اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 39

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. لِيَدُوثُونَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ قُلْتُ: «أَتَحَفَّظُ لِسَبِيلِي مِنَ ٱلْخَطَإِ بِلِسَانِي. أَحْفَظُ لِفَمِي كِمَامَةً فِيمَا ٱلشِّرِّيرُ مُقَابِلِي».

To the choirmaster (for Jeduthun *QK) a psalm of David. I said I will guard ways my from sinning with tongue my I will keep to mouth my a muzzle while still [the] wicked [is] to before me.

٢ 2 صَمَتُّ صَمْتًا، سَكَتُّ عَنِ ٱلْخَيْرِ، فَتَحَرَّكَ وَجَعِي.

I was dumb silence I was silent from good and pain my it was stirred up.

٣ 3 حَمِيَ قَلْبِي فِي جَوْفِي. عِنْدَ لَهَجِي ٱشْتَعَلَتِ ٱلنَّارُ. تَكَلَّمْتُ بِلِسَانِي:

It became hot heart my - in inner being my in sighing my it burned fire I spoke with tongue my.

٤ 4 «عَرِّفْنِي يَارَبُّ نِهَايَتِي وَمِقْدَارَ أَيَّامِي كَمْ هِيَ، فَأَعْلَمَ كَيْفَ أَنَا زَائِلٌ.

Make known to me O Yahweh - end my and [the] measure of days my what? [is] it let me know how! fleeting [am] I.

٥ 5 هُوَذَا جَعَلْتَ أَيَّامِي أَشْبَارًا، وَعُمْرِي كَلَا شَيْءَ قُدَّامَكَ. إِنَّمَا نَفْخَةً كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ قَدْ جُعِلَ. سِلَاهْ.

Here! handbreadths - you have made days my and lifespan my [is] like nothing before you [is] only all vanity all humankind [which] stands (Selah)

٦ 6 إِنَّمَا كَخَيَالٍ يَتَمَشَّى ٱلْإِنْسَانُ. إِنَّمَا بَاطِلًا يَضِجُّونَ. يَذْخَرُ ذَخَائِرَ وَلَا يَدْرِي مَنْ يَضُمُّهَا.

Only an image - he goes about a person only vanity people are in turmoil! he heaps up and not he knows who? [will be] gathering them.

٧ 7 «وَٱلْآنَ، مَاذَا ٱنْتَظَرْتُ يَارَبُّ؟ رَجَائِي فِيكَ هُوَ.

And now what? do I wait for O Lord hope my [is] to you it.

٨ 8 مِنْ كُلِّ مَعَاصِيَّ نَجِّنِي. لَا تَجْعَلْنِي عَارًا عِنْدَ ٱلْجَاهِلِ.

From all transgressions my deliver me a reproach of [the] foolish may not you make me.

٩ 9 صَمَتُّ. لَا أَفْتَحُ فَمِي، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ فَعَلْتَ.

I am dumb not I open mouth my for you you have acted.

١٠ 10 ٱرْفَعْ عَنِّي ضَرْبَكَ. مِنْ مُهَاجَمَةِ يَدِكَ أَنَا قَدْ فَنِيتُ.

Remove from on me plague your from [the] hostility of hand your I I have come to an end.

١١ 11 بِتَأْدِيبَاتٍ إِنْ أَدَّبْتَ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ مِنْ أَجْلِ إِثْمِهِ، أَفْنَيْتَ مِثْلَ ٱلْعُثِّ مُشْتَهَاهُ. إِنَّمَا كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ نَفْخَةٌ. سِلَاهْ.

With rebukes on iniquity - you have disciplined a person and you have melted like moth desired [thing] his [is] only vanity all humankind (Selah)

١٢ 12 اِسْتَمِعْ صَلَاتِي يَارَبُّ، وَٱصْغَ إِلَى صُرَاخِي. لَا تَسْكُتْ عَنْ دُمُوعِي. لِأَنِّي أَنَا غَرِيبٌ عِنْدَكَ. نَزِيلٌ مِثْلُ جَمِيعِ آبَائِي.

Hear! prayer my - O Yahweh and cry for help my - give ear to! to tear[s] my may not you be silent for [am] a sojourner I with you a resident alien like all ancestors my.
