اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 20

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِيَسْتَجِبْ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضِّيقِ. لِيَرْفَعْكَ ٱسْمُ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ.

“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” May the Lord answer thee on the day of distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee;

٢ 2 لِيُرْسِلْ لَكَ عَوْنًا مِنْ قُدْسِهِ، وَمِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ لِيَعْضُدْكَ.

May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and support thee from Zion;

٣ 3 لِيَذْكُرْ كُلَّ تَقْدِمَاتِكَ، وَيَسْتَسْمِنْ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ. سِلَاهْ.

May he remember all thy meat-offerings, and accept in favor thy burnt-sacrifice. (Selah)

٤ 4 لِيُعْطِكَ حَسَبَ قَلْبِكَ، وَيُتَمِّمْ كُلَّ رَأْيِكَ.

May he grant thee according to thy own heart, and fulfill all thy resolves.

٥ 5 نَتَرَنَّمُ بِخَلَاصِكَ، وَبِٱسْمِ إِلَهِنَا نَرْفَعُ رَايَتَنَا. لِيُكَمِّلِ ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ سُؤْلِكَ.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we upraise our banners: may the Lord fulfill all thy petitions.

٦ 6 اَلْآنَ عَرَفْتُ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُخَلِّصُ مَسِيحِهِ، يَسْتَجِيبُهُ مِنْ سَمَاءِ قُدْسِهِ، بِجَبَرُوتِ خَلَاصِ يَمِينِهِ.

Now I know that the Lord saveth his anointed: he will answer him from his holy heavens, with the saving strength of his right hand.

٧ 7 هَؤُلَاءِ بِٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَهَؤُلَاءِ بِٱلْخَيْلِ، أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا نَذْكُرُ.

Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses; but we will invoke the name of the Lord our God.

٨ 8 هُمْ جَثَوْا وَسَقَطُوا، أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَقُمْنَا وَٱنْتَصَبْنَا.

They are prostrate and fallen; but we are risen up and stand erect.

٩ 9 يَا رَبُّ خَلِّصْ! لِيَسْتَجِبْ لَنَا ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي يَوْمِ دُعَائِنَا!

O Lord, save [us]: may the king answer us on the day when we call [on him].
