اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 91

١ 1 اَلسَّاكِنُ فِي سِتْرِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، فِي ظِلِّ ٱلْقَدِيرِ يَبِيتُ.

Those who live under the protection of the Most High are kept safe by the Almighty.

٢ 2 أَقُولُ لِلرَّبِّ: «مَلْجَإِي وَحِصْنِي. إِلَهِي فَأَتَّكِلُ عَلَيْهِ».

This is what I say about the Lord: “He is the one who defends and protects me. He is my God, and I trust in him.”

٣ 3 لِأَنَّهُ يُنَجِّيكَ مِنْ فَخِّ ٱلصَّيَّادِ وَمِنَ ٱلْوَبَإِ ٱلْخَطِرِ.

For he will save you from hidden traps and deadly diseases.

٤ 4 بِخَوَافِيهِ يُظَلِّلُكَ، وَتَحْتَ أَجْنِحَتِهِ تَحْتَمِي. تُرْسٌ وَمِجَنٌّ حَقُّهُ.

He will hide you under his feathers, and shelter you with his wings. His trustworthiness shields and protects you.

٥ 5 لَا تَخْشَى مِنْ خَوْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ، وَلَا مِنْ سَهْمٍ يَطِيرُ فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ،

You will not be afraid of terror at night or an arrow that flies in the day,

٦ 6 وَلَا مِنْ وَبَإٍ يَسْلُكُ فِي ٱلدُّجَى، وَلَا مِنْ هَلَاكٍ يُفْسِدُ فِي ٱلظَّهِيرَةِ.

or disease that attacks at night, or catastrophe that falls at noon.

٧ 7 يَسْقُطُ عَنْ جَانِبِكَ أَلْفٌ، وَرِبْوَاتٌ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ. إِلَيْكَ لَا يَقْرُبُ.

A thousand may fall beside you, ten thousand die at your right hand, but you won't be harmed.

٨ 8 إِنَّمَا بِعَيْنَيْكَ تَنْظُرُ وَتَرَى مُجَازَاةَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ.

You only have to open your eyes and you will see how the wicked are repaid.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّكَ قُلْتَ: «أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ مَلْجَإِي». جَعَلْتَ ٱلْعَلِيَّ مَسْكَنَكَ،

Because you have made the Lord your protection, and the Most High your home,

١٠ 10 لَا يُلَاقِيكَ شَرٌّ، وَلَا تَدْنُو ضَرْبَةٌ مِنْ خَيْمَتِكَ.

nothing evil will happen to you; no plague will come near where you live.

١١ 11 لِأَنَّهُ يُوصِي مَلَائِكَتَهُ بِكَ لِكَيْ يَحْفَظُوكَ فِي كُلِّ طُرُقِكَ.

For he will command his angels to take care of you in everything you do.

١٢ 12 عَلَى ٱلْأَيْدِي يَحْمِلُونَكَ لِئَلَّا تَصْدِمَ بِحَجَرٍ رِجْلَكَ.

They will hold you up with their hands so you won't trip and fall down.

١٣ 13 عَلَى ٱلْأَسَدِ وَٱلصِّلِّ تَطَأُ. ٱلشِّبْلَ وَٱلثُّعْبَانَ تَدُوسُ.

You will trample lions and snakes; you will tread young lions and serpents underfoot.

١٤ 14 «لِأَنَّهُ تَعَلَّقَ بِي أُنَجِّيهِ. أُرَفِّعُهُ لِأَنَّهُ عَرَفَ ٱسْمِي.

I will save anyone who loves me; I will protect anyone who accepts me.

١٥ 15 يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُ، مَعَهُ أَنَا فِي ٱلضِّيقِ، أُنْقِذُهُ وَأُمَجِّدُهُ.

When they call out to me for help, I will answer; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will save and honor them.

١٦ 16 مِنْ طُولِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أُشْبِعُهُ، وَأُرِيهِ خَلَاصِي».

I will grant them long lives, and show them my salvation.
