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

O Lord, stand by me for I have lived my life without blame. I have trusted in the Lord without changing.

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

Test me and try me, O Lord. Test my mind and my heart.

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

For Your loving-kindness is always in front of my eyes. And I have walked in Your truth.

4 ل ا أُعاشِرُ الأدنِياءَ. وَالمُنافِقُونَ لا أُخالِطُهُمْ.

I do not sit with men who lie about the truth. I would not be seen with those who pretend to be someone they are not.

5 أ ُبغِضُ رِفقَةَ أُناسِ السُّوءِ. وَلا أُرافِقُ الأشْرارَ.

I hate the meeting of sinners, and will not sit with the sinful.

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

I will wash my hands of any guilt. And I will go around Your altar, O Lord.

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

I will speak with the voice of thanks, and tell of all Your great works.

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

O Lord, I love the house where You live, the place where Your shining-greatness lives.

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

Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men who kill other people.

10 ا لَّذِينَ يُدَبِّرُونَ مَكائِدَ لِلآخَرِينَ، وَيَقبَلُونَ الرِّشوَةَ دائِماً.

Sinful plans are in their hands. And their right hand is full of pay for hurting others.

11 أ مّا أنا، فَأحيا بِالنَّقاءِ. فَارحَمْنِي وَخَلِّصْنِي.

But as for me, I will live a life without blame. Make me free, and show me loving-kindness.

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

My foot stands on a good place. I will give honor to the Lord, in the meeting of worship.
