المَزامِير 3
| رَبُّ مَا أَكْثَرَ خُصُومِي! كَثِيرُونَ يَقُومُونَ عَلَيَّ. | ١ 1 |
Yahweh, I have many enemies [DOU]! There are many people who oppose/rebel against me.
| كَثِيرُونَ يَقُولُونَ عَنِّي: لاَ خَلاَصَ لَهُ بِإِلَهِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
Many people are saying about me, “God will [certainly] not help him!”
| وَلَكِنَّكَ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ تُرْسِي. إِنَّكَ مَجْدِي وَرَافِعُ رَأْسِي. | ٣ 3 |
But Yahweh, you are like a shield [that protects me] [MET]. You greatly honor me, and you encourage me (OR, enable me to triumph over my enemies) [IDM].
| بِمِلْءِ صَوْتِي أَدْعُو إِلَى الرَّبِّ فَيُجِيبُنِي مِنْ جَبَلِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ. | ٤ 4 |
I cry out to you, Yahweh, and you answer me from [Zion], your sacred hill.
| رَقَدْتُ فَنِمْتُ، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظْتُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُصِيبَنِي شَرٌّ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسْنِدُنِي. | ٥ 5 |
[At night] I lie down and sleep, and I awake [in the morning feeling good/refreshed] because you, Yahweh, (take care of/protect) me [all during the night].
| لَنْ أَخْشَى عَشَرَاتِ الأُلُوفِ مِنَ البَشَرِ الْمُلْتَفِّينَ حَوْلِي، الْمُحْتَشِدِينَ لِمُحَارَبَتِي. | ٦ 6 |
There may be thousands of [enemy] soldiers who surround me, but I am not afraid.
| قُمْ يَارَبُّ. خَلِّصْنِي يَاإِلَهِي! فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ ضَرَبْتَ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِي عَلَى فُكُوكِهِمْ، فَهَشَّمْتَ أَسْنَانَ الأَشْرَارِ. | ٧ 7 |
Yahweh, arise! My God, [come and] rescue me [again]! You [insult] my enemies by slapping them on their cheeks; [when you strike them], you break their teeth, [with the result that they cannot hurt anyone] [MET].
| أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ الْمُخَلِّصُ يَارَبُّ. فَلْتَفِضْ بَرَكَتُكَ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ. | ٨ 8 |
Yahweh, you are the one who saves your people [from their enemies]. Yahweh, bless your people!
