لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ. لِعَبْدِ الرَّبِّ دَاوُدَ. قَصِيدَةٌ خَاطَبَ بِها الرَّبَّ يَوْمَ أَنْقَذَهُ مِنْ قَبْضَةِ كُلِّ أَعْدَائِهِ وَمِنْ يَدِ شَاوُلَ. فَقَالَ: أُحِبُّكَ يَا رَبُّ، يَا قُوَّتِي. ١ 1
To the Overseer. — By a servant of Jehovah, by David, who hath spoken to Jehovah the words of this song in the day Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul, and he saith: — I love Thee, O Jehovah, my strength.
الرَّبُّ صَخْرَتِي وَحِصْنِي وَمُنْقِذِي. إِلَهِي صَخْرَتِي بِهِ أَحْتَمِي. تُرْسِي وَرُكْنُ خَلاصِي، وَقَلْعَتِي الْحَصِينَةُ. ٢ 2
Jehovah [is] my rock, and my bulwark, And my deliverer, My God [is] my rock, I trust in Him: My shield, and a horn of my salvation, My high tower.
أَدْعُو الرَّبَّ الْجَدِيرَ بِكُلِّ حَمْدٍ فَيُخَلِّصُنِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِي. ٣ 3
The 'Praised One' I call Jehovah, And from my enemies I am saved.
قَدْ أَحْدَقَتْ بِي حِبَالُ الْمَوْتِ، وَأَفْزَعَتْنِي سُيُولُ الْهَلاكِ. ٤ 4
Compassed me have cords of death, And streams of the worthless make me afraid.
أَحَاطَتْ بِي حِبَالُ الْهَاوِيَةِ، وَأَطْبَقَتْ عَلَيَّ فِخَاخُ الْمَوْتِ. (Sheol h7585) ٥ 5
Cords of Sheol have surrounded me, Before me have been snares of death. (Sheol h7585)
فِي ضِيقِي دَعَوْتُ الرَّبَّ وَصَرَخْتُ إِلَى إِلَهِي، فَسَمِعَ صَوْتِي مِنْ هَيْكَلِهِ، وَصَعِدَ صُرَاخِي أَمَامَهُ، بَلْ دَخَلَ أُذُنَيْهِ. ٦ 6
In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I cry. He heareth from His temple my voice, And My cry before Him cometh into His ears.
عِنْدَئِذٍ ارْتَجَّتِ الأَرْضُ وَتَزَلْزَلَتْ. ارْتَجَفَتْ أَسَاسَاتُ الْجِبَالِ وَاهْتَزَّتْ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ غَضِبَ. ٧ 7
And shake and tremble doth the earth, And foundations of hills are troubled, And they shake — because He hath wrath.
نَفَثَ أَنْفُهُ دُخَاناً، وَانْقَذَفَتْ نَارٌ آكِلَةٌ مِنْ فَمِهِ، وَكَأَنَّهَا جَمْرٌ مُلْتَهِبٌ. ٨ 8
Gone up hath smoke by His nostrils, And fire from His mouth consumeth, Coals have been kindled by it.
طَأْطَأَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَنَزَلَ، فَكَانَتِ الْغُيُومُ الْمُتَجَهِّمَةُ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ. ٩ 9
And He inclineth the heavens, and cometh down, And thick darkness [is] under His feet.
امْتَطَى مَرْكَبَةً مِنْ مَلائِكَةِ الْكَرُوبِيمِ، وَطَارَ مُسْرِعاً عَلَى أَجْنِحَةِ الرِّيْاحِ. ١٠ 10
And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And He flieth on wings of wind.
جَعَلَ الظُّلْمَةَ سِتَاراً لَهُ، وَصَارَ ضَبَابُ الْمِيَاهِ وَسُحُبُ الْسَّمَاءِ الدَّاكِنَةُ مِظَلَّتَهُ الْمُحِيطَةَ بِهِ. ١١ 11
He maketh darkness His secret place, Round about Him His tabernacle, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
مِنْ بَهَاءِ طَلْعَتِهِ عَبَرَتِ السُّحُبُ أَمَامَهُ. حَدَثَتْ عَاصِفَةُ بَرَدٍ وَبَرْقٍ كَالْجَمْرِ الْمُلْتَهِبِ. ١٢ 12
From the brightness over-against Him His thick clouds have passed on, Hail and coals of fire.
أَرْعَدَ الرَّبُّ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، أَطْلَقَ الْعَلِيُّ صَوْتَهُ فَانْهَمَرَ بَرَدٌ، وَانْدَلَعَتْ نَارُ! ١٣ 13
And thunder in the heavens doth Jehovah, And the Most High giveth forth His voice, Hail and coals of fire.
أَطْلَقَ سِهَامَهُ فَبَدَّدَ أَعْدَائِي، وَأَرْسَلَ بُرُوقَهُ فَأَزْعَجَهُمْ. ١٤ 14
And He sendeth His arrows and scattereth them, And much lightning, and crusheth them.
ظَهَرَتْ مَجَارِي الْمِيَاهِ الْعَمِيقَةِ، وَانْكَشَفَتْ أُسُسُ الْمَسْكُونَةِ مِنْ زَجْرِكَ يَا رَبُّ، وَمِنْ أَنْفِكَ اللّافِحَةِ. ١٥ 15
And seen are the streams of waters, And revealed are foundations of the earth. From Thy rebuke, O Jehovah, From the breath of the spirit of Thine anger.
مَدَّ الرَّبُّ يَدَهُ مِنَ الْعُلَى وَأَمْسَكَنِي، وَانْتَشَلَنِي مِنَ السُّيُولِ الْغَامِرَةِ. ١٦ 16
He sendeth from above — He taketh me, He draweth me out of many waters.
أَنْقَذَنِي مِنْ عَدُوِّي الْقَويِّ، وَمِنَ مُبْغِضِيَّ، لأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا أَقْوَى مِنِّي. ١٧ 17
He delivereth me from my strong enemy, And from those hating me, For they have been stronger than I.
تَصَدَّوْا لِي فِي يَوْمِ بَلِيَّتِي، فَكَانَ الرَّبُّ سَنَدِي، ١٨ 18
They go before me in a day of my calamity And Jehovah is for a support to me.
وَاقْتَادَنِي إِلَى مَكَانٍ رَحِيبٍ. أَنْقَذَنِي لأَنَّهُ سُرَّ بِي. ١٩ 19
And He bringeth me forth to a large place, He draweth me out, because He delighted in me.
يُكَافِئُنِي الرَّبُّ بِمُقْتَضَى بِرِّي وَيُعَوِّضُنِي حَسَبَ طَهَارَةِ يَدَيَّ، ٢٠ 20
Jehovah doth recompense me According to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands, He doth return to me.
لأَنِّي سَلَكْتُ دَائِماً فِي طُرُقِ الرَّبِّ وَلَمْ أَعْصَ إِلَهِي. ٢١ 21
For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done wickedly against my God.
جَعَلْتُ أَحْكَامَهُ دَائِماً نُصْبَ عَيْنَيَّ، وَلَمْ أَحِدْ عَنْ فَرَائِضِهِ. ٢٢ 22
For all His judgments [are] before me, And His statutes I turn not from me.
وَأَكُونُ مَعَهُ كَامِلاً وَأَصُونُ نَفْسِي مِنْ إِثْمِي. ٢٣ 23
And I am perfect with him, And I keep myself from mine iniquity.
فَيُكَافِئُنِي الرَّبُّ وَفْقاً لِبِرِّي، بِحَسَبِ طَهَارَةِ يَدَيَّ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْهِ. ٢٤ 24
And Jehovah doth return to me, According to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands, Over-against his eyes.
مَعَ الرَّحِيمِ تَكُونُ رَحِيماً، وَمَعَ الْكَامِلِ تَكُونُ كَامِلاً، ٢٥ 25
With the kind Thou showest Thyself kind, With a perfect man showest Thyself perfect.
وَمَعَ الطَّاهِرِ تَكُونُ طَاهِراً، وَمَعَ الْمُعْوَجِّ تَكُونُ مُعْوَجّاً. ٢٦ 26
With the pure Thou showest Thyself pure, And with the perverse showest Thyself a wrestler,
لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تُخَلِّصُ الشَّعْبَ الْمُتَضَايِقَ، أَمَّا الْمُتَرَفِّعُونَ فَتَخْفِضُ عُيُونَهُمْ. ٢٧ 27
For Thou a poor people savest, And the eyes of the high causest to fall.
لأَنَّكَ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي تَضِيءُ مِصْبَاحِي، وَتُحَوِّلُ ظَلامِي نُوراً ٢٨ 28
For Thou — Thou lightest my lamp, Jehovah my God enlighteneth my darkness.
لأَنِّي بِكَ اقْتَحَمْتُ جَيْشاً، وَبِمَعُونَةِ إِلَهِي اخْتَرَقْتُ أَسْوَاراً. ٢٩ 29
For by Thee I run — a troop! And by my God I leap a wall.
مَا أَكْمَلَ طَرِيقَ الرَّبِّ! إِنَّ كَلِمَتَهُ نَقِيَّةٌ، وَهُوَ تُرْسٌ يَحْمِي جَمِيعَ الْمُلْتَجِئِينَ إِلَيْهِ. ٣٠ 30
God! perfect [is] His way, The saying of Jehovah is tried, A shield [is] He to all those trusting in Him.
فَمَنْ هُوَ إِلْهٌ غَيْرُ الرَّبِّ؟ وَمَنْ هُوَ صَخْرَةٌ سِوَى إِلَهِنَا؟ ٣١ 31
For who [is] God besides Jehovah? And who [is] a rock save our God?
يَشُدُّنِي اللهُ بِحِزامٍ مِنَ الْقُوَّةِ، وَيَجْعَلُ طَرِيقِي كَامِلاً، ٣٢ 32
God! who is girding me [with] strength, And He maketh perfect my way.
يُثَبِّتُ قَدَمَيَّ كَأَقْدَامِ الإيَّلِ وَيُصْعِدُنِي عَلَى مُرْتَفَعَاتِي الْوَعِرَةِ. ٣٣ 33
Making my feet like hinds, And on my high places causeth me to stand.
يُدَرِّبُ يَدَيَّ عَلَى فَنِّ الْحَرْبِ، فَتَشُدُّ ذِرَاعَايَ قَوْساً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ. ٣٤ 34
Teaching my hands for battle, And a bow of brass was brought down by my arms.
تَجْعَلُ أَيْضاً خَلاصَكَ تُرْساً لِي، فَتُعَضِّدُنِي بِيَمِينِكَ، وَيُعَظِّمُنِي لُطْفُكَ. ٣٥ 35
And Thou givest to me the shield of Thy salvation, And Thy right hand doth support me, And Thy lowliness maketh me great.
وَسَّعْتَ طَرِيقِي تَحْتَ قَدَمَيَّ، فَلَمْ تَتَقَلْقَلْ عَقِبَايَ. ٣٦ 36
Thou enlargest my step under me, And mine ankles have not slidden.
أُطَارِدُ أَعْدَائِي فَأُدْرِكُهُمْ، وَلَا أَرْجِعُ حَتَّى أُبِيدَهُمْ. ٣٧ 37
I pursue mine enemies, and overtake them, And turn back not till they are consumed.
أَسْحَقُهُمْ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ النُّهُوضَ. يَسْقُطُونَ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيَّ. ٣٨ 38
I smite them, and they are not able to rise, They fall under my feet,
تُمَنْطِقُنِي بِحِزَامٍ مِنَ الْقُوَّةِ تَأَهُّباً لِلْقِتَالِ. تُخْضِعُ لِسُلْطَانِي الْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ عَلَيَّ. ٣٩ 39
And Thou girdest me [with] strength for battle, Causest my withstanders to bow under me.
يُوَلُّونَ الأَدْبَارَ هَرَباً أَمَامِي. وَأُفْنِي الَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي. ٤٠ 40
As to mine enemies — Thou hast given to me the neck, As to those hating me — I cut them off.
يَسْتَغِيثُونَ وَلَا مُخَلِّصَ. يُنَادُونَ الرَّبَّ فَلَا يَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُمْ. ٤١ 41
They cry, and there is no saviour, On Jehovah, and He doth not answer them.
فَأَسْحَقُهُمْ كَالْغُبَارِ فِي مَهَبِّ الرِّيحِ، وَأَطْرَحُهُمْ مِثْلَ الطِّينِ فِي الشَّوَارِعِ. ٤٢ 42
And I beat them as dust before wind, As mire of the streets I empty them out.
تُنْقِذُنِي مِنْ ثَوْرَاتِ الشَّعْبِ، وَتَجْعَلُنِي سَيِّداً لِلأُمَمِ، حَتَّى صَارَ شَعْبٌ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْرِفُهُ عَبْداً يَخْدِمُنِي. ٤٣ 43
Thou dost deliver me From the strivings of the people, Thou placest me for a head of nations, A people I have not known do serve me.
فَمَا إِنْ يَسْمَعُوا أَمْرِي حَتَّى يُلَبُّوهُ. الْغُرَبَاءُ يَتَذَلَّلُونَ لِي ٤٤ 44
At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me, Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me,
الْغُرَبَاءُ يَخُورُونَ، يَخْرُجُونَ مِنْ حُصُونِهِمْ مُرْتَعِدِينَ. ٤٥ 45
Sons of a stranger fade away, And are slain out of their close places.
حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ، وَمُبَارَكٌ صَخْرَتِي، وَمُتَعَالٍ إِلَهُ خَلاصِي، ٤٦ 46
Jehovah liveth — and blessed [is] my rock, And exalted is the God of my salvation.
الإِلَهُ الْمُنْتَقِمُ لِي، يُخْضِعُ الشُّعُوبَ لِسُلْطَانِي، ٤٧ 47
God — who is giving vengeance to me, And He subdueth peoples under me,
مُنْقِذِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِي، رَافِعِي عَلَى الْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ عَلَيَّ، وَمِنَ الرَّجُلِ الطَّاغِي تُخَلِّصُنِي. ٤٨ 48
My deliverer from mine enemies, Above my withstanders Thou raisest me, From a man of violence dost deliver me.
لِهَذَا أَعْتَرِفُ لَكَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ وَأُرَتِّلُ لاِسْمِكَ. ٤٩ 49
Therefore I confess Thee among nations, O Jehovah, And to Thy name I sing praise,
يَا مَانِحَ الْخَلاصِ الْعَظِيمِ لِمَلِكِهِ، وَصَانِعَ الرَّحْمَةِ لِمَسِيحِهِ، لِدَاوُدَ وَنَسْلِهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. ٥٠ 50
Magnifying the salvation of His king, And doing kindness to His anointed, To David, and to his seed — unto the age!
