< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 143 >
مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ يَارَبُّ، ٱسْمَعْ صَلَاتِي، وَأَصْغِ إِلَى تَضَرُّعَاتِي. بِأَمَانَتِكَ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي، بِعَدْلِكَ. | ١ 1 |
A Psalm of David, when his son pursued him. O Lord, attend to my prayer: listen to my supplication in your truth; hear me in your righteousness.
وَلَا تَدْخُلْ فِي ٱلْمُحَاكَمَةِ مَعَ عَبْدِكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَتَبَرَّرَ قُدَّامَكَ حَيٌّ. | ٢ 2 |
And enter not into judgement with your servant, for in your sight shall no [man] living be justified.
لِأَنَّ ٱلْعَدُوَّ قَدِ ٱضْطَهَدَ نَفْسِي. سَحَقَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ حَيَاتِي. أَجْلَسَنِي فِي ٱلظُّلُمَاتِ مِثْلَ ٱلْمَوْتَى مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ. | ٣ 3 |
For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has brought my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in a dark [place], as those that have been long dead.
أَعْيَتْ فِيَّ رُوحِي. تَحَيَّرَ فِي دَاخِلِي قَلْبِي. | ٤ 4 |
Therefore my spirit was grieved in me; my heart was troubled within me.
تَذَكَّرْتُ أَيَّامَ ٱلْقِدَمِ. لَهِجْتُ بِكُلِّ أَعْمَالِكَ. بِصَنَائِعِ يَدَيْكَ أَتَأَمَّلُ. | ٥ 5 |
I remembered the days of old; and I meditated on all your doings: [yes], I meditated on the works of your hands.
بَسَطْتُ إِلَيْكَ يَدَيَّ، نَفْسِي نَحْوَكَ كَأَرْضٍ يَابِسَةٍ. سِلَاهْ. | ٦ 6 |
I spread forth my hands to you; my soul [thirsts] for you, as a dry land. (Pause)
أَسْرِعْ أَجِبْنِي يَارَبُّ. فَنِيَتْ رُوحِي. لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي، فَأُشْبِهَ ٱلْهَابِطِينَ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ. | ٧ 7 |
Hear me speedily, O Lord; my spirit has failed; turn not away your face from me, else I shall be like to them that go down to the pit.
أَسْمِعْنِي رَحْمَتَكَ فِي ٱلْغَدَاةِ، لِأَنِّي عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. عَرِّفْنِي ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّتِي أَسْلُكُ فِيهَا، لِأَنِّي إِلَيْكَ رَفَعْتُ نَفْسِي. | ٨ 8 |
Cause me to hear your mercy in the morning; for I have hoped in you; make known to me, O Lord, the way wherein I should walk; for I have lifted up my soul to you.
أَنْقِذْنِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِي يَارَبُّ. إِلَيْكَ ٱلْتَجَأْتُ. | ٩ 9 |
Deliver me from mine enemies, O Lord; for I have fled to you for refuge.
عَلِّمْنِي أَنْ أَعْمَلَ رِضَاكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي. رُوحُكَ ٱلصَّالِحُ يَهْدِينِي فِي أَرْضٍ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
Teach me to do your will; for you are my God; your good Spirit shall guide me in the straight [way].
مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِكَ يَارَبُّ تُحْيِينِي. بِعَدْلِكَ تُخْرِجُ مِنَ ٱلضِّيقِ نَفْسِي، | ١١ 11 |
You shall quicken me, O Lord, for your name's sake; in your righteousness you shall bring my soul out of affliction.
وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ تَسْتَأْصِلُ أَعْدَائِي، وَتُبِيدُ كُلَّ مُضَايِقِي نَفْسِي، لِأَنِّي أَنَا عَبْدُكَ. | ١٢ 12 |
And in your mercy you will destroy mine enemies, and will destroy all those that afflict my soul; for I am your servant.
