< المَزامِير 12 >
لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى الْقَرَارِ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ أَغِثْ يَا رَبُّ لأَنَّهُ قَدِ انْقَرَضَ التَّقِيُّ، وَاخْتَفَى الأُمَنَاءُ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي الْبَشَرِ. | ١ 1 |
To the Overseer, on the octave. — A Psalm of David. Save, Jehovah, for the saintly hath failed, For the stedfast have ceased From the sons of men:
كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يُخَاطِبُ صَاحِبَهُ بِالْبَاطِلِ: بِشِفَاهٍ مَلِقَةٍ وَقُلُوبٍ مُنَافِقَةٍ يَتَحَادَثُونَ. | ٢ 2 |
Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak.
يَقْطَعُ الرَّبُّ كُلَّ الشِّفَاهِ الْمَلِقَةِ، وَكُلَّ لِسَانٍ مُتَبَجِّحٍ. | ٣ 3 |
Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue speaking great things,
الَّذِينَ قَالُوا: أَلْسِنَتُنَا لَنَا وَبِهَا نَسُودُ. فَمَنْ يَتَحَكَّمُ فِينَا؟ | ٤ 4 |
Who said, 'By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips [are] our own; who [is] lord over us?'
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَقُولُ: إِنْقَاذاً لِلْمَسَاكِينِ، وَاسْتِجَابَةً لِتَنَهُّدَاتِ الْمَظْلُومِينَ، أَهُبُّ الآنَ لأُفَرِّجَ كُرْبَةَ الْمُتَضَايِقِينَ. | ٥ 5 |
Because of the spoiling of the poor, Because of the groaning of the needy, Now do I arise, saith Jehovah, I set in safety [him who] doth breathe for it.
أَقْوَالُ الرَّبِّ خَالِصَةٌ لَا شَائِبَةَ فِيهَا، كالْفِضَّةِ الْمُنَقَّاةِ الْمُصَفَّاةِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي بَوتَقَةٍ مُحَمَّاةٍ. | ٦ 6 |
Sayings of Jehovah [are] pure sayings; Silver tried in a furnace of earth refined sevenfold.
أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ تَحْفَظُ الأَبْرَارَ، وَتَقِيهِمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ مِنْ جِيلِ الأَشْرَارِ. | ٧ 7 |
Thou, O Jehovah, dost preserve them, Thou keepest us from this generation to the age.
يَتَجَوَّلُ الأَشْرَارُ أَحْرَاراً فِي كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ، عِنْدَمَا يَتَبَوَّأُ أَرَاذِلُ النَّاسِ الْمَقَامَاتِ الرَّفِيعَةَ. | ٨ 8 |
Around the wicked walk continually, According as vileness is exalted by sons of men!
