Psalms 54

1 For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Isn’t David hiding himself among us?” Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

١ لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ذَوَاتِ ٱلْأَوْتَارِ». قَصِيدَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ عِنْدَمَا أَتَى ٱلزِّيفِيُّونَ وَقَالُوا لِشَاوُلَ: «أَلَيْسَ دَاوُدُ مُخْتَبِئًا عِنْدَنَا؟». اَللَّهُمَّ، بِٱسْمِكَ خَلِّصْنِي، وَبِقُوَّتِكَ ٱحْكُمْ لِي.

2 Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.

٢ ٱسْمَعْ يَا ٱللهُ صَلَاتِي. ٱصْغَ إِلَى كَلَامِ فَمِي.

3 For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. (Selah)

٣ لِأَنَّ غُرَبَاءَ قَدْ قَامُوا عَلَيَّ، وَعُتَاةً طَلَبُوا نَفْسِي. لَمْ يَجْعَلُوا ٱللهَ أَمَامَهُمْ. سِلَاهْ.

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

٤ هُوَذَا ٱللهُ مُعِينٌ لِي. ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْنَ عَاضِدِي نَفْسِي.

5 He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

٥ يَرْجِعُ ٱلشَّرُّ عَلَى أَعْدَائِي. بِحَقِّكَ أَفْنِهِمْ.

6 With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, Yahweh, for it is good.

٦ أَذْبَحُ لَكَ مُنْتَدِبًا. أَحْمَدُ ٱسْمَكَ يَارَبُّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ.

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.

٧ لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ كُلِّ ضِيْقٍ نَجَّانِي، وَبِأَعْدَائِي رَأَتْ عَيْنِي.
