Psalms 37
1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evil doers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
| لِدَاوُدَ لَا تَغَرْ مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَلَا تَحْسِدْ عُمَّالَ ٱلْإِثْمِ، | ١ |
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
| فَإِنَّهُمْ مِثْلَ ٱلْحَشِيشِ سَرِيعًا يُقْطَعُونَ، وَمِثْلَ ٱلْعُشْبِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ يَذْبُلُونَ. | ٢ |
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
| ٱتَّكِلْ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱفْعَلِ ٱلْخَيْرَ. ٱسْكُنِ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱرْعَ ٱلْأَمَانَةَ. | ٣ |
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he will give thee the desires of thy heart.
| وَتَلَذَّذْ بِٱلرَّبِّ فَيُعْطِيَكَ سُؤْلَ قَلْبِكَ. | ٤ |
5 Commit thy way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he will bring [it] to pass.
| سَلِّمْ لِلرَّبِّ طَرِيقَكَ وَٱتَّكِلْ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُجْرِي، | ٥ |
6 And he will bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noon-day.
| وَيُخْرِجُ مِثْلَ ٱلنُّورِ بِرَّكَ، وَحَقَّكَ مِثْلَ ٱلظَّهِيرَةِ. | ٦ |
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
| ٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ وَٱصْبِرْ لَهُ، وَلَا تَغَرْ مِنَ ٱلَّذِي يَنْجَحُ فِي طَرِيقِهِ، مِنَ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلْمُجْرِي مَكَايِدَ. | ٧ |
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
| كُفَّ عَنِ ٱلْغَضَبِ، وَٱتْرُكِ ٱلسَّخَطَ، وَلَا تَغَرْ لِفِعْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ، | ٨ |
9 For evil doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
| لِأَنَّ عَامِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ يُقْطَعُونَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَنْتَظِرُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ هُمْ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ. | ٩ |
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be]: yes, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be].
| بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍلَا يَكُونُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ تَطَّلِعُ فِي مَكَانِهِ فَلَا يَكُونُ. | ١٠ |
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
| أَمَّا ٱلْوُدَعَاءُ فَيَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَيَتَلَذَّذُونَ فِي كَثْرَةِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ. | ١١ |
12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
| ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَتَفَكَّرُ ضِدَّ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ وَيُحَرِّقُ عَلَيْهِ أَسْنَانَهُ. | ١٢ |
13 The LORD will laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
| ٱلرَّبُّ يَضْحَكُ بِهِ لِأَنَّهُ رَأَى أَنَّ يَوْمَهُ آتٍ! | ١٣ |
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, [and] to slay such as are of upright deportment.
| ٱلْأَشْرَارُ قَدْ سَلُّوا ٱلسَّيْفَ وَمَدُّوا قَوْسَهُمْ لِرَمْيِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ وَٱلْفَقِيرِ، لِقَتْلِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِ طَرِيقُهُمْ. | ١٤ |
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
| سَيْفُهُمْ يَدْخُلُ فِي قَلْبِهِمْ، وَقِسِيُّهُمْ تَنْكَسِرُ. | ١٥ |
16 A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of many wicked.
| اَلْقَلِيلُ ٱلَّذِي لِلصِّدِّيقِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ثَرْوَةِ أَشْرَارٍ كَثِيرِينَ. | ١٦ |
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
| لِأَنَّ سَوَاعِدَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ تَنْكَسِرُ، وَعَاضِدُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٧ |
18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
| ٱلرَّبُّ عَارِفٌ أَيَّامَ ٱلْكَمَلَةِ، وَمِيرَاثُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَكُونُ. | ١٨ |
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
| لَا يُخْزَوْنَ فِي زَمَنِ ٱلسُّوءِ، وَفِي أَيَّامِ ٱلْجُوعِ يَشْبَعُونَ. | ١٩ |
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be] as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَشْرَارَ يَهْلِكُونَ، وَأَعْدَاءُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَبَهَاءِ ٱلْمَرَاعِي. فَنُوا. كَٱلدُّخَانِ فَنُوا. | ٢٠ |
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth mercy, and giveth.
| ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَسْتَقْرِضُ وَلَا يَفِي، أَمَّا ٱلصِّدِّيقُ فَيَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُعْطِي. | ٢١ |
22 For [such as are] blessed by him shall inherit the earth; and [they that are] cursed by him shall be cut off.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْمُبَارَكِينَ مِنْهُ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَٱلْمَلْعُونِينَ مِنْهُ يُقْطَعُونَ. | ٢٢ |
23 The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
| مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَتَثَبَّتُ خَطَوَاتُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ وَفِي طَرِيقِهِ يُسَرُّ. | ٢٣ |
24 Though he should fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth [him with] his hand.
| إِذَا سَقَطَ لَا يَنْطَرِحُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُسْنِدٌ يَدَهُ. | ٢٤ |
25 I have been young, and [now] am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
| أَيْضًا كُنْتُ فَتىً وَقَدْ شِخْتُ، وَلَمْ أَرَ صِدِّيقًا تُخُلِّيَ عَنْهُ، وَلَا ذُرِّيَّةً لَهُ تَلْتَمِسُ خُبْزًا. | ٢٥ |
26 [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed.
| ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَتَرَأَّفُ وَيُقْرِضُ، وَنَسْلُهُ لِلْبَرَكَةِ. | ٢٦ |
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
| حِدْ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱفْعَلِ ٱلْخَيْرَ، وَٱسْكُنْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٢٧ |
28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُحِبُّ ٱلْحَقَّ، وَلَا يَتَخَلَّى عَنْ أَتْقِيَائِهِ. إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يُحْفَظُونَ. أَمَّا نَسْلُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَيَنْقَطِعُ. | ٢٨ |
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
| ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ يَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَيَسْكُنُونَهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٢٩ |
30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
| فَمُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ يَلْهَجُ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ، وَلِسَانُهُ يَنْطِقُ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ٣٠ |
31 The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
| شَرِيعَةُ إِلَهِهِ فِي قَلْبِهِ. لَا تَتَقَلْقَلُ خَطَوَاتُهُ. | ٣١ |
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
| ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يُرَاقِبُ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ مُحَاوِلًا أَنْ يُمِيتَهُ. | ٣٢ |
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
| ٱلرَّبُّ لَا يَتْرُكُهُ فِي يَدِهِ، وَلَا يَحْكُمُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ مُحَاكَمَتِهِ. | ٣٣ |
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it].
| ٱنْتَظِرِ ٱلرَّبَّ وَٱحْفَظْ طَرِيقَهُ، فَيَرْفَعَكَ لِتَرِثَ ٱلْأَرْضَ. إِلَى ٱنْقِرَاضِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ تَنْظُرُ. | ٣٤ |
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
| قَدْ رَأَيْتُ ٱلشِّرِّيرَ عَاتِيًا، وَارِفًا مِثْلَ شَجَرَةٍ شَارِقَةٍ نَاضِرَةٍ. | ٣٥ |
36 Yet he passed away, and lo, he [was] not: yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.
| عَبَرَ فَإِذَا هُوَ لَيْسَ بِمَوْجُودٍ، وَٱلْتَمَسْتُهُ فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ. | ٣٦ |
37 Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace.
| لَاحِظِ ٱلْكَامِلَ وَٱنْظُرِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَإِنَّ ٱلْعَقِبَ لِإِنْسَانِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ. | ٣٧ |
38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
| أَمَّا ٱلْأَشْرَارُ فَيُبَادُونَ جَمِيعًا. عَقِبُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَنْقَطِعُ. | ٣٨ |
39 But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their strength in the time of trouble.
| أَمَّا خَلَاصُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ فَمِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، حِصْنِهمْ فِي زَمَانِ ٱلضِّيقِ. | ٣٩ |
40 And the LORD will help them, and deliver them: he will deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
| وَيُعِينُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَيُنَجِّيهِمْ. يُنْقِذُهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ وَيُخَلِّصُهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمُ ٱحْتَمَوْا بِهِ. | ٤٠ |
