اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 13

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ إِلَى مَتَى يَارَبُّ تَنْسَانِي كُلَّ ٱلنِّسْيَانِ؟ إِلَى مَتَى تَحْجُبُ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي؟

For the music director. A psalm of David. How long, Lord, are you going to forget me? Forever? How long will you turn away from me?

٢ 2 إِلَى مَتَى أَجْعَلُ هُمُومًا فِي نَفْسِي وَحُزْنًا فِي قَلْبِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ؟ إِلَى مَتَى يَرْتَفِعُ عَدُوِّي عَلَيَّ؟

How long must I be in inner turmoil, feeling sad all day long? How long will my enemy be victorious over me?

٣ 3 ٱنْظُرْ وَٱسْتَجِبْ لِي يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي. أَنِرْ عَيْنَيَّ لِئَلَّا أَنَامَ نَوْمَ ٱلْمَوْتِ،

Think about this, and answer me, Lord my God. Give me back my strength, otherwise I'm going to die,

٤ 4 لِئَلَّا يَقُولَ عَدُوِّي: «قَدْ قَوِيتُ عَلَيْهِ». لِئَلَّا يَهْتِفَ مُضَايِقِيَّ بِأَنِّي تَزَعْزَعْتُ.

and my enemy will say, “I defeated him!” and my opponents will celebrate my downfall.

٥ 5 أَمَّا أَنَا فَعَلَى رَحْمَتِكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. يَبْتَهِجُ قَلْبِي بِخَلَاصِكَ.

But I trust in your never-failing love, I will be happy because you save me.

٦ 6 أُغَنِّي لِلرَّبِّ لِأَنَّهُ أَحْسَنَ إِلَيَّ.

I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me with such generosity!
