< תהילים 74 >
מַשְׂכִּיל לְאָסָף לָמָה אֱלֹהִים זָנַחְתָּ לָנֶצַח יֶעְשַׁן אַפְּךָ בְּצֹאן מַרְעִיתֶֽךָ׃ | 1 |
An Instruction of Asaph. Why, O God, hast Thou cast off for ever? Thine anger smoketh against the flock of Thy pasture.
זְכֹר עֲדָֽתְךָ ׀ קָנִיתָ קֶּדֶם גָּאַלְתָּ שֵׁבֶט נַחֲלָתֶךָ הַר־צִיּוֹן זֶה ׀ שָׁכַנְתָּ בּֽוֹ׃ | 2 |
Remember Thy company. Thou didst purchase of old, Thou didst redeem the rod of Thy inheritance, This mount Zion — Thou didst dwell in it.
הָרִימָה פְעָמֶיךָ לְמַשֻּׁאוֹת נֶצַח כׇּל־הֵרַע אוֹיֵב בַּקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ | 3 |
Lift up Thy steps to the perpetual desolations, Everything the enemy did wickedly in the sanctuary.
שָׁאֲגוּ צֹרְרֶיךָ בְּקֶרֶב מוֹעֲדֶךָ שָׂמוּ אוֹתֹתָם אֹתֽוֹת׃ | 4 |
Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.
יִוָּדַע כְּמֵבִיא לְמָעְלָה בִּסְבׇךְ־עֵץ קַרְדֻּמּֽוֹת׃ | 5 |
He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of wood — axes.
(ועת) [וְעַתָּה] פִּתּוּחֶיהָ יָּחַד בְּכַשִּׁיל וְכֵילַפּוֹת יַהֲלֹמֽוּן׃ | 6 |
And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they break down,
שִׁלְחוּ בָאֵשׁ מִקְדָּשֶׁךָ לָאָרֶץ חִלְּלוּ מִֽשְׁכַּן־שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ | 7 |
They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,
אָמְרוּ בְלִבָּם נִינָם יָחַד שָׂרְפוּ כׇל־מוֹעֲדֵי־אֵל בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ | 8 |
They said in their hearts, 'Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.
אוֹתֹתֵינוּ לֹא רָאִינוּ אֵֽין־עוֹד נָבִיא וְלֹֽא־אִתָּנוּ יֹדֵעַ עַד־מָֽה׃ | 9 |
Our ensigns we have not seen, There is no more a prophet, Nor with us is one knowing how long.
עַד־מָתַי אֱלֹהִים יְחָרֶף צָר יְנָאֵץ אוֹיֵב שִׁמְךָ לָנֶֽצַח׃ | 10 |
Till when, O God, doth an adversary reproach? Doth an enemy despise thy name for ever?
לָמָּה תָשִׁיב יָדְךָ וִימִינֶךָ מִקֶּרֶב (חוקך) [חֵיקְךָ] כַלֵּֽה׃ | 11 |
Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand? From the midst of Thy bosom remove [it].
וֵאלֹהִים מַלְכִּי מִקֶּדֶם פֹּעֵל יְשׁוּעוֹת בְּקֶרֶב הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 12 |
And God [is] my king of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.
אַתָּה פוֹרַרְתָּ בְעׇזְּךָ יָם שִׁבַּרְתָּ רָאשֵׁי תַנִּינִים עַל־הַמָּֽיִם׃ | 13 |
Thou hast broken by Thy strength a sea -[monster], Thou hast shivered Heads of dragons by the waters,
אַתָּה רִצַּצְתָּ רָאשֵׁי לִוְיָתָן תִּתְּנֶנּוּ מַאֲכָל לְעָם לְצִיִּֽים׃ | 14 |
Thou hast broken the heads of leviathan, Thou makest him food, For the people of the dry places.
אַתָּה בָקַעְתָּ מַעְיָן וָנָחַל אַתָּה הוֹבַשְׁתָּ נַהֲרוֹת אֵיתָֽן׃ | 15 |
Thou hast cleaved a fountain and a stream, Thou hast dried up perennial flowings.
לְךָ יוֹם אַף־לְךָ לָיְלָה אַתָּה הֲכִינוֹתָ מָאוֹר וָשָֽׁמֶשׁ׃ | 16 |
Thine [is] the day, also Thine [is] the night, Thou hast prepared a light giver — the sun.
אַתָּה הִצַּבְתָּ כׇּל־גְּבוּלוֹת אָרֶץ קַיִץ וָחֹרֶף אַתָּה יְצַרְתָּֽם׃ | 17 |
Thou hast set up all the borders of earth, Summer and winter Thou hast formed them.
זְכׇר־זֹאת אוֹיֵב חֵרֵף ׀ יְהֹוָה וְעַם נָבָל נִאֲצוּ שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ | 18 |
Remember this — an enemy reproached Jehovah, And a foolish people have despised Thy name.
אַל־תִּתֵּן לְחַיַּת נֶפֶשׁ תּוֹרֶךָ חַיַּת עֲנִיֶּיךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח לָנֶֽצַח׃ | 19 |
Give not up to a company, The soul of Thy turtle-dove, The company of Thy poor ones forget not for ever.
הַבֵּט לַבְּרִית כִּי מָלְאוּ מַחֲשַׁכֵּי־אֶרֶץ נְאוֹת חָמָֽס׃ | 20 |
Look attentively to the covenant, For the dark places of earth, Have been full of habitations of violence.
אַל־יָשֹׁב דַּךְ נִכְלָם עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן יְֽהַלְלוּ שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ | 21 |
Let not the oppressed turn back ashamed, Let the poor and needy praise Thy name,
קוּמָה אֱלֹהִים רִיבָה רִיבֶךָ זְכֹר חֶרְפָּתְךָ מִנִּי־נָבָל כׇּל־הַיּֽוֹם׃ | 22 |
Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a fool all the day.
אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח קוֹל צֹרְרֶיךָ שְׁאוֹן קָמֶיךָ עֹלֶה תָמִֽיד׃ | 23 |
Forget not the voice of Thine adversaries, The noise of Thy withstanders is going up continually!
