اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 129

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ «كَثِيرًا مَا ضَايَقُونِي مُنْذُ شَبَابِي». لِيَقُلْ إِسْرَائِيلُ:

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

٢ 2 «كَثِيرًا مَا ضَايَقُونِي مُنْذُ شَبَابِي، لَكِنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَيَّ.

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

٣ 3 عَلَى ظَهْرِي حَرَثَ ٱلْحُرَّاثُ. طَوَّلُوا أَتْلَامَهُمْ».

The plowers plowed on my back: they made long their furrows.

٤ 4 ٱلرَّبُّ صِدِّيقٌ. قَطَعَ رُبُطَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ.

The LORD is righteous: he has cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

٥ 5 فَلْيَخْزَ وَلْيَرْتَدَّ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ كُلُّ مُبْغِضِي صِهْيَوْنَ.

Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

٦ 6 لِيَكُونُوا كَعُشْبِ ٱلسُّطُوحِ ٱلَّذِي يَيْبَسُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُقْلَعَ،

Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which wither before it grows up:

٧ 7 ٱلَّذِي لَا يَمْلَأُ ٱلْحَاصِدُ كَفَّهُ مِنْهُ وَلَا ٱلْمُحَزِّمُ حِضْنَهُ.

With which the mower fills not his hand; nor he that binds sheaves his bosom.

٨ 8 وَلَا يَقُولُ ٱلْعَابِرُونَ: «بَرَكَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ. بَارَكْنَاكُمْ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ».

Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be on you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
