Psalms 16
1 Michtam of David. Keep me, O God; for I have taken refuge in Thee.
| لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ احْفَظْنِي يَا اللهُ، فَإِنِّي مُتَوَكِّلٌ عَلَيْكَ. | ١ |
2 I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my Lord; I have no good but in Thee';
| قُلْتُ لِلرَّبِّ: أَنْتَ سَيِّدِي، وَلَا خَيْرَ لِي بِمَعْزِلٍ عَنْكَ. | ٢ |
3 As for the holy that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
| كُلُّ بَهْجَتِي فِي قِدِّيسِي الأَرْضِ وَأَفَاضِلِهَا. | ٣ |
4 Let the idols of them be multiplied that make suit unto another; their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
| تَتَكَاثَرُ أَوْجَاعُ الْمُتَهَافِتِينَ وَرَاءَ غَيْرِكَ. أَمَّا أَنَا فَتَقْدِمَاتُ سَكَائِبِهِمِ الدَّمَوِيَّةِ لَا أُقَدِّمُ، وَلَا أَذْكُرُ أَسْمَاءَ أَوْثَانِهِمْ بِشَفَتَيَّ. | ٤ |
5 O LORD, the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup, Thou maintainest my lot.
| الرَّبُّ نَصِيبِي وَمِيرَاثِي وَكَأْسُ ارْتِوَائِي. أَنْتَ حَافِظُ قِسْمَتِي. | ٥ |
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
| فِي أَرْضٍ بَهِيجَةٍ وَقَعَتْ قِسْمَةُ حِصَّتِي. فَمَا أَفْضَلَ هَذَا الْمِيرَاثَ عِنْدِي! | ٦ |
7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel; yea, in the night seasons my reins instruct me.
| أُبَارِكُ الرَّبَّ نَاصِحِي، وَفِي اللَّيْلِ أَيْضاً يُرْشِدُنِي ضَمِيرِي. | ٧ |
8 I have set the LORD always before me; surely He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
| جَعَلْتُ الرَّبَّ أَمَامِي دَائِماً فَإِنَّهُ عَنْ يَمِينِي فَلَا أَتَزَعْزَعُ. | ٨ |
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also dwelleth in safety;
| لِذَلِكَ فَرِحَ قَلْبِي وَتَهَلَّلَ لِسَانِي حَتَّى إِنَّ جَسَدِي سَيَرْقُدُ عَلَى رَجَاءٍ، | ٩ |
10 For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. (Sheol h7585)
| لأَنَّكَ لَنْ تَتْرُكَ نَفْسِي فِي هُوَّةِ الأَمْوَاتِ وَلَنْ تَدَعَ وَحِيدَكَ الْقُدُّوسَ يَنَالُ مِنْهُ الْفَسَادُ. (Sheol h7585) | ١٠ |
11 Thou makest me to know the path of life; in Thy presence is fulness of joy, in Thy right hand bliss for evermore.
| هَدَيْتَنِي سُبُلَ الْحَيَاةِ: فَإِنَّ مِلْءَ الْبَهْجَةِ فِي حَضْرَتِكَ، وَفِي يَمِينِكَ مَسَرَّاتٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ. | ١١ |
