መዝሙር 94
የእግዚአብሔር ፍትሕ
1የበቀል አምላክ፣ አንተ እግዚአብሔር ሆይ፤
የበቀል አምላክ ሆይ፤ ደምቀህ ተገለጥ።
2አንተ የምድር ዳኛ ሆይ፤ ተነሥ፤
ለትዕቢተኞች የእጃቸውን ስጣቸው።
3ክፉዎች እስከ መቼ እግዚአብሔር ሆይ፤ ክፉዎች እስከ መቼ ይፈነጫሉ?
4የእብሪት ቃላት ያዥጐደጕዳሉ፤
ክፉ አድራጊዎች ሁሉ ጕራ ይነዛሉ።
5እግዚአብሔር ሆይ፤ ሕዝብህን አደቀቁ፤
ርስትህንም አስጨነቁ።
6መበለቲቱንና መጻተኛውን ገደሉ፤
የድኻ ዐደጉንም ነፍስ አጠፉ።
7እነርሱም “እግዚአብሔር አያይም፤
የያዕቆብም አምላክ አያስተውልም” አሉ።
8እናንት በሕዝቡ መካከል ያላችሁ ደነዞች፤ ልብ በሉ፤
እናንት ቂሎች፤ ጥበበኞች የምትሆኑት መቼ ነው?
9ጆሮን የተከለው እርሱ አይሰማምን? ዐይንንስ የሠራ እርሱ አያይምን?
10ሕዝቦችን በተግሣጽ ወደ መንገድ የሚመልስ፣
ዕውቀትንስ ለሰው ልጆች የሚያስተምር አይቀጣምን?
11እግዚአብሔር የሰው ሐሳብ መና፣
ከንቱም እንደ ሆነ ያውቃል።
12እግዚአብሔር ሆይ፤ አንተ የምትገሥጸው፣
ከሕግህም የምታስተምረው ሰው ምስጉን ነው።
13ለኀጢአተኞች ጕድጓድ እስኪማስላቸው ድረስ፣
እርሱን ከመከራ ታሳርፈዋለህ።
14እግዚአብሔር ሕዝቡን አይጥልምና፤
ርስቱንም አይተውም።
15ፍርድ ተመልሶ በጽድቅ አሠራር ላይ ይመሠረታል፤
ልባቸውም ቀና የሆነ ሁሉ ይከተሉታል።
16ክፉዎችን የሚቋቋምልኝ ማን ነው?
ከክፉ አድራጊዎችስ ጋር የሚሟገትልኝ ማን ነው?
17እግዚአብሔር ረዳቴ ባይሆን ኖሮ፣
ነፍሴ ወደ ዝምታው ዓለም ፈጥና በወረደች ነበር።
18እኔ፣ “እግሬ አዳለጠኝ” ባልሁ ጊዜ፣
እግዚአብሔር ሆይ፤ ምሕረትህ ደግፎ ያዘኝ።
19የውስጤ ጭንቀት በበዛ መጠን፣
ማጽናናትህ ነፍሴን ደስ አሰኛት።
20ዐመፃን ሕጋዊ የሚያደርግ፣
የጥፋት ዙፋን ከአንተ ጋር ሊያብር ይችላልን?
21በጻድቁ ላይ ተሰልፈው ይወጣሉ፤
በንጹሑም ላይ ሞት ይፈርዳሉ።
22ለእኔ ግን እግዚአብሔር ምሽግ፣
አምላኬም መጠጊያ ዐለት ሆኖኛል።
23በደላቸውን ወደ ራሳቸው ይመልሳል፤
በክፋታቸውም ያጠፋቸዋል፤
እግዚአብሔር አምላካችን ይደመስሳቸዋል።
1O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.94.1 God…: Heb. God of revenges94.1 shew…: Heb. shine forth
2Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
3LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
4How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
5They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.
6They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
7Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
8Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
9He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
10He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?
11The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
12Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
13That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
14For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.94.15 shall follow…: Heb. shall be after it
16Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.94.17 almost: or, quickly
18When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
19In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
20Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
23And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.
