1 أ نْصِفْنِي يا اللهُ لأنِّي عِشْتُ بِاسْتِقامَةٍ، وَلأنِّي عَلَى اللهِ أتَّكَلْتُ بِلا تَرَدُّدٍ.

Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.

2 ا متَحِنِّي يا اللهُ ، جَرِّبْنِي. افْحَصْ عَقلِي وَقَلْبِي.

Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

3 م َحَبَّتُكَ أمامَ عَينَيَّ دائِماً. وَأنا أسِيرُ حَسْبَ أمانَتِكَ.

For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

4 ل ا أُعاشِرُ الأدنِياءَ. وَالمُنافِقُونَ لا أُخالِطُهُمْ.

I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

5 أ ُبغِضُ رِفقَةَ أُناسِ السُّوءِ. وَلا أُرافِقُ الأشْرارَ.

I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

6 أ غسِلُ يَدَيَّ لِأُظهِرَ بَراءَتِي، لِكَي أطُوفَ حَولَ مَذبَحِكَ، يا اللهُ.

I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:

7 ل ِكَي أُسَمِّعَ النّاسَ تَرانِيمَ تَسبِيحِكَ، وَأُحَدِّثَ بِأعمالِكَ العَجِيبَةِ.

That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

8 أ ُحِبُّ يا اللهُ أنْ أكُونَ فِي بَيتِكَ حَيثُ تَسكُنُ، فِي الخَيمَةِ حَيثُ مَجدُكَ.

Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

9 ل ا تُهلِكنِي مَعَ الخُطاةِ يا اللهُ، وَلا تَأْخُذْ حَياتِي مَعَ القَتَلَةِ.

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10 ا لَّذِينَ يُدَبِّرُونَ مَكائِدَ لِلآخَرِينَ، وَيَقبَلُونَ الرِّشوَةَ دائِماً.

In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11 أ مّا أنا، فَأحيا بِالنَّقاءِ. فَارحَمْنِي وَخَلِّصْنِي.

But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

12 ع َلَى سَهلٍ أقِفُ ثابِتاً وَفِي الجَماعَةِ أقِفُ وَأُبارِكُ اللهَ.

My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
