Psalms 38
1 [A Psalm by David, for a memorial.] YHWH, do not rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.
| مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِلتَّذْكِيرِ يَارَبُّ، لَا تُوَبِّخْنِي بِسَخَطِكَ، وَلَا تُؤَدِّبْنِي بِغَيْظِكَ، | ١ |
2 For your arrows have pierced me, your hand presses hard on me.
| لِأَنَّ سِهَامَكَ قَدِ ٱنْتَشَبَتْ فِيَّ، وَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُكَ. | ٢ |
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation, neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
| لَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ غَضَبِكَ. لَيْسَتْ فِي عِظَامِي سَلَامَةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ خَطِيَّتِي. | ٣ |
4 For my iniquities have gone over my head. As a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
| لِأَنَّ آثَامِي قَدْ طَمَتْ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. كَحِمْلٍ ثَقِيلٍ أَثْقَلَ مِمَّا أَحْتَمِلُ. | ٤ |
5 My wounds are loathsome and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
| قَدْ أَنْتَنَتْ، قَاحَتْ حُبُرُ ضَرْبِي مِنْ جِهَةِ حَمَاقَتِي. | ٥ |
6 I am pained and bowed down greatly. I go mourning all day long.
| لَوِيتُ. ٱنْحَنَيْتُ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ. ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ ذَهَبْتُ حَزِينًا. | ٦ |
7 For my waist is filled with burning. There is no soundness in my flesh.
| لِأَنَّ خَاصِرَتَيَّ قَدِ ٱمْتَلَأَتَا ٱحْتِرَاقًا، وَلَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ. | ٧ |
8 I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart.
| خَدِرْتُ وَٱنْسَحَقْتُ إِلَى ٱلْغَايَةِ. كُنْتُ أَئِنُّ مِنْ زَفِيرِ قَلْبِي. | ٨ |
9 Lord, all my desire is before you. My groaning is not hidden from you.
| يَارَبُّ، أَمَامَكَ كُلُّ تَأَوُّهِي، وَتَنَهُّدِي لَيْسَ بِمَسْتُورٍ عَنْكَ. | ٩ |
10 My heart throbs. My strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.
| قَلْبِي خَافِقٌ. قُوَّتِي فَارَقَتْنِي، وَنُورُ عَيْنِي أَيْضًا لَيْسَ مَعِي. | ١٠ |
11 My loved ones and my friends keep their distance because of my affliction. My kinsmen stand far away.
| أَحِبَّائِي وَأَصْحَابِي يَقِفُونَ تُجَاهَ ضَرْبَتِي، وَأَقَارِبِي وَقَفُوا بَعِيدًا. | ١١ |
12 They also who seek after my life lay snares. Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and meditate deceits all day long.
| وَطَالِبُو نَفْسِي نَصَبُوا شَرَكًا، وَٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِيَ ٱلشَّرَّ تَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْمَفَاسِدِ، وَٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُونَ بِٱلْغِشِّ. | ١٢ |
13 But I, as a deaf man, do not hear. I am as a mute man who doesn't open his mouth.
| وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَكَأَصَمَّ لَا أَسْمَعُ. وَكَأَبْكَمَ لَا يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ. | ١٣ |
14 Yes, I am as a man who doesn't hear, in whose mouth are no reproofs.
| وَأَكُونُ مِثْلَ إِنْسَانٍلَا يَسْمَعُ، وَلَيْسَ فِي فَمِهِ حُجَّةٌ. | ١٤ |
15 For in you, YHWH, do I hope. You will answer, YHWH my God.
| لِأَنِّي لَكَ يَارَبُّ صَبَرْتُ، أَنْتَ تَسْتَجِيبُ يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي. | ١٥ |
16 For I said, "Do not let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips."
| لِأَنِّي قُلْتُ: «لِئَلَّا يَشْمَتُوا بِي». عِنْدَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي تَعَظَّمُوا عَلَيَّ. | ١٦ |
17 For I am ready to fall. My pain is continually before me.
| لِأَنِّي مُوشِكٌ أَنْ أَظْلَعَ، وَوَجَعِي مُقَابِلِي دَائِمًا. | ١٧ |
18 Yes, I confess my iniquity. I am anxious because of my sin.
| لِأَنَّنِي أُخْبِرُ بِإِثْمِي، وَأَغْتَمُّ مِنْ خَطِيَّتِي. | ١٨ |
19 But my enemies, for no reason, are many. Those who hate me wrongfully are numerous.
| وَأَمَّا أَعْدَائِي فَأَحْيَاءٌ. عَظُمُوا. وَٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي ظُلْمًا كَثُرُوا. | ١٩ |
20 They who also render evil for good are adversaries to me, because I follow what is good.
| وَٱلْمُجَازُونَ عَنِ ٱلْخَيْرِ بِشَرٍّ، يُقَاوِمُونَنِي لِأَجْلِ ٱتِّبَاعِي ٱلصَّلَاحَ. | ٢٠ |
21 Do not forsake me, YHWH. My God, do not be far from me.
| لَا تَتْرُكْنِي يَارَبُّ. يَاإِلَهِي، لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. | ٢١ |
22 Hurry to help me, YHWH, my salvation.
| أَسْرِعْ إِلَى مَعُونَتِي يَارَبُّ يَا خَلَاصِي. | ٢٢ |
