< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 71 >

بِكَ يَارَبُّ ٱحْتَمَيْتُ، فَلَا أَخْزَى إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. ١ 1
In you, O Lord, I take refuge, let me never be put to shame.
بِعَدْلِكَ نَجِّنِي وَأَنْقِذْنِي. أَمِلْ إِلَيَّ أُذْنَكَ وَخَلِّصْنِي. ٢ 2
In your faithfulness save me and rescue me, bend your ear to me and save me.
كُنْ لِي صَخْرَةَ مَلْجَإٍ أَدْخُلُهُ دَائِمًا. أَمَرْتَ بِخَلَاصِي لِأَنَّكَ صَخْرَتِي وَحِصْنِي. ٣ 3
Be to me a rock of defence, a fortified house, to save me; for my rock and my fortress are you.
يَا إِلَهِي، نَجِّنِي مِنْ يَدِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، مِنْ كَفِّ فَاعِلِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلظَّالِمِ. ٤ 4
Save me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel.
لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَجَائِي يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلرَّبَّ، مُتَّكَلِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ. ٥ 5
For you, Lord, are my hope, in whom from my youth I have trusted.
عَلَيْكَ ٱسْتَنَدْتُ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، وَأَنْتَ مُخْرِجِي مِنْ أَحْشَاءِ أُمِّي. بِكَ تَسْبِيحِي دَائِمًا. ٦ 6
On you have I leaned from my birth; from my mother’s womb it was you who did draw me. In you is my hope evermore.
صِرْتُ كَآيَةٍ لِكَثِيرِينَ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَمَلْجَإِي ٱلْقَوِيُّ. ٧ 7
I have been as a wonder to many, for you are my refuge and strength.
يَمْتَلِئُ فَمِي مِنْ تَسْبِيحِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ مِنْ مَجْدِكَ. ٨ 8
All the day long my mouth is filled with your praise and your glory.
لَا تَرْفُضْنِي فِي زَمَنِ ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ. لَا تَتْرُكْنِي عِنْدَ فَنَاءِ قُوَّتِي. ٩ 9
Cast me not off in the time of old age; when my strength is spent, forsake me not.
لِأَنَّ أَعْدَائِي تَقَاوَلُوا عَلَيَّ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَرْصُدُونَ نَفْسِي تَآمَرُوا مَعًا. ١٠ 10
For my foes whisper against me, they who watch me take counsel together;
قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ تَرَكَهُ. ٱلْحَقُوهُ وَأَمْسِكُوهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَا مُنْقِذَ لَهُ». ١١ 11
‘God has left him,’ they say: ‘pursue and seize him, for he is helpless.’
يَا ٱللهُ، لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. يَا إِلَهِي، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ. ١٢ 12
O God, be not far from me, haste, O my God, to my help.
لِيَخْزَ وَيَفْنَ مُخَاصِمُو نَفْسِي. لِيَلْبَسِ ٱلْعَارَ وَٱلْخَجَلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا. ١٣ 13
Put my foes to shame and dishonour, with insult and shame be they covered.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَرْجُو دَائِمًا، وَأَزِيدُ عَلَى كُلِّ تَسْبِيحِكَ. ١٤ 14
But I will never stop hoping, and more and yet more will I praise you.
فَمِي يُحَدِّثُ بِعَدْلِكَ، ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ بِخَلَاصِكَ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ لَهَا أَعْدَادًا. ١٥ 15
All the day long shall my mouth tell your faithfulness and your salvation, though I know not how they may be counted.
آتِي بِجَبَرُوتِ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. أَذْكُرُ بِرَّكَ وَحْدَكَ. ١٦ 16
I will tell of the might of the Lord, and your faithfulness praise, you alone.
اَللَّهُمَّ، قَدْ عَلَّمْتَنِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ، وَإِلَى ٱلْآنَ أُخْبِرُ بِعَجَائِبِكَ. ١٧ 17
You have taught me, O God, from my youth, and till now have I told of your wonders.
وَأَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ وَٱلشَّيْبِيَا ٱللهُ لَا تَتْرُكْنِي، حَتَّى أُخْبِرَ بِذِرَاعِكَ ٱلْجِيلَ ٱلْمُقْبِلَ، وَبِقُوَّتِكَ كُلَّ آتٍ. ١٨ 18
Even in old age and grey hair, O God, do not forsake me. Still would I tell of your might unto all generations to come.
وَبِرُّكَ إِلَى ٱلْعَلْيَاءِ يَا ٱللهُ، ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ ٱلْعَظَائِمَ. يَا ٱللهُ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟ ١٩ 19
Your power and your justice, O God, extend as far as the heavens: for great are the things you have done. Who is like you, O God?
أَنْتَ ٱلَّذِي أَرَيْتَنَا ضِيقَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً وَرَدِيئَةً، تَعُودُ فَتُحْيِينَا، وَمِنْ أَعْمَاقِ ٱلْأَرْضِ تَعُودُ فَتُصْعِدُنَا. ٢٠ 20
You have caused us to see troubles many, but you will revive us again. From the depths of the earth you will bring me up again.
تَزِيدُ عَظَمَتِي وَتَرْجِعُ فَتُعَزِّينِي. ٢١ 21
You will multiply my greatness, and comfort me again.
فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَحْمَدُكَ بِرَبَابٍ، حَقَّكَ يَا إِلَهِي. أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ بِٱلْعُودِ يَا قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢٢ 22
So with harp I will praise you, and your faithfulness, O my God; and make music to you on the lyre, O you Holy One of Israel.
تَبْتَهِجُ شَفَتَايَ إِذْ أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ، وَنَفْسِي ٱلَّتِي فَدَيْتَهَا. ٢٣ 23
My lips shall ring out their joy, my mouth shall sing praises to you; all of me, which you have redeemed.
وَلِسَانِي أَيْضًا ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُ بِبِرِّكَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَزِيَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَجِلَ ٱلْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا. ٢٤ 24
Yes, all the day long shall my tongue utter your righteousness; for ashamed and confounded are they who were seeking my hurt.
