< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 63 >

مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ يَهُوذَا يَا ٱللهُ، إِلَهِي أَنْتَ. إِلَيْكَ أُبَكِّرُ. عَطِشَتْ إِلَيْكَ نَفْسِي، يَشْتَاقُ إِلَيْكَ جَسَدِي فِي أَرْضٍ نَاشِفَةٍ وَيَابِسَةٍ بِلَا مَاءٍ، ١ 1
“A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.” O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry land, and it is faint without water.
لِكَيْ أُبْصِرَ قُوَّتَكَ وَمَجْدَكَ. كَمَا قَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ فِي قُدْسِكَ. ٢ 2
As I have beheld thee in the sanctuary, seeing thy strength and thy glory;
لِأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. شَفَتَايَ تُسَبِّحَانِكَ. ٣ 3
Because thy kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee:
هَكَذَا أُبَارِكُكَ فِي حَيَاتِي. بِٱسْمِكَ أَرْفَعُ يَدَيَّ. ٤ 4
Thus will I bless thee while I live; in thy name will I lift up my hands.
كَمَا مِنْ شَحْمٍ وَدَسَمٍ تَشْبَعُ نَفْسِي، وَبِشَفَتَيْ ٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ يُسَبِّحُكَ فَمِي. ٥ 5
As with fat and marrow will my soul be satisfied; and with tuneful lips shall my mouth praise thee.
إِذَا ذَكَرْتُكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِي، فِي ٱلسُّهْدِ أَلْهَجُ بِكَ، ٦ 6
When I remember thee upon my couch, I meditate on thee in the night-watches.
لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَوْنًا لِي، وَبِظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ أَبْتَهِجُ. ٧ 7
Because thou hast been a help unto me; and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing rejoicingly.
اِلْتَصَقَتْ نَفْسِي بِكَ. يَمِينُكَ تَعْضُدُنِي. ٨ 8
My soul cleaveth unto following thee: me thy right hand upholdeth.
أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلتَّهْلُكَةِ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي، فَيَدْخُلُونَ فِي أَسَافِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٩ 9
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go down into the lowest deeps of the earth.
يُدْفَعُونَ إِلَى يَدَيِ ٱلسَّيْفِ. يَكُونُونَ نَصِيبًا لِبَنَاتِ آوَى. ١٠ 10
They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword: they shall become a prey for jackals.
أَمَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ فَيَفْرَحُ بِٱللهِ. يَفْتَخِرُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَحْلِفُ بِهِ، لِأَنَّ أَفْوَاهَ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ تُسَدُّ. ١١ 11
But the king shall rejoice in God: every one that sweareth by him shall glorify himself; for the mouth of those that speak falsehood shall be stopped.
