Psalms 38
1 A Psalm of David for remembrance concerning the Sabbath-day. O Lord, rebuke me not in your wrath, neither chasten me in your anger.
| مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِلتَّذْكِيرِ يَا رَبُّ لَا تُوَبِّخْنِي بِغَضَبِكَ، وَلَا تُؤَدِّبْنِي بِسَخَطِكَ، | ١ |
2 For your weapons are fixed in me, and you have pressed your hand heavily upon me.
| لأَنَّ سِهَامَكَ قَدْ أَصَابَتْنِي وَضَرَبَاتِكَ قَدْ ثَقُلَتْ عَلَيَّ. | ٢ |
3 For there is no health in my flesh because of your anger; there is no peace to my bones because of my sins.
| اعْتَلَّ جَسَدِي لِفَرْطِ غَضَبِكَ عَلَيَّ. وَبَلِيَتْ عِظَامِي بِسَبَبِ خَطِيئَتِي. | ٣ |
4 For my transgressions have gone over mine head: they have pressed heavily upon me like a weighty burden.
| طَمَتْ آثَامِي فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. وَصَارَتْ كَعِبْءٍ ثَقِيلٍ لَا طَاقَةَ لِي عَلَى حَمْلِهِ. | ٤ |
5 My bruises have become noisome and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
| أَنْتَنَتْ جِرَاحِي وَسَالَ صَدِيدُهَا بِسَبَبِ جَهَالَتِي. | ٥ |
6 I have been wretched and bowed down continually: I went with a mourning countenance all the day.
| انْحَنَيْتُ وَالْتَوَيْتُ. وَدَامَ نَحِيبِي طُولَ النَّهَارِ. | ٦ |
7 For my soul is filled with mockings; and there is no health in my flesh.
| امْتلأَ دَاخِلِي بِأَلَمٍ حَارِقٍ، فَلَا صِحَّةَ فِي جَسَدِي. | ٧ |
8 I have been afflicted and brought down exceedingly: I have roared for the groaning of my heart.
| أَنَا وَاهِنٌ وَمَسْحُوقٌ إِلَى الْغَايَةِ، وَأَئِنُّ مِنْ أَوْجَاعِ قَلْبِي الدَّفِينَةِ. | ٨ |
9 But all my desire is before you; and my groaning is not hidden from you.
| أَمَامَكَ يَا رَبُّ كُلُّ تَأَوُّهِي، وَتَنَهُّدِي مَكْشُوفٌ لَدَيْكَ. | ٩ |
10 My heart is troubled, my strength has failed me; and the light of mine eyes is not with me.
| خَفَقَ قَلْبِي وَفَارَقَتْنِي قُوَّتِي، وَاضْمَحَلَّ فِيَّ نُورُ عَيْنَيَّ. | ١٠ |
11 My friends and my neighbors drew near before me, and stood still; and my nearest of kin stood afar off.
| وَقَفَ أَحِبَّائِي وَأَصْحَابِي مُسْتَنْكِفِينَ مِنِّي بِسَبَبِ مُصِيبَتِي، وَتَنَحَّى أَقَارِبِي عَنِّي. | ١١ |
12 While they pressed hard upon me that sought my soul: and they that sought my hurt spoke vanities, and devised deceits all the day.
| نَصَبَ السَّاعُونَ لِقَتْلِي الْفِخَاخَ، وَطَالِبُو أَذِيَّتِي تَوَعَّدُوا بِدَمَارِي، وَتَآمَرُوا طُولَ النَّهَارِ لِلإِيقَاعِ بِي. | ١٢ |
13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and was as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ كُنْتُ كَأَصَمَّ، لَا يَسْمَعُ، وَكَأَخْرَسَ لَا يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ. | ١٣ |
14 And I was as a man that hears not, and who has no reproofs in his mouth.
| كُنْتُ كَمَنْ لَا يَسْمَعُ، وَكَمَنْ لَيْسَ فِي فَمِهِ حُجَّةٌ. | ١٤ |
15 For I hoped in you, O Lord: you will hear, O Lord my God.
| لأَنِّي قَدْ وَضَعْتُ فِيكَ رَجَائِي، وَأَنْتَ تَسْتَجِيبُنِي يَا رَبُّ يَا إِلَهِي. | ١٥ |
16 For I said, Lest mine enemies rejoice against me: for when my feet were moved, they spoke boastingly against me.
| قُلْتُ: «لَا تَدَعْهُمْ يَشْمَتُونَ بِي فَحَالَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي تَغَطْرَسُوا عَلَيَّ» | ١٦ |
17 For I am ready for plagues, and my grief is continually before me.
| لأَنِّي أَكَادُ أَتَعَثَّرُ، وَوَجَعِي دَائِماً أَمَامَ نَاظِرِي. | ١٧ |
18 For I will declare mine iniquity, and be distressed for my sin.
| أَعْتَرِفُ جَهْراً بِإِثْمِي، وأَحْزَنُ مِنْ أَجْلِ خَطِيئَتِي. | ١٨ |
19 But mine enemies live, and are mightier than I: and they that hate me unjustly are multiplied.
| أَمَّا أَعْدَائِي فَيَفِيضُونَ حَيَوِيَّةً. تَجَبَّرُوا وَكَثُرَ الَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي ظُلْماً. | ١٩ |
20 They that reward evil for good slandered me; because I followed righteousness.
| وَالَّذِينَ يُجَازُونَ الْخَيْرَ بِالشَّرِّ يُقَاوِمُونَنِي لأَنِّي أَتْبَعُ الصَّلاحَ. | ٢٠ |
21 Forsake me not, O Lord my God: depart not from me.
| لَا تَنْبِذْنِي يَا رَبُّ. يَا إِلَهِي لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. | ٢١ |
22 Draw near to my help, O Lord of my salvation.
| أَسْرِعْ لِنَجْدَتِي يَا رَبُّ يَا مُخَلِّصِي. | ٢٢ |
