< Psalms 27 >

1 [A Psalm] of David. The LORD [is] my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD [is] the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
لِدَاوُدَ الرَّبُّ نُورِي وَخَلاصِي، مِمَّنْ أَخَافُ؟ الرَّبُّ حِصْنُ حَيَاتِي مِمَّنْ أَرْتَعِبُ؟١
2 When the wicked, [even] my enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
عِنْدَمَا هَجَمَ فَاعِلُو الإِثْمِ، خُصُومِي وَأَعْدَائِي، لِيَلْتَهِمُوا لَحْمِي، تَعَثَّرُوا وَسَقَطُوا.٢
3 Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this [will] I [be] confident.
إِنِ اصْطَفَّ ضِدِّي جَيْشٌ، لَا يَخَافُ قَلْبِي. إنْ نَشَبَتْ عَلَيَّ حَرْبٌ، أَظَلُّ فِي ذَلِكَ مُطْمَئِنّاً.٣
4 One [thing] have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.
أَمْراً وَاحِداً طَلَبْتُ مِنَ الرَّبِّ وَإِيَّاهُ فَقَطْ أَلْتَمِسُ: أَنْ أُقِيمَ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِي، لأُشَاهِدَ جَمَالَ الرَّبِّ وَأَتَأَمَّلَ فِي هَيْكَلِهِ.٤
5 For in the time of trouble he will hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle will he hide me; he will set me up upon a rock.
لأَنَّهُ يَحْمِينِي فِي يَوْمِ الشَّرِّ تَحْتَ سَقْفِ بَيْتِهِ وَيَحْرُسُنِي آمِناً فِي خِبَاءِ خَيْمَتِهِ. إِذْ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ عَالِيَةٍ يَرْفَعُنِي.٥
6 And now shall my head be lifted above my enemies around me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
حِينَئِذٍ أَفْتَخِرُ عَلَى أَعْدَائِي الْمُحِيطِينَ بِي، وَأُقَدِّمُ لَهُ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ ذَبَائِحَ هُتَافٍ، فَأُغَنِّي بَلْ أُرَنِّمُ حَمْداً لِلرَّبِّ.٦
7 Hear, O LORD, [when] I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
اسْمَعْ يَا رَبُّ نِدَائِي لأَنِّي بِمِلْءِ صَوْتِي أَدْعُوكَ! ارْحَمْنِي وَاسْتَجِبْ لِي.٧
8 [When thou saidst], Seek ye my face; my heart said to thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
قُلْتَ: اطْلُبُوا وَجْهِي! فَوَجْهَكَ يَا رَبُّ أَطْلُبُ.٨
9 Hide not thy face from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي. لَا تَطْرُدْ بِغَضَبٍ عَبْدَكَ، فَطَالَمَا كُنْتَ عَوْنِي. لَا تَرْفُضْنِي وَلَا تَهْجُرْنِي يَا اللهُ مُخَلِّصِي.٩
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
إِنَّ أَبِي وَأُمِّي قَدْ تَرَكَانِي، لَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَتَعَهَّدُنِي بِرِعَايَتِهِ.١٠
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies.
عَلِّمْنِي يَا رَبُّ طَرِيقَكَ، وَقُدْنِي فِي طَرِيقٍ مُسْتَقِيمَةٍ لِئَلّا يَشْمَتَ بِي أَعْدَائِي.١١
12 Deliver me not over to the will of my enemies: for false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
لَا تُسَلِّمْنِي إِلَى مَرَامِ مُضَايِقِيَّ، لأَنَّهُ قَدْ قَامَ عَلَيَّ شُهُودُ زُورٍ يَنْفُثُونَ الظُّلْمَ فِي وَجْهِي.١٢
13 [I had fainted], unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
غَيْرَ أَنِّي قَدْ آمَنْتُ بِأَنْ أَرَى جُودَ الرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضِ الأَحْيَاءِ.١٣
14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he will strengthen thy heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
انْتَظِرِ الرَّبَّ. تَقَوَّ وَلْيَتَشَجَّعْ قَلْبُكَ. وَانْتَظِرِ الرَّبَّ دَائِماً.١٤
