اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 63
| 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، | ١ 1 |
A Melody of David. When he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, my GOD, thou art, Earnestly do I desire thee, —My soul thirsteth for thee, My flesh fainteth for thee, In a land—dry, and weary for want of water, —
| لِكَيْ أُبْصِرَ قُوَّتَكَ وَمَجْدَكَ. كَمَا قَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ فِي قُدْسِكَ. | ٢ 2 |
In like manner as, in the sanctuary, I have had vision of thee, To behold thy power and thy glory.
| لِأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. شَفَتَايَ تُسَبِّحَانِكَ. | ٣ 3 |
Because better is thy lovingkindness than life, My lips, aloud shall praise thee!
| هَكَذَا أُبَارِكُكَ فِي حَيَاتِي. بِٱسْمِكَ أَرْفَعُ يَدَيَّ. | ٤ 4 |
Thus, will I bless thee while I live, In thy Name, will I lift up mine outspread hands:
| كَمَا مِنْ شَحْمٍ وَدَسَمٍ تَشْبَعُ نَفْسِي، وَبِشَفَتَيْ ٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ يُسَبِّحُكَ فَمِي. | ٥ 5 |
As with fatness and richness, shall my soul be satisfied, And, with joyfully shouting lips, shall my mouth utter praise.
| إِذَا ذَكَرْتُكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِي، فِي ٱلسُّهْدِ أَلْهَجُ بِكَ، | ٦ 6 |
Should I call thee to mind upon my couch, In the watches of the night, would I breathe soft speech of thee.
| لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَوْنًا لِي، وَبِظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ أَبْتَهِجُ. | ٧ 7 |
For thou hast become a help unto me, —And, in the shadow of thy wings, will I shout for joy.
| اِلْتَصَقَتْ نَفْسِي بِكَ. يَمِينُكَ تَعْضُدُنِي. | ٨ 8 |
My soul hath run clinging to thee, On me, hath thy right hand laid hold.
| أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلتَّهْلُكَةِ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي، فَيَدْخُلُونَ فِي أَسَافِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٩ 9 |
When, they, to crush it, would seek my life, They shall go into the lower parts of the earth:
| يُدْفَعُونَ إِلَى يَدَيِ ٱلسَّيْفِ. يَكُونُونَ نَصِيبًا لِبَنَاتِ آوَى. | ١٠ 10 |
Every one shall be given up into the power of the sword, The portion of jackals, shall they become.
| أَمَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ فَيَفْرَحُ بِٱللهِ. يَفْتَخِرُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَحْلِفُ بِهِ، لِأَنَّ أَفْوَاهَ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ تُسَدُّ. | ١١ 11 |
But, the king, shall rejoice in God, —Every one shall glory who sweareth by him, For the mouth of them who speak falsehood, shall be stopped.
