المَزامِير 77

١ 1 لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى يَدُوثُونَ. لآسَافَ. مَزْمُورٌ إِلَى اللهِ أَرْفَعُ صَوْتِي، إِلَى اللهِ أَصْرُخُ فَيُصْغِي إِلَيَّ.

I will cry to God with my voice, even to God with my voice, and he will give ear to me.

٢ 2 فِي يَوْمِ ضِيقِي طَلَبْتُ الرَّبَّ. انْبَسَطَتْ يَدِي طُولَ اللَّيْلِ فَلَمْ تَكِلَّ. أَبَتْ نَفْسِي الْعَزَاءَ.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not. My soul refused to be comforted.

٣ 3 أَذْكُرُ الرَّبَّ فَأَتَنَهَّدُ، أُنَاجِي نَفْسِي فَيُغْشَى عَلَى رُوحِي.

I remember God, and am disquieted. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)

٤ 4 أَمْسَكْتَ أَجْفَانِي عَنِ النَّوْمِ. اعْتَرَانِي الْقَلَقُ فَعَجَزْتُ عَنِ الْكَلامِ.

Thou have held my eyelids watching. I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

٥ 5 فَكَّرْتُ فِي الأَيَّامِ الْقَدِيمَةِ وَفِي السِّنِينَ السَّحِيقَةِ.

I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

٦ 6 فِي اللَّيْلِ أَتَذَكَّرُ تَرْنِيمِي، وَأُنَاجِي قَلْبِي، وَتَجِدُّ فِي الْبَحْثِ نَفْسِي.

I call to remembrance my song in the night. I commune with my own heart, and my spirit makes diligent search.

٧ 7 هَلْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ يَرْفُضُنَا الرَّبُّ وَلَا يَرْضَى عَنَّا أَبَداً؟

Will the Lord cast off forever? And will he be favorable no more?

٨ 8 هَلِ انْتَهَتْ رَحْمَتُهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ؟ هَلِ انْقَطَعَتْ عَنَّا مَوَاعِيدُهُ؟

Has his loving kindness entirely gone forever? Does his promise fail for evermore?

٩ 9 أَلَعَلَّ اللهَ نَسِيَ رَأْفَتَهُ؟ أَمْ حَبَسَ بِغَضَبٍ مَرَاحِمَهُ؟

Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)

١٠ 10 ثُمَّ قُلْتُ: «هَذَا يُسْقِمُنِي: أَنَّ يَمِينَ اللهِ الْعَلِيِّ قَدْ تَحَوَّلَتْ (عَنَّا).»

And I said, This is my infirmity, the change of the right hand of the Most High.

١١ 11 أَذْكُرُ أَعْمَالَكَ يَا رَبُّ. أَذْكُرُ عَجَائِبَكَ الَّتِي عَمِلْتَهَا فِي الْقَدِيمِ،

I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah, for I will remember thy wonders of old.

١٢ 12 وَأَتَأَمَّلُ جَمِيعَ أَفْعَالِكَ وَأُنَاجِي بِكُلِّ مَا صَنَعْتَهُ.

I will meditate also upon all thy work, and muse on thy doings.

١٣ 13 يَا اللهُ، إِنَّ طَرِيقَكَ هِيَ الْقَدَاسَةُ، فَأَيُّ إِلَهٍ عَظِيمٌ مِثْلُ اللهِ؟

Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary. Who is a great god like God?

١٤ 14 أَنْتَ الإِلَهُ الصَّانِعُ الْعَجَائِبَ، وَقَدْ أَعْلَنْتَ قُوَّتَكَ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ.

Thou are the God who does wonders. Thou have made known thy strength among the peoples.

١٥ 15 بِذِرَاعِكَ القَدِيرَةِ افْتَدَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ وَيُوسُفَ.

With thine arm thou have redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

١٦ 16 رَأَتْكَ الْمِيَاهُ يَا اللهُ فَارْتَجَفَتْ وَاضْطَرَبَتْ أَعْمَاقُهَا أَيْضاً.

The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee. They were afraid. The depths also trembled.

١٧ 17 سَكَبَتِ الْغُيُومُ مَاءً وَأَرْعَدَتِ السُّحُبُ، وَتَطَايَرَتْ سِهَامُكَ.

The clouds poured out water. The skies sent out a sound. Thine arrows also went abroad.

١٨ 18 (زَأَرَ) صَوْتُ رَعْدِكَ فِي الزَّوْبَعَةِ، فَأَضَاءَتِ الْبُرُوقُ الْمَسْكُونَةَ، وَارْتَعَدَتِ الأَرْضُ وَاهْتَزَّتْ.

The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lightened the world. The earth trembled and shook.

١٩ 19 إِنَّمَا فِي الْبَحْرِ طَرِيقُكَ، وَمَسَالِكُكَ فِي الْمِيَاهِ الْغَامِرَةِ، وَآثَارُ خُطْوَاتِكَ لَا تُتَقَصَّى.

Thy way was in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters. And thy footsteps were not known.

٢٠ 20 هَدَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ كَقَطِيعٍ عَلَى يَدِ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ.

Thou led thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
