Psalms 38

O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

يَا رَبُّ، لاَ تُوَبِّخْنِي بِسَخَطِكَ، وَلاَ تُؤَدِّبْنِي بِغَيْظِكَ،

For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

لأَنَّ سِهَامَكَ قَدِ انْتَشَبَتْ فِيَّ، وَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُكَ.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

لَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ غَضَبِكَ. لَيْسَتْ فِي عِظَامِي سَلاَمَةٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ خَطِيَّتِي.

For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

لأَنَّ آثامِي قَدْ طَمَتْ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. كَحِمْل ثَقِيل أَثْقَلَ مِمَّا أَحْتَمِلُ.

My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

قَدْ أَنْتَنَتْ، قَاحَتْ حُبُرُ ضَرْبِي مِنْ جِهَةِ حَمَاقَتِي.

I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

لَوِيتُ. انْحَنَيْتُ إِلَى الْغَايَةِ. الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ ذَهَبْتُ حَزِينًا.

For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

لأَنَّ خَاصِرَتَيَّ قَدِ امْتَلأَتَا احْتِرَاقًا، وَلَيْسَتْ فِي جَسَدِي صِحَّةٌ.

I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

خَدِرْتُ وَانْسَحَقْتُ إِلَى الْغَايَةِ. كُنْتُ أَئِنُّ مِنْ زَفِيرِ قَلْبِي.

Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

يَا رَبُّ، أَمَامَكَ كُلُّ تَأَوُّهِي، وَتَنَهُّدِي لَيْسَ بِمَسْتُورٍ عَنْكَ.

My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

قَلْبِي خَافِقٌ. قُوَّتِي فَارَقَتْنِي، وَنُورُ عَيْنِي أَيْضًا لَيْسَ مَعِي.

My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

أَحِبَّائِي وَأَصْحَابِي يَقِفُونَ تُجَاهَ ضَرْبَتِي، وَأَقَارِبِي وَقَفُوا بَعِيدًا.

They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

وَطَالِبُو نَفْسِي نَصَبُوا شَرَكًا، وَالْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِيَ الشَّرَّ تَكَلَّمُوا بِالْمَفَاسِدِ، وَالْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُونَ بِالْغِشِّ.

But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَكَأَصَمَّ لاَ أَسْمَعُ. وَكَأَبْكَمَ لاَ يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ.

Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

وَأَكُونُ مِثْلَ إِنْسَانٍلاَ يَسْمَعُ، وَلَيْسَ فِي فَمِهِ حُجَّةٌ.

For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

لأَنِّي لَكَ يَا رَبُّ صَبَرْتُ، أَنْتَ تَسْتَجِيبُ يَا رَبُّ إِلهِي.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

لأَنِّي قُلْتُ: «لِئَلاَّ يَشْمَتُوا بِي». عِنْدَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي تَعَظَّمُوا عَلَيَّ.

For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

لأَنِّي مُوشِكٌ أَنْ أَظْلَعَ، وَوَجَعِي مُقَابِلِي دَائِمًا.

For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

لأَنَّنِي أُخْبِرُ بِإِثْمِي، وَأَغْتَمُّ مِنْ خَطِيَّتِي.

But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

وَأَمَّا أَعْدَائِي فَأَحْيَاءٌ. عَظُمُوا. وَالَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي ظُلْمًا كَثُرُوا.

They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.

وَالْمُجَازُونَ عَنِ الْخَيْرِ بِشَرّ، يُقَاوِمُونَنِي لأَجْلِ اتِّبَاعِي الصَّلاَحَ.

Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

لاَ تَتْرُكْنِي يَا رَبُّ. يَا إِلهِي، لاَ تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي.

Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

أَسْرِعْ إِلَى مَعُونَتِي يَا رَبُّ يَا خَلاَصِي.
