1Дирижеру хора. На мотив«Не погуби». Псалом Асафа. Песнь.2Благодарим Тебя, Боже, благодарим, потому что близко Твое имя; возвещают люди чудеса Твои.3Ты сказал: «В назначенный срок Я буду судить справедливо.4Когда колеблется земля и все живущие на ней, Я удерживаю ее на столпах ее». Пауза5Я сказал гордецам: «Не превозноситесь» – и нечестивым: «Не поднимайте рога[1].6Не кичитесь своей мощью перед небом, не говорите надменно».7Ни с востока, ни с запада, ни с пустыни не стоит ожидать возвышения.8Но Бог – судья: Он одного унижает, а другого возвышает.9В руке Господа – чаша с кипящим вином, полным горьких приправ, и Он льет из нее. Всем беззаконным земли придется испить чашу эту до дна.10Я буду возвещать это вечно, буду воспевать Бога Иакова,11«Все роги нечестивых сломлю, и вознесутся роги праведных».
Psalm 74
English Standard Version
Arise, O God, Defend Your Cause
1A Maskil[1] of Asaph. O God, why do you cast us off forever? Why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture? (5Mo 29,20; Ps 18,8; Ps 44,9; Ps 50,1; Ps 79,13; Ps 95,7; Ps 100,3; Jer 23,1; Hes 34,31)2Remember your congregation, which you have purchased of old, which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your heritage! Remember Mount Zion, where you have dwelt. (2Mo 15,16; 5Mo 32,6; Ps 9,11; Ps 74,18; Ps 74,22; Ps 77,15; Ps 78,54; Jes 63,9; Jes 63,17; Jer 10,16; Jer 51,19)3Direct your steps to the perpetual ruins; the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary! (Jes 61,4)4Your foes have roared in the midst of your meeting place; they set up their own signs for signs. (4Mo 2,2; Ps 74,9; Kla 2,6; Mt 24,15)5They were like those who swing axes in a forest of trees.[2] (Jer 46,22)6And all its carved wood they broke down with hatchets and hammers. (1Kön 6,18; 1Kön 6,29; 1Kön 6,32; 1Kön 6,35)7They set your sanctuary on fire; they profaned the dwelling place of your name, bringing it down to the ground. (2Kön 25,9; Ps 26,8; Ps 79,1; Ps 89,39; Kla 2,2)8They said to themselves, “We will utterly subdue them”; they burned all the meeting places of God in the land. (Ps 83,4)9We do not see our signs; there is no longer any prophet, and there is none among us who knows how long. (1Sam 3,1; Ps 74,4; Kla 2,9; Hes 7,26; Am 8,11)10How long, O God, is the foe to scoff? Is the enemy to revile your name forever? (Ps 74,18; Ps 74,22; Ps 79,12; Ps 89,51)11Why do you hold back your hand, your right hand? Take it from the fold of your garment[3] and destroy them! (Kla 2,3)12Yet God my King is from of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth. (Ps 44,4)13You divided the sea by your might; you broke the heads of the sea monsters[4] on the waters. (2Mo 14,21; Jes 27,1; Jes 51,9)14You crushed the heads of Leviathan; you gave him as food for the creatures of the wilderness. (Hi 41,1)15You split open springs and brooks; you dried up ever-flowing streams. (2Mo 14,21; 2Mo 17,5; 4Mo 20,11; Jos 2,10; Jos 3,13; Jos 4,23; Ps 66,6; Ps 78,15; Ps 105,41; Jes 48,21; Jes 51,10)16Yours is the day, yours also the night; you have established the heavenly lights and the sun. (1Mo 1,14; Ps 104,19)17You have fixed all the boundaries of the earth; you have made summer and winter. (1Mo 8,22; 5Mo 32,8; Apg 17,26)18Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffs, and a foolish people reviles your name. (5Mo 32,6; Ps 39,8; Ps 74,2; Ps 74,22; Ps 89,50; Offb 16,19; Offb 18,5)19Do not deliver the soul of your dove to the wild beasts; do not forget the life of your poor forever. (Ps 68,10; Hl 2,14)20Have regard for the covenant, for the dark places of the land are full of the habitations of violence. (1Mo 17,7; 3Mo 26,44; Ps 10,8; Ps 106,45; Jer 33,21)21Let not the downtrodden turn back in shame; let the poor and needy praise your name. (Ps 6,10; Ps 9,9; Ps 10,18; Ps 86,1)22Arise, O God, defend your cause; remember how the foolish scoff at you all the day! (1Sam 24,15; Ps 74,2; Ps 74,18)23Do not forget the clamor of your foes, the uproar of those who rise against you, which goes up continually! (Ps 65,7)
