< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 16 >
مُذَهَّبَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ اِحْفَظْنِي يَا ٱللهُ لِأَنِّي عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. | ١ 1 |
A michtam of David. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in you.
قُلْتُ لِلرَّبِّ: «أَنْتَ سَيِّدِي. خَيْرِي لَا شَيْءَ غَيْرُكَ». | ٢ 2 |
I say to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; my goodness is nothing apart from you.
ٱلْقِدِّيسُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلْأَفَاضِلُ كُلُّ مَسَرَّتِي بِهِمْ. | ٣ 3 |
As for the holy people who are on the earth, they are noble people; all my delight is in them.
تَكْثُرُ أَوْجَاعُهُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسْرَعُوا وَرَاءَ آخَرَ. لَا أَسْكُبُ سَكَائِبَهُمْ مِنْ دَمٍ، وَلَا أَذْكُرُ أَسْمَاءَهُمْ بِشَفَتَيَّ. | ٤ 4 |
Their troubles will be increased, those who seek out other gods. I will not pour out drink offerings of blood to their gods or lift up their names with my lips.
ٱلرَّبُّ نَصِيبُ قِسْمَتِي وَكَأْسِي. أَنْتَ قَابِضُ قُرْعَتِي. | ٥ 5 |
Yahweh, you are my chosen portion and my cup. You hold onto my lot.
حِبَالٌ وَقَعَتْ لِي فِي ٱلنُّعَمَاءِ، فَٱلْمِيرَاثُ حَسَنٌ عِنْدِي. | ٦ 6 |
Measuring lines have been laid for me in pleasant places; surely a pleasing inheritance is mine.
أُبَارِكُ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلَّذِي نَصَحَنِي، وَأَيْضًا بِٱللَّيْلِ تُنْذِرُنِي كُلْيَتَايَ. | ٧ 7 |
I will bless Yahweh, who counsels me; even at night my mind instructs me.
جَعَلْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ أَمَامِي فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ، لِأَنَّهُ عَنْ يَمِينِي فَلَا أَتَزَعْزَعُ. | ٨ 8 |
I set Yahweh before me at all times, so I will not be shaken from his right hand!
لِذَلِكَ فَرِحَ قَلْبِي، وَٱبْتَهَجَتْ رُوحِي. جَسَدِي أَيْضًا يَسْكُنُ مُطْمَئِنًّا. | ٩ 9 |
Therefore my heart is glad; my glory is rejoicing. Surely I will live in security.
لِأَنَّكَ لَنْ تَتْرُكَ نَفْسِي فِي ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. لَنْ تَدَعَ تَقِيَّكَ يَرَى فَسَادًا. (Sheol ) | ١٠ 10 |
For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol. You will not let your faithful one see the pit. (Sheol )
تُعَرِّفُنِي سَبِيلَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. أَمَامَكَ شِبَعُ سُرُورٍ. فِي يَمِينِكَ نِعَمٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ١١ 11 |
You teach me the path of life; abundant joy resides in your presence; delights abide in your right hand forever!”
