اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 143
| مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ يَارَبُّ، ٱسْمَعْ صَلَاتِي، وَأَصْغِ إِلَى تَضَرُّعَاتِي. بِأَمَانَتِكَ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي، بِعَدْلِكَ. | ١ 1 |
Yahweh, hear me while I pray to you! Because you are righteous and because you faithfully do what you have promised, listen to what I am pleading that you [do for me].
| وَلَا تَدْخُلْ فِي ٱلْمُحَاكَمَةِ مَعَ عَبْدِكَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَتَبَرَّرَ قُدَّامَكَ حَيٌّ. | ٢ 2 |
I am one who serves you; do not judge me, because you know that everyone has done things that are wrong).
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْعَدُوَّ قَدِ ٱضْطَهَدَ نَفْسِي. سَحَقَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ حَيَاتِي. أَجْلَسَنِي فِي ٱلظُّلُمَاتِ مِثْلَ ٱلْمَوْتَى مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ. | ٣ 3 |
[My] enemies have pursued me; they have completely defeated me. [It is as though] they have put me in a dark [prison], where I [have nothing good to] ([hope for/expect]), like those who died long ago [SIM].
| أَعْيَتْ فِيَّ رُوحِي. تَحَيَّرَ فِي دَاخِلِي قَلْبِي. | ٤ 4 |
So I am very discouraged; I am very dismayed/worried.
| تَذَكَّرْتُ أَيَّامَ ٱلْقِدَمِ. لَهِجْتُ بِكُلِّ أَعْمَالِكَ. بِصَنَائِعِ يَدَيْكَ أَتَأَمَّلُ. | ٥ 5 |
I remember what has happened previously: I (meditate on/think about) all the things that you have done; I consider [all] the [great] deeds that you [SYN] have performed.
| بَسَطْتُ إِلَيْكَ يَدَيَّ، نَفْسِي نَحْوَكَ كَأَرْضٍ يَابِسَةٍ. سِلَاهْ. | ٦ 6 |
I lift up my hands/arms to you while I pray; I [SYN] need you, like very dry ground [needs rain] [SIM].
| أَسْرِعْ أَجِبْنِي يَارَبُّ. فَنِيَتْ رُوحِي. لَا تَحْجُبْ وَجْهَكَ عَنِّي، فَأُشْبِهَ ٱلْهَابِطِينَ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ. | ٧ 7 |
Yahweh, I am very discouraged, [so] please answer me right now! Do not hide from me, because if you do that, I will [soon] be [SIM] among those who descend to where the dead people are.
| أَسْمِعْنِي رَحْمَتَكَ فِي ٱلْغَدَاةِ، لِأَنِّي عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. عَرِّفْنِي ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّتِي أَسْلُكُ فِيهَا، لِأَنِّي إِلَيْكَ رَفَعْتُ نَفْسِي. | ٨ 8 |
[Every] morning cause me to remember that you faithfully love [me], because I trust in you. I (pray/send my prayers up [IDM]) to you; show me what I should do.
| أَنْقِذْنِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِي يَارَبُّ. إِلَيْكَ ٱلْتَجَأْتُ. | ٩ 9 |
Yahweh, I have gone/run to you to be protected, [so] rescue me from my enemies.
| عَلِّمْنِي أَنْ أَعْمَلَ رِضَاكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي. رُوحُكَ ٱلصَّالِحُ يَهْدِينِي فِي أَرْضٍ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
You are my God; teach me to do what you want me to do. I want your good Spirit to lead me on a path that is not difficult to walk on.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِكَ يَارَبُّ تُحْيِينِي. بِعَدْلِكَ تُخْرِجُ مِنَ ٱلضِّيقِ نَفْسِي، | ١١ 11 |
Yahweh, restore me when I am close to dying, as you promised to do. Because you are righteous/good, rescue me from my troubles/difficulties!
| وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ تَسْتَأْصِلُ أَعْدَائِي، وَتُبِيدُ كُلَّ مُضَايِقِي نَفْسِي، لِأَنِّي أَنَا عَبْدُكَ. | ١٢ 12 |
I am one who serves you; so because you faithfully love [me], kill my enemies and get rid of all those who (oppress/cause trouble for) me.
