< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 64 >
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ اِسْتَمِعْ يَا ٱللهُ صَوْتِي فِي شَكْوَايَ. مِنْ خَوْفِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ ٱحْفَظْ حَيَاتِي. | ١ 1 |
To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. O God, let the voice of my grief come to your ear: keep my life from the fear of those who are against me.
ٱسْتُرْنِي مِنْ مُؤَامَرَةِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، مِنْ جُمْهُورِ فَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ، | ٢ 2 |
Keep me safe from the secret purpose of wrongdoers; from the band of the workers of evil;
ٱلَّذِينَ صَقَلُوا أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ كَٱلسَّيْفِ. فَوَّقُوا سَهْمَهُمْ كَلَامًا مُرًّا، | ٣ 3 |
Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;
لِيَرْمُوا ٱلْكَامِلَ فِي ٱلْمُخْتَفَى بَغْتَةً. يَرْمُونَهُ وَلَا يَخْشَوْنَ. | ٤ 4 |
So that in secret they may let loose their arrows at the upright, suddenly and unseen.
يُشَدِّدُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِأَمْرٍ رَدِيءٍ. يَتَحَادَثُونَ بِطَمْرِ فِخَاخٍ. قَالُوا: «مَنْ يَرَاهُمْ؟». | ٥ 5 |
They make themselves strong in an evil purpose; they make holes for secret nets; they say, Who will see it,
يَخْتَرِعُونَ إِثْمًا، تَمَّمُوا ٱخْتِرَاعًا مُحْكَمًا. وَدَاخِلُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ وَقَلْبُهُ عَمِيقٌ. | ٦ 6 |
Or make discovery of our secret purpose? The design is framed with care; and the inner thought of a man, and his heart, is deep.
فَيَرْمِيهِمِ ٱللهُ بِسَهْمٍ. بَغْتَةً كَانَتْ ضَرْبَتُهُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
But God sends out an arrow against them; suddenly they are wounded.
وَيُوقِعُونَ أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ. يُنْغِضُ ٱلرَّأْسَ كُلُّ مَنْ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
The evil of their tongues is the cause of their fall; all those who see them are shaking their heads at them.
وَيَخْشَى كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ، وَيُخْبِرُ بِفِعْلِ ٱللهِ، وَبِعَمَلِهِ يَفْطَنُونَ. | ٩ 9 |
And in fear men make public the works of God; and giving thought to his acts they get wisdom.
يَفْرَحُ ٱلصِّدِّيقُ بِٱلرَّبِّ وَيَحْتَمِي بِهِ، وَيَبْتَهِجُ كُلُّ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِي ٱلْقُلُوبِ. | ١٠ 10 |
The upright will be glad in the Lord and have hope in him; and all the lovers of righteousness will give him glory.
