اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 22

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «أَيِّلَةِ ٱلصُّبْحِ». مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ إِلَهِي، إِلَهِي، لِمَاذَا تَرَكْتَنِي، بَعِيدًا عَنْ خَلَاصِي، عَنْ كَلَامِ زَفِيرِي؟

For the Chief Musician; set to “The Doe of the Morning.” A Psalm by David. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

٢ 2 إِلَهِي، فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ أَدْعُو فَلَا تَسْتَجِيبُ، فِي ٱللَّيْلِ أَدْعُو فَلَا هُدُوَّ لِي.

My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent.

٣ 3 وَأَنْتَ ٱلْقُدُّوسُ ٱلْجَالِسُ بَيْنَ تَسْبِيحَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.

٤ 4 عَلَيْكَ ٱتَّكَلَ آبَاؤُنَا. ٱتَّكَلُوا فَنَجَّيْتَهُمْ.

Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.

٥ 5 إِلَيْكَ صَرَخُوا فَنَجَوْا. عَلَيْكَ ٱتَّكَلُوا فَلَمْ يَخْزَوْا.

They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you, and were not disappointed.

٦ 6 أَمَّا أَنَا فَدُودَةٌ لَا إِنْسَانٌ. عَارٌ عِنْدَ ٱلْبَشَرِ وَمُحْتَقَرُ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised by the people.

٧ 7 كُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَنِي يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ بِي. يَفْغَرُونَ ٱلشِّفَاهَ، وَيُنْغِضُونَ ٱلرَّأْسَ قَائِلِينَ:

All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying,

٨ 8 «ٱتَّكَلَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فَلْيُنَجِّهِ، لِيُنْقِذْهُ لِأَنَّهُ سُرَّ بِهِ».

“He trusts in the LORD. Let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him.”

٩ 9 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ جَذَبْتَنِي مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ. جَعَلْتَنِي مُطْمَئِنًّا عَلَى ثَدْيَيْ أُمِّي.

But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust while at my mother’s breasts.

١٠ 10 عَلَيْكَ أُلْقِيتُ مِنَ ٱلرَّحِمِ. مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّي أَنْتَ إِلَهِي.

I was thrown on you from my mother’s womb. You are my God since my mother bore me.

١١ 11 لَا تَتَبَاعَدْ عَنِّي، لِأَنَّ ٱلضِّيقَ قَرِيبٌ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا مُعِينَ.

Don’t be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is no one to help.

١٢ 12 أَحَاطَتْ بِي ثِيرَانٌ كَثِيرَةٌ. أَقْوِيَاءُ بَاشَانَ ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي.

Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.

١٣ 13 فَغَرُوا عَلَيَّ أَفْوَاهَهُمْ كَأَسَدٍ مُفْتَرِسٍ مُزَمْجِرٍ.

They open their mouths wide against me, lions tearing prey and roaring.

١٤ 14 كَٱلْمَاءِ ٱنْسَكَبْتُ. ٱنْفَصَلَتْ كُلُّ عِظَامِي. صَارَ قَلْبِي كَٱلشَّمْعِ. قَدْ ذَابَ فِي وَسَطِ أَمْعَائِي.

I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melted within me.

١٥ 15 يَبِسَتْ مِثْلَ شَقْفَةٍ قُوَّتِي، وَلَصِقَ لِسَانِي بِحَنَكِي، وَإِلَى تُرَابِ ٱلْمَوْتِ تَضَعُنِي.

My strength is dried up like a potsherd. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You have brought me into the dust of death.

١٦ 16 لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَحَاطَتْ بِي كِلَابٌ. جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي. ثَقَبُوا يَدَيَّ وَرِجْلَيَّ.

For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

١٧ 17 أُحْصِي كُلَّ عِظَامِي، وَهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ وَيَتَفَرَّسُونَ فِيَّ.

I can count all of my bones. They look and stare at me.

١٨ 18 يَقْسِمُونَ ثِيَابِي بَيْنَهُمْ، وَعَلَى لِبَاسِي يَقْتَرِعُونَ.

They divide my garments amongst them. They cast lots for my clothing.

١٩ 19 أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ، فَلَا تَبْعُدْ. يَا قُوَّتِي، أَسْرِعْ إِلَى نُصْرَتِي.

But don’t be far off, LORD. You are my help. Hurry to help me!

٢٠ 20 أَنْقِذْ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ نَفْسِي. مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْكَلْبِ وَحِيدَتِي.

Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of the dog.

٢١ 21 خَلِّصْنِي مِنْ فَمِ ٱلْأَسَدِ، وَمِنْ قُرُونِ بَقَرِ ٱلْوَحْشِ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي.

Save me from the lion’s mouth! Yes, you have rescued me from the horns of the wild oxen.

٢٢ 22 أُخْبِرْ بِٱسْمِكَ إِخْوَتِي. فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ أُسَبِّحُكَ.

I will declare your name to my brothers. Amongst the assembly, I will praise you.

٢٣ 23 يَا خَائِفِي ٱلرَّبِّ سَبِّحُوهُ! مَجِّدُوهُ يَا مَعْشَرَ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَٱخْشَوْهُ يَا زَرْعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ جَمِيعًا!

You who fear the LORD, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!

٢٤ 24 لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَحْتَقِرْ وَلَمْ يُرْذِلْ مَسْكَنَةَ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ، وَلَمْ يَحْجُبْ وَجْهَهُ عَنْهُ، بَلْ عِنْدَ صُرَاخِهِ إِلَيْهِ ٱسْتَمَعَ.

For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

٢٥ 25 مِنْ قِبَلِكَ تَسْبِيحِي فِي ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ. أُوفِي بِنُذُورِي قُدَّامَ خَائِفِيهِ.

My praise of you comes in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

٢٦ 26 يَأْكُلُ ٱلْوُدَعَاءُ وَيَشْبَعُونَ. يُسَبِّحُ ٱلرَّبَّ طَالِبُوهُ. تَحْيَا قُلُوبُكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise the LORD who seek after him. Let your hearts live forever.

٢٧ 27 تَذْكُرُ وَتَرْجِعُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ كُلُّ أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَتَسْجُدُ قُدَّامَكَ كُلُّ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you.

٢٨ 28 لِأَنَّ لِلرَّبِّ ٱلْمُلْكَ، وَهُوَ ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطُ عَلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ.

For the kingdom is the LORD’s. He is the ruler over the nations.

٢٩ 29 أَكَلَ وَسَجَدَ كُلُّ سَمِينِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. قُدَّامَهُ يَجْثُو كُلُّ مَنْ يَنْحَدِرُ إِلَى ٱلتُّرَابِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُحْيِ نَفْسَهُ.

All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive.

٣٠ 30 ٱلذُّرِّيَّةُ تَتَعَبَّدُ لَهُ. يُخَبَّرُ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْجِيلُ ٱلْآتِي.

Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord.

٣١ 31 يَأْتُونَ وَيُخْبِرُونَ بِبِرهِ شَعْبًا سَيُولَدُ بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ فَعَلَ.

They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it.
