Psalms 74
1 Understanding for Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast us off unto the end: why is thy wrath enkindled against the sheep of thy pasture?
| مَزْمُورٌ تَعْلِيمِيٌّ لآسَافَ يَا اللهُ لِمَاذَا نَبَذْتَنَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ؟ لِمَاذَا ثَارَ غَضَبُكَ الشَّدِيدُ عَلَى غَنَمِ مَرْعَاكَ؟ | ١ |
2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast possessed from the beginning. The sceptre of thy inheritance which thou hast redeemed: mount Sion in which thou hast dwelt.
| اذْكُرْ جَمَاعَتَكَ الَّتِي اقْتَنَيْتَهَا مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، وَالَّتِي افْتَدَيْتَهَا لِتَجْعَلَهَا سِبْطَ مِيرَاثِكَ. اذْكُرْ جَبَلَ صِهْيَوْنَ الَّذِي أَقَمْتَ فِيهِ. | ٢ |
3 Lift up thy hands against their pride unto the end; see what things the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
| سِرْ يَا رَبُّ مُسْرِعاً وَسَطَ هَذِهِ الْخَرَائِبِ الدَّائِمَةِ، فَإِنَّ الْعَدُوَّ قَدْ دَمَّرَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ فِي بَيْتِكَ الْمُقَدَّسِ. | ٣ |
4 And they that hate thee have made their boasts, in the midst of thy solemnity. They have set up their ensigns for signs,
| إِنَّ خُصُومَكَ يُزَمْجِرُونَ فِي وَسَطِ مَحْفَلِكَ، وَيَنْصِبُونَ أَصْنَامَهُمْ شَارَاتٍ لِلنَّصْرِ. | ٤ |
5 And they knew not both in the going out and on the highest top. As with axes in a wood of trees,
| يَظْهَرُ الْعَدُوُّ كَأَنَّهُ يَهْوِي بِالْفُؤُوسِ عَلَى الأَشْجَارِ الْكَثِيفَةِ. | ٥ |
6 They have cut down at once the gates thereof, with axe and hatchet they have brought it down.
| هَدَمُوا مَنْقُوشَاتِهِ كُلَّهَا بِالْمَطَارِقِ وَالْمَعَاوِلِ. | ٦ |
7 They have set fire to thy sanctuary: they have defiled the dwelling place of thy name on the earth.
| أَضْرَمُوا النَّارَ فِي مَقْدِسِكَ، وَدَنَّسُوهُ إِذْ قَوَّضُوا مَقَرَّ اسْمِكَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٧ |
8 They said in their heart, the whole kindred of them together: Let us abolish all the festival days of God from the land.
| قَالُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ: لِنُبِدْهُمْ جَمِيعاً. وَأَحْرَقُوا كُلَّ مَحَافِلِ اللهِ فِي الْبِلادِ. | ٨ |
9 Our signs we have not seen, there is now no prophet: and he will know us no more.
| لَمْ نَعُدْ نَشْهَدُ رُمُوزَ عِبَادَتِنَا، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدُ، وَلَيْسَ بَيْنَنَا مَنْ يَعْرِفُ مَتَى تَكُونُ خَاتِمَةُ الأَمْرِ. | ٩ |
10 How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach: is the adversary to provoke thy name for ever?
| يَا اللهُ: إِلَى مَتَى يُعَيِّرُنَا الْخَصْمُ؟ أَيَظَلُّ الْعَدُوُّ يَسْتَهِينُ بِاسْمِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ؟ | ١٠ |
11 Why dost thou turn away thy hand: and thy right hand out of the midst of thy bosom for ever?
| لِمَاذَا تَرْفُضُ أَنْ تَمُدَّ يَدَ الْعَوْنِ؟ لِمَاذَا تُبْقِي يَمِينَكَ خَلْفَكَ؟ أَخْرِجْهَا وَأَفْنِهِمْ. | ١١ |
12 But God is our king before ages: he hath wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.
| إِنَّمَا اللهُ مَلِكِي مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ، صَانِعُ الْخَلاصِ فِي وَسَطِ الأَرْضِ. | ١٢ |
13 Thou by thy strength didst make the sea firm: thou didst crush the heads of the dragons in the waters.
| أَنْتَ فَلَقْتَ الْبَحْرَ بِقُوَّتِكَ وَحَطَّمْتَ رُؤُوسَ التَّنَانِينِ. | ١٣ |
14 Thou hast broken the heads of the dragon: thou hast given him to be meat for the people of the Ethiopians.
| أَنْتَ مَزَّقْتَ رُؤُوسَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَيْشِهِ، وَجَعَلْتَهُ قُوتاً لِلْحَيَوَانَاتِ الْمُتَوَحِّشَةِ | ١٤ |
15 Thou hast broken up the fountains and the torrents: thou hast dried up the Ethan rivers.
| فَجَّرْتَ نَبْعاً وَجَدْوَلاً، وَجَفَّفْتَ أَنْهَاراً دَائِمَةَ الْجَرَيَانِ. | ١٥ |
16 Thine is the day, and thine is the night: thou hast made the morning light and the sun.
| لَكَ النَّهَارُ وَاللَّيْلُ أَيْضاً. أَنْتَ كَوَّنْتَ الْكَوَاكِبَ الْمُنِيرَةَ وَالشَّمْسَ. | ١٦ |
17 Thou hast made all the borders of the earth: the summer and the spring were formed by thee.
| نَصَبْتَ حُدُودَ الأَرْضِ، وَخَلَقْتَ الصَّيْفَ وَالشِّتَاءَ. | ١٧ |
18 Remember this, the enemy hath reproached the Lord: and a foolish people hath provoked thy name.
| إِنَّمَا اذْكُرْ أَنَّ عَدُوّاً قَدْ عَيَّرَ الرَّبَّ، وَشَعْباً جَاهِلاً قَدِ اسْتَهَانَ بِاسْمِكَ. | ١٨ |
19 Deliver not up to beasts the souls that confess to thee: and forget not to the end the souls of thy poor.
| لَا تُسَلِّمْ لِلْوَحْشِ نَفْسَ شَعْبِكَ الضَّعِيفِ، وَلَا تَنْسَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ حَيَاةَ جُمْهُورِكَ الْمُضْطَهَدِ. | ١٩ |
20 Have regard to thy covenant: for they that are the obscure of the earth have been filled with dwellings of iniquity.
| اذْكُرِ الْعَهْدَ الَّذِي قَطَعْتَهُ لَنَا، فَإِنَّ الظُّلْمَ كَامِنٌ فِي كُلِّ رُكْنٍ مُظْلِمٍ مِنَ الأَرْضِ. | ٢٠ |
21 Let not the humble be turned away with confusion: the poor and needy shall praise thy name.
| لَا تَدَعِ الْمُنْسَحِقَ يَرْجِعُ بِالْخِزْيِ، بَلْ لِيُسَبِّحِ اسْمَكَ الْفَقِيرُ وَالْبَائِسُ. | ٢١ |
22 Arise, O God, judge thy own cause: remember thy reproaches with which the foolish man hath reproached thee all the day.
| قُمْ يَا اللهُ وَدَافِعْ عَنْ دَعْوَاكَ. اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ يُعَيِّرُكَ الْجَاهِلُ طُولَ النَّهَارِ. | ٢٢ |
23 Forget not the voices of thy enemies: the pride of them that hate thee ascendeth continually.
| لَا تَنْسَ أَصْوَاتَ خُصُومِكَ، فَإِنَّ ضَجِيجَ الثَّائِرِينَ عَلَيْكَ يَتَصَاعَدُ دَائِماً. | ٢٣ |
