< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 141 >

مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ يَارَبُّ، إِلَيْكَ صَرَخْتُ. أَسْرِعْ إِلَيَّ. أَصْغِ إِلَى صَوْتِي عِنْدَ مَا أَصْرُخُ إِلَيْكَ. ١ 1
A psalm of David. Lord, I call to you: hasten, to me, attend to my voice, when I call to you.
لِتَسْتَقِمْ صَلَاتِي كَٱلْبَخُورِ قُدَّامَكَ. لِيَكُنْ رَفْعُ يَدَيَّ كَذَبِيحَةٍ مَسَائِيَّةٍ. ٢ 2
Let my prayer be presented as incense before you, and my uplifted hands as the evening meal-offering.
ٱجْعَلْ يَارَبُّ حَارِسًا لِفَمِي. ٱحْفَظْ بَابَ شَفَتَيَّ. ٣ 3
Set, O Lord, a watch on my mouth, put a guard on the door of my lips.
لَا تُمِلْ قَلْبِي إِلَى أَمْرٍ رَدِيءٍ، لِأَتَعَلَّلَ بِعِلَلِ ٱلشَّرِّ مَعَ أُنَاسٍ فَاعِلِي إِثْمٍ، وَلَا آكُلْ مِنْ نَفَائِسِهِمْ. ٤ 4
Incline not my heart to an evil matter, to busy myself in deeds of wickedness, in company with workers of evil: never may I partake of their dainties.
لِيَضْرِبْنِي ٱلصِّدِّيقُ فَرَحْمَةٌ، وَلْيُوَبِّخْنِي فَزَيْتٌ لِلرَّأْسِ. لَا يَأْبَى رَأْسِي. لِأَنَّ صَلَاتِي بَعْدُ فِي مَصَائِبِهِمْ. ٥ 5
A wound or reproof from a good person in kindness is oil which my head shall never refuse. In their misfortune my prayer is still with them.
قَدِ ٱنْطَرَحَ قُضَاتُهُمْ مِنْ عَلَى ٱلصَّخْرَةِ، وَسَمِعُوا كَلِمَاتِي لِأَنَّهَا لَذِيذَةٌ. ٦ 6
Abandoned they are to the hands of their judges: they shall learn that my words are true.
كَمَنْ يَفْلَحُ وَيَشُقُّ ٱلْأَرْضَ، تَبَدَّدَتْ عِظَامُنَا عِنْدَ فَمِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. (Sheol h7585) ٧ 7
Like stones on a country road cleft and broken so lie our bones scattered for Death to devour. (Sheol h7585)
لِأَنَّهُ إِلَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدُ يَارَبُّ عَيْنَايَ. بِكَ ٱحْتَمَيْتُ. لَا تُفْرِغْ نَفْسِي. ٨ 8
But my eyes are turned towards you, O Lord. Do not pour out my life, for in you I take refuge.
ٱحْفَظْنِي مِنَ ٱلْفَخِّ ٱلَّذِي قَدْ نَصَبُوهُ لِي، وَمِنْ أَشْرَاكِ فَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ. ٩ 9
Keep me safe from the trap they have laid for me, from the snares of the workers of trouble.
لِيَسْقُطِ ٱلْأَشْرَارُ فِي شِبَاكِهِمْ حَتَّى أَنْجُوَ أَنَا بِٱلْكُلِّيَّةِ. ١٠ 10
Into their own nets let wicked people fall; while I pass by in safety.
