اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 80

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ٱلسُّوسَنِّ». شَهَادَةٌ. لِآسَافَ. مَزْمُورٌ يَا رَاعِيَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱصْغَ، يَا قَائِدَ يُوسُفَ كَٱلضَّأْنِ، يَا جَالِسًا عَلَى ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ أَشْرِقْ.

For the music director. A psalm of Asaph. To the tune “Lilies of the Covenant.” Please hear us, Shepherd of Israel, you who lead the descendants of Joseph like a flock. You who sit on your throne above the cherubim, shine out

٢ 2 قُدَّامَ أَفْرَايِمَ وَبِنْيَامِينَ وَمَنَسَّى أَيْقِظْ جَبَرُوتَكَ، وَهَلُمَّ لِخَلَاصِنَا.

in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Gather together your power and come to save us!

٣ 3 يَا ٱللهُ أَرْجِعْنَا، وَأَنِرْ بِوَجْهِكَ فَنَخْلُصَ.

God, please restore us! Let your face shine on us so we can be saved.

٤ 4 يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ، إِلَى مَتَى تُدَخِّنُ عَلَى صَلَاةِ شَعْبِكَ؟

Lord God Almighty, how long will you be angry with the prayers of your people?

٥ 5 قَدْ أَطْعَمْتَهُمْ خُبْزَ ٱلدُّمُوعِ، وَسَقَيْتَهُمُ ٱلدُّمُوعَ بِٱلْكَيْلِ.

You fed them with the bread of tears, and gave them a full bowl of tears to drink.

٦ 6 جَعَلْتَنَا نِزَاعًا عِنْدَ جِيرَانِنَا، وَأَعْدَاؤُنَا يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ بَيْنَ أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

You turn us into victims our neighbors fight over; our enemies mock us.

٧ 7 يَا إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ أَرْجِعْنَا، وَأَنِرْ بِوَجْهِكَ فَنَخْلُصَ.

God Almighty, please restore us! Let your face shine on us so we can be saved!

٨ 8 كَرْمَةً مِنْ مِصْرَ نَقَلْتَ. طَرَدْتَ أُمَمًا وَغَرَسْتَهَا.

You carried us out of Egypt like a vine. You drove out the heathen nations, and then you planted the vine.

٩ 9 هَيَّأْتَ قُدَّامَهَا فَأَصَّلَتْ أُصُولَهَا فَمَلَأَتِ ٱلْأَرْضَ.

You prepared the ground for the vine. It took root and filled the land.

١٠ 10 غَطَّى ٱلْجِبَالَ ظِلُّهَا، وَأَغْصَانُهَا أَرْزَ ٱللهِ.

The mountains were covered by its shade; its branches covered the great cedars.

١١ 11 مَدَّتْ قُضْبَانَهَا إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَإِلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ فُرُوعَهَا.

It sent its branches as far west as the Mediterranean Sea, and its shoots as far east as the Euphrates River.

١٢ 12 فَلِمَاذَا هَدَمْتَ جُدْرَانَهَا فَيَقْطِفَهَا كُلُّ عَابِرِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ؟

So why have you broken down the walls that protect it so that everyone who passes by can steal its fruit?

١٣ 13 يُفْسِدُهَا ٱلْخِنْزِيرُ مِنَ ٱلْوَعْرِ، وَيَرْعَاهَا وَحْشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ.

Wild pigs from the forest eat it, wild animals feed on it.

١٤ 14 يَا إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ، ٱرْجِعَنَّ. ٱطَّلِعْ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَٱنْظُرْ وَتَعَهَّدْ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَرْمَةَ،

God Almighty, please return to us! Look down from heaven and see what's happening to us! Come and care for this vine

١٥ 15 وَٱلْغَرْسَ ٱلَّذِي غَرَسَتْهُ يَمِينُكَ، وَٱلِٱبْنَ ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَرْتَهُ لِنَفْسِكَ.

that you planted yourself, this son that you brought up yourself.

١٦ 16 هِيَ مَحْرُوقَةٌ بِنَارٍ، مَقْطُوعَةٌ. مِنِ ٱنْتِهَارِ وَجْهِكَ يَبِيدُونَ.

We, your vine, have been chopped down and burned. May those who did this die when you glare at them.

١٧ 17 لِتَكُنْ يَدُكَ عَلَى رَجُلِ يَمِينِكَ، وَعَلَى ٱبْنِ آدَمَ ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَرْتَهُ لِنَفْسِكَ،

Protect the man who stands beside you; strengthen the son you have chosen.

١٨ 18 فَلَا نَرْتَدَّ عَنْكَ. أَحْيِنَا فَنَدْعُوَ بِٱسْمِكَ.

Then we will not turn away from you. Revive us so we can pray to you.

١٩ 19 يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ، أَرْجِعْنَا. أَنِرْ بِوَجْهِكَ فَنَخْلُصَ.

Lord God Almighty, please restore us! Let your face shine on us so we can be saved.
