< Psalms 57 >

1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial, when he fled from the presence of Saul to the cave. Have mercy, upon me, O God, have mercy upon me: for my soul has trusted in you: and in the shadow of your wings will I hope, until the iniquity have passed away.
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. عَلَى «لَا تُهْلِكْ». مُذَهَّبَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ عِنْدَمَا هَرَبَ مِنْ قُدَّامِ شَاوُلَ فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ. اِرْحَمْنِي يَا ٱللهُ ٱرْحَمْنِي، لِأَنَّهُ بِكَ ٱحْتَمَتْ نَفْسِي، وَبِظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ أَحْتَمِي إِلَى أَنْ تَعْبُرَ ٱلْمَصَائِبُ.١
2 I will cry to God most high; the God who has benefitted me. (Pause)
أَصْرُخُ إِلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، إِلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْمُحَامِي عَنِّي.٢
3 He sent from heaven and saved me; he gave to reproach them that trampled on me: God has sent forth his mercy and his truth;
يُرْسِلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَيُخَلِّصُنِي. عَيَّرَ ٱلَّذِي يَتَهَمَّمُنِي. سِلَاهْ. يُرْسِلُ ٱللهُ رَحْمَتَهُ وَحَقَّهُ.٣
4 and he has delivered my soul from the midst of [lions']whelps: I lay down to sleep, [though] troubled. [As for] the sons of men, their teeth are arms and [missile] weapons, and their tongue a sharp sword.
نَفْسِي بَيْنَ ٱلْأَشْبَالِ. أَضْطَجِعُ بَيْنَ ٱلْمُتَّقِدِينَ بَنِي آدَمَ. أَسْنَانُهُمْ أَسِنَّةٌ وَسِهَامٌ، وَلِسَانُهُمْ سَيْفٌ مَاضٍ.٤
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
ٱرْتَفِعِ ٱللَّهُمَّ عَلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. لِيَرْتَفِعْ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ مَجْدُكَ.٥
6 They have prepared snares for my feet, and have bowed down my soul: they have dug a pit before my face, and fallen into it [themselves]. (Pause)
هَيَّأُوا شَبَكَةً لِخَطَوَاتِي. ٱنْحَنَتْ نَفْسِي. حَفَرُوا قُدَّامِي حُفْرَةً. سَقَطُوا فِي وَسَطِهَا. سِلَاهْ.٦
7 My heart, O God, [is] ready, my heart [is] ready: I will sing, yes will sing psalms.
ثَابِتٌ قَلْبِي يَا ٱللهُ، ثَابِتٌ قَلْبِي. أُغَنِّي وَأُرَنِّمُ.٧
8 Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will awake early.
ٱسْتَيْقِظْ يَا مَجْدِي! ٱسْتَيْقِظِي يَارَبَابُ وَيَا عُودُ! أَنَا أَسْتَيْقِظُ سَحَرًا.٨
9 O Lord, I will give thanks to you amongst the nations: I will sing to you amongst the Gentiles.
أَحْمَدُكَ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ يَارَبُّ. أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ.٩
10 For your mercy has been magnified even to the heavens, and your truth to the clouds.
لِأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ قَدْ عَظُمَتْ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، وَإِلَى ٱلْغَمَامِ حَقُّكَ.١٠
11 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
ٱرْتَفِعِ ٱللَّهُمَّ عَلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. لِيَرْتَفِعْ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ مَجْدُكَ.١١
