المَزامِير 75

١ 1 لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى لَا تُهْلِكْ. مَزْمُورٌ لآسَافَ تَسْبِيحَةٌ نَحْمَدُكَ يَا اللهُ نَحْمَدُكَ، لأَنَّ اسْمَكَ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ شَعْبِكَ الَّذِي يُخْبِرُ بِمَا صَنَعْتَ مِنْ عَجَائِبَ.

For the end, Destroy not, a Psalm of a Song for Asaph. We will give thanks to thee, O God, we will give thanks, and call upon thy name: I will declare all thy wonderful works.

٢ 2 يَقُولُ اللهُ: «أَنَا أَخْتَارُ مِيعَادِي وَبِالإِنْصَافِ أَنَا أَقْضِي.

When I shall take a set time, I will judge righteously.

٣ 3 عِنْدَمَا تَهْتَزُّ الأَرْضُ وَمَا فِيهَا مِنْ أَحْيَاءَ، أَنَا مَنْ يُوَطِّدُ أَرْكَانَهَا.

The earth is dissolved, and all that dwell in it: I have strengthened its pillars. (Pause)

٤ 4 أَقُولُ لِلْمُتَغَطْرِسِينَ: لَا تَتَفَاخَرُوا فِيمَا بَعْدُ،

I said unto the transgressors, Do not transgress; and to the sinners, Lift not up the horn.

٥ 5 وَللأَشْرَارِ: لَا تَتَشَامَخُوا بِرُؤُوسِكُمْ وَلَا تَتَكَلَّمُوا بِأَعْنَاقٍ مُتَصَلِّفَةٍ».

Lift not up your horn on high; speak not unrighteousness against God.

٦ 6 فَإِنَّ الرِّفْعَةَ لَا تَأْتِي مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَلَا مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ. وَلَا مِنَ الشِّمَالِ وَلَا مِنَ الْجَنُوبِ.

For [good comes] neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert mountains.

٧ 7 فَاللهُ هُوَ الدَّيَّانُ، يَرْفَعُ وَاحِداً وَيَخْفِضُ آخَرَ.

For God is the judge; he puts down one, and raises up another.

٨ 8 فِي يَدِ الرَّبِّ كَأْسُ خَمْرٍ مُزْبِدَةٍ مَمْزُوجَةٍ. يَصُبُّهَا فَيَشْرَبُهَا كُلُّ الأَشْرَارِ حَتَّى ثُمَالَتِهَا.

For [there is] a cup in the hand of the Lord, full of unmingled wine; and he has turned [it] from side to side, but its dregs have not been wholly poured out; all the sinners of the earth shall drink [them].

٩ 9 أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَنْ أَكُفَّ عَنِ الْحَدِيثِ عَنْ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ. أُرَنِّمُ لَهُ دَائِماً.

But I will exult for ever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

١٠ 10 يُحَطِّمُ قُوَّةَ الشِّرِّيرِ، أَمَّا قُوَّةُ الْبَارِّ فَتَعْظُمُ.

And I will break all the horns of sinners; but the horns of the righteous one shall be exalted.
