STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCHNEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 מַשְׂכִּיל לְאָסָף לָמָה אֱלֹהִים זָנַחְתָּ לָנֶצַח יֶעְשַׁן אַפְּךָ בְּצֹאן מַרְעִיתֶךָ1 A maskil of Asaph. I Why, God, have you cast us off forever? Why does your anger burn against the sheep of your pasture?
2 זְכֹר עֲדָתְךָ ׀ קָנִיתָ קֶּדֶם גָּאַלְתָּ שֵׁבֶט נַחֲלָתֶךָ הַר־צִיֹּון זֶה ׀ שָׁכַנְתָּ בֹּו2 Remember your flock that you gathered of old, the tribe you redeemed as your very own. Remember Mount Zion where you dwell.
3 הָרִימָה פְעָמֶיךָ לְמַשֻּׁאֹות נֶצַח כָּל־הֵרַע אֹויֵב בַּקֹּדֶשׁ3 Turn your steps toward the utter ruins, toward the sanctuary devastated by the enemy.
4 שָׁאֲגוּ צֹרְרֶיךָ בְּקֶרֶב מֹועֲדֶךָ שָׂמוּ אֹותֹתָם אֹתֹות4 Your foes roared triumphantly in your shrine; they set up their own tokens of victory.
5 יִוָּדַע כְּמֵבִיא לְמָעְלָה בִּסֲבָךְ־עֵץ קַרְדֻּמֹּות5 They hacked away like foresters gathering boughs, swinging their axes in a thicket of trees.
6 [וְעֵת כ] (וְעַתָּה ק) פִּתּוּחֶיהָ יָּחַד בְּכַשִּׁיל וְכֵילַפֹּת יַהֲלֹמוּן6 They smashed all your engraved work, pounded it with hammer and pick.
7 שִׁלְחוּ בָאֵשׁ מִקְדָּשֶׁךָ לָאָרֶץ חִלְּלוּ מִשְׁכַּן־שְׁמֶךָ7 They set your sanctuary on fire; the abode of your name they razed and profaned.
8 אָמְרוּ בְלִבָּם נִינָם יָחַד שָׂרְפוּ כָל־מֹועֲדֵי־אֵל בָּאָרֶץ8 They said in their hearts, "Destroy them all! Burn all the shrines of God in the land!"
9 אֹותֹתֵינוּ לֹא רָאִינוּ אֵין־עֹוד נָבִיא וְלֹא־אִתָּנוּ יֹדֵעַ עַד־מָה9 Now we see no signs, we have no prophets, no one who knows how long.
10 עַד־מָתַי אֱלֹהִים יְחָרֶף צָר יְנָאֵץ אֹויֵב שִׁמְךָ לָנֶצַח10 How long, O God, shall the enemy jeer? Shall the foe revile your name forever?
11 לָמָּה תָשִׁיב יָדְךָ וִימִינֶךָ מִקֶּרֶב [חֹוקְךָ כ] (חֵיקְךָ ק) כַלֵּה11 Why draw back your right hand, why keep it idle beneath your cloak?
12 וֵאלֹהִים מַלְכִּי מִקֶּדֶם פֹּעֵל יְשׁוּעֹות בְּקֶרֶב הָאָרֶץ12 Yet you, God, are my king from of old, winning victories throughout the earth.
13 אַתָּה פֹורַרְתָּ בְעָזְּךָ יָם שִׁבַּרְתָּ רָאשֵׁי תַנִּינִים עַל־הַמָּיִם13 You stirred up the sea in your might; you smashed the heads of the dragons on the waters.
14 אַתָּה רִצַּצְתָּ רָאשֵׁי לִוְיָתָן תִּתְּנֶנּוּ מַאֲכָל לְעָם לְצִיִּים14 You crushed the heads of Leviathan, tossed him for food to the sharks.
15 אַתָּה בָקַעְתָּ מַעְיָן וָנָחַל אַתָּה הֹובַשְׁתָּ נַהֲרֹות אֵיתָן15 You opened up springs and torrents, brought dry land out of the primeval waters.
16 לְךָ יֹום אַף־לְךָ לָיְלָה אַתָּה הֲכִינֹותָ מָאֹור וָשָׁמֶשׁ16 Yours the day and yours the night; you set the moon and sun in place.
17 אַתָּה הִצַּבְתָּ כָּל־גְּבוּלֹות אָרֶץ קַיִץ וָחֹרֶף אַתָּה יְצַרְתָּם17 You fixed all the limits of the earth; summer and winter you made.
18 זְכָר־זֹאת אֹויֵב חֵרֵף ׀ יְהוָה וְעַם נָבָל נִאֲצוּ שְׁמֶךָ18 Remember how the enemy has jeered, O LORD, how a foolish people has reviled your name.
19 אַל־תִּתֵּן לְחַיַּת נֶפֶשׁ תֹּורֶךָ חַיַּת עֲנִיֶּיךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח לָנֶצַח19 Do not surrender to beasts those who praise you; do not forget forever the life of your afflicted.
20 הַבֵּט לַבְּרִית כִּי מָלְאוּ מַחֲשַׁכֵּי־אֶרֶץ נְאֹות חָמָס20 Look to your covenant, for the land is filled with gloom; the pastures, with violence.
21 אַל־יָשֹׁב דַּךְ נִכְלָם עָנִי וְאֶבְיֹון יְהַלְלוּ שְׁמֶךָ21 Let not the oppressed turn back in shame; may the poor and needy praise your name.
22 קוּמָה אֱלֹהִים רִיבָה רִיבֶךָ זְכֹר חֶרְפָּתְךָ מִנִּי־נָבָל כָּל־הַיֹּום22 Arise, God, defend your cause; remember the constant jeers of the fools.
23 אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח קֹול צֹרְרֶיךָ שְׁאֹון קָמֶיךָ עֹלֶה תָמִיד23 Do not ignore the clamor of your foes, the unceasing uproar of your enemies.
