SVD Arabic Bible: Smith–Van Dyck (1865)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 تَسْبِيحَةٌ. مَزْمُورٌ لِآسَافَ اَللَّهُمَّ، لَا تَصْمُتْ. لَا تَسْكُتْ وَلَا تَهْدَأْ يَاٱللهُ.
1 A song. A Psalm by Asaph. God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
2 فَهُوَذَا أَعْدَاؤُكَ يَعِجُّونَ، وَمُبْغِضُوكَ قَدْ رَفَعُوا ٱلرَّأْسَ.
2 For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
3 عَلَى شَعْبِكَ مَكَرُوا مُؤَامَرَةً، وَتَشَاوَرُوا عَلَى أَحْمِيَائِكَ.
3 They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
4 قَالُوا: «هَلُمَّ نُبِدْهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَلَا يُذْكَرُ ٱسْمُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدُ».
4 “Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
5 لِأَنَّهُمْ تَآمَرُوا بِٱلْقَلْبِ مَعًا. عَلَيْكَ تَعَاهَدُوا عَهْدًا.
5 For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.
6 خِيَامُ أَدُومَ وَٱلْإِسْمَاعِيلِيِّينَ، مُوآبُ وَٱلْهَاجَرِيُّونَ.
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
7 جِبَالُ وَعَمُّونُ وَعَمَالِيقُ، فَلَسْطِينُ مَعَ سُكَّانِ صُورٍ.
7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 أَشُّورُ أَيْضًا ٱتَّفَقَ مَعَهُمْ. صَارُوا ذِرَاعًا لِبَنِي لُوطٍ. سِلَاهْ.
8 Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
9 اِفْعَلْ بِهِمْ كَمَا بِمِدْيَانَ، كَمَا بِسِيسَرَا، كَمَا بِيَابِينَ فِي وَادِي قِيشُونَ.
9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
10 بَادُوا فِي عَيْنِ دُورٍ. صَارُوا دِمَنًا لِلْأَرْضِ.
10 who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
11 ٱجْعَلْهُمْ، شُرَفَاءَهُمْ مِثْلَ غُرَابٍ، وَمِثْلَ ذِئْبٍ. وَمِثْلَ زَبَحَ، وَمِثْلَ صَلْمُنَّاعَ كُلَّ أُمَرَائِهِمْ.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوا: «لِنَمْتَلِكْ لِأَنْفُسِنَا مَسَاكِنَ ٱللهِ».
12 who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
13 يَا إِلَهِي، ٱجْعَلْهُمْ مِثْلَ ٱلْجُلِّ، مِثْلَ ٱلْقَشِّ أَمَامَ ٱلرِّيحِ.
13 My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.
14 كَنَارٍ تَحْرِقُ ٱلْوَعْرَ، كَلَهِيبٍ يُشْعِلُ ٱلْجِبَالَ.
14 As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,
15 هَكَذَا ٱطْرُدْهُمْ بِعَاصِفَتِكَ، وَبِزَوْبَعَتِكَ رَوِّعْهُمْ.
15 so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.
16 ٱمْلَأْ وُجُوهَهُمْ خِزْيًا، فَيَطْلُبُوا ٱسْمَكَ يَارَبُّ.
16 Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, Yahweh.
17 لِيَخْزَوْا وَيَرْتَاعُوا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَلْيَخْجَلُوا وَيَبِيدُوا،
17 Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
18 وَيَعْلَمُوا أَنَّكَ ٱسْمُكَ يَهْوَهُ وَحْدَكَ، ٱلْعَلِيُّ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.
18 that they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm LXXXII)

    This Psalm, like others similarly named, was so entitled either from the name of the man who wrote it, or from the explanation of that same name, so as to refer in meaning to the Synagogue, which Asaph signifies; especially as this is intimated in the first verse. For it begins, "God stood in the synagogue of gods" (ver. 1).

  2. Quotes verse 83:16 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XIV, Chapters 12–13)

    And this is averred by the sacred Psalmist when he says, "Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek Thy name, O Lord;" that is, that they who have pleased themselves in seeking their own glory may be pleased and satisfied with Thee in seeking Thy glory.

  3. Quotes verse 83:3 John of Damascus, An Exact Exposition of the Orthodox Faith (Book III, Chapters XII–XIV)

    Sometimes it signifies exhortation: as when the divine apostle says, Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord; yet I give my judgment: sometimes it means counsel, as when the prophet David says, They have taken crafty counsel against Thy people: sometimes it means a decree, as when we read in Daniel, Concerning whom (or, what) went …
