< Psalms 94 >

1 YHWH, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.
يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ إِلَهُ الانْتِقَامِ، فَتَجَلَّ بِغَضَبِكَ.١
2 Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
قُمْ يَا دَيَّانَ الأَرْضِ وَجَازِ الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ عَلَى أَعْمَالِهِمْ.٢
3 YHWH, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
إِلَى مَتَى يَا رَبُّ يَشْمَتُ الأَشْرَارُ فَرِحِينَ؟٣
4 They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
إِلَى مَتَى يَهْذِرُ عُمَّالُ الإِثْمِ وَيَتَوَاقَحُونَ وَيَتَبَاهَوْنَ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ؟٤
5 They break your people in pieces, YHWH, and afflict your heritage.
يَسْحَقُونَ شَعْبَكَ يَا رَبُّ وَيَضْطَهِدُونَهُ،٥
6 They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
يَقْتُلُونَ الأَرْمَلَةَ وَالْغَرِيبَ وَيَذْبَحُونَ الْيَتِيمَ.٦
7 They say, "JAH will not see, neither will Jacob's God consider."
وَيَقُولُونَ: «الرَّبُّ لَا يَرَى هَذَا، وَإِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا يُبَالِي».٧
8 Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
افْهَمُوا يَا أَغْبِيَاءَ الشَّعْبِ! يَا جُهَّالُ مَتَى تَتَعَقَّلُونَ؟٨
9 He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see?
صَانِعُ الأُذُنِ أَلَا يَسْمَعُ؟ جَابِلُ الْعَيْنِ أَلَا يُبْصِرُ؟٩
10 He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows.
مُؤَدِّبُ الأُمَمِ أَلَا يَزْجُرُ وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُعَلِّمُ الإِنْسَانَ الْحِكْمَةَ؟١٠
11 YHWH knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
الرَّبُّ يَعْلَمُ أَفْكَارَ الإِنْسَانِ وَيَعْرِفُ أَنَّهَا بَاطِلَةٌ.١١
12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, JAH, and teach out of your Law;
طُوبَى لِلإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي تُؤَدِّبُهُ، وَتُعَلِّمُهُ مِنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ يَا رَبُّ!١٢
13 that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
لِتُرِيحَهُ مِنْ أَيَّامِ السُّوءِ، إِلَى أَنْ يَمُوتَ الشِّرِّيرُ وَيَتَوَارَى فِي مَثْواهُ.١٣
14 For YHWH won't reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
لَا يَرْفُضُ اللهُ شَعْبَهُ، وَلَا يَنْبِذُ خَاصَّتَهُ.١٤
15 For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
لأَنَّ القَضَاءَ يُصْبِحُ عَدْلاً وَيُحِبُّهُ جَمِيعُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِي الْقُلُوبِ.١٥
16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
مَنْ يَتَوَلَّى عَنِّي مُحَارَبَةَ الأَشْرَارِ؟ مَنْ يُجَابِهُ عَنِّي فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ؟١٦
17 Unless YHWH had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الرَّبُّ مُعِينِي لَسَكَنَتْ نَفْسِي الْقَبْرَ.١٧
18 When I said, "My foot is slipping." Your loving kindness, YHWH, held me up.
قُلْتُ: قَدْ زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي. وَلَكِنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ يَا رَبُّ صَارَتْ لِي سَنَداً.١٨
19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
عِنْدَ كَثْرَةِ هُمُومِي فِي دَاخِلِي تَبْتَهِجُ نَفْسِي بِتَعْزِيَاتِكَ.١٩
20 Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
أَيُحَالِفُكَ مَلِكُ الشَّرِّ الْمُخْتَلِقُ إثْماً لِيَجْعَلَ الظُّلْمَ شَرِيعَةً لِلْقَضَاءِ؟٢٠
21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
يَجْتَمِعُونَ مَعاً لِلْقَضَاءِ عَلَى حَيَاةِ الصِّدِّيقِ، وَيَحْكُمُونَ عَلَى الْبَرِيءِ بِالْمَوْتِ.٢١
22 But YHWH has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ حِصْنِي الْمَنِيعُ؛ إِلَهِي هُوَ الصَّخْرَةُ الَّتِي بِها أَحْتَمِي.٢٢
23 He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. YHWH, our God, will cut them off.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا يُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ، وَيُبِيدُهُمْ بِشَرِّهِمْ.٢٣
