Psalms 7
1 A SHIGGAION OF DAVID, THAT HE SUNG TO YHWH CONCERNING THE WORDS OF CUSH, A BENJAMITE. O YHWH, my God, in You I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.
| قَصِيدَةُ حُزْنٍ نَظَمَهَا دَاوُدُ وَرَنَّمَهَا لِلرَّبِّ رَدّاً لِلتُّهْمَةِ الَّتِي رَمَاهُ بِها كُوشُ الْبَنْيَامِينِيُّ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، إِلَيْكَ الْتَجَأْتُ، فَأَنْقِذْنِي وَنَجِّنِي مِنْ جَمِيعِ مُطَارِدِيَّ، | ١ |
2 Lest he tear my soul as a lion, Tearing, and there is no deliverer.
| لِئَلّا يَفْتَرِسَ الْعَدُوُّ نَفْسِي كَالأَسَدِ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُنْقِذُنِي. | ٢ |
3 O YHWH, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,
| أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدِ اقْتَرَفْتُ هَذِهِ الإِسَاءَةَ، وَكَانَتْ يَدَايَ قَدِ ارْتَكَبَتَا هَذَا الإِثْمَ، | ٣ |
4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw my adversary without cause,
| إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ أَسَأْتُ لِمَنْ أَحْسَنَ إِلَيَّ وَسَلَبْتُ عَدُوِّي مِنْ غَيْرِ سَبَبٍ، | ٤ |
5 [Then] an enemy pursues my soul, and overtakes, And treads down my life to the earth, And places my glory in the dust. (Selah)
| إِذَنْ فَلْيُطَارِدِ الْعَدُوُّ نَفْسِي ويَنْزِعْهَا مِنِّي، وَلْيَدُسْ فِي الأَرْضِ حَيَاتِي، وَيُعَفِّرْ فِي التُّرَابِ شَرَفِي. | ٥ |
6 Rise, O YHWH, in Your anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of my adversaries, And awake Yourself for me: You have commanded judgment.
| انْهَضْ يَا رَبُّ فِي احْتِدَامِ غَضَبِكَ، وَانْتَصِبْ فِي وَجْهِ سَخَطِ خُصُومِي، يَا مَنْ أَوْصَيْتَ بِالْعَدْلِ. | ٦ |
7 And a congregation of peoples surround You, And over it turn back on high.
| لِتُحِطْ بِكَ جَمَاعَةُ الشُّعُوبِ فَتَحْكُمَهَا مِنْ مَنَصَّةِ الْقَضَاءِ الْعَالِيَةِ. | ٧ |
8 YHWH judges the peoples; Judge me, O YHWH, According to my righteousness, And according to my integrity [that is] on me.
| إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَدِينُ الأُمَمَ. اقضِ لِي يَا رَبُّ كَحَقِّي، بِحَسَبِ مَا فِيَّ مِنْ كَمَالٍ. | ٨ |
9 Please let the evil of the wicked be ended, And establish the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.
| ضَعْ حَدّاً لِشَرِّ الأَشْرَارِ، وَأَثْبِتْ بَرَاءَةَ الأَبْرَارِ، أَيُّهَا الإِلَهُ الْعَادِلُ فَاحِصُ الْقُلُوبِ وَالدَّخَائِلِ. | ٩ |
10 My shield [is] on God, Savior of the upright in heart!
| مَلْجَإِي عِنْدَ اللهِ مُخَلِّصِ مُسْتَقِيمِي الْقُلُوبِ. | ١٠ |
11 God [is] judging right, And He is not angry at all times.
| اللهُ قَاضٍ عَادِلٌ، وَهُوَ إِلَهٌ يَسْخَطُ عَلَى الأَشْرَارِ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ. | ١١ |
12 If [one] does not turn, He sharpens His sword, He has bent His bow [and] He prepares it,
| صَقَلَ سَيْفَهُ لِيَضْرِبَ بِهِ الشِّرِّيرَ الَّذِي لَا يَتُوبُ. وَتَّرَ قَوْسَهُ وَهَيَّأَهَا. | ١٢ |
13 Indeed, He has prepared for Himself Instruments of death, He makes His arrows for burning pursuers.
| أَعَدَّ لَهُ الأَسْلِحَةَ الْقَتَّالَةَ، وَجَعَلَ سِهَامَهُ مُحْرِقَةً. | ١٣ |
14 Behold, he travails [with] iniquity, And he has conceived perverseness, And has brought forth falsehood.
| هُوَذَا الْعَدُوُّ يَتَمَخَّضُ بِالإِثْمِ، يَحْبَلُ بِالأَذَى، وَيَلِدُ كَذِباً. | ١٤ |
15 He has prepared a pit, and he digs it, And he falls into a ditch he makes.
| حَفَرَ بِئْراً وَعَمَّقَهَا، فَسَقَطَ فِيهَا. | ١٥ |
16 His perverseness returns on his head, And his violence comes down on his crown.
| شَرُّهُ يَرْتَدُّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَظُلْمُهُ يَهْبِطُ عَلَى هَامَتِهِ. | ١٦ |
17 I thank YHWH, According to His righteousness, And I praise the Name of YHWH Most High!
| إِنِّي أَحْمَدُ الرَّبَّ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَدَالَتِهِ، وَأَتَرَنَّمُ لاسْمِ الرَّبِّ العَلِيِّ. | ١٧ |
