Psalms 21

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. O LORD, the king rejoices in Your strength. How greatly he exults in Your salvation!

١ لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ مِنْ نَظْمِ دَاوُدَ رَبُّ بِقُوَّتِكَ يَفْرَحُ الْمَلِكُ، وَمَا أَعْظَمَ بَهْجَتَهُ بِخَلاصِكَ!

2 You have granted his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips.

٢ لَقَدْ وَهَبْتَهُ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِهِ وَلَمْ تَحْرِمْهُ مِنْ طِلْبَةِ شَفَتَيْهِ.

3 For You welcomed him with rich blessings; You placed on his head a crown of pure gold.

٣ بَادَرْتَهُ بِبَرَكَاتِ الْخَيْرِ، وَوَضَعْتَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ تَاجاً مِنَ الذَّهَبِ النَّقِيِّ!

4 He asked You for life, and You granted it— length of days, forever and ever.

٤ طَلَبَ مِنْكَ الْحَيَاةَ فَوَهَبْتَهَا لَهُ، إِذْ أَطَلْتَ عُمْرَهُ إِلَى أَبَدِ الدُّهُورِ.

5 Great is his glory in Your salvation; You bestow on him splendor and majesty.

٥ عَظِيمٌ مَجْدُهُ بِفَضْلِ خَلاصِكَ، بِالْعِزَّةِ وَالْبَهَاءِ كَلَّلْتَهُ.

6 For You grant him blessings forever; You cheer him with joy in Your presence.

٦ لأَنَّكَ جَعَلْتَهُ أَكْثَرَ الْمُبَارَكِينَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. تَغْمُرُهُ بِفَيْضِ الْفَرَحِ فِي حَضْرَتِكَ.

7 For the king trusts in the LORD; through the loving devotion of the Most High, he will not be shaken.

٧ لأَنَّ الْمَلِكَ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، وَبِنِعْمَةِ الْعَلِيِّ لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ.

8 Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You.

٨ يَدُكَ حَتْماً تَنَالُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ، وَيُمْنَاكَ حَقّاً تَظْفَرُ بِمُبْغِضِيكَ.

9 You will place them in a fiery furnace at the time of Your appearing. In His wrath the LORD will engulf them, and the fire will consume them.

٩ حِينَ يَتَجَلَّى وَجْهُكَ تُحْرِقُهُمْ كَمَا بِمَوْقِدٍ مُشْتَعِلٍ. تَلْتَهِمُهُمْ فِي غَضَبِكَ فَتَأْكُلُهُمُ النَّارُ.

10 You will wipe their descendants from the earth, and their offspring from the sons of men.

١٠ تُبِيدُ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ مِنَ الأَرْضِ وَنَسْلَهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي آدَمَ.

11 Though they intend You harm, the schemes they devise will not prevail.

١١ لَقَدْ تَآمَرُوا لِلإِسَاءَةِ إِلَيْكَ، وَدَبَّرُوا مَكِيدَةً شِرِّيرَةً لَمْ يُفْلِحُوا فِيهَا.

12 For You will put them to flight when Your bow is trained upon them.

١٢ لأَنَّكَ تَجْعَلُهُمْ يُدْبِرُونَ لِلْهَرَبِ، عِنْدَمَا تَشُدُّ وَتَرَ الْقَوْسِ نَحْوَ وُجُوهِهِمْ.

13 Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; we will sing and praise Your power.

١٣ ارْتَفِعْ يَا رَبُّ بِقُوَّتِكَ، فَنَتَرَنَّمَ وَنَتَغَنَّى بِقُدْرَتِكَ.
