المَزامِير 77

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

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph. I cried to God with my voice, even to God with my voice; and he gave 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 sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

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

I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. (Selah)

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

Thou holdest my eyes waking: 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 made diligent search.

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

Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

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

Is his mercy wholly gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

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

Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath 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: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.

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

I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.

١٢ 12 وَأَتَأَمَّلُ جَمِيعَ أَفْعَالِكَ وَأُنَاجِي بِكُلِّ مَا صَنَعْتَهُ.

I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of 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 so great a God as our God?

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

Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.

١٥ 15 بِذِرَاعِكَ القَدِيرَةِ افْتَدَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ وَيُوسُفَ.

Thou hast with thy arm 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 were troubled.

١٧ 17 سَكَبَتِ الْغُيُومُ مَاءً وَأَرْعَدَتِ السُّحُبُ، وَتَطَايَرَتْ سِهَامُكَ.

The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thy 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 heaven: 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 is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.

٢٠ 20 هَدَيْتَ شَعْبَكَ كَقَطِيعٍ عَلَى يَدِ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ.

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