اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 63

١ 1 مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ يَهُوذَا يَا ٱللهُ، إِلَهِي أَنْتَ. إِلَيْكَ أُبَكِّرُ. عَطِشَتْ إِلَيْكَ نَفْسِي، يَشْتَاقُ إِلَيْكَ جَسَدِي فِي أَرْضٍ نَاشِفَةٍ وَيَابِسَةٍ بِلَا مَاءٍ،

O God, you are my God; early will I seek you: my soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

٢ 2 لِكَيْ أُبْصِرَ قُوَّتَكَ وَمَجْدَكَ. كَمَا قَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ فِي قُدْسِكَ.

To see your power and your glory, so as I have seen you in the sanctuary.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. شَفَتَايَ تُسَبِّحَانِكَ.

Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

٤ 4 هَكَذَا أُبَارِكُكَ فِي حَيَاتِي. بِٱسْمِكَ أَرْفَعُ يَدَيَّ.

Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.

٥ 5 كَمَا مِنْ شَحْمٍ وَدَسَمٍ تَشْبَعُ نَفْسِي، وَبِشَفَتَيْ ٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ يُسَبِّحُكَ فَمِي.

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips:

٦ 6 إِذَا ذَكَرْتُكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِي، فِي ٱلسُّهْدِ أَلْهَجُ بِكَ،

When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night watches.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَوْنًا لِي، وَبِظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ أَبْتَهِجُ.

Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.

٨ 8 اِلْتَصَقَتْ نَفْسِي بِكَ. يَمِينُكَ تَعْضُدُنِي.

My soul follows hard after you: your right hand upholds me.

٩ 9 أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلتَّهْلُكَةِ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي، فَيَدْخُلُونَ فِي أَسَافِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

١٠ 10 يُدْفَعُونَ إِلَى يَدَيِ ٱلسَّيْفِ. يَكُونُونَ نَصِيبًا لِبَنَاتِ آوَى.

They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

١١ 11 أَمَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ فَيَفْرَحُ بِٱللهِ. يَفْتَخِرُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَحْلِفُ بِهِ، لِأَنَّ أَفْوَاهَ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ تُسَدُّ.

But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
