Psalms 71
1 In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, Do not let me be disappointed for all time.
| بِكَ يَارَبُّ ٱحْتَمَيْتُ، فَلَا أَخْزَى إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. | ١ |
2 You deliver me in Your righteousness, And cause me to escape, Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
| بِعَدْلِكَ نَجِّنِي وَأَنْقِذْنِي. أَمِلْ إِلَيَّ أُذْنَكَ وَخَلِّصْنِي. | ٢ |
3 Be a rock to me—a habitation, To go in continually, You have given command to save me, For You [are] my rock and my bulwark.
| كُنْ لِي صَخْرَةَ مَلْجَإٍ أَدْخُلُهُ دَائِمًا. أَمَرْتَ بِخَلَاصِي لِأَنَّكَ صَخْرَتِي وَحِصْنِي. | ٣ |
4 O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.
| يَا إِلَهِي، نَجِّنِي مِنْ يَدِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، مِنْ كَفِّ فَاعِلِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلظَّالِمِ. | ٤ |
5 For You [are] my hope, O Lord YHWH, My trust from my youth.
| لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَجَائِي يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلرَّبَّ، مُتَّكَلِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ. | ٥ |
6 I have been supported from the womb by You, You cut me out from my mother’s bowels, My praise [is] continually in You.
| عَلَيْكَ ٱسْتَنَدْتُ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، وَأَنْتَ مُخْرِجِي مِنْ أَحْشَاءِ أُمِّي. بِكَ تَسْبِيحِي دَائِمًا. | ٦ |
7 I have been as a wonder to many, And You [are] my strong refuge.
| صِرْتُ كَآيَةٍ لِكَثِيرِينَ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَمَلْجَإِي ٱلْقَوِيُّ. | ٧ |
8 My mouth is filled [with] Your praise, All the day [with] Your beauty.
| يَمْتَلِئُ فَمِي مِنْ تَسْبِيحِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ مِنْ مَجْدِكَ. | ٨ |
9 Do not cast me off at the time of old age, Do not forsake me according to the consumption of my power.
| لَا تَرْفُضْنِي فِي زَمَنِ ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ. لَا تَتْرُكْنِي عِنْدَ فَنَاءِ قُوَّتِي. | ٩ |
10 For my enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,
| لِأَنَّ أَعْدَائِي تَقَاوَلُوا عَلَيَّ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَرْصُدُونَ نَفْسِي تَآمَرُوا مَعًا. | ١٠ |
11 Saying, “God has forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.”
| قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ تَرَكَهُ. ٱلْحَقُوهُ وَأَمْسِكُوهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَا مُنْقِذَ لَهُ». | ١١ |
12 O God, do not be far from me, O my God, make haste for my help.
| يَا ٱللهُ، لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. يَا إِلَهِي، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ. | ١٢ |
13 They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,
| لِيَخْزَ وَيَفْنَ مُخَاصِمُو نَفْسِي. لِيَلْبَسِ ٱلْعَارَ وَٱلْخَجَلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا. | ١٣ |
14 And I continually wait with hope, And have added to all Your praise.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَرْجُو دَائِمًا، وَأَزِيدُ عَلَى كُلِّ تَسْبِيحِكَ. | ١٤ |
15 My mouth recounts Your righteousness, All the day Your salvation, For I have not known the numbers.
| فَمِي يُحَدِّثُ بِعَدْلِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ بِخَلَاصِكَ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ لَهَا أَعْدَادًا. | ١٥ |
16 I come in [the] might of Lord YHWH, I mention Your righteousness—Yours alone.
| آتِي بِجَبَرُوتِ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. أَذْكُرُ بِرَّكَ وَحْدَكَ. | ١٦ |
17 God, You have taught me from my youth, And until now I declare Your wonders.
| اَللَّهُمَّ، قَدْ عَلَّمْتَنِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ، وَإِلَى ٱلْآنَ أُخْبِرُ بِعَجَائِبِكَ. | ١٧ |
18 And also to old age and grey hairs, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to a generation, Your might to everyone that comes.
| وَأَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ وَٱلشَّيْبِيَا ٱللهُ لَا تَتْرُكْنِي، حَتَّى أُخْبِرَ بِذِرَاعِكَ ٱلْجِيلَ ٱلْمُقْبِلَ، وَبِقُوَّتِكَ كُلَّ آتٍ. | ١٨ |
19 And Your righteousness, O God, [is] to the heights, Because You have done great things, O God, who [is] like You?
| وَبِرُّكَ إِلَى ٱلْعَلْيَاءِ يَا ٱللهُ، ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ ٱلْعَظَائِمَ. يَا ٱللهُ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟ | ١٩ |
20 Because You have showed me many and sad distresses, You turn back—You revive me, And from the depths of the earth, You turn back—You bring me up.
| أَنْتَ ٱلَّذِي أَرَيْتَنَا ضِيقَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً وَرَدِيئَةً، تَعُودُ فَتُحْيِينَا، وَمِنْ أَعْمَاقِ ٱلْأَرْضِ تَعُودُ فَتُصْعِدُنَا. | ٢٠ |
21 You increase my greatness, And You surround—You comfort me,
| تَزِيدُ عَظَمَتِي وَتَرْجِعُ فَتُعَزِّينِي. | ٢١ |
22 I also thank You with a vessel of stringed instrument, Your truth, O my God, I sing to You with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,
| فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَحْمَدُكَ بِرَبَابٍ، حَقَّكَ يَا إِلَهِي. أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ بِٱلْعُودِ يَا قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٢ |
23 My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to You, And my soul that You have redeemed,
| تَبْتَهِجُ شَفَتَايَ إِذْ أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ، وَنَفْسِي ٱلَّتِي فَدَيْتَهَا. | ٢٣ |
24 My tongue also utters Your righteousness all the day, Because ashamed—because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!
| وَلِسَانِي أَيْضًا ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُ بِبِرِّكَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَزِيَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَجِلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا. | ٢٤ |
