Psalms 74
1 Maschil of Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast [us] off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
| قَصِيدَةٌ لِآسَافَ لِمَاذَا رَفَضْتَنَا يَا ٱللهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ؟ لِمَاذَا يُدَخِّنُ غَضَبُكَ عَلَى غَنَمِ مَرْعَاكَ؟ | ١ |
2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old, which thou hast redeemed to be the tribe of thine inheritance; [and] mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
| ٱذْكُرْ جَمَاعَتَكَ ٱلَّتِي ٱقْتَنَيْتَهَا مُنْذُ ٱلْقِدَمِ، وَفَدَيْتَهَا سِبْطَ مِيرَاثِكَ، جَبَلَ صِهْيَوْنَ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي سَكَنْتَ فِيهِ. | ٢ |
3 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual ruins, all the evil that the enemy hath done in the sanctuary.
| ٱرْفَعْ خَطَوَاتِكَ إِلَى ٱلْخِرَبِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ. ٱلْكُلَّ قَدْ حَطَّمَ ٱلْعَدُوُّ فِي ٱلْمَقْدِسِ. | ٣ |
4 Thine adversaries have roared in the midst of thine assembly; they have set up their ensigns for signs.
| قَدْ زَمْجَرَ مُقَاوِمُوكَ فِي وَسَطِ مَعْهَدِكَ، جَعَلُوا آيَاتِهِمْ آيَاتٍ. | ٤ |
5 They seemed as men that lifted up axes upon a thicket of trees.
| يَبَانُ كَأَنَّهُ رَافِعُ فُؤُوسٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَشْجَارِ ٱلْمُشْتَبِكَةِ. | ٥ |
6 And now all the carved work thereof together they break down with hatchet and hammers.
| وَٱلْآنَ مَنْقُوشَاتِهِ مَعًا بِٱلْفُؤُوسِ وَٱلْمَعَاوِلِ يَكْسِرُونَ. | ٦ |
7 They have set thy sanctuary on fire; they have profaned the dwelling place of thy name even to the ground.
| أَطْلَقُوا ٱلنَّارَ فِي مَقْدِسِكَ. دنَّسُوا لِلْأَرْضِ مَسْكَنَ ٱسْمِكَ. | ٧ |
8 They said in their heart, Let us make havoc of them altogether: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
| قَالُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ: «لِنُفْنِينَّهُمْ مَعًا!». أَحْرَقُوا كُلَّ مَعَاهِدِ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٨ |
9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet; neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
| آيَاتِنَا لَا نَرَى. لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدُ، وَلَا بَيْنَنَا مَنْ يَعْرِفُ حَتَّى مَتَى. | ٩ |
10 How long, O God, shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
| حَتَّى مَتَى يَا ٱللهُ يُعَيِّرُ ٱلْمُقَاوِمُ؟ وَيُهِينُ ٱلْعَدُوُّ ٱسْمَكَ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ؟ | ١٠ |
11 Why drawest thou back thy hand, even thy right hand? [pluck it] out of thy bosom [and] consume [them].
| لِمَاذَا تَرُدُّ يَدَكَ وَيَمِينَكَ؟ أَخْرِجْهَا مِنْ وَسَطِ حِضْنِكَ. أَفْنِ. | ١١ |
12 Yet God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.
| وَٱللهُ مَلِكِي مُنْذُ ٱلْقِدَمِ، فَاعِلُ ٱلْخَلَاصِ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٢ |
13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.
| أَنْتَ شَقَقْتَ ٱلْبَحْرَ بِقُوَّتِكَ. كَسَرْتَ رُؤُوسَ ٱلتَّنَانِينِ عَلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ. | ١٣ |
14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, thou gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
| أَنْتَ رَضَضْتَ رُؤُوسَ لِوِيَاثَانَ. جَعَلْتَهُ طَعَامًا لِلشَّعْبِ، لِأَهْلِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ١٤ |
15 Thou didst cleave fountain and flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.
| أَنْتَ فَجَّرْتَ عَيْنًا وَسَيْلًا. أَنْتَ يَبَّسْتَ أَنْهَارًا دَائِمَةَ ٱلْجَرَيَانِ. | ١٥ |
16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
| لَكَ ٱلنَّهَارُ، وَلَكَ أَيْضًا ٱللَّيْلُ. أَنْتَ هَيَّأْتَ ٱلنُّورَ وَٱلشَّمْسَ. | ١٦ |
17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
| أَنْتَ نَصَبْتَ كُلَّ تُخُومِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٱلصَّيْفَ وَٱلشِّتَاءَ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهُمَا. | ١٧ |
18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
| اُذْكُرْ هَذَا: أَنَّ ٱلْعَدُوَّ قَدْ عَيَّرَ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَشَعْبًا جَاهِلًا قَدْ أَهَانَ ٱسْمَكَ. | ١٨ |
19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtle-dove unto the wild beast: forget not the life of thy poor for ever.
| لَا تُسَلِّمْ لِلْوَحْشِ نَفْسَ يَمَامَتِكَ. قَطِيعَ بَائِسِيكَ لَا تَنْسَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ١٩ |
20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.
| ٱنْظُرْ إِلَى ٱلْعَهْدِ، لِأَنَّ مُظْلِمَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱمْتَلَأَتْ مِنْ مَسَاكِنِ ٱلظُّلْمِ. | ٢٠ |
21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
| لَا يَرْجِعَنَّ ٱلْمُنْسَحِقُ خَازِيًا. ٱلْفَقِيرُ وَٱلْبَائِسُ لِيُسَبِّحَا ٱسْمَكَ. | ٢١ |
22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee all the day.
| قُمْ يَا ٱللهُ. أَقِمْ دَعْوَاكَ. ٱذْكُرْ تَعْيِيرَ ٱلْجَاهِلِ إِيَّاكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | ٢٢ |
23 Forget not the voice of thine adversaries: the tumult of those that rise up against thee ascendeth continually.
| لَا تَنْسَ صَوْتَ أَضْدَادِكَ، ضَجِيجَ مُقَاوِمِيكَ ٱلصَّاعِدَ دَائِمًا. | ٢٣ |
