< Psalms 21 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, the king is joyful in Your strength, How greatly he rejoices in Your salvation.
لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ مِنْ نَظْمِ دَاوُدَ رَبُّ بِقُوَّتِكَ يَفْرَحُ الْمَلِكُ، وَمَا أَعْظَمَ بَهْجَتَهُ بِخَلاصِكَ!١
2 You gave the desire of his heart to him, And You have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
لَقَدْ وَهَبْتَهُ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِهِ وَلَمْ تَحْرِمْهُ مِنْ طِلْبَةِ شَفَتَيْهِ.٢
3 For You put blessings of goodness before him, You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
بَادَرْتَهُ بِبَرَكَاتِ الْخَيْرِ، وَوَضَعْتَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ تَاجاً مِنَ الذَّهَبِ النَّقِيِّ!٣
4 He has asked for life from You, You have given length of days to him, For all time and forever.
طَلَبَ مِنْكَ الْحَيَاةَ فَوَهَبْتَهَا لَهُ، إِذْ أَطَلْتَ عُمْرَهُ إِلَى أَبَدِ الدُّهُورِ.٤
5 Great [is] his glory in Your salvation, You place splendor and majesty on him.
عَظِيمٌ مَجْدُهُ بِفَضْلِ خَلاصِكَ، بِالْعِزَّةِ وَالْبَهَاءِ كَلَّلْتَهُ.٥
6 For You make him blessings forever, You cause him to rejoice with joy, By Your countenance.
لأَنَّكَ جَعَلْتَهُ أَكْثَرَ الْمُبَارَكِينَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. تَغْمُرُهُ بِفَيْضِ الْفَرَحِ فِي حَضْرَتِكَ.٦
7 For the king is trusting in YHWH, And in the kindness of the Most High he is not moved.
لأَنَّ الْمَلِكَ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، وَبِنِعْمَةِ الْعَلِيِّ لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ.٧
8 Your hand comes to all Your enemies, Your right hand finds Your haters.
يَدُكَ حَتْماً تَنَالُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ، وَيُمْنَاكَ حَقّاً تَظْفَرُ بِمُبْغِضِيكَ.٨
9 You make them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Your presence. YHWH swallows them in His anger, And fire devours them.
حِينَ يَتَجَلَّى وَجْهُكَ تُحْرِقُهُمْ كَمَا بِمَوْقِدٍ مُشْتَعِلٍ. تَلْتَهِمُهُمْ فِي غَضَبِكَ فَتَأْكُلُهُمُ النَّارُ.٩
10 You destroy their fruit from earth, And their seed from the sons of men.
تُبِيدُ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ مِنَ الأَرْضِ وَنَسْلَهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي آدَمَ.١٠
11 For they stretched out evil against You, They devised a wicked scheme, they do not prevail,
لَقَدْ تَآمَرُوا لِلإِسَاءَةِ إِلَيْكَ، وَدَبَّرُوا مَكِيدَةً شِرِّيرَةً لَمْ يُفْلِحُوا فِيهَا.١١
12 For You make them turn their back, When You prepare Your strings against their faces.
لأَنَّكَ تَجْعَلُهُمْ يُدْبِرُونَ لِلْهَرَبِ، عِنْدَمَا تَشُدُّ وَتَرَ الْقَوْسِ نَحْوَ وُجُوهِهِمْ.١٢
13 Be exalted, O YHWH, in Your strength, We sing and we praise Your might!
ارْتَفِعْ يَا رَبُّ بِقُوَّتِكَ، فَنَتَرَنَّمَ وَنَتَغَنَّى بِقُدْرَتِكَ.١٣
