< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 17 >
صَلَاةٌ لِدَاوُدَ اِسْمَعْ يَارَبُّ لِلْحَقِّ. أَنْصِتْ إِلَى صُرَاخِي. أَصْغِ إِلَى صَلَاتِي مِنْ شَفَتَيْنِ بِلَا غِشٍّ. | ١ 1 |
A prayer of David. Listen, O Lord of my righteousness, attend to my petition; give ear to my prayer not [uttered] with deceitful lips.
مِنْ قُدَّامِكَ يَخْرُجُ قَضَائِي. عَيْنَاكَ تَنْظُرَانِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَاتِ. | ٢ 2 |
Let my judgement come forth from your presence; let mine eyes behold righteousness.
جَرَّبْتَ قَلْبِي. تَعَهَّدْتَهُ لَيْلًا. مَحَّصْتَنِي. لَا تَجِدُ فِيَّ ذُمُومًا. لَا يَتَعَدَّى فَمِي. | ٣ 3 |
You has proved mine heart; you have visited [me] by night; you have tried me as with fire, and unrighteousness has not been found in me: [I am purposed] that my mouth shall not speak [amiss].
مِنْ جِهَةِ أَعْمَالِ ٱلنَّاسِ فَبِكَلَامِ شَفَتَيْكَ أَنَا تَحَفَّظْتُ مِنْ طُرُقِ ٱلْمُعْتَنِفِ. | ٤ 4 |
As for the works of men, by the words of your lips I have guarded [myself from] hard ways.
تَمَسَّكَتْ خُطُوَاتِي بِآثَارِكَ فَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمَايَ. | ٥ 5 |
Direct my steps in your paths, that my steps slip not.
أَنَا دَعَوْتُكَ لِأَنَّكَ تَسْتَجِيبُ لِي يَا ٱللهُ. أَمِلْ أُذُنَيْكَ إِلَيَّ. ٱسْمَعْ كَلَامِي. | ٦ 6 |
I have cried, for you heard me, O God: incline your ear to me, and listen to my words.
مَيِّزْ مَرَاحِمَكَ، يَامُخَلِّصَ ٱلْمُتَّكِلِينَ عَلَيْكَ، بِيَمِينِكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَاوِمِينَ. | ٧ 7 |
Show the marvels of your mercies, you that save them that hope in you.
ٱحْفَظْنِي مِثْلَ حَدَقَةِ ٱلْعَيْنِ. بِظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ ٱسْتُرْنِي | ٨ 8 |
Keep me as the apple of the eye from those that resist your right hand: you shall screen me by the covering of your wings,
مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُخْرِبُونَنِي، أَعْدَائِي بِٱلنَّفْسِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَكْتَنِفُونَنِي. | ٩ 9 |
from the face of the ungodly that have afflicted me: mine enemies have compassed about my soul.
قَلْبَهُمُ ٱلسَّمِينَ قَدْ أَغْلَقُوا. بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ قَدْ تَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْكِبْرِيَاءِ. | ١٠ 10 |
They have enclosed [themselves with] their own fat: their mouth has spoken pride.
فِي خُطُوَاتِنَا ٱلْآنَ قَدْ أَحَاطُوا بِنَا. نَصَبُوا أَعْيُنَهُمْ لِيُزْلِقُونَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١١ 11 |
They have now cast me out and compassed me round about: they have set their eyes [so as] to bow them down to the ground.
مَثَلُهُ مَثَلُ ٱلْأَسَدِ ٱلْقَرِمِ إِلَى ٱلِٱفْتِرَاسِ، وَكَٱلشِّبْلِ ٱلْكَامِنِ فِي عِرِّيسِهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
They laid wait for me as a lion ready for prey, and like a lion's whelp dwelling in secret [places].
قُمْ يَارَبُّ. تَقَدَّمْهُ. اِصْرَعْهُ. نَجِّ نَفْسِي مِنَ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ بِسَيْفِكَ، | ١٣ 13 |
Arise, O Lord, prevent them, and cast them down: deliver my soul from the ungodly: [draw] your sword,
مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ بِيَدِكَ يَارَبُّ، مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلدُّنْيَا. نَصِيبُهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِمْ. بِذَخَائِرِكَ تَمْلَأُ بُطُونَهُمْ. يَشْبَعُونَ أَوْلَادًا وَيَتْرُكُونَ فُضَالَتَهُمْ لِأَطْفَالِهِمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
because of the enemies of your hand: O Lord, destroy them from the earth; scatter them in their life, though their belly has been filled with your hidden [treasures]: they have been satisfied with uncleanness, and have left the remnant [of their possessions] to their babes.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَبِالْبِرِّ أَنْظُرُ وَجْهَكَ. أَشْبَعُ إِذَا ٱسْتَيْقَظْتُ بِشَبَهِكَ. | ١٥ 15 |
But I shall appear in righteousness before your face: I shall be satisfied when your glory appears.
