اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 40

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ اِنْتِظَارًا ٱنْتَظَرْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ، فَمَالَ إِلَيَّ وَسَمِعَ صُرَاخِي،

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. I have diligently expected YHWH, And He inclines to me, and hears my cry,

٢ 2 وَأَصْعَدَنِي مِنْ جُبِّ ٱلْهَلَاكِ، مِنْ طِينِ ٱلْحَمْأَةِ، وَأَقَامَ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ رِجْلَيَّ. ثَبَّتَ خُطُوَاتِي،

And He causes me to come up From a pit of desolation—from mire of mud, And He raises up my feet on a rock, He is establishing my steps.

٣ 3 وَجَعَلَ فِي فَمِي تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً، تَسْبِيحَةً لِإِلَهِنَا. كَثِيرُونَ يَرَوْنَ وَيَخَافُونَ وَيَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ.

And He puts a new song in my mouth, “Praise to our God.” Many see and fear, and trust in YHWH.

٤ 4 طُوبَى لِلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبَّ مُتَّكَلَهُ، وَلَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ إِلَى ٱلْغَطَارِيسِ وَٱلْمُنْحَرِفِينَ إِلَى ٱلْكَذِبِ.

O the blessedness of the man Who has made YHWH his trust, And has not turned to the proud, And those turning aside to lies.

٥ 5 كَثِيرًا مَا جَعَلْتَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي عَجَائِبَكَ وَأَفْكَارَكَ مِنْ جِهَتِنَا. لَا تُقَوَّمُ لَدَيْكَ. لَأُخْبِرَنَّ وَأَتَكَلَّمَنَّ بِهَا. زَادَتْ عَنْ أَنْ تُعَدَّ.

You have done much, my God YHWH; Your wonders and Your thoughts toward us, There is none to arrange to You, I declare and speak: They have been more than to be numbered.

٦ 6 بِذَبِيحَةٍ وَتَقْدِمَةٍ لَمْ تُسَرَّ. أُذُنَيَّ فَتَحْتَ. مُحْرَقَةً وَذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيَّةٍ لَمْ تَطْلُبْ.

Sacrifice and present You have not desired, But a body You have prepared for me, Burnt and sin-offering You have not asked.

٧ 7 حِينَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «هَأَنَذَا جِئْتُ. بِدَرْجِ ٱلْكِتَابِ مَكْتُوبٌ عَنِّي:

Then I said, “Behold, I have come, In the roll of the scroll it is written of me,

٨ 8 أَنْ أَفْعَلَ مَشِيئَتَكَ يَا إِلَهِي سُرِرْتُ، وَشَرِيعَتُكَ فِي وَسَطِ أَحْشَائِي».

I have delighted to do Your pleasure, my God, And Your law [is] within my heart.”

٩ 9 بَشَّرْتُ بِبِرٍّ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ. هُوَذَا شَفَتَايَ لَمْ أَمْنَعْهُمَا. أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ عَلِمْتَ.

I have proclaimed tidings of righteousness In the great assembly, Behold, I do not restrain my lips, O YHWH, You have known.

١٠ 10 لَمْ أَكْتُمْ عَدْلَكَ فِي وَسَطِ قَلْبِي. تَكَلَّمْتُ بِأَمَانَتِكَ وَخَلَاصِكَ. لَمْ أُخْفِ رَحْمَتَكَ وَحَقَّكَ عَنِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ.

I have not concealed Your righteousness In the midst of my heart, I have told of Your faithfulness and Your salvation, I have not hidden Your kindness and Your truth, To the great assembly.

١١ 11 أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ فَلَا تَمْنَعْ رَأْفَتَكَ عَنِّي. تَنْصُرُنِي رَحْمَتُكَ وَحَقُّكَ دَائِمًا.

You, O YHWH, do not restrain Your mercies from me, Your kindness and Your truth continually keep me.

١٢ 12 لِأَنَّ شُرُورًا لَا تُحْصَى قَدِ ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي. حَاقَتْ بِي آثَامِي، وَلَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُبْصِرَ. كَثُرَتْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ شَعْرِ رَأْسِي، وَقَلْبِي قَدْ تَرَكَنِي.

For innumerable evils have surrounded me, My iniquities have overtaken me, And I have not been able to see; They have been more than the hairs of my head, And my heart has forsaken me.

١٣ 13 اِرْتَضِ يَارَبُّ بِأَنْ تُنَجِّيَنِي. يَارَبُّ، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ.

Be pleased, O YHWH, to deliver me, O YHWH, make haste for my help.

١٤ 14 لِيَخْزَ وَلْيَخْجَلْ مَعًا ٱلَّذِينَ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي لِإِهْلَاكِهَا. لِيَرْتَدَّ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، وَلْيَخْزَ ٱلْمَسْرُورُونَ بِأَذِيَّتِي.

They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are seeking my soul to destroy it, They are turned backward, And are ashamed, who are desiring my evil.

١٥ 15 لِيَسْتَوْحِشْ مِنْ أَجْلِ خِزْيِهِمِ ٱلْقَائِلُونَ لِي: «هَهْ! هَهْ!».

They are desolate because of their shame, Who are saying to me, “Aha, aha.”

١٦ 16 لِيَبْتَهِجْ وَيَفْرَحْ بِكَ جَمِيعُ طَالِبِيكَ مُحِبُّو خَلَاصِكَ: «يَتَعَظَّمُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

All seeking You rejoice and are glad in You, Those loving Your salvation continually say, “YHWH is magnified.”

١٧ 17 أَمَّا أَنَا فَمِسْكِينٌ وَبَائِسٌ. ٱلرَّبُّ يَهْتَمُّ بِي. عَوْنِي وَمُنْقِذِي أَنْتَ. يَا إِلَهِي لَا تُبْطِئْ.

And I [am] poor and needy, The Lord devises for me. You [are] my help and my deliverer, O my God, do not linger.
