< Psalms 119 >

1 ALEPH Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the LORD’s law.
طُوبَى لِلسَّالِكِينَ فِي طَرِيقِ الكَمَالِ، طَرِيقِ شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ.١
2 Blessed are those who keep his statutes, who seek him with their whole heart.
طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ، الَّذِينَ يَطْلُبُونَهُ بِكُلِّ الْقَلْبِ،٢
3 Yes, they do nothing wrong. They walk in his ways.
وَلَا يَرْتَكِبُونَ إِثْماً، إِنَّمَا فِي طُرُقِهِ يَسِيرُونَ.٣
4 You have commanded your precepts, that we should fully obey them.
أَنْتَ أَوْصَيْتَ بِحِفْظِ وَصَايَاكَ وَالعَمَلِ بِها كُلِّهَا.٤
5 Oh that my ways were steadfast to obey your statutes!
لَيْتَكَ تُوَجِّهُ طُرُقِي لِمُمَارَسَةِ فَرَائِضِكَ.٥
6 Then I wouldn’t be disappointed, when I consider all of your commandments.
عِنْدَئِذٍ لَا أَخْزَى إِذَا تَأَمَّلْتُ فِي جَمِيعِ وَصَايَاكَ.٦
7 I will give thanks to you with uprightness of heart, when I learn your righteous judgments.
أَحْمَدُكَ بِقَلْبٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ لأَنِّي أَدْرَكْتُ أَحْكَامَكَ الْعَادِلَةَ.٧
8 I will observe your statutes. Don’t utterly forsake me.
سَأَحْفَظُ وَصَايَاكَ، فَلَا تَتْرُكْنِي أَبَداً.٨
9 BETH How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.
بِمَاذَا يُزَكِّي الشَّابُّ مَسْلَكَهُ؟ بِطَاعَتِهِ لِكَلِمَتِكَ.٩
10 With my whole heart I have sought you. Don’t let me wander from your commandments.
لِذَلِكَ طَلَبْتُكَ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِي، فَلَا تَدَعْنِي أَضِلُّ عَنْ وَصَايَاكَ.١٠
11 I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
خَبَأْتُ كَلامَكَ فِي قَلْبِي، لِئَلّا أُخْطِئَ إِلَيْكَ.١١
12 Blessed are you, LORD. Teach me your statutes.
مُبَارَكٌ أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ. عَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.١٢
13 With my lips, I have declared all the ordinances of your mouth.
بِشَفَتَيَّ أَعْلَنْتُ جَمِيعَ الأَحْكَامِ الَّتِي نَطَقْتَ بِها.١٣
14 I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies, as much as in all riches.
بِطَرِيقِ شَهَادَاتِكَ قَدْ سُرِرْتُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سُرُورِ الْحَائِزِ عَلَى كُلِّ غِنىً.١٤
15 I will meditate on your precepts, and consider your ways.
أَتَأَمَّلُ وَصَايَاكَ، وَأَحْفَظُ سُبُلَكَ.١٥
16 I will delight myself in your statutes. I will not forget your word.
بِفَرائِضِكَ أَتَلَذَّذُ، وَلَا أَنْسَى كَلِمَتَكَ.١٦
17 GIMEL Do good to your servant. I will live and I will obey your word.
أَحْسِنْ إِلَيَّ أَنَا عَبْدِكَ، فَأَحْيَا وَأَعْمَلَ بِكَلِمَتِكَ.١٧
18 Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things out of your Torah.
افْتَحْ عَيْنَيَّ فَأَرَى عَجَائِبَ مِنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ.١٨
19 I am a stranger on the earth. Don’t hide your commandments from me.
غَرِيبٌ أَنَا فِي الأَرْضِ فَلَا تَحْجُبْ عَنِّي وَصَايَاكَ.١٩
20 My soul is consumed with longing for your ordinances at all times.
تَتَلَهَّفُ نَفْسِي شَوْقاً إِلَى أَحْكَامِكَ دَائِماً.٢٠
21 You have rebuked the proud who are cursed, who wander from your commandments.
أَنْتَ تَزْجُرُ الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ الْمَلْعُونِينَ الَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَنْ وَصَايَاكَ.٢١
22 Take reproach and contempt away from me, for I have kept your statutes.
انْتَزِعْ عَارِي وَهَوَانِي، لأَنَّنِي أُرَاعِي وَصَايَاكَ.٢٢
23 Though princes sit and slander me, your servant will meditate on your statutes.
جَلَسَ الرُّؤَسَاءُ وَتَآمَرُوا عَلَيَّ. أَمَّا أَنَا، عَبدَكَ، فَبَقِيتُ أَتَأَمَّلُ فِي فَرَائِضِكَ.٢٣
24 Indeed your statutes are my delight, and my counselors.
وَصَايَاكَ الشَّاهِدَةُ أَيْضاً هِيَ مَسَرَّتِي، وَأَنَا أَسْتَشِيرُهَا دَائِماً.٢٤
25 DALETH My soul is laid low in the dust. Revive me according to your word!
(أَنَا يَائِسٌ) أَرْقُدُ مُلْتَصِقاً بالتُّرَابِ، فَأَحْيِنِي حَسَبَ وَعْدِكَ.٢٥
26 I declared my ways, and you answered me. Teach me your statutes.
اعْتَرَفْتُ بِمَا جَنَيْتُ فَاسْتَجَبْتَ لِي. عَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.٢٦
27 Let me understand the teaching of your precepts! Then I will meditate on your wondrous works.
فَهِّمْنِي طَرِيقَ أَوَامِرِكَ، فَأَتَأَمَّلَ فِي أَعْمَالِكَ الْعَجِيبَةِ.٢٧
28 My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word.
نَفْسِي ذَائِبَةٌ مِنَ الْحُزْنِ. قَوِّنِي بِحَسَبِ وَعْدِكَ.٢٨
29 Keep me from the way of deceit. Grant me your Torah graciously!
أَبْعِدْ عَنِّي طَرِيقَ الْغَوَايَةِ وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ لَقِّنِّي شَرِيعَتَكَ.٢٩
30 I have chosen the way of truth. I have set your ordinances before me.
قَدِ اخْتَرْتُ طَرِيقَ الْحَقِّ، إذْ وَضَعْتُ أَحْكَامَكَ أَمَامِي.٣٠
31 I cling to your statutes, LORD. Don’t let me be disappointed.
الْتَزَمْتُ بِوَصَايَاكَ الشَّاهِدَةِ لَكَ يَا رَبُّ فَلَا تُخْزِنِي.٣١
32 I run in the path of your commandments, for you have set my heart free.
أَجِدُّ مُسْرِعاً فِي طَرِيقِ وَصَايَاكَ، لأَنَّكَ تَشْرَحُ قَلْبِي.٣٢
33 HE Teach me, LORD, the way of your statutes. I will keep them to the end.
يَا رَبُّ، عَلِّمْنِي طَرِيقَ فَرَائِضِكَ فَأُرَاعِيَهَا إِلَى النِّهَايَةِ.٣٣
34 Give me understanding, and I will keep your Torah. Yes, I will obey it with my whole heart.
أَعْطِنِي فَهْماً لأَحْفَظَ شَرِيعَتَكَ وَأَعْمَلَ بِها بِكُلِّ قَلْبِي.٣٤
35 Direct me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in them.
اهْدِنِي فِي سَبِيلِ وَصَايَاكَ، فَفِيهَا بَهْجَتِي.٣٥
36 Turn my heart toward your statutes, not toward selfish gain.
اجْتَذِبْ قَلْبِي نَحْوَ شَهَادَاتِكَ بَعِيداً عَنْ مَطَامِعِ الْمَالِ.٣٦
37 Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things. Revive me in your ways.
حَوِّلْ عَيْنَيَّ عَنْ رُؤْيَةِ الْبَاطِلِ، وَفِي طَرِيقِكَ أَحْيِنِي.٣٧
38 Fulfill your promise to your servant, that you may be feared.
حَقِّقْ لِعَبْدِكَ قَوْلَكَ، الَّذِي وَعَدْتَ بِهِ مُتَّقِيكَ.٣٨
39 Take away my disgrace that I dread, for your ordinances are good.
أَزِلْ عَنِّي الْعَارَ الَّذِي أَخْشَاهُ، لأَنَّ أَحْكَامَكَ صَالِحَةٌ.٣٩
40 Behold, I long for your precepts! Revive me in your righteousness.
هَا قَدْ رَغِبْتُ فِي وَصَايَاكَ. بِعَدْلِكَ أَحْيِنِي.٤٠
41 VAV Let your loving kindness also come to me, LORD, your salvation, according to your word.
أَنْعِمْ عَلَيَّ يَا رَبُّ بِرَحْمَتِكَ وَخَلاصِكَ حَسَبَ كَلامِكَ.٤١
42 So I will have an answer for him who reproaches me, for I trust in your word.
فَأَرُدَّ عَلَى مُعَيِّرِيَّ، لأَنِّي أَثِقُ بِوَعْدِكَ.٤٢
43 Don’t snatch the word of truth out of my mouth, for I put my hope in your ordinances.
لَا تَنْزِعْ كَلِمَةَ الْحَقِّ مِنْ فَمِي لأَنَّ رَجَائِي فِي أَحْكَامِكَ،٤٣
44 So I will obey your Torah continually, forever and ever.
فَأَحْفَظَ شَرِيعَتَكَ دَائِماً، إِلَى الدَّهْرِ وَالأَبَدِ،٤٤
45 I will walk in liberty, for I have sought your precepts.
وَأَسْلُكَ فِي رَحَابَةِ الْحُرِّيَّةِ، لأَنِّي الْتَمَسْتُ أَوَامِرَكَ.٤٥
46 I will also speak of your statutes before kings, and will not be disappointed.
سَأَتَحَدَّثُ بِشَهَادَاتِكَ أَمَامَ الْمُلُوكِ وَلَا يَعْتَرِينِي الْخِزْيُ،٤٦
47 I will delight myself in your commandments, because I love them.
وَأَتَلَذَّذُ بِوَصَايَاكَ الَّتِي أَحْبَبْتُهَا،٤٧
48 I reach out my hands for your commandments, which I love. I will meditate on your statutes.
وَأَرْفَعُ كَفَّيَّ إِلَى وَصَايَاكَ الَّتِي أَحْبَبْتُهَا وَأَتَأَمَّلُ فِي فَرَائِضِكَ.٤٨
49 ZAYIN Remember your word to your servant, because you gave me hope.
حَقِّقْ لِعَبْدِكَ وَعْدَكَ الَّذِي جَعَلْتَنِي أَنْتَظِرُهُ.٤٩
50 This is my comfort in my affliction, for your word has revived me.
وَعْدُكَ يُنْعِشُنِي إِذْ هُوَ تَعْزِيَتِي فِي ضِيقِي.٥٠
51 The arrogant mock me excessively, but I don’t swerve from your Torah.
جَاوَزَ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ الْحَدَّ فِي السُّخْرِيَةِ بِي، لَكِنْ عَنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ لَمْ أَمِلْ.٥١
52 I remember your ordinances of old, LORD, and have comforted myself.
تَذَكَّرْتُ أَحْكَامَكَ مُنْذُ الدَّهْرِ يَا رَبُّ، فَتَعَزَّيْتُ.٥٢
53 Indignation has taken hold on me, because of the wicked who forsake your Torah.
تَوَلّانِي الْغَيْظُ مِنَ الأَشْرَارِ الَّذِينَ نَبَذُوا شَرِيعَتَكَ.٥٣
54 Your statutes have been my songs in the house where I live.
صَارَتْ فَرَائِضُكَ تَرْنِيمَاتٍ لِي فِي أَرْضِ غُرْبَتِي.٥٤
55 I have remembered your name, LORD, in the night, and I obey your Torah.
ذَكَرْتُ فِي اللَّيْلِ اسْمَكَ يَا رَبُّ، وَحَفِظْتُ شَرِيعَتَكَ.٥٥
56 This is my way, that I keep your precepts.
هَذَا مَا حَظِيتُ بِهِ لأَنِّي رَاعَيْتُ وَصَايَاكَ.٥٦
57 HETH The LORD is my portion. I promised to obey your words.
أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ نَصِيبِي، فَأَعِدُكَ بِطَاعَةِ شَرِيعَتِكَ.٥٧
58 I sought your favor with my whole heart. Be merciful to me according to your word.
طَلَبْتُ وَجْهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِي: ارْحَمْنِي حَسَبَ وَعْدِكَ.٥٨
59 I considered my ways, and turned my steps to your statutes.
تَأَمَّلْتُ فِي انْحِرَافِي فَعُدْتُ وَتَحَوَّلْتُ نَحْوَ شَهَادَاتِكَ.٥٩
60 I will hurry, and not delay, to obey your commandments.
أَسْرَعْتُ مِنْ غَيْرِ تَوَانٍ إِلَى الْعَمَلِ بِوَصَايَاكَ.٦٠
61 The ropes of the wicked bind me, but I won’t forget your Torah.
قَامَ الأَشْرَارُ بِالإِيقَاعِ بِي، وَلَكِنِّي لَمْ أَنْسَ شَرِيعَتَكَ.٦١
62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you, because of your righteous ordinances.
أَسْتَيْقِظُ فِي مُنْتَصَفِ اللَّيْلِ لأَحْمَدَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَحْكَامِكَ الْعَادِلَةِ.٦٢
63 I am a friend of all those who fear you, of those who observe your precepts.
رَفِيقٌ أَنَا لِكُلِّ الَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَكَ، وَلِحَافِظِي وَصَايَاكَ.٦٣
64 The earth is full of your loving kindness, LORD. Teach me your statutes.
رَحْمَتُكَ يَا رَبُّ قَدْ عَمَّتِ الأَرْضَ فَعَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.٦٤
65 TETH You have treated your servant well, according to your word, LORD.
صَنَعْتَ خَيْراً يَا رَبُّ مَعِي أَنَا عَبْدَكَ كَمَا وَعَدْتَ.٦٥
66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments.
هَبْنِي رُوحَ تَمْيِيزٍ وَمَعْرِفَةً، لأَنِّي آمَنْتُ بِوَصَايَاكَ.٦٦
67 Before I was afflicted, I went astray; but now I observe your word.
ضَلَلْتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَدَّبْتَنِي، أَمَّا الآنَ فَحَفِظْتُ كَلامَكَ.٦٧
68 You are good, and do good. Teach me your statutes.
أَنْتَ صَالِحٌ وَمُحْسِنٌ فَعَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.٦٨
69 The proud have smeared a lie upon me. With my whole heart, I will keep your precepts.
لَفَّقَ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ عَلَيَّ أَقْوَالاً كَاذِبَةً، أَمَّا أَنَا فَبِكُلِّ قَلْبِي أَحْفَظُ وَصَايَاكَ.٦٩
70 Their heart is as callous as the fat, but I delight in your Torah.
غَلُظَ قَلْبُهُمْ وَتَقَسَّى، أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَتَمَتَّعُ بِشَرِيعَتِكَ.٧٠
71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn your statutes.
كَانَ مَا ذُقْتُ مِنْ هَوَانٍ لِخَيْرِي فَتَعَلَّمْتُ فَرَائِضَكَ.٧١
72 The Torah you have spoken is better to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.
شَرِيعَةُ فَمِكَ خَيْرٌ لِي مِنْ كُلِّ ذَهَبِ الْعَالَمِ وَفِضَّتِهِ.٧٢
73 YODH Your hands have made me and formed me. Give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments.
يَدَاكَ صَنَعَتَانِي وَكَوَّنَتَانِي، فَهَبْنِي فَهْماً لأَتَعَلَّمَ وَصَايَاكَ.٧٣
74 Those who fear you will see me and be glad, because I have put my hope in your word.
فَيَرَانِي مُتَّقُوكَ وَيَفْرَحُونَ، لأَنِّي انْتَظَرْتُ كَلامَكَ.٧٤
75 LORD, I know that your judgments are righteous, that in faithfulness you have afflicted me.
قَدْ عَلِمْتُ يَا رَبُّ أَنَّ أَحْكَامَكَ عَادِلَةٌ، وَأَنَّكَ بِالْحَقِّ أَدَّبْتَنِي.٧٥
76 Please let your loving kindness be for my comfort, according to your word to your servant.
فَلْتَكُنْ رَحْمَتُكَ تَعْزِيَةً لِي، بِمُقْتَضَى وَعْدِكَ لِعَبْدِكَ.٧٦
77 Let your tender mercies come to me, that I may live; for your Torah is my delight.
لِتَأْتِنِي مَرَاحِمُكَ فَأَحْيَا، لأَنَّ شَرِيعَتَكَ هِيَ مُتْعَتِي.٧٧
78 Let the proud be disappointed, for they have overthrown me wrongfully. I will meditate on your precepts.
لِيَخْزَ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ لأَنَّهُمُ افْتَرَوْا عَلَيَّ زُوراً، أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَتَأَمَّلُ فِي وَصَايَاكَ.٧٨
79 Let those who fear you turn to me. They will know your statutes.
لِيَنْضَمَّ إِلَيَّ مُتَّقُوكَ وَعَارِفُو شَهَادَاتِكَ.٧٩
80 Let my heart be blameless toward your decrees, that I may not be disappointed.
لِيَكُنْ قَلْبِي مُتَعَلِّقاً بِكَامِلِ فَرَائِضِكَ، فَلَا أَخْزَى.٨٠
81 KAPF My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word.
تَتَلَهَّفُ نَفْسِي إِلَى خَلاصِكَ. رَجَائِي هُوَ كَلِمَتُكَ.٨١
82 My eyes fail for your word. I say, “When will you comfort me?”
كَلَّتْ عَيْنَايَ فِي انْتِظَارِ كَلامِكَ، وَأَنَا أَقُولُ: مَتَى تُعَزِّينِي؟٨٢
83 For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke. I don’t forget your statutes.
أَصْبَحْتُ كَقِرْبَةِ خَمْرٍ أَتْلَفَتْهَا الْحَرَارَةُ وَالدُّخَانُ، وَلَكِنِّي لَمْ أَنْسَ فَرَائِضَكَ.٨٣
84 How many are the days of your servant? When will you execute judgment on those who persecute me?
كَمْ هِي أَيَّامُ عُمْرِ عَبْدِكَ؟ مَتَى تُنْزِلُ الْقَضَاءَ بِالَّذِينَ يَضْطَهِدُونَنِي؟٨٤
85 The proud have dug pits for me, contrary to your Torah.
الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ الَّذِينَ يَعْصَوْنَ شَرِيعَتَكَ حَفَرُوا لِي حُفَراً.٨٥
86 All of your commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully. Help me!
وَصَايَاكَ كُلُّهَا صَادِقَةٌ. زُوراً يَضْطَهِدُونَنِي فَأَغِثْنِي.٨٦
87 They had almost wiped me from the earth, but I didn’t forsake your precepts.
لَوْلَا قَلِيلٌ لأَفْنَوْنِي مِنَ الأَرْضِ، لَكِنِّي لَمْ أَتْرُكْ شَرِيعَتَكْ.٨٧
88 Preserve my life according to your loving kindness, so I will obey the statutes of your mouth.
أَحْيِنِي بِمُقْتَضَى رَحْمَتِكَ، فَأُطِيعَ شَرَائِعَكَ.٨٨
89 LAMEDH LORD, your word is settled in heaven forever.
يَا رَبُّ كَلِمَتُكَ تَدُومُ ثَابِتَةً فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.٨٩
90 Your faithfulness is to all generations. You have established the earth, and it remains.
مِنْ جِيلٍ إِلَى جِيلٍ أَمَانَتُكَ. أَنْتَ أَسَّسْتَ الأَرْضَ فَلَنْ تَتَزَعْزَعَ.٩٠
91 Your laws remain to this day, for all things serve you.
بِمُوْجِبِ أَحْكَامِكَ تَثْبُتُ الْيَوْمَ، لأَنَّ الْكُلَّ خُدَّامٌ لَكَ.٩١
92 Unless your Torah had been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction.
لَوْ لَمْ تَكُنْ شَرِيعَتُكَ مُتْعَتِي، لَهَلَكْتُ فِي مَذَلَّتِي،٩٢
93 I will never forget your precepts, for with them, you have revived me.
لَنْ أَنْسَى وَصَايَاكَ أَبَداً، لأَنَّكَ بِها وَهَبْتَنِي الْحَيَاةَ.٩٣
94 I am yours. Save me, for I have sought your precepts.
أَنَا لَكَ، فَخَلِّصْنِي، لأَنِّي الْتَمَسْتُ وَصَايَاكَ.٩٤
95 The wicked have waited for me, to destroy me. I will consider your statutes.
تَرَبَّصَ بِيَ الأَشْرَارُ لِيُهْلِكُونِي، لَكِنِّي أَتَأَمَّلُ فِي شَهَادَاتِكَ.٩٥
96 I have seen a limit to all perfection, but your commands are boundless.
رَأَيْتُ لِكُلِّ كَمَالٍ حَدّاً، أَمَّا وَصِيَّتُكَ فَلَا حَدَّ لَهَا.٩٦
97 MEM How I love your Torah! It is my meditation all day.
كَمْ أَحْبَبْتُ شَرِيعَتَكَ، إِنَّهَا مَوْضُوعُ تَأَمُّلِي طُولَ النَّهَارِ.٩٧
98 Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for your commandments are always with me.
وَصِيَّتُكَ جَعَلَتْنِي أَحْكَمَ مِنْ أَعْدَائِي، لأَنَّهَا نَصِيبِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ.٩٨
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my (meditation)
صِرْتُ أَكْثَرَ فَهْماً مِنْ مُعَلِّمِيَّ، لأَنَّ شَهَادَاتِكَ هِيَ مَوْضُوعُ تَأَمُّلِي.٩٩
100 I understand more than the aged, because I have kept your precepts.
صِرْتُ أَكْثَرَ فِطْنَةً مِنَ الشُّيُوخِ، لأَنِّي رَاعَيْتُ وَصَايَاكَ.١٠٠
101 I have kept my feet from every evil way, that I might observe your word.
مَنَعْتُ قَدَمَيَّ عَنْ سُلُوكِ كُلِّ طَرِيقِ شَرٍّ، لِكَيْ أَحْفَظَ كَلامَكَ.١٠١
102 I have not turned away from your ordinances, for you have taught me.
لَمْ أَبْتَعِدْ عَنْ أَحْكَامِكَ لأَنَّكَ هَكَذَا عَلَّمْتَنِي.١٠٢
103 How sweet are your promises to my taste, more than honey to my mouth!
مَا أَحْلَى أَقْوَالَكَ لِمَذَاقِي. إِنَّهَا أَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ فِي فَمِي.١٠٣
104 Through your precepts, I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
مِنْ وَصَايَاكَ اكْتَسَبْتُ فِطْنَةً لِذَلِكَ أَبْغَضْتُ كُلَّ طَرِيقٍ بَاطِلٍ.١٠٤
105 NUN Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.
سِرَاجٌ لِرِجْلِي كَلامُكَ وَنُورٌ لِسَبِيلِي.١٠٥
106 I have sworn, and have confirmed it, that I will obey your righteous ordinances.
أَقْسَمْتُ يَمِيناً مُوَثَّقَةً أَنْ أَحْفَظَ أَحْكَامَكَ الْعَادِلَةَ.١٠٦
107 I am afflicted very much. Revive me, LORD, according to your word.
قَاسَيْتُ جِدّاً فَأَنْعِشْنِي يَا رَبُّ بِمُقْتَضَى وَعْدِكَ.١٠٧
108 Accept, I beg you, the willing offerings of my mouth. LORD, teach me your ordinances.
تَقَبَّلْ يَا رَبُّ صَلَوَاتِ شُكْرِي، وَعَلِّمْنِي أَحْكَامَكَ.١٠٨
109 My soul is continually in my hand, yet I won’t forget your Torah.
نَفْسِي دَائِماً فِي كَفِّي، لَكِنِّي لَا أَنْسَى شَرِيعَتَكَ.١٠٩
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me, yet I haven’t gone astray from your precepts.
نَصَبَ الأَشْرَارُ لِي فَخّاً فَتَفَادَيْتُهُ لأَنِّي لَمْ أَضِلَّ عَنْ وَصَايَاكَ.١١٠
111 I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
اتَّخَذْتُ شَهَادَاتِكَ مِيرَاثاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ، لأَنَّهَا بَهْجَةُ قَلْبِي.١١١
112 I have set my heart to perform your statutes forever, even to the end.
لَقَدْ عَزَمْتُ أَنْ أُتَمِّمَ فَرَائِضَكَ إِلَى أَنْ أَمُوتَ.١١٢
113 SAMEKH I hate double-minded men, but I love your Torah.
أَبْغَضْتُ ذَوِي الرَّأْيِ الْمُتَقَلِّبِ، أَمَّا شَرِيعَتُكَ فَأَحْبَبْتُ.١١٣
114 You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word.
أَنْتَ مَلْجَإِي وَتُرْسِي، وَأَمَلِي فِي كَلِمَتِكَ.١١٤
115 Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God.
ابْتَعِدُوا عَنِّي يَا فَاعِلِي الشَّرِّ، فَأَحْفَظَ وَصَايَا إِلَهِي.١١٥
116 Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.
كُنْ سَنَدِي كَمَا وَعَدْتَ، فَأَحْيَا وَلَا يَخِيبَ رَجَائِي.١١٦
117 Hold me up, and I will be safe, and will have respect for your statutes continually.
اعْضُدْنِي فَأَخْلُصَ، وَأُرَاعِيَ فَرَائِضَكَ دَائِماً.١١٧
118 You reject all those who stray from your statutes, for their deceit is in vain.
احْتَقَرْتَ الضَّالِّينَ عَنْ فَرَائِضِكَ، وَمَكْرُهُمْ لَا يُجْدِيهِمْ نَفْعاً.١١٨
119 You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross. Therefore I love your testimonies.
رَذَلْتَ جَمِيعَ أَشْرَارِ الأَرْضِ كَأَنَّهُمْ نُفَايَةٌ، لِذَلِكَ أَحْبَبْتُ شَهَادَاتِكَ.١١٩
120 My flesh trembles for fear of you. I am afraid of your judgments.
اقْشَعَرَّ بَدَنِي رُعْباً مِنْكَ وَجَزِعْتُ مِنْ أَحْكَامِكَ.١٢٠
121 AYIN I have done what is just and righteous. Don’t leave me to my oppressors.
أَجْرَيْتُ قَضَاءً وَعَدْلاً، فَلَا تُسْلِمْنِي إِلَى ظَالِمِيَّ.١٢١
122 Ensure your servant’s well-being. Don’t let the proud oppress me.
كُنْ ضَامِناً لِخَيْرِ عَبْدِكَ، فَلَا يَجُورَ عَلَيَّ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ.١٢٢
123 My eyes fail looking for your salvation, for your righteous word.
كَلَّتْ عَيْنَايَ اشْتِيَاقاً إِلَى خَلاصِكَ وَإِلَى تَحْقِيقِ وَعْدِكَ الأَمِينِ.١٢٣
124 Deal with your servant according to your loving kindness. Teach me your statutes.
عَامِلْ عَبْدَكَ بِمُقْتَضَى رَحْمَتِكَ، وَعَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.١٢٤
125 I am your servant. Give me understanding, that I may know your testimonies.
عَبْدُكَ أَنَا، فَهَبْنِي فَهْماً لأَعْرِفَ شَهَادَاتِكَ.١٢٥
126 It is time to act, LORD, for they break your Torah.
يَا رَبُّ آنَ لَكَ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ، فَقَدْ نَقَضُوا شَرِيعَتَكَ.١٢٦
127 Therefore I love your commandments more than gold, yes, more than pure gold.
لِذَلِكَ أُحِبُّ وَصَايَاكَ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ الْخَالِصِ،١٢٧
128 Therefore I consider all of your precepts to be right. I hate every false way.
وَلأَنِّي أَحْسِبُ كُلَّ فَرَائِضِكَ مُسْتَقِيمَةً فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، أُبْغِضُ كُلَّ طَرِيقٍ بَاطِلٍ.١٢٨
129 PE Your testimonies are wonderful, therefore my soul keeps them.
مَا أَعْجَبَ شَهَادَاتِكَ. لِذَلِكَ تُرَاعِيهَا نَفْسِي.١٢٩
130 The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.
فَتْحُ كَلامِكَ يُنِيرُ الذِّهْنَ، وَيَهِبُ الْبُسَطَاءَ فَهْماً.١٣٠
131 I opened my mouth wide and panted, for I longed for your commandments.
فَغَرْتُ فَمِي لاهِثاً اشْتِيَاقاً إِلَى وَصَايَاكَ.١٣١
132 Turn to me, and have mercy on me, as you always do to those who love your name.
الْتَفِتْ إِلَيَّ وَتَحَنَّنْ عَلَيَّ، كَمَا تَفْعَلُ دَائِماً مَعَ مُحِبِّيكَ.١٣٢
133 Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me.
ثَبِّتْ خُطْوَاتِي فِي كَلِمَتِكَ، وَلَا تَدَعْ أَيَّ إِثْمٍ يَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَيَّ.١٣٣
134 Redeem me from the oppression of man, so I will observe your precepts.
حَرِّرْنِي مِنْ ظُلْمِ الإِنْسَانِ، فَأَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاكَ.١٣٤
135 Make your face shine on your servant. Teach me your statutes.
أَضِئْ بِوَجْهِكَ عَلَى عَبْدِكَ، وَعَلِّمْنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.١٣٥
136 Streams of tears run down my eyes, because they don’t observe your Torah.
فَاضَتْ مِنْ عَيْنَيَّ يَنَابِيعُ دَمْعٍ، لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُرَاعُوا شَرِيعَتَكَ.١٣٦
137 TZADHE You are righteous, LORD. Your judgments are upright.
عَادِلٌ أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ، وَأَحْكَامُكَ مُسْتَقِيمَةٌ.١٣٧
138 You have commanded your statutes in righteousness. They are fully trustworthy.
أَصْدَرْتَ أَوَامِرَكَ بِعَدْلٍ وَبِأَقْصَى الأَمَانَةِ.١٣٨
139 My zeal wears me out, because my enemies ignore your words.
أَتَمَيَّزُ غَيْرَةً فِي دَاخِلِي، لأَنَّ أَعْدَائِي تَغَاضَوْا عَنْ كَلامِكَ.١٣٩
140 Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them.
أَقْوَالُكَ مُمَحَّصَةٌ نَقِيَّةٌ، وَعَبْدُكَ أَحَبَّهَا.١٤٠
141 I am small and despised. I don’t forget your precepts.
صَغِيرُ الشَّأْنِ أَنَا وَحَقِيرٌ وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ أَنْسَ وَصَايَاكَ.١٤١
142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness. Your Torah is truth.
عَدْلُكَ عَدْلٌ أَبَدِيٌّ وَشَرِيعَتُكَ حَقٌّ.١٤٢
143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight.
اسْتَوْلَى عَلَيَّ الضِّيقُ وَالشِّدَّةُ، وَلَا لَذَّةَ لِي إِلّا بِوَصَايَاكَ.١٤٣
144 Your testimonies are righteous forever. Give me understanding, that I may live.
شَهَادَاتُكَ عَدْلٌ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. فَهِّمْنِي إِيَّاهَا فَأَحْيَا.١٤٤
145 QOPH I have called with my whole heart. Answer me, LORD! I will keep your statutes.
صَرَخْتُ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِي، فَاسْتَجِبْ لِي يَا رَبُّ، وَسَأُرَاعِي شَرَائِعَكَ.١٤٥
146 I have called to you. Save me! I will obey your statutes.
إِيَّاكَ دَعَوْتُ فَخَلِّصْنِي لأُطِيعَ شَهَادَاتِكَ.١٤٦
147 I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words.
اسْتَيْقَظْتُ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ وَاسْتَغَثْتُ؛ رَجَائِي فِي كَلامِكَ.١٤٧
148 My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word.
اللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ أَظَلُّ مُسْتَيْقِظاً، أَتَأَمَّلُ فِي أَقْوَالِكَ١٤٨
149 Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Revive me, LORD, according to your ordinances.
اسْتَمِعْ لِي يَا رَبُّ بِمُقْتَضَى رَحْمَتِكَ، وَأَحْيِنِي بِمُوْجِبِ أَحْكَامِكَ.١٤٩
150 They draw near who follow after wickedness. They are far from your Torah.
اقْتَرَبَ مِنِّي السَّاعُونَ وَرَاءَ الرَّذِيلَةِ، الْبَعِيدُونَ عَنْ شَرِيعَتِكَ.١٥٠
151 You are near, LORD. All your commandments are truth.
إِنَّمَا أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيَّ، وَوَصَايَاكَ كُلُّهَا حَقٌّ.١٥١
152 Of old I have known from your testimonies, that you have founded them forever.
مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ عَرَفْتُ مِنْ شَهَادَاتِكَ أَنَّكَ وَضَعْتَهَا لِتَثْبُتَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.١٥٢
153 RESH Consider my affliction, and deliver me, for I don’t forget your Torah.
انْظُرْ إِلَى مَذَلَّتِي وَأَنْقِذْنِي، لأَنِّي لَمْ أَنْسَ شَرِيعَتَكَ.١٥٣
154 Plead my cause, and redeem me! Revive me according to your promise.
تَوَلَّ قَضِيَّتِي وَافْدِنِي، أَحْيِنِي حَسَبَ كَلِمَتِكَ.١٥٤
155 Salvation is far from the wicked, for they don’t seek your statutes.
الْخَلاصُ بَعِيدٌ عَنِ الأَشْرَارِ، لأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَطْلُبُونَ فَرَائِضَكَ.١٥٥
156 Great are your tender mercies, LORD. Revive me according to your ordinances.
مَا أَكْثَرَ مَرَاحِمَكَ يَا رَبُّ. أَحْيِنِي بِمُقْتَضَى أَحْكَامِكَ.١٥٦
157 Many are my persecutors and my adversaries. I haven’t swerved from your testimonies.
كَثِيرُونَ هُمْ أَعْدَائِي وَمُضْطَهِدِيَّ، وَلَكِنِّي لَمْ أَحِدْ عَنْ شَهَادَاتِكَ.١٥٧
158 I look at the faithless with loathing, because they don’t observe your word.
نَظَرْتُ إِلَى الْغَادِرِينَ شَزْراً، لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُطِيعُوا كَلِمَتَكَ.١٥٨
159 Consider how I love your precepts. Revive me, LORD, according to your loving kindness.
انْظُرْ كَيْفَ أَحْبَبْتُ وَصَايَاكَ فَأَحْيِنِي يَا رَبُّ بِمُقْتَضَى رَحْمَتِكَ.١٥٩
160 All of your words are truth. Every one of your righteous ordinances endures forever.
كَلامُكَ بِأَسْرِهِ حَقٌّ، وَكُلُّ أَحْكَامِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ عَادِلَةٌ.١٦٠
161 SIN AND SHIN Princes have persecuted me without a cause, but my heart stands in awe of your words.
اضْطَهَدَنِي رُؤَسَاءُ مِنْ غَيْرِ عِلَّةٍ، لَكِنَّ قَلْبِي لَا يَهَابُ سِوَى كَلامِكَ.١٦١
162 I rejoice at your word, as one who finds great plunder.
أَبْتَهِجُ بِكَلامِكَ كَبَهْجَةِ مَنْ عَثَرَ عَلَى غَنِيمَةٍ جَزِيلَةٍ.١٦٢
163 I hate and abhor falsehood. I love your Torah.
أَبْغَضْتُ الْكَذِبَ وَمَقَتُّهُ، أَمَّا شَرِيعَتُكَ فَأَحْبَبْتُهَا.١٦٣
164 Seven times a day, I praise you, because of your righteous ordinances.
سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ سَبَّحْتُكَ فِي النَّهَارِ عَلَى أَحْكَامِكَ الْعَادِلَةِ.١٦٤
165 Those who love your Torah have great peace. Nothing causes them to stumble.
سَلامٌ جَزِيلٌ لِمُحِبِّي شَرِيعَتِكَ، وَلَنْ يُعْثِرَهُمْ بِفَضْلِهَا شَيْءٌ١٦٥
166 I have hoped for your salvation, LORD. I have done your commandments.
رَجَوْتُ خَلاصَكَ يَا رَبُّ وَوَصَايَاكَ عَمِلْتُ.١٦٦
167 My soul has observed your testimonies. I love them exceedingly.
حَفِظَتْ نَفْسِي شَهَادَاتِكَ وَأَنَا أُحِبُّهَا جِدّاً.١٦٧
168 I have obeyed your precepts and your testimonies, for all my ways are before you.
رَاعَيْتُ وَصَايَاكَ وَشَهَادَاتِكَ، وَجَمِيعُ أَعْمَالِي مَاثِلَةٌ أَمَامَكَ.١٦٨
169 TAV Let my cry come before you, LORD. Give me understanding according to your word.
لِيَصِلْ صُرَاخِي إِلَيْكَ يَا رَبُّ. هَبْنِي فَهْماً حَسَبَ كَلامِكَ.١٦٩
170 Let my supplication come before you. Deliver me according to your word.
لِتَمْثُلْ طِلْبَتِي أَمَامَكَ. أَنْقِذْنِي بِمُوجِبِ وَعْدِكَ.١٧٠
171 Let my lips utter praise, for you teach me your statutes.
تَفِيضُ شَفَتَايَ تَسْبِيحاً إذْ تُعَلِّمُنِي فَرَائِضَكَ.١٧١
172 Let my tongue sing of your word, for all your commandments are righteousness.
يَشْدُو لِسَانِي بِأَقْوَالِكَ، لأَنَّ جَمِيعَ وَصَايَاكَ عَدْلٌ.١٧٢
173 Let your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen your precepts.
لِتُغِثْنِي يَدُكَ لأَنِّي اخْتَرْتُ وَصَايَاكَ.١٧٣
174 I have longed for your salvation [yeshuat], LORD. Your Torah is my delight.
اشْتَقْتُ إِلَى خَلاصِكَ يَا رَبُّ؛ شَرِيعَتُكَ هِيَ مَسَرَّتِي.١٧٤
175 Let my soul live, that I may praise you. Let your ordinances help me.
لِتَحْيَ نَفْسِي فَتُسَبِّحَكَ وَلْتَكُنْ أَحْكَامُكَ لِي عَوْناً.١٧٥
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep. Seek your servant, for I don’t forget your commandments.
تِهْتُ كَخَرُوفٍ ضَالٍّ. فَابْحَثْ عَنْ عَبْدِكَ، فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَنْسَ وَصَايَاكَ.١٧٦
