< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 7 >

شَجَوِيَّةٌ لِدَاوُدَ، غَنَّاهَا لِلرَّبِّ بِسَبَبِ كَلَامِ كُوشَ ٱلْبِنْيَامِينِيِّ يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي، عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ. خَلِّصْنِي مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَطْرُدُونَنِي وَنَجِّنِي، ١ 1
A Psalm of David, which he sang to the Lord because of the words of Cush, the son of Jemini. O Lord, my God, in you I have hoped. Save me from all those who persecute me, and free me:
لِئَلَّا يَفْتَرِسَ كَأَسَدٍ نَفْسِي هَاشِمًا إِيَّاهَا وَلَا مُنْقِذَ. ٢ 2
lest at any time, like a lion, he might seize my soul, while there is no one to redeem me, nor any who can save.
يَارَبُّ إِلَهِي، إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ فَعَلْتُ هَذَا. إِنْ وُجِدَ ظُلْمٌ فِي يَدَيَّ. ٣ 3
O Lord, my God, if there is iniquity in my hands, if I have done this:
إِنْ كَافَأْتُ مُسَالِمِي شَرًّا، وَسَلَبْتُ مُضَايِقِي بِلَا سَبَبٍ، ٤ 4
if I have repaid those who rendered evils to me, may I deservedly fall away empty before my enemies:
فَلْيُطَارِدْ عَدُوٌّ نَفْسِي وَلْيُدْرِكْهَا، وَلْيَدُسْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ حَيَاتِي، وَلْيَحُطَّ إِلَى ٱلتُّرَابِ مَجْدِي. سِلَاهْ. ٥ 5
let the enemy pursue my soul, and take hold of it, and trample my life into the earth, and drag down my glory into the dust. (Pause)
قُمْ يَارَبُّ بِغَضَبِكَ. ٱرْتَفِعْ عَلَى سَخَطِ مُضَايِقِيَّ وَٱنْتَبِهْ لِي. بِٱلْحَقِّ أَوْصَيْتَ. ٦ 6
Rise up, Lord, in your anger. And be exalted to the borders of my enemies. And rise up, O Lord my God, according to the precept that you commanded,
وَمَجْمَعُ ٱلْقَبَائِلِ يُحِيطُ بِكَ، فَعُدْ فَوْقَهَا إِلَى ٱلْعُلَى. ٧ 7
and a congregation of people will surround you. And, because of this, return on high.
ٱلرَّبُّ يَدِينُ ٱلشُّعُوبَ. ٱقْضِ لِي يَارَبُّ كَحَقِّي وَمِثْلَ كَمَالِي ٱلَّذِي فِيَّ. ٨ 8
The Lord judges the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice and according to my innocence within me.
لِيَنْتَهِ شَرُّ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ وَثَبِّتِ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ. فَإِنَّ فَاحِصَ ٱلْقُلُوبِ وَٱلْكُلَى ٱللهُ ٱلْبَارُّ. ٩ 9
The wickedness of sinners will be consumed, and you will direct the just: the examiner of hearts and temperaments is God.
تُرْسِي عِنْدَ ٱللهِ مُخَلِّصِ مُسْتَقِيمِي ٱلْقُلُوبِ. ١٠ 10
Just is my help from the Lord, who saves the upright of heart.
ٱللهُ قَاضٍ عَادِلٌ، وَإِلَهٌ يَسْخَطُ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ. ١١ 11
God is a just judge, strong and patient. How could he be angry throughout every day?
إِنْ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ يُحَدِّدْ سَيْفَهُ. مَدَّ قَوْسَهُ وَهَيَّأَهَا، ١٢ 12
Unless you will be converted, he will brandish his sword. He has extended his bow and made it ready.
وَسَدَّدَ نَحوَهُ آلةَ ٱلْمَوْتِ. يَجْعَلُ سِهَامَهُ مُلْتَهِبَةً. ١٣ 13
And with it, he has prepared instruments of death. He has produced his arrows for those on fire.
هُوَذَا يَمْخَضُ بِٱلْإِثْمِ. حَمَلَ تَعَبًا وَوَلَدَ كَذِبًا. ١٤ 14
Behold him who has given birth to injustice: he has conceived sorrow and has begotten iniquity.
كَرَا جُبًّا. حَفَرَهُ، فَسَقَطَ فِي ٱلْهُوَّةِ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَ. ١٥ 15
He has opened a pit and enlarged it. And he has fallen into the hole that he made.
يَرْجِعُ تَعَبُهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَعَلَى هَامَتِهِ يَهْبِطُ ظُلْمُهُ. ١٦ 16
His sorrow will be turned upon his own head, and his iniquity will descend upon his highest point.
أَحْمَدُ ٱلرَّبَّ حَسَبَ بِرِّهِ، وَأُرَنِّمُ لِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْعَلِيِّ. ١٧ 17
I will confess to the Lord according to his justice, and I will sing a psalm to the name of the Lord Most High.
