< Psalms 44 >

1 God, we ourselves have heard what our parents and grandparents told us. They told us about the miracles that you performed long ago.
برای سالار مغنیان. قصیده بنی قورح ای خدا به گوشهای خود شنیده‌ایم وپدران ما، ما را خبر داده‌اند، از کاری که در روزهای ایشان و در ایام سلف کرده‌ای.۱
2 [They told us] how you expelled the ungodly people and enabled us to live in their land. [They told us] that you punished those ungodly people and enabled your own people to prosper [IDM].
تو به‌دست خود امت‌ها را بیرون کردی، اماایشان را غرس نمودی. قومها را تباه کردی، اما ایشان را منتشر ساختی.۲
3 It was not by using their own swords that they conquered the people that lived in that land, and it was not by their own power that they were victorious; it was only by your power [MTY, DOU] [that they did those things]; and they were sure that you were with them, and that showed that you were pleased with them.
زیرا که به شمشیر خود زمین را تسخیر نکردند و بازوی ایشان ایشان را نجات نداد. بلکه دست راست تو وبازو و نور روی تو. زیرا از ایشان خرسندبودی.۳
4 You are my King and my God; it is you who enable us, your people [MTY], to defeat our enemies.
‌ای خدا تو پادشاه من هستی. پس برنجات یعقوب امر فرما.۴
5 It is by your power that we knock our enemies down and tramp on them.
به مدد تو دشمنان خود راخواهیم افکند و به نام تو مخالفان خویش راپایمال خواهیم ساخت.۵
6 I do not trust that I will be saved by using my bow [and arrows] and my sword.
زیرا بر کمان خودتوکل نخواهم داشت و شمشیرم مرا خلاصی نخواهد داد.۶
7 No, it is you who have rescued us from our enemies, it is you who have caused those who hate us to become ashamed [because they were defeated].
بلکه تو ما را از دشمنان ما خلاصی دادی و مبغضان ما را خجل ساختی.۷
8 We have continually boasted about what God [has done for us], and we will thank him [MTY] forever.
تمامی روزبر خدا فخر خواهیم کرد و نام تو را تا به ابد تسبیح خواهیم خواند، سلاه.۸
9 But [now] you have rejected us and caused us to be disgraced; when our armies march out [to fight a battle], you no [longer] go with them.
لیکن الان تو ما را دورانداخته و رسوا ساخته‌ای و با لشکرهای ما بیرون نمی آیی.۹
10 You have caused us to run away from our enemies, with the result that they captured the things that belonged to us.
و ما را از پیش دشمن روگردان ساخته‌ای و خصمان ما برای خویشتن تاراج می‌کنند.۱۰
11 You have allowed us to become like [MET] sheep that were ready to be slaughtered; you scattered us [far away] among [other].
ما را مثل گوسفندان برای خوراک تسلیم کرده‌ای و ما را در میان امت‌ها پراکنده ساخته‌ای.۱۱
12 [It is as though] [MET] you sold us, your people, [to our enemies] for a very small price, and you did not gain much profit from selling us!
قوم خود را بی‌بها فروختی و ازقیمت ایشان نفع نبردی.۱۲
13 People who live in nations near us make fun of us; they laugh at us and deride/belittle us.
ما را نزد همسایگان ماعار گردانیدی. اهانت و سخریه نزد آنانی که گرداگرد مایند.۱۳
14 They make jokes using the name of [our country], they shake their heads [to indicate that they despise us].
ما را در میان امت هاضرب‌المثل ساخته‌ای. جنبانیدن سر در میان قوم‌ها.۱۴
15 All day I feel disgraced; from seeing my face, people know that I am ashamed.
و رسوایی من همه روزه در نظر من است. و خجالت رویم مرا پوشانیده است،۱۵
16 I hear what those who sneer at me and revile me say; I am ashamed in front of my enemies and those who want to harm me.
ازآواز ملامت گو و فحاش، از روی دشمن و انتقام گیرنده.۱۶
17 All these things have happened to us [even] though we have not forgotten you, and we are not the ones who disobeyed the agreement you made with [our ancestors].
این همه بر ما واقع شد. اما تو را فراموش نکردیم و در عهد تو خیانت نورزیدیم.۱۷
18 We have not stopped being loyal to you, and we have not stopped doing what you want us to do [IDM].
دل مابه عقب برنگردید و پایهای ما از طریق تو انحراف نورزید.۱۸
19 But [it is as though] you have allowed us to be helpless among wild animals, and abandoned us in a deep dark [ravine].
هرچند ما را در مکان اژدرها کوبیدی و ما را به سایه موت پوشانیدی.۱۹
20 If we had forgotten to worship [MTY] our God, or if we had spread out our hands to [worship] a foreign god,
نام خدای خود را هرگز فراموش نکردیم و دست خود را به خدای غیر برنیفراشتیم.۲۰
21 you certainly would have known that, because you know [even] what we secretly think.
آیا خدا این راغوررسی نخواهد کرد؟ زیرا او خفایای قلب رامی داند.۲۱
22 But it is because we belong to you, [that our enemies] are constantly killing us. They act toward us as though we were only sheep to be slaughtered.
هر آینه به‌خاطر تو تمامی روز کشته می‌شویم و مثل گوسفندان ذبح شمرده می‌شویم.۲۲
23 [So], Yahweh, arise! Why are you asleep [RHQ]? Get up! Do not reject us forever!
‌ای خداوند بیدار شو چراخوابیده‌ای؟ برخیز و ما را تا به ابد دور مینداز.۲۳
24 Why are you not looking at us? Why are you forgetting that we are suffering and being oppressed [by our enemies]?
چرا روی خود را پوشانیدی و ذلت و تنگی مارا فراموش کردی؟۲۴
25 We are pushed down to the ground and we cannot get up.
زیرا که جان ما به خاک خم شده است و شکم ما به زمین چسبیده.۲۵
26 Arise, and come and help us! Rescue us because you faithfully love us!
به جهت اعانت ما برخیز و بخاطر رحمانیت خود ما رافدیه ده.۲۶
