مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ يَارَبُّ، ٱسْمَعْ صَلَاتِي، وَأَصْغِ إِلَى تَضَرُّعَاتِي. بِأَمَانَتِكَ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي، بِعَدْلِكَ. ١ 1
A Psalm of David, when his son pursued him. O Lord, attend to my prayer: hearken to my supplication in thy truth; hear me in thy righteousness.
وَلَا تَدْخُلْ فِي ٱلْمُحَاكَمَةِ مَعَ عَبْدِكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَتَبَرَّرَ قُدَّامَكَ حَيٌّ. ٢ 2
And enter not into judgment with thy servant, for in thy sight shall no [man] living be justified.
لِأَنَّ ٱلْعَدُوَّ قَدِ ٱضْطَهَدَ نَفْسِي. سَحَقَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ حَيَاتِي. أَجْلَسَنِي فِي ٱلظُّلُمَاتِ مِثْلَ ٱلْمَوْتَى مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ. ٣ 3
For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has brought my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in a dark [place], as those that have been long dead.
أَعْيَتْ فِيَّ رُوحِي. تَحَيَّرَ فِي دَاخِلِي قَلْبِي. ٤ 4
Therefore my spirit was grieved in me; my heart was troubled within me.
تَذَكَّرْتُ أَيَّامَ ٱلْقِدَمِ. لَهِجْتُ بِكُلِّ أَعْمَالِكَ. بِصَنَائِعِ يَدَيْكَ أَتَأَمَّلُ. ٥ 5
I remembered the days of old; and I meditated on all thy doings: [yea], I meditated on the works of thine hands.
بَسَطْتُ إِلَيْكَ يَدَيَّ، نَفْسِي نَحْوَكَ كَأَرْضٍ يَابِسَةٍ. سِلَاهْ. ٦ 6
I spread forth my hands to thee; my soul [thirsts] for thee, as a dry land. (Pause)
أَسْرِعْ أَجِبْنِي يَارَبُّ. فَنِيَتْ رُوحِي. لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي، فَأُشْبِهَ ٱلْهَابِطِينَ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ. ٧ 7
Hear me speedily, O Lord; my spirit has failed; turn not away thy face from me, else I shall be like to them that go down to the pit.
أَسْمِعْنِي رَحْمَتَكَ فِي ٱلْغَدَاةِ، لِأَنِّي عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. عَرِّفْنِي ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّتِي أَسْلُكُ فِيهَا، لِأَنِّي إِلَيْكَ رَفَعْتُ نَفْسِي. ٨ 8
Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for I have hoped in thee; make known to me, O Lord, the way wherein I should walk; for I have lifted up my soul to thee.
أَنْقِذْنِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِي يَارَبُّ. إِلَيْكَ ٱلْتَجَأْتُ. ٩ 9
Deliver me from mine enemies, O Lord; for I have fled to thee for refuge.
عَلِّمْنِي أَنْ أَعْمَلَ رِضَاكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي. رُوحُكَ ٱلصَّالِحُ يَهْدِينِي فِي أَرْضٍ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ. ١٠ 10
Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God; thy good Spirit shall guide me in the straight [way].
مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِكَ يَارَبُّ تُحْيِينِي. بِعَدْلِكَ تُخْرِجُ مِنَ ٱلضِّيقِ نَفْسِي، ١١ 11
Thou shalt quicken me, O Lord, for thy name's sake; in thy righteousness thou shalt bring my soul out of affliction.
وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ تَسْتَأْصِلُ أَعْدَائِي، وَتُبِيدُ كُلَّ مُضَايِقِي نَفْسِي، لِأَنِّي أَنَا عَبْدُكَ. ١٢ 12
And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy mine enemies, and wilt destroy all those that afflict my soul; for I am thy servant.
