< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 40 >
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ اِنْتِظَارًا ٱنْتَظَرْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ، فَمَالَ إِلَيَّ وَسَمِعَ صُرَاخِي، | ١ 1 |
For the end, a Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the Lord; and he attended to me, and hearkened to my supplication.
وَأَصْعَدَنِي مِنْ جُبِّ ٱلْهَلَاكِ، مِنْ طِينِ ٱلْحَمْأَةِ، وَأَقَامَ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ رِجْلَيَّ. ثَبَّتَ خُطُوَاتِي، | ٢ 2 |
And he brought me up out of a pit of misery, and from miry clay: and he set my feet on a rock, and ordered my goings aright.
وَجَعَلَ فِي فَمِي تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً، تَسْبِيحَةً لِإِلَهِنَا. كَثِيرُونَ يَرَوْنَ وَيَخَافُونَ وَيَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٣ 3 |
And he put a new song into my mouth, [even] a hymn to our God: many shall see [it], and fear, and shall hope in the Lord.
طُوبَى لِلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبَّ مُتَّكَلَهُ، وَلَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ إِلَى ٱلْغَطَارِيسِ وَٱلْمُنْحَرِفِينَ إِلَى ٱلْكَذِبِ. | ٤ 4 |
Blessed [is] the man whose hope is in the name of the Lord, and [who] has not regarded vanities and false frenzies.
كَثِيرًا مَا جَعَلْتَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي عَجَائِبَكَ وَأَفْكَارَكَ مِنْ جِهَتِنَا. لَا تُقَوَّمُ لَدَيْكَ. لَأُخْبِرَنَّ وَأَتَكَلَّمَنَّ بِهَا. زَادَتْ عَنْ أَنْ تُعَدَّ. | ٥ 5 |
O Lord my God, thou hast multiplied thy wonderful works, and in thy thoughts there is none who shall be likened to thee: I declared and spoke [of them]: they exceeded number.
بِذَبِيحَةٍ وَتَقْدِمَةٍ لَمْ تُسَرَّ. أُذُنَيَّ فَتَحْتَ. مُحْرَقَةً وَذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيَّةٍ لَمْ تَطْلُبْ. | ٦ 6 |
Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not; but a body hast thou prepared me: whole-burnt-offering and [sacrifice] for sin thou didst not require.
حِينَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «هَأَنَذَا جِئْتُ. بِدَرْجِ ٱلْكِتَابِ مَكْتُوبٌ عَنِّي: | ٧ 7 |
Then I said, Behold, I come: in the volume of the book it is written concerning me,
أَنْ أَفْعَلَ مَشِيئَتَكَ يَا إِلَهِي سُرِرْتُ، وَشَرِيعَتُكَ فِي وَسَطِ أَحْشَائِي». | ٨ 8 |
I desired to do thy will, O my God, and thy law in the midst of mine heart.
بَشَّرْتُ بِبِرٍّ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ. هُوَذَا شَفَتَايَ لَمْ أَمْنَعْهُمَا. أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ عَلِمْتَ. | ٩ 9 |
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation; lo! I will not refrain my lips; O Lord, thou knowest my righteousness.
لَمْ أَكْتُمْ عَدْلَكَ فِي وَسَطِ قَلْبِي. تَكَلَّمْتُ بِأَمَانَتِكَ وَخَلَاصِكَ. لَمْ أُخْفِ رَحْمَتَكَ وَحَقَّكَ عَنِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ. | ١٠ 10 |
I have not hid thy truth within my heart, and I have declared thy salvation; I have not hid thy mercy and thy truth from the great congregation.
أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ فَلَا تَمْنَعْ رَأْفَتَكَ عَنِّي. تَنْصُرُنِي رَحْمَتُكَ وَحَقُّكَ دَائِمًا. | ١١ 11 |
But thou, Lord, remove not thy compassion far from me; thy mercy and thy truth have helped me continually.
لِأَنَّ شُرُورًا لَا تُحْصَى قَدِ ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي. حَاقَتْ بِي آثَامِي، وَلَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُبْصِرَ. كَثُرَتْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ شَعْرِ رَأْسِي، وَقَلْبِي قَدْ تَرَكَنِي. | ١٢ 12 |
For innumerable evils have encompassed me; my transgressions have taken hold of me, and I could not see; they are multiplied more than the hairs of my head; and my heart has failed me.
اِرْتَضِ يَارَبُّ بِأَنْ تُنَجِّيَنِي. يَارَبُّ، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ. | ١٣ 13 |
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; O Lord, draw nigh to help me.
لِيَخْزَ وَلْيَخْجَلْ مَعًا ٱلَّذِينَ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي لِإِهْلَاكِهَا. لِيَرْتَدَّ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، وَلْيَخْزَ ٱلْمَسْرُورُونَ بِأَذِيَّتِي. | ١٤ 14 |
Let those that seek my soul, to destroy it, be ashamed and confounded together; let those that wish me evil be turned backward and put to shame.
لِيَسْتَوْحِشْ مِنْ أَجْلِ خِزْيِهِمِ ٱلْقَائِلُونَ لِي: «هَهْ! هَهْ!». | ١٥ 15 |
Let those that say to me, Aha, aha, quickly receive shame for their reward.
لِيَبْتَهِجْ وَيَفْرَحْ بِكَ جَمِيعُ طَالِبِيكَ مُحِبُّو خَلَاصِكَ: «يَتَعَظَّمُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٦ 16 |
Let all those that seek thee, O Lord, exult and rejoice in thee; and let them that love thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَمِسْكِينٌ وَبَائِسٌ. ٱلرَّبُّ يَهْتَمُّ بِي. عَوْنِي وَمُنْقِذِي أَنْتَ. يَا إِلَهِي لَا تُبْطِئْ. | ١٧ 17 |
But I am poor and needy; the Lord will take care of me; thou art my helper, and my defender, O my God, delay not.
