قصيدة لاساف. | |
| 1 لِمَاذَا رَفَضْتَنَا يَا اَللهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ؟ لِمَاذَا يُدَخِّنُ غَضَبُكَ عَلَى غَنَمِ مَرْعَاكَ؟ | 1 O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture? |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2 اذْكُرْ جَمَاعَتَكَ الَّتِي اقْتَنَيْتَهَا مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، وَفَدَيْتَهَا سِبْطَ مِيرَاثِكَ، جَبَلَ صِهْيَوْنَ هذَا الَّذِي سَكَنْتَ فِيهِ. | 2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt. |
|
| 3 ارْفَعْ خَطَوَاتِكَ إِلَى الْخِرَبِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ. الْكُلَّ قَدْ حَطَّمَ الْعَدُوُّ فِي الْمَقْدِسِ. | 3 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary. |
|
|
| 4 قَدْ زَمْجَرَ مُقَاوِمُوكَ فِي وَسَطِ مَعْهَدِكَ، جَعَلُوا آيَاتِهِمْ آيَاتٍ. | 4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs. |
|
|
| 5 يَبَانُ كَأَنَّهُ رَافِعُ فُؤُوسٍ عَلَى الأَشْجَارِ الْمُشْتَبِكَةِ. | 5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees. |
|
|
| 6 وَالآنَ مَنْقُوشَاتِهِ مَعًا بِالْفُؤُوسِ وَالْمَعَاوِلِ يَكْسِرُونَ. | 6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers. |
|
| 7 أَطْلَقُوا النَّارَ فِي مَقْدِسِكَ. دنَّسُوا لِلأَرْضِ مَسْكَنَ اسْمِكَ. | 7 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground. |
|
| 8 قَالُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ: «لِنُفْنِينَّهُمْ مَعًا!». أَحْرَقُوا كُلَّ مَعَاهِدِ اللهِ فِي الأَرْضِ. | 8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land. |
|
|
| 9 آيَاتِنَا لاَ نَرَى. لاَ نَبِيَّ بَعْدُ، وَلاَ بَيْنَنَا مَنْ يَعْرِفُ حَتَّى مَتَى. | 9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long. |
|
|
|
| 10 حَتَّى مَتَى يَا اَللهُ يُعَيِّرُ الْمُقَاوِمُ؟ وَيُهِينُ الْعَدُوُّ اسْمَكَ إِلَى الْغَايَةِ؟ | 10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever? |
|
|
|
| 11 لِمَاذَا تَرُدُّ يَدَكَ وَيَمِينَكَ؟ أَخْرِجْهَا مِنْ وَسَطِ حِضْنِكَ. أَفْنِ. | 11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom. |
|
| 12 وَاللهُ مَلِكِي مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، فَاعِلُ الْخَلاَصِ فِي وَسَطِ الأَرْضِ. | 12 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth. |
|
|
|
|
| 13 أَنْتَ شَقَقْتَ الْبَحْرَ بِقُوَّتِكَ. كَسَرْتَ رُؤُوسَ التَّنَانِينِ عَلَى الْمِيَاهِ. | 13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters. |
|
| 14 أَنْتَ رَضَضْتَ رُؤُوسَ لِوِيَاثَانَ. جَعَلْتَهُ طَعَامًا لِلشَّعْبِ، لأَهْلِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ. | 14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness. |
|
|
| 15 أَنْتَ فَجَّرْتَ عَيْنًا وَسَيْلاً. أَنْتَ يَبَّسْتَ أَنْهَارًا دَائِمَةَ الْجَرَيَانِ. | 15 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers. |
|
| 16 لَكَ النَّهَارُ، وَلَكَ أَيْضًا اللَّيْلُ. أَنْتَ هَيَّأْتَ النُّورَ وَالشَّمْسَ. | 16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun. |
|
| 17 أَنْتَ نَصَبْتَ كُلَّ تُخُومِ الأَرْضِ. الصَّيْفَ وَالشِّتَاءَ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهُمَا. | 17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter. |
|
| 18 اُذْكُرْ هذَا: أَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ قَدْ عَيَّرَ الرَّبَّ، وَشَعْبًا جَاهِلاً قَدْ أَهَانَ اسْمَكَ. | 18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name. |
|
|
|
|
| 19 لاَ تُسَلِّمْ لِلْوَحْشِ نَفْسَ يَمَامَتِكَ. قَطِيعَ بَائِسِيكَ لاَ تَنْسَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | 19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever. |
|
|
| 20 انْظُرْ إِلَى الْعَهْدِ، لأَنَّ مُظْلِمَاتِ الأَرْضِ امْتَلأَتْ مِنْ مَسَاكِنِ الظُّلْمِ. | 20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty. |
|
| 21 لاَ يَرْجِعَنَّ الْمُنْسَحِقُ خَازِيًا. الْفَقِيرُ وَالْبَائِسُ لِيُسَبِّحَا اسْمَكَ. | 21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name. |
|
| 22 قُمْ يَا اَللهُ. أَقِمْ دَعْوَاكَ. اذْكُرْ تَعْيِيرَ الْجَاهِلِ إِيَّاكَ الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | 22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily. |
|
|
|
| 23 لاَ تَنْسَ صَوْتَ أَضْدَادِكَ، ضَجِيجَ مُقَاوِمِيكَ الصَّاعِدَ دَائِمًا. | 23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually. |
