المَزامِير 62
| لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى يَدُوثُونَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ انْتَظَرَتْ نَفْسِي اللهَ وَحْدَهُ. مِنْ لَدُنِهِ يَأْتِي خَلاصِي. | ١ 1 |
God is the only one who can give me peace in my inner being, and he is the one who saves me [from my enemies].
| هُوَ وَحْدَهُ صَخْرَتِي وَخَلاصِي وَحِصْنِي الْمَنِيعُ، لِذَلِكَ لَا أَتَزَعْزَعُ أَبَداً. | ٢ 2 |
Only he is like an [overhanging] rock [under which I can be safe] [MET]; he will be [like] a shelter, [with the result that] I will never be defeated [MET].
| إِلَى مَتَى تُوَالُونَ الْهُجُومَ عَلَى الإِنْسَانِ، وَتَسْعَوْنَ جَمِيعُكُمْ إِلَى هَدْمِهِ، كَأَنَّهُ حَائِطٌ مُتَدَاعٍ أَوْ سِيَاجٌ مُخَلْخَلٌ؟ | ٣ 3 |
When will you, [my enemies], stop attacking me [RHQ]? I feel that I am [as useless against you as] a wall that is about to fall over or a broken-down fence [MET].
| إِنَّمَا يَتَآمَرُونَ كَيْ يُطِيحُوا بِهِ عَنْ مَكَانَتِهِ الرَّفِيعَةِ، مُبْتَهِجِينَ بِالْكَذِبِ: يُبَارِكُونَ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَيَلْعَنُونَ بِقُلُوبِهِمْ. | ٤ 4 |
My enemies plan to remove me from my important position so that people no longer honor me. They delight in telling lies. They bless people by what they say [MTY], but in their inner beings they curse [those people].
| انْتَظَرَتْ نَفِسي اللهَ وَحْدَهُ؛ مِنْ لَدُنِهِ يَأْتِي خَلاصِي. | ٥ 5 |
God is the only one who gives me peace in my inner being; he is the one whom I confidently expect [to help me].
| هُوَ وَحْدَهُ صَخْرَتِي وَخَلاصِي وَحِصْنِي الْمَنِيعُ، لِذَلِكَ لَا أَتَزَعْزَعُ أَبَداً. | ٦ 6 |
Only he is [like an overhanging] rock [under which I can be safe] [MET]; he is [like] a shelter, and [as a result] I will never be defeated.
| فِي اللهِ خَلاصِي وَمَجْدِي. وَاللهُ هُوَ صَخْرَةُ قُوَّتِي وَمَلْجَإِي. | ٧ 7 |
God is the one who saves me and honors me. He is [like an overhanging] strong rock under which I [can] find shelter [MET].
| ثِقُوا بِهِ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ أَيُّهَا الشَّعْبُ. اسْكُبُوا أَمَامَهُ قُلُوبَكُمْ، اللهُ مَلْجَأُنَا. | ٨ 8 |
[You my] people, always trust in him. Tell him all your troubles, because he is (our refuge/the one who protects us) [MET].
| لَيْسَ الْبَشَرُ جَمِيعاً، عُظَمَاءُ وَأَدْنِيَاءُ، سِوَى بَاطِلٍ وَوَهْمٍ. إنْ وَضَعْتَهُمْ فِي كَفَّةِ مِيزَانٍ لَا يَزِنُونَ شَيْئاً. إِنَّهُمْ أَخَفُّ مِنْ نَسَمَةٍ. | ٩ 9 |
People who are considered to be unimportant are [as worthless/unreliable as] a breath of air; people who are considered to be important [also] really (amount to nothing/cannot be trusted [to help us)]. If you put them all on a scale, [it would be as if] they weighed less than a puff of air.
| لَا تَتَّكِلُوا عَلَى الظُّلْمِ وَلَا تَتَفَاخَرُوا بِالسَّرِقَةِ. إنْ كَثُرَ الْغِنَى فَلَا تَعْتَمِدُوا عَلَيْهِ، | ١٠ 10 |
Do not trust in money gained by extorting it from others; do not try to gain anything by robbing others. If you become very wealthy, do not trust in [IDM] your money.
| مَرَّةً تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ وَمَرَّتَيْنِ سَمِعْتُ هَذَا: أَنَّ الْعِزَّةَ لِلهِ، | ١١ 11 |
I have heard God say more than once that he is the one who [really] has power,
| لَكَ الرَّحْمَةُ يَا رَبُّ فَأَنْتَ تُجَازِي كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ بِمُقْتَضَى عَمَلِهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
and that he is the one who faithfully loves [us]. He rewards every one [of us] according to the deeds that we do.
