Psalms 102
1 A Prayer for the Poor; when he is deeply afflicted, and pours out his supplication before the Lord. Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come to you.
| صَلاةُ الْمِسْكِينِ إِذَا أَعْيَا وَسَكَبَ شَكْوَاهُ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ يَا رَبُّ اسْتَمِعْ صَلاتِي وَلْيَصِلْ إِلَيْكَ صُرَاخِي. | ١ |
2 Turn not away your face from me: in the day [when] I am afflicted, incline your ear to me: in the day [when] I shall call upon you, speedily hear me.
| لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي فِي يَوْمِ ضِيقِي، بَلْ أَمِلْ نَحْوِي أُذُنَكَ. اسْتَجِبْ لِي سَرِيعاً يَوْمَ أَدْعُوكَ، | ٢ |
3 For my days have vanished like smoke, and my bones have been parched like a stick.
| لأَنَّ أَيَّامِي قَدْ تَبَدَّدَتْ كَالدُّخَانِ، وَعِظَامِي اضْطَرَمَتْ كَالْوَقِيدِ. | ٣ |
4 I am blighted like grass, and my heart is dried up; for I have forgotten to eat my bread.
| قَلْبِي مَنْكُوبٌ وَيَابِسٌ كَالْعُشْبِ الْجَافِّ، حَتَّى غَفِلْتُ عَنْ أَكْلِ طَعَامِي. | ٤ |
5 By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bone has cleaved to my flesh.
| الْتَصَقَتْ عِظَامِي بِلَحْمِي مِنْ جَرَّاءِ أَنَّاتِي الْمُرْتَفِعَةِ. | ٥ |
6 I have become like a pelican of the wilderness;
| صِرْتُ أَشْبَهَ بِبَجْعِ الْبَرَارِي، وَمِثْلَ بُومَةِ الْخَرَائِبِ. | ٦ |
7 I have become like an owl in a ruined house. I have watched, and am become as a sparrow dwelling alone on a roof.
| أَرِقْتُ، وَصِرْتُ كَالْعُصْفُورِ الْمُنْفَرِدِ عَلَى السَّطْحِ. | ٧ |
8 All the day long mine enemies have reproached me; and they that praised me have sworn against me.
| عَيَّرَنِي أَعْدَائِي طُولَ النَّهَارِ، وَالسَّاخِرُونَ الْحَانِقُونَ عَلَيَّ، جَعَلُوا اسْمِي لَعْنَةً، | ٨ |
9 For I have eaten ashes as it were bread, and mingled my drink with weeping;
| فَقَدْ أَكَلْتُ الرَّمَادَ كَالْخُبْزِ، وَمَزَجْتُ شَرَابِي بِالدُّمُوعِ، | ٩ |
10 because of your anger and your wrath: for you have lifted me up, and dashed me down.
| بِسَبَبِ غَضَبِكَ وَسَخَطِكَ لأَنَّكَ قَدْ رَفَعْتَنِي ثُمَّ طَرَحْتَنِي بِعُنْفٍ. | ١٠ |
11 My days have declined like a shadow; and I am withered like grass.
| عُمْرِي أَشْبَهُ بِظِلٍّ مُتَقَلِّصٍ، وَأَنَا مِثْلُ الْعُشْبِ أَذْوِي. | ١١ |
12 But you, Lord, endure for ever, and your memorial to generation and generation.
| أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ فَجَالِسٌ عَلَى عَرْشِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَذِكْرُكَ بَاقٍ مَدَى الدَّهْرِ. | ١٢ |
13 You shall arise, and have mercy upon Sion: for [it is] time to have mercy upon her, for the set time is come.
| أَنْتَ تَقُومُ وَتَرْحَمُ صِهْيَوْنَ لأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَزِفَ وَقْتُ إِظْهَارِ رِضَاكَ، | ١٣ |
14 For your servants have taken pleasure in her stones, and they shall pity her dust.
| فَإِنَّ عَبِيدَكَ يُسَرُّونَ بِحِجَارَتِهَا، يَشْتَاقُونَ إِلَى ذَرَّاتِ تُرَابِهَا. | ١٤ |
15 So the nations shall fear your name, O Lord, and all kings your glory.
| فَتَخْشَى الأُمَمُ اسْمَ الرَّبِّ، وَيَهَابُ جَمِيعُ مُلُوكِ الأَرْضِ مَجْدَكَ. | ١٥ |
16 For the Lord shall build up Sion, and shall appear in his glory.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ بَنَى صِهْيَوْنَ وَتَجَلَّى فِي مَجْدِهِ. | ١٦ |
17 He has had regard to the prayer of the lowly, and has not despised their petition.
| الْتَفَتَ إِلَى صَلاةِ الْبَائِسِينَ وَلَمْ يَرْفُضْ دُعَاءَ الْمُتَضَايِقِينَ. | ١٧ |
18 Let this be written for another generation; and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord.
| يُكْتَبُ هَذَا لِلْجِيلِ الآتِي الَّذِي سَيُخْلَقُ فَيُسَبِّحُ الرَّبَّ. | ١٨ |
19 For he has looked out from the height of his sanctuary; the Lord looked upon the earth from heaven;
| تَطَلَّعَ الرَّبُّ مِنْ عَلْيَاءِ مَقْدِسِهِ، مِنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ نَظَرَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، | ١٩ |
20 to hear the groaning of the fettered ones, to loosen the sons of the slain;
| لِيَسْمَعَ أَنِينَ شَعْبِهِ الأَسِيرِ وَيُحَرِّرَ الْمَقْضِيَّ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوْتِ. | ٢٠ |
21 to proclaim the name of the Lord in Sion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
| لِكَيْ يُذَاعَ اسْمُ الرَّبِّ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، وَيُسَبَّحَ أَيْضاً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، | ٢١ |
22 when the people are gathered together, and the kings, to serve the Lord.
| عِنْدَمَا تَجْتَمِعُ الشُّعُوبُ وَالْمَمَالِكُ جَمِيعاً لِيَعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ. | ٢٢ |
23 He answered him in the way of his strength: tell me the fewness of my days.
| الرَّبُّ أَضْعَفَنِي وَأَنَا فِي رَيْعَانِ قُوَّتِي وَقَصَّرَ أَيَّامِي. | ٢٣ |
24 Take me not away in the midst of my days: your years [are] through all generations.
| حَتَّى قُلْتُ: «يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ حَيٌّ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. لَا تَقْصِفْنِي فِي مُنْتَصَفِ عُمْرِي، قَبْلَ أَنْ أَبْلُغَ الشَّيْخُوخَةَ. | ٢٤ |
25 In the beginning you, O Lord, did lay the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands.
| مِنْ قِدَمٍ أَسَّسْتَ الأَرْضَ، وَالسَّمَاوَاتُ هِيَ صُنْعُ يَدَيْكَ. | ٢٥ |
26 They shall perish, but you remain: and [they all] shall wax old as a garment; and as a vesture shall you fold them, and they shall be changed.
| هِيَ زَائِلَةٌ أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَبَاقٍ. تَبْلَى كُلُّهَا كَالثَّوْبِ. وَتَسْتَبْدِلُهَا كَمَا يُسْتَبْدَلُ الرِّدَاءُ القَدِيمُ بِالجَدِيدِ. | ٢٦ |
27 But you are the same, and your years shall not fail.
| لَكِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الدَّائِمُ الْخَالِدُ، وَسِنُوكَ لَنْ تَنْتَهِيَ. | ٢٧ |
28 The children of your servants shall dwell [securely], and their seed shall prosper for ever.
| أَبْنَاءُ عَبِيدِكَ يَدُومُونَ، وَنَسْلُهُمْ يَظَلُّ ثَابِتاً أَمَامَكَ». | ٢٨ |
