Psalms 71

In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.

بِكَ يَا رَبُّ احْتَمَيْتُ، فَلاَ أَخْزَى إِلَى الدَّهْرِ.

Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

بِعَدْلِكَ نَجِّنِي وَأَنْقِذْنِي. أَمِلْ إِلَيَّ أُذْنَكَ وَخَلِّصْنِي.

Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.

كُنْ لِي صَخْرَةَ مَلْجَأٍ أَدْخُلُهُ دَائِمًا. أَمَرْتَ بِخَلاَصِي لأَنَّكَ صَخْرَتِي وَحِصْنِي.

Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

يَا إِلهِي، نَجِّنِي مِنْ يَدِ الشِّرِّيرِ، مِنْ كَفِّ فَاعِلِ الشَّرِّ وَالظَّالِمِ.

For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.

لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَجَائِي يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ، مُتَّكَلِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ.

By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee.

عَلَيْكَ اسْتَنَدْتُ مِنَ الْبَطْنِ، وَأَنْتَ مُخْرِجِي مِنْ أَحْشَاءِ أُمِّي. بِكَ تَسْبِيحِي دَائِمًا.

I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

صِرْتُ كَآيَةٍ لِكَثِيرِينَ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَمَلْجَإِي الْقَوِيُّ.

Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.

يَمْتَلِئُ فَمِي مِنْ تَسْبِيحِكَ، الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ مِنْ مَجْدِكَ.

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

لاَ تَرْفُضْنِي فِي زَمَنِ الشَّيْخُوخَةِ. لاَ تَتْرُكْنِي عِنْدَ فَنَاءِ قُوَّتِي.

For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,

لأَنَّ أَعْدَائِي تَقَاوَلُوا عَلَيَّ، وَالَّذِينَ يَرْصُدُونَ نَفْسِي تَآمَرُوا مَعًا.

Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.

قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ تَرَكَهُ. الْحَقُوهُ وَأَمْسِكُوهُ لأَنَّهُ لاَ مُنْقِذَ لَهُ».

O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.

يَا اَللهُ، لاَ تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي. يَا إِلهِي، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ.

Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

لِيَخْزَ وَيَفْنَ مُخَاصِمُو نَفْسِي. لِيَلْبَسِ الْعَارَ وَالْخَجَلَ الْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا.

But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.

أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَرْجُو دَائِمًا، وَأَزِيدُ عَلَى كُلِّ تَسْبِيحِكَ.

My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

فَمِي يُحَدِّثُ بِعَدْلِكَ، الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ بِخَلاَصِكَ، لأَنِّي لاَ أَعْرِفُ لَهَا أَعْدَادًا.

I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

آتِي بِجَبَرُوتِ السَّيِّدِ الرَّبِّ. أَذْكُرُ بِرَّكَ وَحْدَكَ.

O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.

اَلَّلهُمَّ، قَدْ عَلَّمْتَنِي مُنْذُ صِبَايَ، وَإِلَى الآنَ أُخْبِرُ بِعَجَائِبِكَ.

Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.

وَأَيْضًا إِلَى الشَّيْخُوخَةِ وَالشَّيْبِيَا اَللهُ لاَ تَتْرُكْنِي، حَتَّى أُخْبِرَ بِذِرَاعِكَ الْجِيلَ الْمُقْبِلَ، وَبِقُوَّتِكَ كُلَّ آتٍ.

Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!

وَبِرُّكَ إِلَى الْعَلْيَاءِ يَا اَللهُ، الَّذِي صَنَعْتَ الْعَظَائِمَ. يَا اَللهُ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟

Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

أَنْتَ الَّذِي أَرَيْتَنَا ضِيقَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً وَرَدِيئَةً، تَعُودُ فَتُحْيِينَا، وَمِنْ أَعْمَاقِ الأَرْضِ تَعُودُ فَتُصْعِدُنَا.

Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

تَزِيدُ عَظَمَتِي وَتَرْجعُ فَتُعَزِّينِي.

I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.

فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَحْمَدُكَ بِرَبَابٍ، حَقَّكَ يَا إِلهِي. أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ بِالْعُودِ يَا قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.

تَبْتَهِجُ شَفَتَايَ إِذْ أُرَنِّمُ لَكَ، وَنَفْسِي الَّتِي فَدَيْتَهَا.

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.

وَلِسَانِي أَيْضًا الْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يَلْهَجُ بِبِرِّكَ. لأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَزِيَ، لأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَجِلَ الْمُلْتَمِسُونَ لِي شَرًّا.
