Psalms 37
1 A psalm for David himself. Be not emulous of evildoers; nor envy them that work iniquity.
| لِدَاوُدَ لَا يُقْلِقْكَ أَمْرُ الأَشْرَارِ، وَلَا تَحْسِدْ فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ، | ١ |
2 For they shall shortly wither away as grass, and as the green herbs shall quickly fall.
| فَإِنَّهُمْ مِثْلَ الْحَشِيشِ سَرِيعاً يَذْوُونَ، وَكَالْعُشْبِ الأَخْضَرِ يَذْبُلُونَ. | ٢ |
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good, and dwell in the land, and thou shalt be fed with its riches.
| تَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ وَاصْنَعِ الْخَيْرَ. اسْكُنْ فِي الأَرْضِ (مُطْمَئِنّاً) وَرَاعِ الأَمَانَةَ. | ٣ |
4 Delight in the Lord, and he will give thee the requests of thy heart.
| ابْتَهِجْ بِالرَّبِّ فَيَمْنَحَكَ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِكَ. | ٤ |
5 Commit thy way to the Lord, and trust in him, and he will do it.
| سَلِّمْ لِلرَّبِّ طَرِيقَكَ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَيْهِ فَيَتَوَلَّى أَمْرَكَ. | ٥ |
6 And he will bring forth thy justice as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
| يُظْهِرُ بَرَاءَتَكَ كَالنُّورِ، وَحَقَّكَ كَشَمْسِ الظَّهِيرَةِ. | ٦ |
7 Be subject to the Lord and pray to him Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things.
| اسْكُنْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ وَانْتَظِرْهُ بِصَبْرٍ، وَلَا تَغَرْ مِنَ الَّذِي يَنْجَحُ فِي مَسْعَاهُ، بِفَضْلِ مَكَائِدِهِ. | ٧ |
8 Cease from anger, and leave rage; have no emulation to do evil.
| كُفَّ عَنِ الْغَضَبِ، وَانْبُذِ السَّخَطَ، وَلَا تَتَهَوَّرْ لِئَلّا تَفْعَلَ الشَّرَّ. | ٨ |
9 For the evildoers shall be cut off: but they that wait upon the Lord shall inherit the land.
| لأَنَّ فَاعِلِي الشَّرِّ يُسْتَأْصَلُونَ. أَمَّا مُنْتَظِرُو الرَّبِّ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ. | ٩ |
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it.
| فَعَمَّا قَلِيلٍ (يَنْقَرِضُ) الشِّرِّيرُ، إِذْ تَطْلُبُهُ وَلَا تَجِدُهُ. | ١٠ |
11 But the meek shall inherit the land, and shall delight in abundance of peace.
| أَمَّا الْوُدَعَاءُ فَيَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَيَتَمَتَّعُونَ بِفَيْضِ السَّلامِ. | ١١ |
12 The sinner shall watch the just man: and shall gnash upon him with his teeth.
| يَكِيدُ الشِّرِّيرُ كَثِيراً لِلصِّدِّيقِ وَيَصِرُّ عَلَيْهِ بِأَسْنَانِهِ. | ١٢ |
13 But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foreseeth that his day shall come.
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَضْحَكُ مِنْهُ لأَنَّهُ يَرَى أَنَّ يَوْمَ عِقَابِهِ آتٍ. | ١٣ |
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword: they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart.
| قَدْ سَلَّ الأَشْرَارُ سُيُوفَهُمْ وَوَتَّرُوا أَقْوَاسَهُمْ لِيَصْرَعُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْفَقِيرَ، لِيَقْتُلُوا السَّالِكِينَ طَرِيقاً مُسْتَقِيمَةً. | ١٤ |
15 Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken.
| لَكِنَّ سُيُوفَهُمْ سَتَخْتَرِقُ قُلُوبَهُمْ وتَتَكَسَّرُ أَقْوَاسُهُمْ. | ١٥ |
16 Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.
| الْخَيْرُ الْقَلِيلُ الَّذِي يَمْلِكُهُ الصِّدِّيقُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ ثَرْوَةِ أَشْرَارٍ كَثِيرِينَ، | ١٦ |
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
| لأَنَّ سَوَاعِدَ الأَشْرَارِ سَتُكْسَرُ، أَمَّا الأَبْرَارُ فَالرَّبُّ يَسْنِدُهُمْ. | ١٧ |
18 The Lord knoweth the days of undefiled; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
| الرَّبُّ عَلِيمٌ بِأَيَّامِ الْكَامِلِينَ، وَمِيرَاثُهُمْ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ١٨ |
19 They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled:
| لَا يُخْزَوْنَ فِي زَمَانِ السُّوءِ، وَفِي أَيَّامِ الْجُوعِ يَشْبَعُونَ. | ١٩ |
20 Because the wicked shall perish. And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke.
| أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَيَهْلِكُونَ وَأَعْدَاءُ الرَّبِّ كَبَهَاءِ الْمَرَاعِي بَادُوا، انْتَهَوْا؛ كَالدُّخَانِ تَلاشَوْا. | ٢٠ |
21 The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; but the just sheweth mercy and shall give.
| يَقْتَرِضُ الشِّرِّيرُ وَلَا يَفِي، أَمَّا الصِّدِّيقُ فَيَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُعْطِي بِسَخَاءٍ. | ٢١ |
22 For such as bless him shall inherit the land: but such as curse him shall perish.
| فَالَّذِينَ يُبَارِكُهُمُ الرَّبُّ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ، وَالَّذِينَ يَلْعَنُهُمْ يُسْتَأْصَلُونَ. | ٢٢ |
23 With the Lord shall the steps of a man be directed, and he shall like well his way.
| الرَّبُّ يُثَبِّتُ خَطْوَاتِ الإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي تَسُرُّهُ طَرِيقُهُ. | ٢٣ |
24 When he shall fall he shall not be bruised, for the Lord putteth his hand under him.
| إِنْ تَعَثَّرَ لَا يَسْقُطُ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسْنِدُهُ بِيَدِهِ. | ٢٤ |
25 I have been young, and now am old; and I have not seen the just forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
| كُنْتُ صَبِيًّا، وَأَنَا الآنَ شَيْخٌ، وَمَا رَأَيْتُ صِدِّيقاً مَتْرُوكاً، وَلَا ذُرِّيَّةً لَهُ تَسْتَجْدِي خُبْزاً. | ٢٥ |
26 He sheweth mercy, and lendeth all the day long; and his seed shall be in blessing.
| يَتَرَأَّفُ الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَيُقْرِضُ الآخَرِينَ. وَتَكُونُ ذُرِّيَّتُهُ بَرَكَةً لِغَيْرِهِمْ. | ٢٦ |
27 Decline from evil and do good, and dwell for ever and ever.
| حِدْ عَنِ الشَّرِّ وَاصْنَعِ الْخَيْرَ، فَتَسْكُنَ مُطْمَئِنّاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢٧ |
28 For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints: they shall be preserved for ever. The unjust shall be punished, and the seed of the wicked shall perish.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُحِبُّ الْعَدْلَ، وَلَا يَتَخَلَّى عَنْ أَتْقِيَائِهِ، بَلْ يَحْفَظُهُمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. أَمَّا ذُرِّيَّةُ الأَشْرَارِ فَتَفْنَى. | ٢٨ |
29 But the just shall inherit the land, and shall dwell therein for evermore.
| الصِّدِّيقُونَ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَيَسْكُنُونَ فِيهَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢٩ |
30 The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom: and his tongue shall speak judgment.
| فَمُ الصِّدِّيقِ يَنْطِقُ دَائِماً بِالْحِكْمَةِ، وَيَتَفَوَّهُ بِكَلامِ الْحَقِّ | ٣٠ |
31 The law of his God is in his heart, and his steps shall not be supplanted.
| شَرِيعَةُ إِلَهِهِ ثَابِتَةٌ فِي قَلْبِهِ، فَلَا تَتَقَلْقَلُ خَطْوَاتُهُ. | ٣١ |
32 The wicked watcheth the just man, and seeketh to put him to death,
| يَتَرَبَّصُ الشِّرِّيرُ بِالصِّدِّيقِ وَيَسْعَى إِلَى قَتْلِهِ. | ٣٢ |
33 But the Lord will not leave in his hands; nor condemn him when he shall be judged.
| لَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ لَا يَدَعُهُ يَقَعُ فِي قَبْضَتِهِ، وَلَا يَدِينُهُ عِنْدَ مُحَاكَمَتِهِ. | ٣٣ |
34 Expect the Lord and keep his way: and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see.
| انْتَظِرِ الرَّبَّ وَاسْلُكْ دَائِماً فِي طَرِيقِهِ، فَيَرْفَعَكَ لِتَمْتَلِكَ الأَرْضَ، وَتَشْهَدَ انْقِرَاضَ الأَشْرَارِ. | ٣٤ |
35 I have seen the wicked highly exalted, and lifted up like the cedars of Libanus.
| قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الشِّرِّيرَ مُزْدَهِراً وَارِفاً كَالشَّجَرَةِ الْخَضْرَاءِ الْمُتَأَصِّلَةِ فِي تُرْبَةِ مَوْطِنِهَا، | ٣٥ |
36 And I passed by, and lo, he was not: and I sought him and his place was not found.
| ثُمَّ عَبَرَ وَمَضَى، وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ. فَتَّشْتُ عَنْهُ فَلَمْ أَعْثُرْ لَهُ عَلَى أَثَرٍ. | ٣٦ |
37 Keep innocence, and behold justice: for there are remnants for the peaceable man.
| لاحِظِ الْكَامِلَ وَانْظُرِ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَإِنَّ نِهَايَةَ ذَلِكَ الإِنْسَانِ تَكُونُ سَلاماً. | ٣٧ |
38 But the unjust shall be destroyed together: the remnants of the wicked shall perish.
| أَمَّا الْعُصَاةُ فَيُبَادُونَ جَمِيعاً. وَنِهَايَةُ الأَشْرَارِ انْدِثَارُهُمْ، | ٣٨ |
39 But the salvation of the just is from the Lord, and he is their protector in the time of trouble.
| لَكِنَّ خَلاصَ الأَبْرَارِ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ، فَهُوَ حِصْنُهُمْ فِي زَمَانِ الضِّيقِ. | ٣٩ |
40 And the Lord will help them and deliver them: and he will rescue them from the wicked, and save them, because they have hoped in him.
| يُعِينُهُمُ الرَّبُّ حَقّاً، وَيُنْقِذُهُمْ مِنَ الأَشْرَارِ، وَيُخَلِّصُهُمْ لأَنَّهُمُ احْتَمَوْا بِهِ. | ٤٠ |
