اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 116

١ 1 أَحْبَبْتُ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَسْمَعُ صَوْتِي، تَضَرُّعَاتِي.

I love Yahweh because he hears my voice and my pleas for mercy.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّهُ أَمَالَ أُذْنَهُ إِلَيَّ فَأَدْعُوهُ مُدَّةَ حَيَاتِي.

Because he listened to me, I will call on him as long as I live.

٣ 3 ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي حِبَالُ ٱلْمَوْتِ. أَصَابَتْنِي شَدَائِدُ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. كَابَدْتُ ضِيقًا وَحُزْنًا. (Sheol h7585)

The cords of death surrounded me, and the snares of Sheol confronted me; I felt anguish and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)

٤ 4 وَبِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ دَعَوْتُ: «آهِ يَارَبُّ، نَجِّ نَفْسِي!».

Then I called on the name of Yahweh: “Please Yahweh, rescue my life.”

٥ 5 ٱلرَّبُّ حَنَّانٌ وَصِدِّيقٌ، وَإِلَهُنَا رَحِيمٌ.

Yahweh is merciful and fair; our God is compassionate.

٦ 6 ٱلرَّبُّ حَافِظُ ٱلْبُسَطَاءِ. تَذَلَّلْتُ فَخَلَّصَنِي.

Yahweh protects the naive; I was brought low, and he saved me.

٧ 7 ٱرْجِعِي يَا نَفْسِي إِلَى رَاحَتِكِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَحْسَنَ إِلَيْكِ.

My soul can return to its resting place, for Yahweh has been good to me.

٨ 8 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْقَذْتَ نَفْسِي مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَعَيْنِي مِنَ ٱلدَّمْعَةِ، وَرِجْلَيَّ مِنَ ٱلزَّلَقِ.

For you rescued my life from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling.

٩ 9 أَسْلُكُ قُدَّامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ.

I will serve Yahweh in the land of the living.

١٠ 10 آمَنْتُ لِذَلِكَ تَكَلَّمْتُ: «أَنَا تَذَلَّلْتُ جِدًّا».

I believed in him, even when I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”

١١ 11 أَنَا قُلْتُ فِي حَيْرَتِي: «كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ كَاذِبٌ».

In my confusion I said, “All men are liars.”

١٢ 12 مَاذَا أَرُدُّ لِلرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ كُلِّ حَسَنَاتِهِ لِي؟

How can I repay Yahweh for all his kindnesses to me?

١٣ 13 كَأْسَ ٱلْخَلَاصِ أَتَنَاوَلُ، وَبِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَدْعُو.

I will raise the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Yahweh.

١٤ 14 أُوفِي نُذُورِي لِلرَّبِّ مُقَابِلَ كُلِّ شَعْبِهِ.

I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh in the presence of all his people.

١٥ 15 عَزِيزٌ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ مَوْتُ أَتْقِيَائِهِ.

Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his saints.

١٦ 16 آهِ يَارَبُّ، لِأَنِّي عَبْدُكَ! أَنَا عَبْدُكَ ٱبْنُ أَمَتِكَ. حَلَلْتَ قُيُودِي.

Yahweh, indeed, I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your servant woman; you have taken away my bonds.

١٧ 17 فَلَكَ أَذْبَحُ ذَبِيحَةَ حَمْدٍ، وَبِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَدْعُو.

I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and will call on the name of Yahweh.

١٨ 18 أُوفِي نُذُورِي لِلرَّبِّ مُقَابِلَ شَعْبِهِ،

I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh in the presence of all his people,

١٩ 19 فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فِي وَسَطِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ. هَلِّلُويَا.

in the courts of Yahweh's house, in your midst, Jerusalem. Praise Yahweh.
