اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 51

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ عِنْدَمَا جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ نَاثَانُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ بَعْدَ مَا دَخَلَ إِلَى بَثْشَبَعَ اِرْحَمْنِي يَا ٱللهُ حَسَبَ رَحْمَتِكَ. حَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ رَأْفَتِكَ ٱمْحُ مَعَاصِيَّ.

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. When Nathan the prophet came to him after his adultery with Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your loving devotion; according to Your great compassion, blot out my transgressions.

٢ 2 ٱغْسِلْنِي كَثِيرًا مِنْ إِثْمِي، وَمِنْ خَطِيَّتِي طَهِّرْنِي.

Wash me clean of my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.

٣ 3 لِأَنِّي عَارِفٌ بِمَعَاصِيَّ، وَخَطِيَّتِي أَمَامِي دَائِمًا.

For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.

٤ 4 إِلَيْكَ وَحْدَكَ أَخْطَأْتُ، وَٱلشَّرَّ قُدَّامَ عَيْنَيْكَ صَنَعْتُ، لِكَيْ تَتَبَرَّرَ فِي أَقْوَالِكَ، وَتَزْكُوَ فِي قَضَائِكَ.

Against You, You only, have I sinned and done what is evil in Your sight, so that You may be proved right when You speak and blameless when You judge.

٥ 5 هَأَنَذَا بِٱلْإِثْمِ صُوِّرْتُ، وَبِٱلْخَطِيَّةِ حَبِلَتْ بِي أُمِّي.

Surely I was brought forth in iniquity; I was sinful when my mother conceived me.

٦ 6 هَا قَدْ سُرِرْتَ بِٱلْحَقِّ فِي ٱلْبَاطِنِ، فَفِي ٱلسَّرِيرَةِ تُعَرِّفُنِي حِكْمَةً.

Surely You desire truth in the inmost being; You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

٧ 7 طَهِّرْنِي بِٱلزُّوفَا فَأَطْهُرَ. ٱغْسِلْنِي فَأَبْيَضَّ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلثَّلْجِ.

Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

٨ 8 أَسْمِعْنِي سُرُورًا وَفَرَحًا، فَتَبْتَهِجَ عِظَامٌ سَحَقْتَهَا.

Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones You have crushed rejoice.

٩ 9 ٱسْتُرْ وَجْهَكَ عَنْ خَطَايَايَ، وَٱمْحُ كُلَّ آثَامِي.

Hide Your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities.

١٠ 10 قَلْبًا نَقِيًّا ٱخْلُقْ فِيَّ يَا ٱللهُ، وَرُوحًا مُسْتَقِيمًا جَدِّدْ فِي دَاخِلِي.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.

١١ 11 لَا تَطْرَحْنِي مِنْ قُدَّامِ وَجْهِكَ، وَرُوحَكَ ٱلْقُدُّوسَ لَا تَنْزِعْهُ مِنِّي.

Cast me not away from Your presence; take not Your Holy Spirit from me.

١٢ 12 رُدَّ لِي بَهْجَةَ خَلَاصِكَ، وَبِرُوحٍ مُنْتَدِبَةٍ ٱعْضُدْنِي.

Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit.

١٣ 13 فَأُعَلِّمَ ٱلْأَثَمَةَ طُرُقَكَ، وَٱلْخُطَاةُ إِلَيْكَ يَرْجِعُونَ.

Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, and sinners will return to You.

١٤ 14 نَجِّنِي مِنَ ٱلدِّمَاءِ يَا ٱللهُ، إِلَهَ خَلَاصِي، فَيُسَبِّحَ لِسَانِي بِرَّكَ.

Deliver me from bloodguilt, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing of Your righteousness.

١٥ 15 يَارَبُّ ٱفْتَحْ شَفَتَيَّ، فَيُخْبِرَ فَمِي بِتَسْبِيحِكَ.

O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare Your praise.

١٦ 16 لِأَنَّكَ لَا تُسَرُّ بِذَبِيحَةٍ وَإِلَّا فَكُنْتُ أُقَدِّمُهَا. بِمُحْرَقَةٍ لَا تَرْضَى.

For You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; You take no pleasure in burnt offerings.

١٧ 17 ذَبَائِحُ ٱللهِ هِيَ رُوحٌ مُنْكَسِرَةٌ. ٱلْقَلْبُ ٱلْمُنْكَسِرُ وَٱلْمُنْسَحِقُ يَا ٱللهُ لَا تَحْتَقِرُهُ.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

١٨ 18 أَحْسِنْ بِرِضَاكَ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ. ٱبْنِ أَسْوَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ.

In Your good pleasure, cause Zion to prosper; build up the walls of Jerusalem.

١٩ 19 حِينَئِذٍ تُسَرُّ بِذَبَائِحِ ٱلْبِرِّ، مُحْرَقَةٍ وَتَقْدِمَةٍ تَامَّةٍ. حِينَئِذٍ يُصْعِدُونَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِكَ عُجُولًا.

Then You will delight in righteous sacrifices, in whole burnt offerings; then bulls will be offered on Your altar.
