1A Maskil of Asaph. Why have You rejected us forever, God? Why does Your anger burn against the sheep of Your pasture? 1מַשְׂכִּ֗יל לְאָ֫סָ֥ף לָמָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים זָנַ֣חְתָּ לָנֶ֑צַח יֶעְשַׁ֥ן אַ֝פְּךָ֗ בְּצֹ֣אן מַרְעִיתֶֽךָ׃
2Remember Your congregation, which You purchased long ago and redeemed as the tribe for Your own possession. Remember Mount Zion where You dwell. 2זְכֹ֤ר עֲדָתְךָ֨ ׀ קָ֘נִ֤יתָ קֶּ֗דֶם גָּ֭אַלְתָּ שֵׁ֣בֶט נַחֲלָתֶ֑ךָ הַר־ צִ֝יּ֗וֹן זֶ֤ה ׀ שָׁכַ֬נְתָּ בּֽוֹ׃
3Make Your way to the everlasting ruins, to all that the enemy has destroyed in the sanctuary. 3הָרִ֣ימָה פְ֭עָמֶיךָ לְמַשֻּׁא֣וֹת נֶ֑צַח כָּל־ הֵרַ֖ע אוֹיֵ֣ב בַּקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃
4Your adversaries roared in the meeting place where You met with us. They set up their emblems as signs. 4שָׁאֲג֣וּ צֹ֭רְרֶיךָ בְּקֶ֣רֶב מוֹעֲדֶ֑ךָ שָׂ֖מוּ אוֹתֹתָ֣ם אֹתֽוֹת׃
5It was like men in a thicket of trees, wielding axes, 5יִ֭וָּדַע כְּמֵבִ֣יא לְמָ֑עְלָה בִּֽסֲבָךְ־ עֵ֝֗ץ קַרְדֻּמּֽוֹת׃
6then smashing all the carvings with hatchets and picks. 6ועת [וְ֭עַתָּה] (פִּתּוּחֶ֣יהָ) יָּ֑חַד בְּכַשִּׁ֥יל וְ֝כֵֽילַפֹּ֗ת יַהֲלֹמֽוּן׃
7They set Your sanctuary on fire; they utterly desecrated the dwelling place of Your name. 7שִׁלְח֣וּ בָ֭אֵשׁ מִקְדָּשֶׁ֑ךָ לָ֝אָ֗רֶץ חִלְּל֥וּ מִֽשְׁכַּן־ שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
8They said in their hearts," Let us oppress them relentlessly." They burned down every place throughout the land where God met with us. 8אָמְר֣וּ בְ֭לִבָּם נִינָ֣ם יָ֑חַד שָׂרְפ֖וּ כָל־ מוֹעֲדֵי־ אֵ֣ל בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
9There are no signs for us to see. There is no longer a prophet. And none of us knows how long this will last. 9אֽוֹתֹתֵ֗ינוּ לֹ֥א רָ֫אִ֥ינוּ אֵֽין־ ע֥וֹד נָבִ֑יא וְלֹֽא־ אִ֝תָּ֗נוּ יֹדֵ֥עַ עַד־ מָֽה׃
10God, how long will the enemy mock? Will the foe insult Your name forever? 10עַד־ מָתַ֣י אֱ֭לֹהִים יְחָ֣רֶף צָ֑ר יְנָ֘אֵ֤ץ אוֹיֵ֖ב שִׁמְךָ֣ לָנֶֽצַח׃
11Why do You hold back Your hand? Stretch out Your right hand and destroy them! 11לָ֤מָּה תָשִׁ֣יב יָ֭דְךָ וִֽימִינֶ֑ךָ מִקֶּ֖רֶב חוקך [חֵֽיקְךָ֣] (כַלֵּֽה׃)
12God my King is from ancient times, performing saving acts on the earth. 12וֵ֭אלֹהִים מַלְכִּ֣י מִקֶּ֑דֶם פֹּעֵ֥ל יְ֝שׁוּע֗וֹת בְּקֶ֣רֶב הָאָֽרֶץ׃
13You divided the sea with Your strength; You smashed the heads of the sea monsters in the waters; 13אַתָּ֤ה פוֹרַ֣רְתָּ בְעָזְּךָ֣ יָ֑ם שִׁבַּ֖רְתָּ רָאשֵׁ֥י תַ֝נִּינִ֗ים עַל־ הַמָּֽיִם׃
14You crushed the heads of Leviathan; You fed him to the creatures of the desert. 14אַתָּ֣ה רִ֭צַּצְתָּ רָאשֵׁ֣י לִוְיָתָ֑ן תִּתְּנֶ֥נּוּ מַ֝אֲכָ֗ל לְעָ֣ם לְצִיִּֽים׃
15You opened up springs and streams; You dried up ever-flowing rivers. 15אַתָּ֣ה בָ֭קַעְתָּ מַעְיָ֣ן וָנָ֑חַל אַתָּ֥ה ה֝וֹבַ֗שְׁתָּ נַהֲר֥וֹת אֵיתָֽן׃
16The day is Yours, also the night; You established the moon and the sun. 16לְךָ֣ י֭וֹם אַף־ לְךָ֥ לָ֑יְלָה אַתָּ֥ה הֲ֝כִינ֗וֹתָ מָא֥וֹר וָשָֽׁמֶשׁ׃
17You set all the boundaries of the earth; You made summer and winter. 17אַתָּ֣ה הִ֭צַּבְתָּ כָּל־ גְּבוּל֣וֹת אָ֑רֶץ קַ֥יִץ וָ֝חֹ֗רֶף אַתָּ֥ה יְצַרְתָּם׃‪‬
18Remember this: the enemy has mocked Yahweh, and a foolish people has insulted Your name. 18זְכָר־ זֹ֗את א֭וֹיֵב חֵרֵ֣ף ׀ יְהוָ֑ה וְעַ֥ם נָ֝בָ֗ל נִֽאֲצ֥וּ שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
19Do not give the life of Your dove to beasts; do not forget the lives of Your poor people forever. 19אַל־ תִּתֵּ֣ן לְ֭חַיַּת נֶ֣פֶשׁ תּוֹרֶ֑ךָ חַיַּ֥ת עֲ֝נִיֶּ֗יךָ אַל־ תִּשְׁכַּ֥ח לָנֶֽצַח׃
20Consider the covenant, for the dark places of the land are full of violence. 20הַבֵּ֥ט לַבְּרִ֑ית כִּ֥י מָלְא֥וּ מַחֲשַׁכֵּי־ אֶ֝֗רֶץ נְא֣וֹת חָמָֽס׃
21Do not let the oppressed turn away in shame; let the poor and needy praise Your name. 21אַל־ יָשֹׁ֣ב דַּ֣ךְ נִכְלָ֑ם עָנִ֥י וְ֝אֶבְי֗וֹן יְֽהַלְל֥וּ שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
22Rise up, God, defend Your cause! Remember the insults that fools bring against You all day long. 22קוּמָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים רִיבָ֣ה רִיבֶ֑ךָ זְכֹ֥ר חֶרְפָּתְךָ֥ מִנִּי־ נָ֝בָ֗ל כָּל־ הַיּֽוֹם׃
23Do not forget the clamor of Your adversaries, the tumult of Your opponents that goes up constantly. 23אַל־ תִּ֭שְׁכַּח ק֣וֹל צֹרְרֶ֑יךָ שְׁא֥וֹן קָ֝מֶ֗יךָ עֹלֶ֥ה תָמִֽיד׃
