Psalms 37
1 BY DAVID. [ALEPH-BET] Do not fret because of evildoers, Do not be envious against doers of iniquity,
| لِدَاوُدَ لَا يُقْلِقْكَ أَمْرُ الأَشْرَارِ، وَلَا تَحْسِدْ فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ، | ١ |
2 For they are cut off speedily as grass, And fade as the greenness of the tender grass.
| فَإِنَّهُمْ مِثْلَ الْحَشِيشِ سَرِيعاً يَذْوُونَ، وَكَالْعُشْبِ الأَخْضَرِ يَذْبُلُونَ. | ٢ |
3 Trust in YHWH, and do good, Dwell [in] the land, and enjoy faithfulness,
| تَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ وَاصْنَعِ الْخَيْرَ. اسْكُنْ فِي الأَرْضِ (مُطْمَئِنّاً) وَرَاعِ الأَمَانَةَ. | ٣ |
4 And delight yourself on YHWH, And He gives to you the petitions of your heart.
| ابْتَهِجْ بِالرَّبِّ فَيَمْنَحَكَ بُغْيَةَ قَلْبِكَ. | ٤ |
5 Roll your way on YHWH, And trust on Him, and He works,
| سَلِّمْ لِلرَّبِّ طَرِيقَكَ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَيْهِ فَيَتَوَلَّى أَمْرَكَ. | ٥ |
6 And has brought out your righteousness as light, And your judgment as noon-day.
| يُظْهِرُ بَرَاءَتَكَ كَالنُّورِ، وَحَقَّكَ كَشَمْسِ الظَّهِيرَةِ. | ٦ |
7 Be silent for YHWH, and stay yourself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making his way prosperous, Because of a man doing wicked schemes.
| اسْكُنْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ وَانْتَظِرْهُ بِصَبْرٍ، وَلَا تَغَرْ مِنَ الَّذِي يَنْجَحُ فِي مَسْعَاهُ، بِفَضْلِ مَكَائِدِهِ. | ٧ |
8 Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Do not fret yourself to only do evil.
| كُفَّ عَنِ الْغَضَبِ، وَانْبُذِ السَّخَطَ، وَلَا تَتَهَوَّرْ لِئَلّا تَفْعَلَ الشَّرَّ. | ٨ |
9 For evildoers are cut off, As for those waiting on YHWH, they possess the land.
| لأَنَّ فَاعِلِي الشَّرِّ يُسْتَأْصَلُونَ. أَمَّا مُنْتَظِرُو الرَّبِّ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ. | ٩ |
10 And yet a little [while], and the wicked is not, And you have considered his place, and it is not.
| فَعَمَّا قَلِيلٍ (يَنْقَرِضُ) الشِّرِّيرُ، إِذْ تَطْلُبُهُ وَلَا تَجِدُهُ. | ١٠ |
11 And the humble possess the land, And they have delighted themselves In the abundance of peace.
| أَمَّا الْوُدَعَاءُ فَيَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَيَتَمَتَّعُونَ بِفَيْضِ السَّلامِ. | ١١ |
12 The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing his teeth against him.
| يَكِيدُ الشِّرِّيرُ كَثِيراً لِلصِّدِّيقِ وَيَصِرُّ عَلَيْهِ بِأَسْنَانِهِ. | ١٢ |
13 The Lord laughs at him, For He has seen that his day comes.
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَضْحَكُ مِنْهُ لأَنَّهُ يَرَى أَنَّ يَوْمَ عِقَابِهِ آتٍ. | ١٣ |
14 The wicked have opened a sword, And they have bent their bow, To cause the poor and needy to fall, To slaughter the upright of the way.
| قَدْ سَلَّ الأَشْرَارُ سُيُوفَهُمْ وَوَتَّرُوا أَقْوَاسَهُمْ لِيَصْرَعُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْفَقِيرَ، لِيَقْتُلُوا السَّالِكِينَ طَرِيقاً مُسْتَقِيمَةً. | ١٤ |
15 Their sword enters into their own heart, And their bows are shattered.
| لَكِنَّ سُيُوفَهُمْ سَتَخْتَرِقُ قُلُوبَهُمْ وتَتَكَسَّرُ أَقْوَاسُهُمْ. | ١٥ |
16 Better [is] the little of the righteous, Than the store of many wicked.
| الْخَيْرُ الْقَلِيلُ الَّذِي يَمْلِكُهُ الصِّدِّيقُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ ثَرْوَةِ أَشْرَارٍ كَثِيرِينَ، | ١٦ |
17 For the arms of the wicked are shattered, And YHWH is sustaining the righteous.
| لأَنَّ سَوَاعِدَ الأَشْرَارِ سَتُكْسَرُ، أَمَّا الأَبْرَارُ فَالرَّبُّ يَسْنِدُهُمْ. | ١٧ |
18 YHWH knows the days of the perfect, And their inheritance is for all time.
| الرَّبُّ عَلِيمٌ بِأَيَّامِ الْكَامِلِينَ، وَمِيرَاثُهُمْ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ١٨ |
19 They are not ashamed in a time of evil, And they are satisfied in days of famine.
| لَا يُخْزَوْنَ فِي زَمَانِ السُّوءِ، وَفِي أَيَّامِ الْجُوعِ يَشْبَعُونَ. | ١٩ |
20 But the wicked perish, and the enemies of YHWH, Have been consumed as the preciousness of lambs, They have been consumed in smoke.
| أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَيَهْلِكُونَ وَأَعْدَاءُ الرَّبِّ كَبَهَاءِ الْمَرَاعِي بَادُوا، انْتَهَوْا؛ كَالدُّخَانِ تَلاشَوْا. | ٢٠ |
21 The wicked is borrowing and does not repay, And the righteous is gracious and giving.
| يَقْتَرِضُ الشِّرِّيرُ وَلَا يَفِي، أَمَّا الصِّدِّيقُ فَيَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُعْطِي بِسَخَاءٍ. | ٢١ |
22 For His blessed ones possess the land, And His reviled ones are cut off.
| فَالَّذِينَ يُبَارِكُهُمُ الرَّبُّ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ، وَالَّذِينَ يَلْعَنُهُمْ يُسْتَأْصَلُونَ. | ٢٢ |
23 The steps of a man [are] from YHWH, They have been prepared, And He desires his way.
| الرَّبُّ يُثَبِّتُ خَطْوَاتِ الإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي تَسُرُّهُ طَرِيقُهُ. | ٢٣ |
24 When he falls, he is not cast down, For YHWH is sustaining his hand.
| إِنْ تَعَثَّرَ لَا يَسْقُطُ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسْنِدُهُ بِيَدِهِ. | ٢٤ |
25 I have been young, I have also become old, And I have not seen the righteous forsaken, And his seed seeking bread.
| كُنْتُ صَبِيًّا، وَأَنَا الآنَ شَيْخٌ، وَمَا رَأَيْتُ صِدِّيقاً مَتْرُوكاً، وَلَا ذُرِّيَّةً لَهُ تَسْتَجْدِي خُبْزاً. | ٢٥ |
26 All the day he is gracious and lending, And his seed [is] for a blessing.
| يَتَرَأَّفُ الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَيُقْرِضُ الآخَرِينَ. وَتَكُونُ ذُرِّيَّتُهُ بَرَكَةً لِغَيْرِهِمْ. | ٢٦ |
27 Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell for all time.
| حِدْ عَنِ الشَّرِّ وَاصْنَعِ الْخَيْرَ، فَتَسْكُنَ مُطْمَئِنّاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢٧ |
28 For YHWH is loving judgment, And He does not forsake His saintly ones, They have been kept for all time, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُحِبُّ الْعَدْلَ، وَلَا يَتَخَلَّى عَنْ أَتْقِيَائِهِ، بَلْ يَحْفَظُهُمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. أَمَّا ذُرِّيَّةُ الأَشْرَارِ فَتَفْنَى. | ٢٨ |
29 The righteous possess the land, And they dwell on it forever.
| الصِّدِّيقُونَ يَرِثُونَ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَيَسْكُنُونَ فِيهَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢٩ |
30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, And his tongue speaks judgment.
| فَمُ الصِّدِّيقِ يَنْطِقُ دَائِماً بِالْحِكْمَةِ، وَيَتَفَوَّهُ بِكَلامِ الْحَقِّ | ٣٠ |
31 The law of his God [is] his heart, His steps do not slide.
| شَرِيعَةُ إِلَهِهِ ثَابِتَةٌ فِي قَلْبِهِ، فَلَا تَتَقَلْقَلُ خَطْوَاتُهُ. | ٣١ |
32 The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking to put him to death.
| يَتَرَبَّصُ الشِّرِّيرُ بِالصِّدِّيقِ وَيَسْعَى إِلَى قَتْلِهِ. | ٣٢ |
33 YHWH does not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in his being judged.
| لَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ لَا يَدَعُهُ يَقَعُ فِي قَبْضَتِهِ، وَلَا يَدِينُهُ عِنْدَ مُحَاكَمَتِهِ. | ٣٣ |
34 Look to YHWH, and keep His way, And He exalts you to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off—you see!
| انْتَظِرِ الرَّبَّ وَاسْلُكْ دَائِماً فِي طَرِيقِهِ، فَيَرْفَعَكَ لِتَمْتَلِكَ الأَرْضَ، وَتَشْهَدَ انْقِرَاضَ الأَشْرَارِ. | ٣٤ |
35 I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green native plant,
| قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الشِّرِّيرَ مُزْدَهِراً وَارِفاً كَالشَّجَرَةِ الْخَضْرَاءِ الْمُتَأَصِّلَةِ فِي تُرْبَةِ مَوْطِنِهَا، | ٣٥ |
36 And he passes away, and behold, he is not, And I seek him, and he is not found!
| ثُمَّ عَبَرَ وَمَضَى، وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ. فَتَّشْتُ عَنْهُ فَلَمْ أَعْثُرْ لَهُ عَلَى أَثَرٍ. | ٣٦ |
37 Observe the perfect, and see the upright, For the latter end of each [is] peace.
| لاحِظِ الْكَامِلَ وَانْظُرِ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَإِنَّ نِهَايَةَ ذَلِكَ الإِنْسَانِ تَكُونُ سَلاماً. | ٣٧ |
38 And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off.
| أَمَّا الْعُصَاةُ فَيُبَادُونَ جَمِيعاً. وَنِهَايَةُ الأَشْرَارِ انْدِثَارُهُمْ، | ٣٨ |
39 And the salvation of the righteous [is] from YHWH, Their strong place in a time of adversity.
| لَكِنَّ خَلاصَ الأَبْرَارِ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ، فَهُوَ حِصْنُهُمْ فِي زَمَانِ الضِّيقِ. | ٣٩ |
40 And YHWH helps them and delivers them, He delivers them from the wicked, And saves them, Because they trusted in Him!
| يُعِينُهُمُ الرَّبُّ حَقّاً، وَيُنْقِذُهُمْ مِنَ الأَشْرَارِ، وَيُخَلِّصُهُمْ لأَنَّهُمُ احْتَمَوْا بِهِ. | ٤٠ |
