المَزامِير 91

١ 1 الْمُحْتَمِي بِقُدْسِ أَقْدَاسِ الْعَلِيِّ، فِي ظِلِّ الْقَدِيرِ يَبِيتُ،

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

٢ 2 أَقُولُ لِلرَّبِّ: أَنْتَ مَلْجَإِي وَحِصْنِي، إِلَهِي الَّذِي بِهِ وَثِقْتُ

I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

٣ 3 لأَنَّهُ يُنْقِذُكَ حَقّاً مِنْ فَخِّ الصَّيَّادِ وَمِنَ الْوَبَاءِ الْمُهْلِكِ.

Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague.

٤ 4 بِرِيشِهِ النَّاعِمِ يُظَلِّلُكَ، وَتَحْتَ أَجْنِحَتِهِ تَحْتَمِي، فَتَكُونُ لَكَ وُعُودُهُ الأَمِينَةُ تُرْساً وَمِتْرَاساً،

He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.

٥ 5 فَلَا تَخَافُ مِنْ هَوْلِ اللَّيْلِ وَلَا مِنْ سَهْمٍ يَطِيرُ فِي النَّهَارِ.

You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

٦ 6 وَلَا مِنْ وَبَاءٍ يَسْرِي فِي الظَّلامِ، وَلَا مِنْ هَلاكٍ يُفْسِدُ فِي الظَّهِيرَةِ.

nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon.

٧ 7 يَتَسَاقَطُ عَنْ جَانِبِكَ أَلْفُ إِنْسَانٍ، وَعَنْ يَمِينِكَ عَشَرَةُ آلافٍ، وَأَنْتَ لَا يَمَسُّكَ سُوءٌ.

Though a thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you.

٨ 8 إِنَّمَا تُشَاهِدُ بِعَيْنَيْكَ مُعَاقَبَةَ الأَشْرَارِ.

You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.

٩ 9 لأَنَّكَ قُلْتَ: الرَّبُّ مَلْجَإِي، وَاتَّخَذْتَ الْعَلِيَّ مَلاذاً،

Because you have made the LORD your dwelling— my refuge, the Most High—

١٠ 10 فَلَنْ يُصِيبَكَ شَرٌّ وَلَنْ تَقْتَرِبَ بَلِيَّةٌ مِنْ مَسْكَنِكَ

no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.

١١ 11 فَإِنَّهُ يُوصِي مَلائِكَتَهُ بِكَ لِكَيْ يَحْفَظُوكَ فِي جَمِيعِ طُرُقِكَ.

For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

١٢ 12 عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ يَحْمِلُونَكَ لِئَلّا تَصْدِمَ بِحَجَرٍ قَدَمَكَ.

They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

١٣ 13 تَطَأُ عَلَى الأَسَدِ وَالأَفْعَى، تَدُوسُ الشِّبْلَ وَالثُّعْبَانَ.

You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent.

١٤ 14 قَالَ الرَّبُّ: أُنَجِّيهِ لأَنَّهُ تَعَلَّقَ بِي. أُرَفِّعُهُ لأَنَّهُ عَرَفَ اسْمِي.

“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him.

١٥ 15 يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُ، أُرَافِقُهُ فِي الضِّيقِ، أُنْقِذُهُ وَأُكْرِمُهُ

When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him.

١٦ 16 أُطِيلُ عُمْرَهُ، وَأُرِيهِ خَلاصِي.

With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”
