اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 61

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ذَوَاتِ ٱلْأَوْتَارِ». لِدَاوُدَ اِسْمَعْ يَا ٱللهُ صُرَاخِي، وَٱصْغَ إِلَى صَلَاتِي.

“To the chief musician upon Neginah, by David.” Hear, O God, my entreaty; listen to my prayer.

٢ 2 مِنْ أَقْصَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَدْعُوكَ إِذَا غُشِيَ عَلَى قَلْبِي. إِلَى صَخْرَةٍ أَرْفَعَ مِنِّي تَهْدِينِي.

From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is too high for me.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ مَلْجَأً لِي، بُرْجَ قُوَّةٍ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ.

For thou hast been a shelter unto me, a strong tower against the enemy.

٤ 4 لَأَسْكُنَنَّ فِي مَسْكَنِكَ إِلَى ٱلدُّهُورِ. أَحْتَمِي بِسِتْرِ جَنَاحَيْكَ. سِلَاهْ.

Let me sojourn in thy tent to all eternity; let me be sheltered under the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

٥ 5 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ يَا ٱللهُ ٱسْتَمَعْتَ نُذُورِي. أَعْطَيْتَ مِيرَاثَ خَائِفِي ٱسْمِكَ.

For thou, O God, hast truly listened to my vows: thou hast given back the heritage of those that fear thy name.

٦ 6 إِلَى أَيَّامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ تُضِيفُ أَيَّامًا. سِنِينُهُ كَدَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ.

Oh, add days unto the king's days: may his years be as of many generations.

٧ 7 يَجْلِسُ قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. ٱجْعَلْ رَحْمَةً وَحَقًّا يَحْفَظَانِهِ.

May he abide for ever before God: ordain that kindness and truth may guard him.

٨ 8 هَكَذَا أُرَنِّمُ لِٱسْمِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، لِوَفَاءِ نُذُورِي يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا.

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may pay my vows day by day.
