اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 41

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ طُوبَى لِلَّذِي يَنْظُرُ إِلَى ٱلْمِسْكِينِ. فِي يَوْمِ ٱلشَّرِّ يُنَجِّيهِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Unto the end, a psalm for David himself. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

٢ 2 ٱلرَّبُّ يَحْفَظُهُ وَيُحْيِيهِ. يَغْتَبِطُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَا يُسَلِّمُهُ إِلَى مَرَامِ أَعْدَائِهِ.

The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.

٣ 3 ٱلرَّبُّ يَعْضُدُهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى فِرَاشِ ٱلضُّعْفِ. مَهَّدْتَ مَضْجَعَهُ كُلَّهُ فِي مَرَضِهِ.

The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.

٤ 4 أَنَا قُلْتُ: «يَارَبُّ ٱرْحَمْنِي. ٱشْفِ نَفْسِي لِأَنِّي قَدْ أَخْطَأْتُ إِلَيْكَ».

I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

٥ 5 أَعْدَائِي يَتَقَاوَلُونَ عَلَيَّ بِشَرٍّ: «مَتَى يَمُوتُ وَيَبِيدُ ٱسْمُهُ؟»

My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?

٦ 6 وَإِنْ دَخَلَ لِيَرَانِي يَتَكَلَّمُ بِٱلْكَذِبِ. قَلْبُهُ يَجْمَعُ لِنَفْسِهِ إِثْمًا. يَخْرُجُ. فِي ٱلْخَارِجِ يَتَكَلَّمُ.

And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose.

٧ 7 كُلُّ مُبْغِضِيَّ يَتَنَاجَوْنَ مَعًا عَلَيَّ. عَلَيَّ تَفَكَّرُوا بِأَذِيَّتِي.

All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.

٨ 8 يَقُولُونَ: «أَمْرٌ رَدِيءٌ قَدِ ٱنْسَكَبَ عَلَيْهِ. حَيْثُ ٱضْطَجَعَ لَا يَعُودُ يَقُومُ».

They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?

٩ 9 أَيْضًا رَجُلُ سَلَامَتِي، ٱلَّذِي وَثِقْتُ بِهِ، آكِلُ خُبْزِي، رَفَعَ عَلَيَّ عَقِبَهُ!

For even the man of peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.

١٠ 10 أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ فَٱرْحَمْنِي وَأَقِمْنِي، فَأُجَازِيَهُمْ.

But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: and I will requite them.

١١ 11 بِهَذَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ سُرِرْتَ بِي، أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَهْتِفْ عَلَيَّ عَدُوِّي.

By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.

١٢ 12 أَمَّا أَنَا فَبِكَمَالِي دَعَمْتَنِي، وَأَقَمْتَنِي قُدَّامَكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: and hast established me in thy sight for ever.

١٣ 13 مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، مِنَ ٱلْأَزَلِ وَإِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. آمِينَ فَآمِينَ.

Blessed by the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it.
