< المَزامِير 10 >

رَبُّ، لِمَاذَا تَقِفُ بَعِيداً وَتَحْتَجِبُ فِي أَزْمِنَةِ الضِّيقِ؟ ١ 1
Why, Jehovah, standest thou afar off? [Why] hidest thou thyself in times of distress?
الشِّرِّيرُ، بِعَجْرَفَةٍ، يَجِدُّ فِي تَعَقُّبِ الْمِسْكِينِ، غَيْرَ أَنَّ الأَشْرَارَ يَسْقُطُونَ فِي مُؤَامَرَتِهِمِ الَّتِي فَكَّرُوا فِيهَا. ٢ 2
The wicked, in his pride, doth hotly pursue the afflicted. They shall be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
الشِّرِّيرُ يَفْتَخِرُ بِشَهَوَاتِ نَفْسِهِ، وَالرَّجُلُ الطَّمَّاعُ يَلْعَنُ وَيُجَدِّفُ عَلَى اللهِ. ٣ 3
For the wicked boasteth of his soul's desire, and he blesseth the covetous; he contemneth Jehovah.
فِي تَكَبُّرِهِ وَتَشَامُخِهِ لَا يَلْتَمِسُ اللهَ، وَلَا مَكَانَ لِلهِ فِي أَفْكَارِهِ كُلِّهَا، ٤ 4
The wicked [saith], in the haughtiness of his countenance, He doth not search out: all his thoughts are, There is no God!
وَمَعْ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ مَسَاعِيَهُ تَبْدُو نَاجِحَةً، وَيَسْتَخِفُّ بِجَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِهِ. وَلَكِنَّ أَحْكَامَكَ عَالِيَةٌ أَسْمَى مِنْهُ ٥ 5
His ways always succeed; thy judgments are far above out of his sight; [as for] all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.
قَالَ فِي نَفْسِهِ: «لَنْ يُزَحْزِحَنِي شَيْءٌ، وَلَنْ يَنَالَنِي مَكْرُوهٌ قَطُّ». ٦ 6
He saith in his heart, I shall not be moved; from generation to generation I shall be in no adversity.
فَمُهُ مَمْلُوءٌ لَعْنَةً وَغِشّاً وَظُلْماً. تَحْتَ لِسَانِهِ الأَذَى وَالإِثْمُ. ٧ 7
His mouth is full of cursing, and deceit, and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
يَتَرَبَّصُ فِي كَمَائِنِ الدِّيَارِ لِيَقْتُلَ الْبَرِيءَ. عَيْنَاهُ تَتَرَصَّدَانِ الْمِسْكِينَ. ٨ 8
He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in the secret places doth he slay the innocent: his eyes watch for the wretched.
يَكْمُنُ فِي الْخَفَاءِ، كَأَسَدٍ فِي عَرِينِهِ لِيَخْطِفَ الْمِسْكِينَ وَيَجُرَّهُ فِي شَبَكَتِهِ. ٩ 9
He lieth in wait secretly, like a lion in his thicket; he lieth in wait to catch the afflicted: he doth catch the afflicted, drawing him into his net.
يَسْحَقُ الْمَسَاكِينَ وَيَدُوسُهُمْ حِينَ يَسْقُطُونَ بَيْنَ مَخَالِبِهِ الْقَوِيَّةِ. ١٠ 10
He croucheth, he boweth down, that the wretched may fall by his strong ones.
يَقُولُ فِي قَلْبِهِ: اللهُ غَافِلٌ. قَدْ حَجَبَ وَجْهَهُ، وَلَنْ يَرَى مَا يَجْرِي ١١ 11
He saith in his heart, God hath forgotten, he hideth his face, he will never see [it].
قُمْ يَا رَبُّ، ارْفَعْ يَدَكَ يَا اللهُ، لَا تَنْسَ الْمَسَاكِينَ. ١٢ 12
Arise, Jehovah; O God, lift up thy hand: forget not the afflicted.
لِمَاذَا يَسْتَهِينُ الشِّرِّيرُ بِاللهِ قَائِلاً فِي قَلْبِهِ: إِنَّكَ لَا تُحَاسِبُهُ؟ ١٣ 13
Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require [it].
وَلَكِنَّكَ قَدْ رَأَيْتَ. عَايَنْتَ مَا أَصَابَ الْمَسَاكِينَ مِنَ الْمَشَقَّةِ وَالْغَمِّ، فَتُجَازِي الشِّرِّيرَ بِيَدِكَ. يُسَلِّمُ إِلَيْكَ الْمِسْكِينُ أَمْرَهُ، فَأَنْتَ دَائِماً مُعِينُ الْيَتِيمِ. ١٤ 14
Thou hast seen [it], for thou thyself beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite by thy hand. The wretched committeth himself unto thee; thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.
حَطِّمْ ذِرَاعَ الشِّرِّيرِ وَالْفَاجِرِ. حَاسِبْهُ عَلَى شَرِّهِ، حَتَّى لَا تَجِدَهُ. ١٥ 15
Break thou the arm of the wicked, and as for the evil man, seek out his wickedness [till] thou find none.
الرَّبُّ مَلِكٌ إِلَى أَبَدِ الدُّهُورِ، قَدْ بَادَتْ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ الأُمَمُ (الَّتِي تَعْبُدُ آلِهَةً سِوَاهُ) ١٦ 16
Jehovah is King for ever and ever: the nations have perished out of his land.
أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ تَسْتَجِيبُ طِلْبَةَ الْوُدَعَاءِ، تُشَدِّدُ قُلُوبَهُمْ إِذْ تُصْغِي (إِلَى تَأَوُّهَاتِهِمْ). ١٧ 17
Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek, thou hast established their heart: thou causest thine ear to hear,
تُنْصِفُ الْيَتِيمَ وَالْمَقْهُورَ، فَلَا يَعُودُ إِنْسَانٌ فِي الأَرْضِ يُرْعِبُهُمْ. ١٨ 18
To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed one, that the man of the earth may terrify no more.
