< المَزامِير 35 >
لِدَاوُدَ يَا رَبُّ كُنْ خَصْماً لِمَنْ يُخَاصِمُونَنِي، وَحَارِبِ الَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَنِي. | ١ 1 |
[By David.] Contend, LORD, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me.
تَقَلَّدِ التُّرْسَ وَالدِّرْعَ وَهُبَّ لِنَجْدَتِي. | ٢ 2 |
Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
جَرِّدْ رُمْحاً وَتَصَدَّ لِمُطَارِدِيَّ، وَقُلْ لِنَفْسِي: خَلاصُكِ أَنَا. | ٣ 3 |
Brandish the spear and block those who pursue me. Tell my soul, "I am your salvation."
لِيَخْزَ وَلْيَخْجَلِ السَّاعُونَ إِلَى قَتْلِي. لِيَنْهَزِمْ وَيَخْجَلِ الْمُتَوَاطِئُونَ عَلَى أَذِيَّتِي. | ٤ 4 |
Let those who seek after my soul be disappointed and brought to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned back and confounded.
لِيَكُونُوا مِثْلَ ذَرَّاتِ التِّبْنِ فِي مَهَبِّ الرِّيحِ. وَلْيَدْحَرْهُمْ مَلاكُ الرَّبِّ. | ٥ 5 |
Let them be as chaff before the wind, The LORD's angel driving them on.
لِتَكُنْ طَرِيقُهُمْ مُظْلِمَةً وَزَلِقَةً، وَلْيَتَعَقَّبْهُمْ مَلاكُ الرَّبِّ. | ٦ 6 |
Let their way be dark and slippery, The LORD's angel pursuing them.
فَإِنَّهُمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ سَبَبٍ أَخْفَوْا لِي شَبَكَةً فَوْقَ الْهُوَّةِ، وَمِنْ غَيْرِ عِلَّةٍ حَفَرُوا لِي حُفْرَةً. | ٧ 7 |
For without cause they have hidden their net in a pit for me. Without cause they have dug a pit for my soul.
لِيُطْبِقِ الْهَلاكُ فَجْأَةً عَلَى عَدُوِّي، وَلْتُمْسِكْ بِهِ الشَّبَكَةُ الَّتِي أَخْفَاهَا، فَيَهْلِكَ فِيهَا. | ٨ 8 |
Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction.
أَمَّا نَفْسِي فَتَفْرَحُ بِالرَّبِّ وَتَبْتَهِجُ بِخَلاصِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
My soul shall be joyful in the LORD. It shall rejoice in his salvation.
جَمِيعُ عِظَامِي تَقُولُ: يَا رَبُّ مَنْ مِثْلُكَ، المُخَلِّصُ الْمِسْكِينَ مِمَّنْ هُوَ أَقْوَى مِنْهُ وَمُنْقِذُ الْفَقِيرِ وَالْبَائِسِ مِنْ يَدِ نَاهِبِهِ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
All my bones shall say, "LORD, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?"
يَقُومُ عَلَيَّ شُهُودُ زُورٍ يَتَّهِمُونَنِي ظُلْماً بِمَا لَا أَعْلَمُ. | ١١ 11 |
Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I do not know about.
يُجَازُونَنِي عَنِ الْخَيْرِ شَرّاً إِتْعَاساً لِنَفْسِي. | ١٢ 12 |
They reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ لَبِسْتُ الْمِسْحَ حُزْناً عَلَى مَرَضِهِمْ، وَأَذْلَلْتُ نَفْسِي بِالصَّوْمِ، وَلَكِنَّ صَلاتِي كَانَتْ تَرْتَدُّ إِلَى صَدْرِي مِنْ غَيْرِ اسْتِجَابَةٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
لَقَدْ عَامَلْتُ كُلًّا مِنْهُمْ كَأَنَّهُ صَدِيقِي وَأَخِي، وَأَطْرَقْتُ حُزْناً كَمَنْ يَنْدُبُ أُمَّهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.
وَأَمَّا هُمْ فَشَمِتُوا فَرَحاً عِنْدَ سَقْطَتِي، وَتَجَمَّعُوا عَلَيَّ شَاتِمِينَ، وَشَرَعَ غُرَبَاءُ لَا أَعْرِفُهُمْ يَضْرِبُونَنِي. مَزَّقُونِي وَلَمْ يَرْتَدِعُوا. | ١٥ 15 |
But in my adversity, they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I did not know it. They tore at me, and did not cease.
كَفُجَّارٍ مَاجِنِينَ مُجْتَمِعِينَ حَوْلَ وَلِيمَةٍ حَرَّقُوا عَلَيَّ أَسْنَانَهُمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
When I tripped, they mocked me relentlessly; they gnashed their teeth at me.
يَا سَيِّدُ، حَتَّى مَتَى تَظَلُّ مُتَفَرِّجاً؟ نَجِّ نَفْسِي مِنْ مَهَالِكِهِمْ وَخَلِّصْ حَيَاتِي مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَشْبَالِ. | ١٧ 17 |
LORD, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, my precious life from the lions.
أَشْكُرُكَ فِي جَمَاعَةِ الْعَابِدِينَ، وَأَحْمَدُكَ فِي وَسَطِ حُشُودٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. | ١٨ 18 |
I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people.
لَا يَشْمَتْ بِي أَعْدَائِي بِحُجَّةٍ بَاطِلَةٍ، وَلَا يَتَغَامَزْ مُبْغِضِيَّ عَلَيَّ، بِغَيْرِ عِلَّةٍ. | ١٩ 19 |
Do not let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those who hate me without a cause and wink their eyes.
فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِالسَّلامِ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ يَتَآمَرُونَ بِمَكْرٍ لِلإِيقَاعِ بِالْمُسَالِمِينَ السَّاكِنِينَ فِي الأَرْضِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
فَغَرُوا علَيَّ أَفْوَاهَهُمْ عَلَى وِسْعِهَا، وَقَالُوا: «هَهْ! هَهْ! قَدْ رَأَيْنَا بِأَعْيُنِنَا (مَا فَعَلْتَ).» | ٢١ 21 |
Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, "Aha. Aha. Our eye has seen it."
قَدْ رَأَيْتَ يَا رَبُّ ذَلِكَ. لَا تَسْكُتْ وَلَا تَبْتَعِدْ عَنِّي. | ٢٢ 22 |
You have seen it, LORD. Do not keep silent. LORD, do not be far from me.
انْهَضْ يَا إِلَهِي وَسَيِّدِي وَاسْتَيْقِظْ لإِحْقَاقِ حَقِّي وَإِنْصَافِ دَعْوَايَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Wake up. Rise up to defend me, my God. My Lord, contend for me.
احْكُمْ بِبَرَاءَتِي يَا رَبُّ يَا إِلَهِي حَسَبَ عَدْلِكَ، وَلَا تَدَعْهُمْ يَشْمَتُونَ بِي. | ٢٤ 24 |
Vindicate me, LORD my God, according to your righteousness. Do not let them gloat over me.
لِئَلّا يَقُولُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ: «هَهْ! قَدْ ظَفِرْنَا بِهِ» أَوْ يَقُولُوا: «قَدِ ابْتَلَعْنَاهُ!» | ٢٥ 25 |
Do not let them say in their heart, "Aha. Aha. Our desire." Do not let them say, "We have swallowed him up."
لِيَخْزَ وَيَخْجَلْ جَمِيعُ الشَّامِتِينَ بِي فِي مُصِيبَتِي. لِيَرْتَدِ الْمُتَعَظِّمُونَ عَلَيَّ لِبَاسَ الْخِزْيِ وَالْعَارِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Let them be put to shame and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.
وَلْيَهْتِفِ الْمَسْرُورُونَ بِبِرِّي بِهُتَافِ الْفَرَحِ وَالابْتِهَاجِ، قَائِلِينَ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ: «لِيَتَمَجَّدِ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَبْتَهِجُ بِنَجَاحِ عَبْدِهِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause. And let them say continually, "The LORD be magnified, who delights in the peace of his servant."
فَيُذِيعَ لِسَانِي عَدْلَكَ، وَيَتَرَنَّمَ بِحَمْدِكَ النَّهَارَ كُلَّهُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
My tongue shall talk about your righteousness and about your praise all day long.
