اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 19

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ اَلسَّمَاوَاتُ تُحَدِّثُ بِمَجْدِ ٱللهِ، وَٱلْفَلَكُ يُخْبِرُ بِعَمَلِ يَدَيْهِ.

The heavens declare the kavod ·weighty glory· of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

٢ 2 يَوْمٌ إِلَى يَوْمٍ يُذِيعُ كَلَامًا، وَلَيْلٌ إِلَى لَيْلٍ يُبْدِي عِلْمًا.

Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge.

٣ 3 لَا قَوْلَ وَلَا كَلَامَ. لَا يُسْمَعُ صَوْتُهُمْ.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not sh'ma ·heard obeyed·.

٤ 4 فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ خَرَجَ مَنْطِقُهُمْ، وَإِلَى أَقْصَى ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ كَلِمَاتُهُمْ. جَعَلَ لِلشَّمْسِ مَسْكَنًا فِيهَا،

Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

٥ 5 وَهِيَ مِثْلُ ٱلْعَرُوسِ ٱلْخَارِجِ مِنْ حَجَلَتِهِ. يَبْتَهِجُ مِثْلَ ٱلْجَبَّارِ لِلسِّبَاقِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ.

which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

٦ 6 مِنْ أَقْصَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ خُرُوجُهَا، وَمَدَارُهَا إِلَى أَقَاصِيهَا، وَلَا شَيْءَ يَخْتَفِي مِنْ حَرِّهَا.

His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends; There is nothing hidden from its heat.

٧ 7 نَامُوسُ ٱلرَّبِّ كَامِلٌ يَرُدُّ ٱلنَّفْسَ. شَهَادَاتُ ٱلرَّبِّ صَادِقَةٌ تُصَيِّرُ ٱلْجَاهِلَ حَكِيمًا.

Adonai’s Torah ·Teaching· is perfect, restoring the soul. Adonai’s testimony is sure, making wise the simple.

٨ 8 وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ مُسْتَقِيمَةٌ تُفَرِّحُ ٱلْقَلْبَ. أَمْرُ ٱلرَّبِّ طَاهِرٌ يُنِيرُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ.

Adonai’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Adonai’s mitzvah ·instruction· is pure, enlightening the eyes.

٩ 9 خَوْفُ ٱلرَّبِّ نَقِيٌّ ثَابِتٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. أَحْكَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ حَقٌّ عَادِلَةٌ كُلُّهَا.

The fear of Adonai is clean, enduring forever. Adonai’s judgments are true, and upright altogether.

١٠ 10 أَشْهَى مِنَ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْإِبْرِيزِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ، وَأَحْلَى مِنَ ٱلْعَسَلِ وَقَطْرِ ٱلشِّهَادِ.

More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.

١١ 11 أَيْضًا عَبْدُكَ يُحَذَّرُ بِهَا، وَفِي حِفْظِهَا ثَوَابٌ عَظِيمٌ.

Moreover by them is your servant warned. In keeping them there is great reward.

١٢ 12 اَلسَّهَوَاتُ مَنْ يَشْعُرُ بِهَا؟ مِنَ ٱلْخَطَايَا ٱلْمُسْتَتِرَةِ أَبْرِئْنِي.

Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.

١٣ 13 أَيْضًا مِنَ ٱلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ ٱحْفَظْ عَبْدَكَ فَلَا يَتَسَلَّطُوا عَلَيَّ. حِينَئِذٍ أَكُونُ كَامِلًا وَأَتَبَرَّأُ مِنْ ذَنْبٍ عَظِيمٍ.

Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.

١٤ 14 لِتَكُنْ أَقْوَالُ فَمِي وَفِكْرُ قَلْبِي مَرْضِيَّةً أَمَامَكَ يَارَبُّ، صَخْرَتِي وَوَلِيِّي.

Let the words of my mouth and the higgayon (meditation) of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Adonai, my rock, and my redeemer.
