Psalms 38
1 A Psalm. Of David. To keep in memory. O Lord, be not bitter with me in your wrath; let not your hand be on me in the heat of your passion.
| مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِلتَّذْكِيرِ يَارَبُّ، لَا تُوَبِّخْنِي بِسَخَطِكَ، وَلَا تُؤَدِّبْنِي بِغَيْظِكَ، | ١ |
2 For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand.
| لِأَنَّ سِهَامَكَ قَدِ ٱنْتَشَبَتْ فِيَّ، وَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُكَ. | ٢ |
3 My flesh is wasted because of your wrath; and there is no peace in my bones because of my sin.
| لَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ غَضَبِكَ. لَيْسَتْ فِي عِظَامِي سَلَامَةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ خَطِيَّتِي. | ٣ |
4 For my crimes have gone over my head; they are like a great weight which is more than my strength.
| لِأَنَّ آثَامِي قَدْ طَمَتْ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. كَحِمْلٍ ثَقِيلٍ أَثْقَلَ مِمَّا أَحْتَمِلُ. | ٤ |
5 My wounds are poisoned and evil-smelling, because of my foolish behaviour.
| قَدْ أَنْتَنَتْ، قَاحَتْ حُبُرُ ضَرْبِي مِنْ جِهَةِ حَمَاقَتِي. | ٥ |
6 I am troubled, I am made low; I go weeping all the day.
| لَوِيتُ. ٱنْحَنَيْتُ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ. ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ ذَهَبْتُ حَزِينًا. | ٦ |
7 For my body is full of burning; all my flesh is unhealthy.
| لِأَنَّ خَاصِرَتَيَّ قَدِ ٱمْتَلَأَتَا ٱحْتِرَاقًا، وَلَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ. | ٧ |
8 I am feeble and crushed down; I gave a cry like a lion because of the grief in my heart.
| خَدِرْتُ وَٱنْسَحَقْتُ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ. كُنْتُ أَئِنُّ مِنْ زَفِيرِ قَلْبِي. | ٨ |
9 Lord, all my desire is before you; my sorrow is not kept secret from you.
| يَارَبُّ، أَمَامَكَ كُلُّ تَأَوُّهِي، وَتَنَهُّدِي لَيْسَ بِمَسْتُورٍ عَنْكَ. | ٩ |
10 My heart goes out in pain, my strength is wasting away; as for the light of my eyes, it is gone from me.
| قَلْبِي خَافِقٌ. قُوَّتِي فَارَقَتْنِي، وَنُورُ عَيْنِي أَيْضًا لَيْسَ مَعِي. | ١٠ |
11 My lovers and my friends keep away from my disease; my relations keep far away.
| أَحِبَّائِي وَأَصْحَابِي يَقِفُونَ تُجَاهَ ضَرْبَتِي، وَأَقَارِبِي وَقَفُوا بَعِيدًا. | ١١ |
12 Those who have a desire to take my life put nets for me; those who are designing my destruction say evil things against me, all the day their minds are full of deceit.
| وَطَالِبُو نَفْسِي نَصَبُوا شَرَكًا، وَٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِيَ ٱلشَّرَّ تَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْمَفَاسِدِ، وَٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُونَ بِٱلْغِشِّ. | ١٢ |
13 But I kept my ears shut like a man without hearing; like a man without a voice, never opening his mouth.
| وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَكَأَصَمَّ لَا أَسْمَعُ. وَكَأَبْكَمَ لَا يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ. | ١٣ |
14 So I was like a man whose ears are shut, and in whose mouth there are no sharp words.
| وَأَكُونُ مِثْلَ إِنْسَانٍلَا يَسْمَعُ، وَلَيْسَ فِي فَمِهِ حُجَّةٌ. | ١٤ |
15 In you, O Lord, is my hope: you will give me an answer, O Lord, my God.
| لِأَنِّي لَكَ يَارَبُّ صَبَرْتُ، أَنْتَ تَسْتَجِيبُ يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي. | ١٥ |
16 I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.
| لِأَنِّي قُلْتُ: «لِئَلَّا يَشْمَتُوا بِي». عِنْدَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي تَعَظَّمُوا عَلَيَّ. | ١٦ |
17 My feet are near to falling, and my sorrow is ever before me.
| لِأَنِّي مُوشِكٌ أَنْ أَظْلَعَ، وَوَجَعِي مُقَابِلِي دَائِمًا. | ١٧ |
18 I will make clear my wrongdoing, with sorrow in my heart for my sin.
| لِأَنَّنِي أُخْبِرُ بِإِثْمِي، وَأَغْتَمُّ مِنْ خَطِيَّتِي. | ١٨ |
19 But they are strong who have hate for me without cause: those who are against me falsely are increased in numbers.
| وَأَمَّا أَعْدَائِي فَأَحْيَاءٌ. عَظُمُوا. وَٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي ظُلْمًا كَثُرُوا. | ١٩ |
20 They give me back evil for good; they are my haters because I go after the thing which is right.
| وَٱلْمُجَازُونَ عَنِ ٱلْخَيْرِ بِشَرٍّ، يُقَاوِمُونَنِي لِأَجْلِ ٱتِّبَاعِي ٱلصَّلَاحَ. | ٢٠ |
21 Do not give me up, O Lord; O my God, be near to me.
| لَا تَتْرُكْنِي يَارَبُّ. يَاإِلَهِي، لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. | ٢١ |
22 Come quickly to give me help, O Lord, my salvation.
| أَسْرِعْ إِلَى مَعُونَتِي يَارَبُّ يَا خَلَاصِي. | ٢٢ |
