1 ل َيْتَ اللهَ يَستَجِيبُ لَكَ فِي ضِيقِكَ. لَيْتَ اسْمَ إلَهِ يَعقُوبَ يَرْفَعُكَ وَيَحْمِيكَ.

May Yahweh answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,

2 ل َيْتَهُ يُرسِلُ لَكَ عَوْناً مِنْ هَيكَلِ قُدْسِهِ. لَيْتَهُ يَسنِدُكَ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ.

send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,

3 ل َيْتَهُ يَتَذَكَّرُ كُلَّ تَقدِماتِكَ مِنَ الدَّقِيقِ، وَيَقبَلُ ذَبِيحَتَكَ. سِلاهْ

remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah.

4 ل َيتَهُ يُعطِيكَ مُشْتَهَياتِ قَلْبِكَ، لَيتَهُ يُنجِحُ كُلَّ خُطَطِكَ.

May He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

5 ل َيتَنا نَفرَحُ بِنَصْرِكَ، وَنَبْتَهِجُ بِاسْمِ إلَهِنا. وَلَيتَ اللهَ يُحَقِّقُ كُلَّ طِلْباتِكَ.

We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Yahweh grant all your requests.

6 ع َرَفْتُ الآنَ أنَّ اللهَ سَيُنَجِّي مَلِكَهُ المَمسُوحَ. سَيَستَجِيبُ مِنْ سَماواتِهِ المُقَدَّسَةِ، وَبِيَمِينِهِ سَيُحرِزُ نَصْراً عَظِيماً.

Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

7 ب َعضُهُمْ يَفتَخِرُ بِمَركَباتِهِ، وَبَعضُهُمْ بِخَيلِهِ. أمّا نَحنُ فَنَذْكُرُ اسْمَ إلَهِنا وَنَفْتَخِرُ بِهِ.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh our God.

8 ه َؤُلاءِ يَسقُطُونَ وَيُخضَعُونَ. أمّا نَحنُ فَنَصْمِدُ وَنَغلِبُ.

They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

9 ي َستِجِيبُ لَنا اللهُ حِينَ نَدعُوهُ، وَسَيَنصُرُ المَلِكَ.

Save, Yahweh! Let the King answer us when we call!
