اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 71

١ 1 بِكَ يَارَبُّ ٱحْتَمَيْتُ، فَلَا أَخْزَى إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ.

In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, Do not let me be disappointed for all time.

٢ 2 بِعَدْلِكَ نَجِّنِي وَأَنْقِذْنِي. أَمِلْ إِلَيَّ أُذْنَكَ وَخَلِّصْنِي.

You deliver me in Your righteousness, And cause me to escape, Incline Your ear to me, and save me.

٣ 3 كُنْ لِي صَخْرَةَ مَلْجَإٍ أَدْخُلُهُ دَائِمًا. أَمَرْتَ بِخَلَاصِي لِأَنَّكَ صَخْرَتِي وَحِصْنِي.

Be a rock to me—a habitation, To go in continually, You have given command to save me, For You [are] my rock and my bulwark.

٤ 4 يَا إِلَهِي، نَجِّنِي مِنْ يَدِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، مِنْ كَفِّ فَاعِلِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلظَّالِمِ.

O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

٥ 5 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَجَائِي يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلرَّبَّ، مُتَّكَلِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ.

For You [are] my hope, O Lord YHWH, My trust from my youth.

٦ 6 عَلَيْكَ ٱسْتَنَدْتُ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، وَأَنْتَ مُخْرِجِي مِنْ أَحْشَاءِ أُمِّي. بِكَ تَسْبِيحِي دَائِمًا.

I have been supported from the womb by You, You cut me out from my mother’s bowels, My praise [is] continually in You.

٧ 7 صِرْتُ كَآيَةٍ لِكَثِيرِينَ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَمَلْجَإِي ٱلْقَوِيُّ.

I have been as a wonder to many, And You [are] my strong refuge.

٨ 8 يَمْتَلِئُ فَمِي مِنْ تَسْبِيحِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ مِنْ مَجْدِكَ.

My mouth is filled [with] Your praise, All the day [with] Your beauty.

٩ 9 لَا تَرْفُضْنِي فِي زَمَنِ ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ. لَا تَتْرُكْنِي عِنْدَ فَنَاءِ قُوَّتِي.

Do not cast me off at the time of old age, Do not forsake me according to the consumption of my power.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّ أَعْدَائِي تَقَاوَلُوا عَلَيَّ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَرْصُدُونَ نَفْسِي تَآمَرُوا مَعًا.

For my enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,

١١ 11 قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ تَرَكَهُ. ٱلْحَقُوهُ وَأَمْسِكُوهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَا مُنْقِذَ لَهُ».

Saying, “God has forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.”

١٢ 12 يَا ٱللهُ، لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. يَا إِلَهِي، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ.

O God, do not be far from me, O my God, make haste for my help.

١٣ 13 لِيَخْزَ وَيَفْنَ مُخَاصِمُو نَفْسِي. لِيَلْبَسِ ٱلْعَارَ وَٱلْخَجَلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا.

They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,

١٤ 14 أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَرْجُو دَائِمًا، وَأَزِيدُ عَلَى كُلِّ تَسْبِيحِكَ.

And I continually wait with hope, And have added to all Your praise.

١٥ 15 فَمِي يُحَدِّثُ بِعَدْلِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ بِخَلَاصِكَ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ لَهَا أَعْدَادًا.

My mouth recounts Your righteousness, All the day Your salvation, For I have not known the numbers.

١٦ 16 آتِي بِجَبَرُوتِ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. أَذْكُرُ بِرَّكَ وَحْدَكَ.

I come in [the] might of Lord YHWH, I mention Your righteousness—Yours alone.

١٧ 17 اَللَّهُمَّ، قَدْ عَلَّمْتَنِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ، وَإِلَى ٱلْآنَ أُخْبِرُ بِعَجَائِبِكَ.

God, You have taught me from my youth, And until now I declare Your wonders.

١٨ 18 وَأَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ وَٱلشَّيْبِيَا ٱللهُ لَا تَتْرُكْنِي، حَتَّى أُخْبِرَ بِذِرَاعِكَ ٱلْجِيلَ ٱلْمُقْبِلَ، وَبِقُوَّتِكَ كُلَّ آتٍ.

And also to old age and grey hairs, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to a generation, Your might to everyone that comes.

١٩ 19 وَبِرُّكَ إِلَى ٱلْعَلْيَاءِ يَا ٱللهُ، ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ ٱلْعَظَائِمَ. يَا ٱللهُ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟

And Your righteousness, O God, [is] to the heights, Because You have done great things, O God, who [is] like You?

٢٠ 20 أَنْتَ ٱلَّذِي أَرَيْتَنَا ضِيقَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً وَرَدِيئَةً، تَعُودُ فَتُحْيِينَا، وَمِنْ أَعْمَاقِ ٱلْأَرْضِ تَعُودُ فَتُصْعِدُنَا.

Because You have showed me many and sad distresses, You turn back—You revive me, And from the depths of the earth, You turn back—You bring me up.

٢١ 21 تَزِيدُ عَظَمَتِي وَتَرْجِعُ فَتُعَزِّينِي.

You increase my greatness, And You surround—You comfort me,

٢٢ 22 فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَحْمَدُكَ بِرَبَابٍ، حَقَّكَ يَا إِلَهِي. أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ بِٱلْعُودِ يَا قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

I also thank You with a vessel of stringed instrument, Your truth, O my God, I sing to You with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,

٢٣ 23 تَبْتَهِجُ شَفَتَايَ إِذْ أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ، وَنَفْسِي ٱلَّتِي فَدَيْتَهَا.

My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to You, And my soul that You have redeemed,

٢٤ 24 وَلِسَانِي أَيْضًا ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُ بِبِرِّكَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَزِيَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَجِلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا.

My tongue also utters Your righteousness all the day, Because ashamed—because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!
