المَزامِير 20

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

Unto the end. A psalm for David. May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.

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

May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.

٣ 3 لِيَتَذَكَّرْ جَمِيعَ تَقْدِمَاتِكَ، وَيَتَقَبَّلْ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ.

May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burnt offering be made fat.

٤ 4 لِيُعْطِكَ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِكَ، وَيُتَمِّمْ لَكَ كُلَّ مَقَاصِدِكَ.

May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.

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

We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.

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

The Lord fulfill all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.

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

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.

٨ 8 هُمْ خَرُّوا وَسَقَطُوا، أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَهَضْنَا وَانْتَصَبْنَا.

They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright.

٩ 9 خَلِّصْ يَا رَبُّ! لِيَسْتَجِبِ الْمَلِكُ حِينَ نَدْعُوهُ.

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