< Psalms 90 >

1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
صَلَاةٌ لِمُوسَى رَجُلِ ٱللهِ يَارَبُّ، مَلْجَأً كُنْتَ لَنَا فِي دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ.١
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تُولَدَ ٱلْجِبَالُ، أَوْ أَبْدَأْتَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلْمَسْكُونَةَ، مُنْذُ ٱلْأَزَلِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ أَنْتَ ٱللهُ.٢
3 You turn man to destruction; and say, Return, you children of men.
تُرْجِعُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ إِلَى ٱلْغُبَارِ وَتَقُولُ: «ٱرْجِعُوا يَا بَنِي آدَمَ».٣
4 For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
لِأَنَّ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ مِثْلُ يَوْمِ أَمْسِ بَعْدَ مَا عَبَرَ، وَكَهَزِيعٍ مِنَ ٱللَّيْلِ.٤
5 You carry them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which grows up.
جَرَفْتَهُمْ. كَسِنَةٍ يَكُونُونَ. بِٱلْغَدَاةِ كَعُشْبٍ يَزُولُ.٥
6 In the morning it flourishes, and grows up; in the evening it is cut down, and wither.
بِٱلْغَدَاةِ يُزْهِرُ فَيَزُولُ. عِنْدَ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يُجَزُّ فَيَيْبَسُ.٦
7 For we are consumed by your anger, and by your wrath are we troubled.
لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ فَنِينَا بِسَخَطِكَ وَبِغَضَبِكَ ٱرْتَعَبْنَا.٧
8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your countenance.
قَدْ جَعَلْتَ آثَامَنَا أَمَامَكَ، خَفِيَّاتِنَا فِي ضَوْءِ وَجْهِكَ.٨
9 For all our days are passed away in your wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
لِأَنَّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِنَا قَدِ ٱنْقَضَتْ بِرِجْزِكَ. أَفْنَيْنَا سِنِينَا كَقِصَّةٍ.٩
10 The days of our years are three score years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
أَيَّامُ سِنِينَا هِيَ سَبْعُونَ سَنَةً، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مَعَ ٱلْقُوَّةِ فَثَمَانُونَ سَنَةً، وَأَفْخَرُهَا تَعَبٌ وَبَلِيَّةٌ، لِأَنَّهَا تُقْرَضُ سَرِيعًا فَنَطِيرُ.١٠
11 Who knows the power of your anger? even according to your fear, so is your wrath.
مَنْ يَعْرِفُ قُوَّةَ غَضَبَكَ؟ وَكَخَوْفِكَ سَخَطُكَ.١١
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
إِحْصَاءَ أَيَّامِنَا هَكَذَا عَلِّمْنَا فَنُؤْتَى قَلْبَ حِكْمَةٍ.١٢
13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent you concerning your servants.
اِرْجِعْ يَارَبُّ، حَتَّى مَتَى؟ وَتَرَأَّفْ عَلَى عَبِيدِكَ.١٣
14 O satisfy us early with your mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
أَشْبِعْنَا بِٱلْغَدَاةِ مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ، فَنَبْتَهِجَ وَنَفْرَحَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِنَا.١٤
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein you have afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
فَرِّحْنَا كَٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا أَذْلَلْتَنَا، كَٱلسِّنِينِ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْنَا فِيهَا شَرًّا.١٥
16 Let your work appear to your servants, and your glory to their children.
لِيَظْهَرْ فِعْلُكَ لِعَبِيدِكَ، وَجَلَالُكَ لِبَنِيهِمْ.١٦
17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be on us: and establish you the work of our hands on us; yes, the work of our hands establish you it.
وَلْتَكُنْ نِعْمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا عَلَيْنَا، وَعَمَلَ أَيْدِينَا ثَبِّتْ عَلَيْنَا، وَعَمَلَ أَيْدِينَا ثَبِّتْهُ.١٧
