< Psalms 19 >

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ اَلسَّمَاوَاتُ تُحَدِّثُ بِمَجْدِ ٱللهِ، وَٱلْفَلَكُ يُخْبِرُ بِعَمَلِ يَدَيْهِ.١
2 Day to day utters speech, and night to night proclaims knowledge.
يَوْمٌ إِلَى يَوْمٍ يُذِيعُ كَلَامًا، وَلَيْلٌ إِلَى لَيْلٍ يُبْدِي عِلْمًا.٢
3 There are no speeches or words, in which their voices are not heard.
لَا قَوْلَ وَلَا كَلَامَ. لَا يُسْمَعُ صَوْتُهُمْ.٣
4 Their voice is gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ خَرَجَ مَنْطِقُهُمْ، وَإِلَى أَقْصَى ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ كَلِمَاتُهُمْ. جَعَلَ لِلشَّمْسِ مَسْكَنًا فِيهَا،٤
5 In the sun he has set his tabernacle; and he comes forth as a bridegroom out of his chamber: he will exult as a giant to run his course.
وَهِيَ مِثْلُ ٱلْعَرُوسِ ٱلْخَارِجِ مِنْ حَجَلَتِهِ. يَبْتَهِجُ مِثْلَ ٱلْجَبَّارِ لِلسِّبَاقِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ.٥
6 His going forth is from the extremity of heaven, and his circuit to the [other] end of heaven: and no one shall be hidden from his heat.
مِنْ أَقْصَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ خُرُوجُهَا، وَمَدَارُهَا إِلَى أَقَاصِيهَا، وَلَا شَيْءَ يَخْتَفِي مِنْ حَرِّهَا.٦
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, instructing babes.
نَامُوسُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَامِلٌ يَرُدُّ ٱلنَّفْسَ. شَهَادَاتُ ٱلرَّبِّ صَادِقَةٌ تُصَيِّرُ ٱلْجَاهِلَ حَكِيمًا.٧
8 The ordinances of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is bright, enlightening the eyes.
وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ مُسْتَقِيمَةٌ تُفَرِّحُ ٱلْقَلْبَ. أَمْرُ ٱلرَّبِّ طَاهِرٌ يُنِيرُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ.٨
9 The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever and ever: the judgements of the Lord are true, [and] justified altogether.
خَوْفُ ٱلرَّبِّ نَقِيٌّ ثَابِتٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. أَحْكَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ حَقٌّ عَادِلَةٌ كُلُّهَا.٩
10 To be desired more than gold, and much precious stone: sweeter also than honey and the honey-comb.
أَشْهَى مِنَ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْإِبْرِيزِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ، وَأَحْلَى مِنَ ٱلْعَسَلِ وَقَطْرِ ٱلشِّهَادِ.١٠
11 For your servant keeps to them: in the keeping of them [there is] great reward.
أَيْضًا عَبْدُكَ يُحَذَّرُ بِهَا، وَفِي حِفْظِهَا ثَوَابٌ عَظِيمٌ.١١
12 Who will understand [his] transgressions? purge you me from my secret [sins].
اَلسَّهَوَاتُ مَنْ يَشْعُرُ بِهَا؟ مِنَ ٱلْخَطَايَا ٱلْمُسْتَتِرَةِ أَبْرِئْنِي.١٢
13 And spare your servant [the attack] of strangers: if they do not gain the dominion over me, then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from great sin.
أَيْضًا مِنَ ٱلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ ٱحْفَظْ عَبْدَكَ فَلَا يَتَسَلَّطُوا عَلَيَّ. حِينَئِذٍ أَكُونُ كَامِلًا وَأَتَبَرَّأُ مِنْ ذَنْبٍ عَظِيمٍ.١٣
14 So shall the sayings of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be pleasing continually before you, O Lord my helper, and my redeemer.
لِتَكُنْ أَقْوَالُ فَمِي وَفِكْرُ قَلْبِي مَرْضِيَّةً أَمَامَكَ يَارَبُّ، صَخْرَتِي وَوَلِيِّي.١٤
