1 Why, LORD, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises.3 He boasts about the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.5 His ways are always prosperous; your laws are rejected by "him; he sneers at all his enemies.6 He says to himself, "Nothing will ever shake me." He swears, "No one will ever do me harm."7 His mouth is full of lies and threats; trouble and evil are under his tongue.8 He lies in wait near the villages; from ambush he murders the innocent. His eyes watch in secret for his victims;9 like a lion in cover he lies in wait. He lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.10 His victims are crushed, they collapse; they fall under his strength.11 He says to himself, "God will never notice; he covers his face and never sees."12 Arise, LORD! Lift up your hand, O God. Do not forget the helpless.13 Why does the wicked man revile God? Why does he say to himself, "He won't call me to account"?14 But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.15 Break the arm of the wicked man; call the evildoer to account for his wickedness that would not otherwise be found out.16 The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations will perish from his land.17 You, LORD, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,18 defending the fatherless and the oppressed, so that mere earthly mortals will never again strike terror.
1 يا رب لماذا تقف بعيدا. لماذا تختفي في ازمنة الضيق.2 في كبرياء الشرير يحترق المسكين. يؤخذون بالمؤامرة التي فكروا بها.3 لان الشرير يفتخر بشهوات نفسه. والخاطف يجدف يهين الرب.4 الشرير حسب تشامخ انفه يقول لا يطالب. كل افكاره انه لا اله.5 تثبت سبله في كل حين. عالية احكامك فوقه. كل اعدائه ينفث فيهم.6 قال في قلبه لا اتزعزع. من دور الى دور بلا سوء.7 فمه مملوء لعنة وغشا وظلما. تحت لسانه مشقة واثم.8 يجلس في مكمن الديار في المختفيات يقتل البري. عيناه تراقبان المسكين.9 يكمن في المختفى كاسد في عرّيسه. يكمن ليخطف المسكين. يخطف المسكين بجذبه في شبكته.10 فتنسحق وتنحني وتسقط المساكين ببراثنه.11 قال في قلبه ان الله قد نسي. حجب وجهه. لا يرى الى الابد12 قم يا رب. يا الله ارفع يدك. لا تنس المساكين.13 لماذا اهان الشرير الله. لماذا قال في قلبه لا تطالب.14 قد رأيت لانك تبصر المشقة والغم لتجازي بيدك. اليك يسلم المسكين امره. انت صرت معين اليتيم15 احطم ذراع الفاجر. والشرير تطلب شرّه ولا تجده.16 الرب ملك الى الدهر والابد بادت الامم من ارضه.17 تأوه الودعاء قد سمعت يا رب. تثبت قلوبهم. تميل اذنك18 لحق اليتيم والمنسحق لكي لا يعود ايضا يرعبهم انسان من الارض
