1 ا نْتَظَرْتُ اللهَ بِصَبْرٍ. فَالتَفَتَ إلَيَّ وَسَمِعَ صُراخِي.

I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry.

2 م ِنَ المَوْتِ نَشَلَنِي. أخرَجَنِي مِنَ الوَحلِ. عَلَى أرْضٍ ثابِتَةٍ وَضَعَ قَدَمَيَّ، وَثَبَّتَ خَطَواتِي.

He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm.

3 و َضَعَ تَرنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً عَلَى شَفَتَيَّ، تَرنِيمَةَ شُكْرٍ لإلَهِنا. كَثِيرُونَ سَيَرَوْنَ أعْمالَهُ، فَيَهابُونَ اللهِ وَيَتَّكِلُونَ عَلَيهِ.

He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; Many will see and fear And will trust in the Lord.

4 ه َنِيئاً لِمَنْ وَضَعَ ثِقَتَهُ فِي اللهِ ، وَلا يَلجَأُ إلَى الشَّياطِينِ وَالآلِهَةِ المُزَيَّفَةِ.

How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust, And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

5 ي ا إلَهِي ، أنتَ صَنَعْتَ عَجائِبَ كَثِيرَةً. رائِعَةٌ هِيَ خُطَطُكَ لَنا، وَلَيسَ مَنْ يَقدِرُ أنْ يَذكُرَها كُلَّها. سَأُخبِرُ بِها مَرَّةً بَعدَ مَرَّةٍ، مَعَ أنَّها لا تُحصَى.

Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.

6 أ نتَ لا تُسَرُّ بِالذَّبائِحِ وَالقَرابِينِ، بَلْ فَتَحْتُ أُذُنَيَّ لِصَوتِكَ. لَمْ تَطلُبْ ذَبائِحَ صاعِدَةً وَذَبائِحَ خَطِيَّةٍ.

Sacrifice and meal offering You have not desired; My ears You have opened; Burnt offering and sin offering You have not required.

7 ل ِهَذا قُلْتُ: «ها قَدْ جِئْتُ. مَكتُوبٌ هَذا عَنِّي فِي الكِتابِ.

Then I said, “Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it is written of me.

8 ر َغبَتِي أنْ أفعَلَ مَشِيئَتَكَ يا إلَهِي، وَشَرِيعَتُكَ هِيَ فِي قَلْبِي.»

I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your Law is within my heart.”

9 ب َشَّرْتُ بِأعمالِكَ الحَسَنَةِ بَينَ الجَماعَةِ الكَبِيرَةِ. وَأنتَ، يا اللهُ ، تَعلَمُ أنَّنِي لا أُقفِلُ شَفَتَيَّ.

I have proclaimed glad tidings of righteousness in the great congregation; Behold, I will not restrain my lips, O Lord, You know.

10 ل َمْ أكتِمْ فِي قَلبِي أعمالَكَ الصّالِحَةَ. بَلْ جاهَرْتُ بِإخلاصِكَ وَخَلاصِكَ. عَنِ الجَماعَةِ الكَبِيرَةِ لَمْ أُخفِ شَيئاً مِنْ صِدْقِ مَحَبَّتِكَ وَأمانَتِكَ.

I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have spoken of Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth from the great congregation.

11 ف َلا تَمنَعْ، يا اللهُ ، عَنِّي رَحمَتِكَ. وَبِصِدْقِ مَحَبَّتِكَ وَأمانَتِكَ احمِنِي دَوْماً.

You, O Lord, will not withhold Your compassion from me; Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me.

12 ل ِأنَّ أشْراراً بِلا عَدَدٍ قَدْ حاصَرُونِي. وَخَطايايَ أمسَكَتْ بِي وَلا أرَى مَهرَباً. خَطايايَ أكثَرُ مِنْ شَعْرِ رَأْسِي. وَشَجاعَتِي فارَقَتْنِي.

For evils beyond number have surrounded me; My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to see; They are more numerous than the hairs of my head, And my heart has failed me.

13 أ رْجُوكَ أنقِذْنِي يا اللهُ! يا اللهُ ، أسرِعْ إلَى مَعُونَتِي!

Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; Make haste, O Lord, to help me.

14 ل َيتَ السّاعِينَ إلَى مَوْتِي يَخزَوْنَ وَيُهزَمُونَ! لَيتَ مَنْ يُرِيدُونَ أذِيَّتِي يَسقُطُونَ وَيَندَحِرُونَ!

Let those be ashamed and humiliated together Who seek my life to destroy it; Let those be turned back and dishonored Who delight in my hurt.

15 ل َيتَ المُتَهَكِّمِينَ عَلَيَّ يَخرَسُونَ فِي ذُلِّهِمْ وَخِزْيِهِمْ.

Let those be appalled because of their shame Who say to me, “Aha, aha!”

16 و َلْيَبتَهِجْ وَيَفْرَحْ كُلُّ مَنْ يَطلُبُكَ. لِيَقُلْ مُحِبُّو خَلاصِكَ دائِماً: «عَظِيمٌ هُوَ اللهُ!»

Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; Let those who love Your salvation say continually, “The Lord be magnified!”

17 ل َكِنِ انظُرْ إلَيَّ يا رَبِّي، لأنِّي أنا مِسكِينٌ وَبائِسٌ. إلَهِي، عَوْنِي وَخَلاصِي أنتَ. فَلا تَتَأخَّرْ.

Since I am afflicted and needy, Let the Lord be mindful of me. You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God.
