< Psalms 69 >

1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Lilies.” By David. Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck!
لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى السُّوسَنِّ. لِدَاوُدَ خَلِّصْنِي يَا اللهُ، فَإِنَّ الْمِيَاهَ قَدْ غَمَرَتْ نَفْسِي.١
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
غَرِقْتُ فِي حَمْأَةٍ وَلَا مَكَانَ فِيهَا أَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْهِ. خُضْتُ أَعْمَاقَ الْمِيَاهِ. وَطَمَا عَلَيَّ السَّيْلُ.٢
3 I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God.
تَعِبْتُ مِنْ صُرَاخِي. جَفَّ حَلْقِي. كَلَّتْ عَيْنَايَ وَأَنَا أَنْتَظِرُ إِلَهِي.٣
4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I did not take away.
مُبْغِضِيَّ مِنْ غَيْرِ عِلَّةٍ أَكْثَرُ عَدَداً مِنْ شَعْرِ رَأْسِي، وَطَالِبُو هَلاكِي طُغَاةٌ جَائِرُونَ. حِينَئِذٍ رَدَدْتُ مَا لَمْ أَغْتَصِبْهُ.٤
5 God, you know my foolishness. My sins are not hidden from you.
يَا اللهُ أَنْتَ تَعْرِفُ حَمَاقَتِي، وَمَعَاصِيَّ لَمْ تَخْفَ عَنْكَ.٥
6 Do not let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord GOD of Armies. Do not let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.
أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ، لَا تَدَعْنِي أَكُونُ عِلَّةَ خِزْيِ مُلْتَمِسِيكَ، وَلَا مَثَارَ خَجَلِ طَالِبِيكَ يَا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.٦
7 Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.
لأَنَّنِي تَحَمَّلْتُ الْعَارَ مِنْ أَجْلِكَ، وَغَطَّى الْخَجَلُ وَجْهِي.٧
8 I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.
صِرْتُ غَرِيباً فِي عُيُونِ إِخْوَتِي، وَأَجْنَبِيًّا فِي نَظَرِ بَنِي أُمِّي.٨
9 For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
لأَنَّ الْغَيْرَةَ عَلَى بَيْتِكَ أَكَلَتْنِي وَتَعْيِيرَاتُ الَّذِينَ يُعَيِّرُونَكَ وَقَعَتْ عَلَيَّ.٩
10 When I wept and I fasted, that was to my reproach.
صُمْتُ وَبَكَيْتُ فَعَيَّرُونِي.١٠
11 When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
اتَّشَحْتُ بِالمُسُوحِ فَصِرْتُ عِنْدَهُمْ مَثَلاً.١١
12 Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards.
صِرْتُ حَدِيثَ الْجَالِسِينَ فِي بَابِ الْمَدِينَةِ، وَأُغْنِيَةً لِلسُّكَارَى.١٢
13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, LORD, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَإِلَيْكَ صَلاتِي يَا رَبُّ؛ لأَنَّ هَذَا أَوَانُ الرِّضَى، فَاسْتَجِبْ لِي يَا اللهُ بِرَحْمَتِكَ الْغَزِيرَةِ وَبِحَقِّ خَلاصِكَ.١٣
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and do not let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
أَنْقِذْنِي مِنَ الوَحْلِ فَلَا أَغْرَقَ. نَجِّنِي مِنْ مُبْغِضِيَّ وَانْتَشِلْنِي مِنْ أَعْمَاقِ الْمِيَاهِ.١٤
15 Do not let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Do not let the pit shut its mouth on me.
لَا يَطْمُ عَلَيَّ سَيْلُ الْمِيَاهِ، وَلَا يَبْتَلِعَنِّي الْعُمْقُ، وَلَا تُطْبِقِ الْهُوَّةُ عَلَيَّ فَمَهَا.١٥
16 Answer me, LORD, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.
اسْتَجِبْ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ لأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ صَالِحَةٌ، وَبِحَسَبِ مَرَاحِمِكَ الْوَفِيرَةِ الْتَفِتْ إِلَيَّ.١٦
17 Do not hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!
لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنْ عَبْدِكَ، لأَنَّنِي فِي ضِيقٍ، فَأَسْرِعْ وَاسْتَجِبْ لِي.١٧
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.
اقْتَرِبْ إِلَى نَفْسِي، وَفُكَّهَا. افْدِنِي بِأَعْدَائِي١٨
19 You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you.
أَنْتَ عَرَفْتَ عَارِي وَخِزْيِي وَهَوَانِي. أَنْتَ تَعْرِفُ كُلَّ مُضَايِقِيَّ.١٩
20 Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none.
كَسَرَ الْعَارُ قَلْبِي فَمَرِضْتُ. الْتَمَسْتُ عَطْفاً فَلَمْ أَجِدْ، وَمُعَزِّينَ فَلَمْ أَعْثُرْ عَلَى أَحَدٍ.٢٠
21 They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
وَضَعُوا عَلْقَماً فِي طَعَامِي، وَفِي عَطَشِي يَسْقُونَنِي خَلاً.٢١
22 Let their table before them become a snare. May it become a retribution and a trap.
لِتَصِرْ لَهُمْ مَائِدَتُهُمْ فَخّاً وَعَقَبَةً وَعِقَاباً.٢٢
23 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see. Let their backs be continually bent.
لِتُظْلِمْ عُيُونُهُمْ كَيْ لَا يُبْصِرُوا وَلْتَكُنْ ظُهُورُهُمْ مُنْحَنِيَةً دَائِماً.٢٣
24 Pour out your indignation on them. Let the fierceness of your anger overtake them.
صُبَّ سَخَطَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَلْيُدْرِكْهُمْ غَضَبُكَ الْمُحْتَدِمُ.٢٤
25 Let their habitation be desolate. Let no one dwell in their tents.
لِيَصِرْ مَسْكَنُهُمْ خَرَاباً، وَلَا يَبْقَ فِي خِيَامِهِمْ سَاكِنٌ.٢٥
26 For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.
لأَنَّهُمْ يَضْطَهِدُونَ مَنْ عَاقَبْتَهُ، وَيَشْمَتُونَ فِي وَجَعِ الَّذِينَ جَرَحْتَهُمْ.٢٦
27 Charge them with crime upon crime. Do not let them come into your righteousness.
زِدْ إِثْماً عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ وَلَا تُبْرِئْ سَاحَتَهُمْ.٢٧
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.
لِتُحْذَفْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ مِنْ سِجِلِّ الْحَيَاةِ وَلَا تُكْتَبْ مَعَ الأَبْرَارِ.٢٨
29 But I am in pain and distress. Let your salvation, God, protect me.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَمُتَضَايِقٌ وَمُتَوَجِّعٌ. فَلْيُرَفِّعْنِي خَلاصُكَ يَا اللهُ.٢٩
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
أُسَبِّحُ اسْمَ اللهِ بِنَشِيدٍ وَأُعَظِّمُهُ بِحَمْدٍ.٣٠
31 It will please the LORD better than an ox, or a bull that has horns and hoofs.
فَيَطِيبُ ذَلِكَ لَدَى الرَّبِّ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُحْرَقَةٍ: ثَوْرٍ أَوْ عِجْلٍ.٣١
32 The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.
يَرَى الْوُدَعَاءُ ذَلِكَ فَيَفْرَحُونَ. وَتَحْيَا نُفُوسُكُمْ يَا طَالِبِي اللهِ.٣٢
33 For the LORD hears the needy, and does not despise his captive people.
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسْتَجِيبُ لِلْمُحْتَاجِينَ وَلَا يَحْتَقِرُ شَعْبَهُ الأَسِيرَ.٣٣
34 Let heaven and earth praise him; the seas, and everything that moves therein!
تُسَبِّحُهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ وَالْبِحَارُ وَكُلُّ مَا يَتَحَرَّكَ فِيهَا.٣٤
35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah. They shall settle there, and own it.
لأَنَّ اللهَ يُخَلِّصُ صِهْيَوْنَ وَيَبْنِي مُدُنَ يَهُوذَا، فَيَسْكُنُ الشَّعْبُ فِيهَا وَيَمْتَلِكُهَا.٣٥
36 The children also of his servants shall inherit it. Those who love his name shall dwell therein.
تَرِثُهَا ذُرِّيَّةُ عَبِيدِهِ، وَمُحِبُّو اسْمِهِ يَسْكُنوُنَ فِيهَا.٣٦
