Psalms 38

Berean Standard Bible tier 2New Arabic Version (Book of Life) tier 3
BSB

1 A Psalm of David, for remembrance. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.

NAV

1 يَا رَبُّ لَا تُوَبِّخْنِي بِغَضَبِكَ، وَلَا تُؤَدِّبْنِي بِسَخَطِكَ،

BSB

2 For Your arrows have pierced me deeply, and Your hand has pressed down on me.

NAV

2 لأَنَّ سِهَامَكَ قَدْ أَصَابَتْنِي وَضَرَبَاتِكَ قَدْ ثَقُلَتْ عَلَيَّ.

BSB

3 There is no soundness in my body because of Your anger; there is no rest in my bones because of my sin.

NAV

3 اعْتَلَّ جَسَدِي لِفَرْطِ غَضَبِكَ عَلَيَّ. وَبَلِيَتْ عِظَامِي بِسَبَبِ خَطِيئَتِي.

BSB

4 For my iniquities have overwhelmed me; they are a burden too heavy to bear.

NAV

4 طَمَتْ آثَامِي فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. وَصَارَتْ كَعِبْءٍ ثَقِيلٍ لَا طَاقَةَ لِي عَلَى حَمْلِهِ.

BSB

5 My wounds are foul and festering because of my sinful folly.

NAV

5 أَنْتَنَتْ جِرَاحِي وَسَالَ صَدِيدُهَا بِسَبَبِ جَهَالَتِي.

BSB

6 I am bent and brought low; all day long I go about mourning.

NAV

6 انْحَنَيْتُ وَالْتَوَيْتُ. وَدَامَ نَحِيبِي طُولَ النَّهَارِ.

BSB

7 For my loins are full of burning pain, and no soundness remains in my body.

NAV

7 امْتلأَ دَاخِلِي بِأَلَمٍ حَارِقٍ، فَلَا صِحَّةَ فِي جَسَدِي.

BSB

8 I am numb and badly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.

NAV

8 أَنَا وَاهِنٌ وَمَسْحُوقٌ إِلَى الْغَايَةِ، وَأَئِنُّ مِنْ أَوْجَاعِ قَلْبِي الدَّفِينَةِ.

BSB

9 O Lord, my every desire is before You; my groaning is not hidden from You.

NAV

9 أَمَامَكَ يَا رَبُّ كُلُّ تَأَوُّهِي، وَتَنَهُّدِي مَكْشُوفٌ لَدَيْكَ.

BSB

10 My heart pounds, my strength fails, and even the light of my eyes has faded.

NAV

10 خَفَقَ قَلْبِي وَفَارَقَتْنِي قُوَّتِي، وَاضْمَحَلَّ فِيَّ نُورُ عَيْنَيَّ.

BSB

11 My beloved and friends shun my disease, and my kinsmen stand at a distance.

NAV

11 وَقَفَ أَحِبَّائِي وَأَصْحَابِي مُسْتَنْكِفِينَ مِنِّي بِسَبَبِ مُصِيبَتِي، وَتَنَحَّى أَقَارِبِي عَنِّي.

BSB

12 Those who seek my life lay snares; those who wish me harm speak destruction, plotting deceit all day long.

NAV

12 نَصَبَ السَّاعُونَ لِقَتْلِي الْفِخَاخَ، وَطَالِبُو أَذِيَّتِي تَوَعَّدُوا بِدَمَارِي، وَتَآمَرُوا طُولَ النَّهَارِ لِلإِيقَاعِ بِي.

BSB

13 But like a deaf man, I do not hear; and like a mute man, I do not open my mouth.

NAV

13 أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ كُنْتُ كَأَصَمَّ، لَا يَسْمَعُ، وَكَأَخْرَسَ لَا يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ.

BSB

14 I am like a man who cannot hear, whose mouth offers no reply.

NAV

14 كُنْتُ كَمَنْ لَا يَسْمَعُ، وَكَمَنْ لَيْسَ فِي فَمِهِ حُجَّةٌ.

BSB

15 I wait for You, O LORD; You will answer, O Lord my God.

NAV

15 لأَنِّي قَدْ وَضَعْتُ فِيكَ رَجَائِي، وَأَنْتَ تَسْتَجِيبُنِي يَا رَبُّ يَا إِلَهِي.

BSB

16 For I said, “Let them not gloat over me—those who taunt me when my foot slips.”

NAV

16 قُلْتُ: «لَا تَدَعْهُمْ يَشْمَتُونَ بِي فَحَالَمَا زَلَّتْ قَدَمِي تَغَطْرَسُوا عَلَيَّ»

BSB

17 For I am ready to fall, and my pain is ever with me.

NAV

17 لأَنِّي أَكَادُ أَتَعَثَّرُ، وَوَجَعِي دَائِماً أَمَامَ نَاظِرِي.

BSB

18 Yes, I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.

NAV

18 أَعْتَرِفُ جَهْراً بِإِثْمِي، وأَحْزَنُ مِنْ أَجْلِ خَطِيئَتِي.

BSB

19 Many are my enemies without cause, and many hate me without reason.

NAV

19 أَمَّا أَعْدَائِي فَيَفِيضُونَ حَيَوِيَّةً. تَجَبَّرُوا وَكَثُرَ الَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي ظُلْماً.

BSB

20 Those who repay my good with evil attack me for pursuing the good.

NAV

20 وَالَّذِينَ يُجَازُونَ الْخَيْرَ بِالشَّرِّ يُقَاوِمُونَنِي لأَنِّي أَتْبَعُ الصَّلاحَ.

BSB

21 Do not forsake me, O LORD; be not far from me, O my God.

NAV

21 لَا تَنْبِذْنِي يَا رَبُّ. يَا إِلَهِي لَا تَبْعُدْ عَنِّي.

BSB

22 Come quickly to help me, O Lord my Savior.

NAV

22 أَسْرِعْ لِنَجْدَتِي يَا رَبُّ يَا مُخَلِّصِي.
