اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 37

١ 1 لِدَاوُدَ لَا تَغَرْ مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَلَا تَحْسِدْ عُمَّالَ ٱلْإِثْمِ،

To Dauith. Nile thou sue wickid men; nether loue thou men doynge wickidnesse.

٢ 2 فَإِنَّهُمْ مِثْلَ ٱلْحَشِيشِ سَرِيعًا يُقْطَعُونَ، وَمِثْلَ ٱلْعُشْبِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ يَذْبُلُونَ.

For thei schulen wexe drie swiftli as hey; and thei schulen falle doun soone as the wortis of eerbis.

٣ 3 ٱتَّكِلْ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱفْعَلِ ٱلْخَيْرَ. ٱسْكُنِ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱرْعَ ٱلْأَمَانَةَ.

Hope thou in the Lord, and do thou goodnesse; and enhabite thou the lond, and thou schalt be fed with hise richessis.

٤ 4 وَتَلَذَّذْ بِٱلرَّبِّ فَيُعْطِيَكَ سُؤْلَ قَلْبِكَ.

Delite thou in the Lord; and he schal yyue to thee the axyngis of thin herte.

٥ 5 سَلِّمْ لِلرَّبِّ طَرِيقَكَ وَٱتَّكِلْ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُجْرِي،

Schewe thi weie to the Lord; and hope thou in hym, and he schal do.

٦ 6 وَيُخْرِجُ مِثْلَ ٱلنُّورِ بِرَّكَ، وَحَقَّكَ مِثْلَ ٱلظَّهِيرَةِ.

And he schal lede out thi riytfulnesse as liyt, and thi doom as myddai;

٧ 7 ٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ وَٱصْبِرْ لَهُ، وَلَا تَغَرْ مِنَ ٱلَّذِي يَنْجَحُ فِي طَرِيقِهِ، مِنَ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلْمُجْرِي مَكَايِدَ.

be thou suget to the Lord, and preye thou hym. Nile thou sue hym, that hath prosperite in his weie; a man doynge vnriytfulnessis.

٨ 8 كُفَّ عَنِ ٱلْغَضَبِ، وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلسَّخَطَ، وَلَا تَغَرْ لِفِعْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ،

Ceese thou of ire, and forsake woodnesse; nyle thou sue, that thou do wickidli.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّ عَامِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ يُقْطَعُونَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَنْتَظِرُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ هُمْ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ.

For thei, that doen wickidli, schulen be distried; but thei that suffren the Lord, schulen enerite the lond.

١٠ 10 بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍلَا يَكُونُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ تَطَّلِعُ فِي مَكَانِهِ فَلَا يَكُونُ.

And yit a litil, and a synnere schal not be; and thou schalt seke his place, and schalt not fynde.

١١ 11 أَمَّا ٱلْوُدَعَاءُ فَيَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَيَتَلَذَّذُونَ فِي كَثْرَةِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ.

But mylde men schulen enerite the lond; and schulen delite in the multitude of pees.

١٢ 12 ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَتَفَكَّرُ ضِدَّ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ وَيُحَرِّقُ عَلَيْهِ أَسْنَانَهُ.

A synnere schal aspie a riytful man; and he schal gnaste with hise teeth on hym.

١٣ 13 ٱلرَّبُّ يَضْحَكُ بِهِ لِأَنَّهُ رَأَى أَنَّ يَوْمَهُ آتٍ!

But the Lord schal scorne the synnere; for he biholdith that his day cometh.

١٤ 14 ٱلْأَشْرَارُ قَدْ سَلُّوا ٱلسَّيْفَ وَمَدُّوا قَوْسَهُمْ لِرَمْيِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ وَٱلْفَقِيرِ، لِقَتْلِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِ طَرِيقُهُمْ.

Synners drowen out swerd; thei benten her bouwe. To disseyue a pore man and nedi; to strangle riytful men of herte.

١٥ 15 سَيْفُهُمْ يَدْخُلُ فِي قَلْبِهِمْ، وَقِسِيُّهُمْ تَنْكَسِرُ.

Her swerd entre in to the herte of hem silf; and her bouwe be brokun.

١٦ 16 اَلْقَلِيلُ ٱلَّذِي لِلصِّدِّيقِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ثَرْوَةِ أَشْرَارٍ كَثِيرِينَ.

Betere is a litil thing to a iust man; than many richessis of synneris.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّ سَوَاعِدَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ تَنْكَسِرُ، وَعَاضِدُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ ٱلرَّبُّ.

For the armes of synneris schal be al to-brokun; but the Lord confermeth iust men.

١٨ 18 ٱلرَّبُّ عَارِفٌ أَيَّامَ ٱلْكَمَلَةِ، وَمِيرَاثُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَكُونُ.

The Lord knowith the daies of vnwemmed; and her heritage schal be withouten ende.

١٩ 19 لَا يُخْزَوْنَ فِي زَمَنِ ٱلسُّوءِ، وَفِي أَيَّامِ ٱلْجُوعِ يَشْبَعُونَ.

Thei schulen not be schent in the yuel tyme, and thei schulen be fillid in the dayes of hungur;

٢٠ 20 لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَشْرَارَ يَهْلِكُونَ، وَأَعْدَاءُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَبَهَاءِ ٱلْمَرَاعِي. فَنُوا. كَٱلدُّخَانِ فَنُوا.

for synneris schulen perische. Forsothe anoon as the enemyes of the Lord ben onourid, and enhaunsid; thei failynge schulen faile as smoke.

٢١ 21 ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَسْتَقْرِضُ وَلَا يَفِي، أَمَّا ٱلصِّدِّيقُ فَيَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُعْطِي.

A synnere schal borewe, and schal not paie; but a iust man hath merci, and schal yyue.

٢٢ 22 لِأَنَّ ٱلْمُبَارَكِينَ مِنْهُ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَٱلْمَلْعُونِينَ مِنْهُ يُقْطَعُونَ.

For thei that blessen the Lord schulen enerite the lond; but thei that cursen hym schulen perische.

٢٣ 23 مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَتَثَبَّتُ خَطَوَاتُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ وَفِي طَرِيقِهِ يُسَرُّ.

The goyng of a man schal be dressid anentis the Lord; and he schal wilne his weie.

٢٤ 24 إِذَا سَقَطَ لَا يَنْطَرِحُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُسْنِدٌ يَدَهُ.

Whanne he fallith, he schal not be hurtlid doun; for the Lord vndursettith his hond.

٢٥ 25 أَيْضًا كُنْتُ فَتىً وَقَدْ شِخْتُ، وَلَمْ أَرَ صِدِّيقًا تُخُلِّيَ عَنْهُ، وَلَا ذُرِّيَّةً لَهُ تَلْتَمِسُ خُبْزًا.

I was yongere, and sotheli Y wexide eld, and Y siy not a iust man forsakun; nethir his seed sekynge breed.

٢٦ 26 ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُقْرِضُ، وَنَسْلُهُ لِلْبَرَكَةِ.

Al dai he hath merci, and leeneth; and his seed schal be in blessyng.

٢٧ 27 حِدْ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱفْعَلِ ٱلْخَيْرَ، وَٱسْكُنْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

Bouwe thou awei fro yuel, and do good; and dwelle thou in to the world of world.

٢٨ 28 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُحِبُّ ٱلْحَقَّ، وَلَا يَتَخَلَّى عَنْ أَتْقِيَائِهِ. إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يُحْفَظُونَ. أَمَّا نَسْلُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَيَنْقَطِعُ.

For the Lord loueth doom, and schal not forsake hise seyntis; thei schulen be kept with outen ende. Vniust men schulen be punyschid; and the seed of wickid men schal perische.

٢٩ 29 ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَيَسْكُنُونَهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

But iust men schulen enerite the lond; and schulen enabite theronne in to the world of world.

٣٠ 30 فَمُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ يَلْهَجُ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ، وَلِسَانُهُ يَنْطِقُ بِٱلْحَقِّ.

The mouth of a iust man schal bithenke wisdom; and his tunge schal speke doom.

٣١ 31 شَرِيعَةُ إِلَهِهِ فِي قَلْبِهِ. لَا تَتَقَلْقَلُ خَطَوَاتُهُ.

The lawe of his God is in his herte; and hise steppis schulen not be disseyued.

٣٢ 32 ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يُرَاقِبُ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ مُحَاوِلًا أَنْ يُمِيتَهُ.

A synnere biholdith a iust man; and sekith to sle hym.

٣٣ 33 ٱلرَّبُّ لَا يَتْرُكُهُ فِي يَدِهِ، وَلَا يَحْكُمُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ مُحَاكَمَتِهِ.

But the Lord schal not forsake hym in hise hondis; nethir schal dampne hym, whanne it schal be demed ayens hym.

٣٤ 34 ٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ وَٱحْفَظْ طَرِيقَهُ، فَيَرْفَعَكَ لِتَرِثَ ٱلْأَرْضَ. إِلَى ٱنْقِرَاضِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ تَنْظُرُ.

Abide thou the Lord, and kepe thou his weie, and he schal enhaunse thee, that bi eritage thou take the lond; whanne synneris schulen perische, thou schalt se.

٣٥ 35 قَدْ رَأَيْتُ ٱلشِّرِّيرَ عَاتِيًا، وَارِفًا مِثْلَ شَجَرَةٍ شَارِقَةٍ نَاضِرَةٍ.

I siy a wickid man enhaunsid aboue; and reisid vp as the cedris of Liban.

٣٦ 36 عَبَرَ فَإِذَا هُوَ لَيْسَ بِمَوْجُودٍ، وَٱلْتَمَسْتُهُ فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ.

And Y passide, and lo! he was not; Y souyte hym, and his place is not foundun.

٣٧ 37 لَاحِظِ ٱلْكَامِلَ وَٱنْظُرِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَإِنَّ ٱلْعَقِبَ لِإِنْسَانِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ.

Kepe thou innocence, and se equite; for tho ben relikis to a pesible man.

٣٨ 38 أَمَّا ٱلْأَشْرَارُ فَيُبَادُونَ جَمِيعًا. عَقِبُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَنْقَطِعُ.

Forsothe vniust men schulen perische; the relifs of wickid men schulen perische togidere.

٣٩ 39 أَمَّا خَلَاصُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ فَمِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، حِصْنِهمْ فِي زَمَانِ ٱلضِّيقِ.

But the helthe of iust men is of the Lord; and he is her defendere in the tyme of tribulacioun.

٤٠ 40 وَيُعِينُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَيُنَجِّيهِمْ. يُنْقِذُهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ وَيُخَلِّصُهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمُ ٱحْتَمَوْا بِهِ.

And the Lord schal helpe hem, and schal make hem fre, and he schal delyuere hem fro synneris; and he schal saue hem, for thei hopiden in hym.
