BSB

1 For the choirmaster. According to Sheminith. A Psalm of David. Help, O LORD, for the godly are no more; the faithful have vanished from among men.

NAV

1 أَغِثْ يَا رَبُّ لأَنَّهُ قَدِ انْقَرَضَ التَّقِيُّ، وَاخْتَفَى الأُمَنَاءُ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي الْبَشَرِ.

BSB

2 They lie to one another; they speak with flattering lips and a double heart.

NAV

2 كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يُخَاطِبُ صَاحِبَهُ بِالْبَاطِلِ: بِشِفَاهٍ مَلِقَةٍ وَقُلُوبٍ مُنَافِقَةٍ يَتَحَادَثُونَ.

BSB

3 May the LORD cut off all flattering lips and every boastful tongue.

NAV

3 يَقْطَعُ الرَّبُّ كُلَّ الشِّفَاهِ الْمَلِقَةِ، وَكُلَّ لِسَانٍ مُتَبَجِّحٍ.

BSB

4 They say, “With our tongues we will prevail. We own our lips—who can be our master?”

NAV

4 الَّذِينَ قَالُوا: أَلْسِنَتُنَا لَنَا وَبِهَا نَسُودُ. فَمَنْ يَتَحَكَّمُ فِينَا؟

BSB

5 “For the cause of the oppressed and for the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,” says the LORD. “I will bring safety to him who yearns.”

NAV

5 وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَقُولُ: إِنْقَاذاً لِلْمَسَاكِينِ، وَاسْتِجَابَةً لِتَنَهُّدَاتِ الْمَظْلُومِينَ، أَهُبُّ الآنَ لأُفَرِّجَ كُرْبَةَ الْمُتَضَايِقِينَ.

BSB

6 The words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace, like gold purified sevenfold.

NAV

6 أَقْوَالُ الرَّبِّ خَالِصَةٌ لَا شَائِبَةَ فِيهَا، كالْفِضَّةِ الْمُنَقَّاةِ الْمُصَفَّاةِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي بَوتَقَةٍ مُحَمَّاةٍ.

BSB

7 You, O LORD, will keep us; You will forever guard us from this generation.

NAV

7 أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ تَحْفَظُ الأَبْرَارَ، وَتَقِيهِمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ مِنْ جِيلِ الأَشْرَارِ.

BSB

8 The wicked wander freely, and vileness is exalted among men.

NAV

8 يَتَجَوَّلُ الأَشْرَارُ أَحْرَاراً فِي كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ، عِنْدَمَا يَتَبَوَّأُ أَرَاذِلُ النَّاسِ الْمَقَامَاتِ الرَّفِيعَةَ.
