< Psalms 13 >

1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. Will you for ever put me out of your memory, O Lord? will your face for ever be turned away from me?
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ إِلَى مَتَى يَارَبُّ تَنْسَانِي كُلَّ ٱلنِّسْيَانِ؟ إِلَى مَتَى تَحْجُبُ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي؟١
2 How long is my soul to be in doubt, with sorrow in my heart all the day? how long will he who is against me be given power over me?
إِلَى مَتَى أَجْعَلُ هُمُومًا فِي نَفْسِي وَحُزْنًا فِي قَلْبِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ؟ إِلَى مَتَى يَرْتَفِعُ عَدُوِّي عَلَيَّ؟٢
3 Let my voice come before you, and give me an answer, O Lord my God; let your light be shining on me, so that the sleep of death may not overtake me;
ٱنْظُرْ وَٱسْتَجِبْ لِي يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي. أَنِرْ عَيْنَيَّ لِئَلَّا أَنَامَ نَوْمَ ٱلْمَوْتِ،٣
4 And he who is against me may not say, I have overcome him; and those who are troubling me may not be glad when I am moved.
لِئَلَّا يَقُولَ عَدُوِّي: «قَدْ قَوِيتُ عَلَيْهِ». لِئَلَّا يَهْتِفَ مُضَايِقِيَّ بِأَنِّي تَزَعْزَعْتُ.٤
5 But I have had faith in your mercy; my heart will be glad in your salvation.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَعَلَى رَحْمَتِكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. يَبْتَهِجُ قَلْبِي بِخَلَاصِكَ.٥
6 I will make a song to the Lord, because he has given me my reward.
أُغَنِّي لِلرَّبِّ لِأَنَّهُ أَحْسَنَ إِلَيَّ.٦
