Psalms 19

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.

1 السَّمَاوَاتُ تُحَدِّثُ بِمَجْدِ اللهِ، وَالْفَلَكُ يُخْبِرُ بِعَمَلِ يَدَيْهِ

2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.

2 بِذَلِكَ تَتَحَادَثُ الأَيَّامُ أَبْلَغَ حَدِيثٍ، وَتَتَخَاطَبُ بِهِ اللَّيَالِي.

3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,

3 لَا يَصْدُرُ عَنْهَا كَلامٌ، لَكِنَّ صَوْتَهَا يُسمَعُ وَاضِحاً.

4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.

4 انْطَلَقَ صَوْتُهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا وَكَلامُهُمْ إِلَى أَقَاصِي الْعَالَمِ. جَعَلَ لِلشَّمْسِ مَسْكَناً فِيهَا،

5 Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,

5 وَهِيَ مِثْلُ الْعَرِيسِ الْخَارِجِ مِنْ مُخْدَعِهِ، كَالْعَدَّاءِ الْمُبْتَهِجِ لِلسِّبَاقِ فِي الطَّرِيقِ.

6 it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.

6 تَنْطَلِقُ مِنْ أَقْصَى السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَتَدُورُ إِلَى أَقَاصِيهَا، وَلَا شَيْءَ يَحْتَجِبُ مِنْ حَرِّهَا.

7 The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.

7 شَرِيعَةُ الرَّبِّ كَامِلَةٌ تُنْعِشُ النَّفْسَ. شَهَادَةُ الرَّبِّ صَادِقَةٌ تَجْعَلُ الْجَاهِلَ حَكِيماً.

8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

8 وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ مُسْتَقِيمَةٌ تُفَرِّحُ الْقَلْبَ. أَمْرُ الرَّبِّ نَقِيٌّ يُنِيرُ الْعَيْنَيْنِ.

9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.

9 مَخَافَةُ الرَّبِّ طَاهِرَةٌ ثَابِتَةٌ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَأَحْكَامُ الرَّبِّ حَقٌّ وَعَادِلَةٌ كُلُّهَا.

10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.

10 إِنَّهَا أَشْهَى مِنَ الذَّهَبِ النَّقِيِّ، وَهِيَ أَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ بَلِ الْقَطْرِ السَّائِلِ مِنْ أَقْرَاصِ الشَّهْدِ.

11 By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.

11 عَبْدُكَ يَهْتَدِي بِها، وَفِي صَوْنِهَا ثَوَابٌ عَظِيمٌ.

12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.

12 مَنْ يَتَنَبَّهُ إِلَى سَهَوَاتِهِ؟ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا الْخَفِيَّةِ خَلِّصْنِي،

13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.

13 وَمِنَ الْكَبَائِرِ أَيْضاً احْفَظْ عَبْدَكَ، وَلَا تَدَعْهَا تَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَيَّ. عِنْدَئِذٍ أَكُونُ كَامِلاً وَأَتَبَرَّأُ مِنْ ذَنْبٍ عَظِيمٍ.

14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

14 لِتَكُنْ أَقْوَالُ فَمِي وَخَوَاطِرُ قَلْبِي مَقْبُولَةً لَدَيْكَ يَا رَبُّ، يَا صَخْرَتِي وَفَادِيَّ.
