< Psalms 27 >

1 David’s. Yahweh, is my light and my salvation, Of whom shall I be afraid? Yahweh, is the refuge of my life, Of whom shall I be in dread?
لِدَاوُدَ اَلرَّبُّ نُورِي وَخَلَاصِي، مِمَّنْ أَخَافُ؟ ٱلرَّبُّ حِصْنُ حَيَاتِي، مِمَّنْ أَرْتَعِبُ؟١
2 When there drew near against me evil-doers to devour my flesh, mine adversaries, and mine enemies—mine!—they, stumbled and fell!
عِنْدَ مَا ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَيَّ ٱلْأَشْرَارُ لِيَأْكُلُوا لَحْمِي، مُضَايِقِيَّ وَأَعْدَائِي عَثَرُوا وَسَقَطُوا.٢
3 Though there pitch against me—a camp, my heart shall not fear, —Though there come up against me—a battle, still, am I confident.
إِنْ نَزَلَ عَلَيَّ جَيْشٌ لَا يَخَافُ قَلْبِي. إِنْ قَامَتْ عَلَيَّ حَرْبٌ فَفِي ذَلِكَ أَنَا مُطْمَئِنٌّ.٣
4 One thing, have I asked of Yahweh, That, will I seek to secure, —That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh, all the days of my life, To view the delightfulness of Yahweh, And to contemplate in his temple.
وَاحِدَةً سَأَلْتُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَإِيَّاهَا أَلْتَمِسُ: أَنْ أَسْكُنَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِي، لِكَيْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى جَمَالِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأَتَفَرَّسَ فِي هَيْكَلِهِ.٤
5 For he will hide me in his pavilion, in the day of calamity, —He will conceal me, in the secrecy of his tent, Within a rock, will he set me on high.
لِأَنَّهُ يُخَبِّئُنِي فِي مَظَلَّتِهِ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلشَّرِّ. يَسْتُرُنِي بِسِتْرِ خَيْمَتِهِ. عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ يَرْفَعُنِي.٥
6 Now, therefore, shall my head be raised high above my foes round about me, and I will sacrifice in his tent the sacrifices of triumphant joy, I will sing and touch the strings, to Yahweh.
وَٱلْآنَ يَرْتَفِعُ رَأْسِي عَلَى أَعْدَائِي حَوْلِي، فَأَذْبَحُ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ ذَبَائِحَ ٱلْهُتَافِ. أُغَنِّي وَأُرَنِّمُ لِلرَّبِّ.٦
7 Hear, O Yahweh, With my voice, do I cry, Oh then show me favour and answer me.
اِسْتَمِعْ يَارَبُّ. بِصَوْتِي أَدْعُو فَٱرْحَمْنِي وَٱسْتَجِبْ لِي.٧
8 To thee, said my heart—[When thou saidst] Seek ye my face—Thy face, O Yahweh, will I seek!
لَكَ قَالَ قَلْبِي: «قُلْتَ: ٱطْلُبُوا وَجْهِي». وَجْهَكَ يَارَبُّ أَطْلُبُ.٨
9 Do not hide thy face from me, Do not repulse, in thine anger, thine own servant, —My help, thou hast been, Do not send me away nor forsake me, O my saving God!
لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي. لَا تُخَيِّبْ بِسُخْطٍ عَبْدَكَ. قَدْ كُنْتَ عَوْنِي فَلَا تَرْفُضْنِي وَلَا تَتْرُكْنِي يَا إِلَهَ خَلَاصِي.٩
10 When, my own father and mother, had forsaken me, Then, Yahweh, took me up!
إِنَّ أَبِي وَأُمِّي قَدْ تَرَكَانِي وَٱلرَّبُّ يَضُمُّنِي.١٠
11 Point out to me, O Yahweh, thy way, —And guide me in a level path, because of mine adversaries.
عَلِّمْنِي يَارَبُّ طَرِيقَكَ، وَٱهْدِنِي فِي سَبِيلٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ بِسَبَبِ أَعْدَائِي.١١
12 Do not give me up unto the desire of mine adversaries, for there have risen up against me witnesses that are false, and he that fanneth up violence.
لَا تُسَلِّمْنِي إِلَى مَرَامِ مُضَايِقِيَّ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ قَامَ عَلَيَّ شُهُودُ زُورٍ وَنَافِثُ ظُلْمٍ.١٢
13 I believe that I shall see—The goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living,
لَوْلَا أَنَّنِي آمَنْتُ بِأَنْ أَرَى جُودَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ.١٣
14 Wait thou for Yahweh, —Be strong, and let thy heart be bold, Wait, then, for Yahweh!
ٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ. لِيَتَشَدَّدْ وَلْيَتَشَجَّعْ قَلْبُكَ، وَٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ.١٤
