المَزامِير 20

١ 1 لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِيَسْتَجِبْ لَكَ الرَّبُّ فِي يَوْمِ ضِيقِكَ. لِيَحْرُسْكَ اسْمُ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ.

For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee.

٢ 2 لِيُرْسِلْ لَكَ عَوْناً مِنْ مَقْدِسِهِ، وَمُسَانَدَةً مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ.

Send thee help from the sanctuary, and aid thee out of Sion.

٣ 3 لِيَتَذَكَّرْ جَمِيعَ تَقْدِمَاتِكَ، وَيَتَقَبَّلْ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ.

Remember all thy sacrifice, and enrich thy whole-burnt-offering. (Pause)

٤ 4 لِيُعْطِكَ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِكَ، وَيُتَمِّمْ لَكَ كُلَّ مَقَاصِدِكَ.

Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfill all thy desire.

٥ 5 نَهْتِفُ مُبْتَهِجِينَ بِخَلاصِكَ، وَبِاسْمِ إِلَهِنَا نَرْفَعُ رَايَتَنَا، لِيُحَقِّقْ لَكَ الرَّبُّ كُلَّ مَا تَسْأَلُهُ.

We will exult in thy salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.

٦ 6 الآنَ أَدْرَكْتُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُخَلِّصُ مَسِيحَهُ، وَيَسْتَجِيبُ مِنْ سَمَاوَاتِهِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، بِقُدْرَةِ يَمِينِهِ الْمُخَلِّصَةِ.

Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.

٧ 7 يَتَّكِلُ هَؤُلاءِ عَلَى مَرْكَبَاتِ الْحَرْبِ، وَأُولَئِكَ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ. أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَتَّكِلُ عَلَى اسْمِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا.

Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

٨ 8 هُمْ خَرُّوا وَسَقَطُوا، أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَهَضْنَا وَانْتَصَبْنَا.

They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

٩ 9 خَلِّصْ يَا رَبُّ! لِيَسْتَجِبِ الْمَلِكُ حِينَ نَدْعُوهُ.

O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon thee.
