ.١١
12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jah, and whom thou teachest out of thy law;
طُوبَى لِلإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي تُؤَدِّبُهُ، وَتُعَلِّمُهُ مِنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ يَا رَبُّ!١٢
13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of evil, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
لِتُرِيحَهُ مِنْ أَيَّامِ السُّوءِ، إِلَى أَنْ يَمُوتَ الشِّرِّيرُ وَيَتَوَارَى فِي مَثْواهُ.١٣
14 For Jehovah will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance;
لَا يَرْفُضُ اللهُ شَعْبَهُ، وَلَا يَنْبِذُ خَاصَّتَهُ.١٤
15 For judgment shall return unto righteousness, and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
لأَنَّ القَضَاءَ يُصْبِحُ عَدْلاً وَيُحِبُّهُ جَمِيعُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِي الْقُلُوبِ.١٥
16 Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? who will stand for me against the workers of iniquity?
مَنْ يَتَوَلَّى عَنِّي مُحَارَبَةَ الأَشْرَارِ؟ مَنْ يُجَابِهُ عَنِّي فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ؟١٦
17 If Jehovah had not been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الرَّبُّ مُعِينِي لَسَكَنَتْ نَفْسِي الْقَبْرَ.١٧
18 When I said, My foot slippeth, thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, held me up.
قُلْتُ: قَدْ زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي. وَلَكِنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ يَا رَبُّ صَارَتْ لِي سَنَداً.١٨
19 In the multitude of my anxious thoughts within me thy comforts have delighted my soul.
عِنْدَ كَثْرَةِ هُمُومِي فِي دَاخِلِي تَبْتَهِجُ نَفْسِي بِتَعْزِيَاتِكَ.١٩
20 Shall the throne of wickedness be united to thee, which frameth mischief into a law?
أَيُحَالِفُكَ مَلِكُ الشَّرِّ الْمُخْتَلِقُ إثْماً لِيَجْعَلَ الظُّلْمَ شَرِيعَةً لِلْقَضَاءِ؟٢٠
21 They band together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood.
يَجْتَمِعُونَ مَعاً لِلْقَضَاءِ عَلَى حَيَاةِ الصِّدِّيقِ، وَيَحْكُمُونَ عَلَى الْبَرِيءِ بِالْمَوْتِ.٢١
22 But Jehovah will be my high tower; and my God the rock of my refuge.
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ حِصْنِي الْمَنِيعُ؛ إِلَهِي هُوَ الصَّخْرَةُ الَّتِي بِها أَحْتَمِي.٢٢
23 And he will bring upon them their iniquity, and will cut them off in their own evil: Jehovah our God will cut them off.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا يُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ، وَيُبِيدُهُمْ بِشَرِّهِمْ.٢٣
