< Psalms 36 >

1 `To victorie, to Dauid, `the seruaunt of the Lord. The vniust man seide, that he trespasse in hym silf; the drede of God is not bifor hise iyen.
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. لِعَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ دَاوُدَ نَأْمَةُ مَعْصِيَةِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ فِي دَاخِلِ قَلْبِي أَنْ لَيْسَ خَوْفُ ٱللهِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْهِ.١
2 For he dide gilefuli in the siyt of God; that his wickidnesse be foundun to hatrede.
لِأَنَّهُ مَلَّقَ نَفْسَهُ لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ وِجْدَانِ إِثْمِهِ وَبُغْضِهِلإ.٢
3 The wordis of his mouth ben wickidnesse and gile, he nolde vndirstonde to do wel.
كَلَامُ فَمِهِ إِثْمٌ وَغِشٌّ. كَفَّ عَنِ ٱلتَّعَقُّلِ، عَنْ عَمَلِ ٱلْخَيْرِ.٣
4 He thouyte wickidnesse in his bed, he stood nyy al weie not good; forsothe he hatide not malice.
يَتَفَكَّرُ بِٱلْإِثْمِ عَلَى مَضْجَعِهِ. يَقِفُ فِي طَرِيقٍ غَيْرِ صَالِحٍ. لَا يَرْفُضُ ٱلشَّرَّ.٤
5 Lord, thi merci is in heuene; and thi treuthe is `til to cloudis.
يَارَبُّ، فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ رَحْمَتُكَ. أَمَانَتُكَ إِلَى ٱلْغَمَامِ.٥
6 Thi riytfulnesse is as the hillis of God; thi domes ben myche depthe of watris. Lord, thou schalt saue men and beestis;
عَدْلُكَ مِثْلُ جِبَالِ ٱللهِ، وَأَحْكَامُكَ لُجَّةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ. ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ تُخَلِّصُ يَارَبُّ.٦
7 as thou, God, hast multiplied thi merci. But the sones of men; schulen hope in the hilyng of thi wyngis.
مَا أَكْرَمَ رَحْمَتَكَ يَا ٱللهُ! فَبَنُو ٱلْبَشَرِ فِي ظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ يَحْتَمُونَ.٧
8 Thei schulen be fillid gretli of the plentee of thin hows; and thou schalt yyue drynke to hem with the steef streem of thi likyng.
يَرْوَوْنَ مِنْ دَسَمِ بَيْتِكَ، وَمِنْ نَهْرِ نِعَمِكَ تَسْقِيهِمْ.٨
9 For the wel of life is at thee; and in thi liyt we schulen se liyt.
لِأَنَّ عِنْدَكَ يَنْبُوعَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. بِنُورِكَ نَرَى نُورًا.٩
10 Lord, sette forth thi mercy to hem, that knowen thee; and thi ryytfulnesse to hem that ben of riytful herte.
أَدِمْ رَحْمَتَكَ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَكَ، وَعَدْلَكَ لِلْمُسْتَقِيمِي ٱلْقَلْبِ.١٠
11 The foot of pryde come not to me; and the hond of the synnere moue me not.
لَا تَأْتِنِي رِجْلُ ٱلْكِبْرِيَاءِ، وَيَدُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ لَا تُزَحْزِحْنِي.١١
12 There thei felden doun, that worchen wickidnesse; thei ben cast out, and myyten not stonde.
هُنَاكَ سَقَطَ فَاعِلُو ٱلْإِثْمِ. دُحِرُوا فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا ٱلْقِيَامَ.١٢
