< Psalms 83 >

1 A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, please do not stay silent! You can't remain unmoved! God, you must not keep quiet!
تَسْبِيحَةٌ: مَزْمُورٌ لآسَافَ يَا اللهُ لَا تَصْمُتْ. لَا تَسْكُتْ وَلَا تَهْدَأْ يَا اللهُ.١
2 Can't you hear the roars of your enemies? Can't you see how those who hate you are defiantly lifting up their heads?
هُوَذا أَعْدَاؤُكَ ثَائِرُونَ، وَمُبْغِضُوكَ يَشْمَخُونَ بِرُؤُوسِهِمْ.٢
3 They invent cunning plans to conspire against your people; they plot against those you treasure.
يَتَآمَرُونَ بِالْمَكْرِ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ، وَيَكِيدُونَ لِلإِيقَاعِ بِمَنْ تَحْمِيهِمْ.٣
4 They say, “Come on! Let's destroy them as a nation so the name ‘Israel’ will be completely forgotten.”
يَقُولُونَ: «هَلُمَّ نَسْتَأْصِلُهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأُمَمِ، فَلَا يُذْكَرَ اسْمُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِيمَا بَعْدُ».٤
5 They all agree in their conspiracy; they've made a treaty together to attack you—
فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدْ تَآمَرُوا مَعاً بِقَلْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَعَقَدُوا حِلْفاً ضِدَّكَ.٥
6 the people of Edom, the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagirites;
عَشَائِرُ أَدُومَ وَبَنُو إِسْمَاعِيلَ، نَسْلُ مُوآبَ وَبَنُو هَاجَرَ.٦
7 the people of Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, and the inhabitants of Tyre.
جِبَالُ وَعَمُّونُ وَعَمَالِيقُ، الفَلَسْطِينِيُّونَ وَأَهْلُ صُورَ،٧
8 Assyria too has joined them, allied with the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
وَقَوْمُ أَشُّورَ أَيْضاً انْضَمُّوا إِلَيْهِمْ، صَارُوا عَوْناً لِبَنِي لُوطٍ.٨
9 Do to them what you did to Midian, what you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
افْعَلْ بِهِمْ كَمَا فَعَلْتَ بِمِدْيَانَ وَسِيسَرَا وَيَابِينَ فِي نَهْرِ قِيشُونَ.٩
10 They were destroyed at Endor and became like manure to fertilize the ground.
بَادُوا فِي عَيْنِ دُورٍ، وصَارُوا زِبْلاً للأَرْضِ.١٠
11 Make their leaders like Oreb and Zeeb; all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna,
اجْعَلْ مَصِيرَ أَشْرَافِهِمْ كَمَصِيرِ غُرَابٍ وَذِئْبٍ، وَجَمِيعَ أُمَرَائِهِمْ مِثْلَ زَبَحَ وَصَلْمُنَّاعَ،١١
12 for they said, “Let's take the pastures of God for ourselves!”
الَّذِينَ قَالُوا: لِنَسْتَوْلِ عَلَى مَسَاكِنِ اللهِ.١٢
13 My God, make them like whirling tumbleweeds, chaff blown away by the wind.
يَا إِلَهِي، بَدِّدْهُمْ كَالْقَشِّ الْمُتَطَايِرِ، وَكَالتِّبْنِ فِي مَهَبِّ الرِّيحِ.١٣
14 Just like fire that burns the forest, a flame that sets fire to the mountains,
كَمَا تَحْرِقُ النَّارُ الْغَابَةَ، وَكَمَا يُشْعِلُ لَهِيبُهَا الْجِبَالَ،١٤
15 in the same way chase them down with your storm, terrify them with your whirlwind.
هَكَذَا طَارِدْهُمْ بِعَاصِفَتِكَ، وَأَفْزِعْهُمْ بِزَوْبَعَتِكَ.١٥
16 Shame them in defeat so that they come to you, Lord!
امْلأْ وُجُوهَهُمْ خِزْياً فَيَلْتَمِسُوا اسْمَكَ يَا رَبُّ.١٦
17 Make them ashamed, terrify them forever so that they die in disgrace.
لِيَحُلَّ بِهِمِ الْعَارُ وَالرُّعْبُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَلْيَخْزَوْا وَيَهْلِكُوا.١٧
18 Let them understand that you alone, called the Lord, are the Most High who rules over all the earth.
وَيَعْلَمُوا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ، يَهْوَه الْعَلِيُّ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا.١٨
