Psalms 40

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; He inclined to me and heard my cry.

1 اِنْتِظَارًا ٱنْتَظَرْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ، فَمَالَ إِلَيَّ وَسَمِعَ صُرَاخِي،

2 He lifted me up from the pit of despair, out of the miry clay; He set my feet upon a rock, and made my footsteps firm.

2 وَأَصْعَدَنِي مِنْ جُبِّ ٱلْهَلَاكِ، مِنْ طِينِ ٱلْحَمْأَةِ، وَأَقَامَ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ رِجْلَيَّ. ثَبَّتَ خُطُوَاتِي،

3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.

3 وَجَعَلَ فِي فَمِي تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً، تَسْبِيحَةً لِإِلَهِنَا. كَثِيرُونَ يَرَوْنَ وَيَخَافُونَ وَيَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ.

4 Blessed is the man who has made the LORD his trust, who has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

4 طُوبَى لِلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبَّ مُتَّكَلَهُ، وَلَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ إِلَى ٱلْغَطَارِيسِ وَٱلْمُنْحَرِفِينَ إِلَى ٱلْكَذِبِ.

5 Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done, and the plans You have for us—none can compare to You—if I proclaim and declare them, they are more than I can count.

5 كَثِيرًا مَا جَعَلْتَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي عَجَائِبَكَ وَأَفْكَارَكَ مِنْ جِهَتِنَا. لَا تُقَوَّمُ لَدَيْكَ. لَأُخْبِرَنَّ وَأَتَكَلَّمَنَّ بِهَا. زَادَتْ عَنْ أَنْ تُعَدَّ.

6 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but my ears You have opened. Burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not require.

6 بِذَبِيحَةٍ وَتَقْدِمَةٍ لَمْ تُسَرَّ. أُذُنَيَّ فَتَحْتَ. مُحْرَقَةً وَذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيَّةٍ لَمْ تَطْلُبْ.

7 Then I said, “Here I am, I have come—it is written about me in the scroll:

7 حِينَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «هَأَنَذَا جِئْتُ. بِدَرْجِ ٱلْكِتَابِ مَكْتُوبٌ عَنِّي:

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

8 أَنْ أَفْعَلَ مَشِيئَتَكَ يَا إِلَهِي سُرِرْتُ، وَشَرِيعَتُكَ فِي وَسَطِ أَحْشَائِي».

9 I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly; behold, I do not seal my lips, as You, O LORD, do know.

9 بَشَّرْتُ بِبِرٍّ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ. هُوَذَا شَفَتَايَ لَمْ أَمْنَعْهُمَا. أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ عَلِمْتَ.

10 I have not covered up Your righteousness in my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and salvation; I have not concealed Your loving devotion and faithfulness from the great assembly.

10 لَمْ أَكْتُمْ عَدْلَكَ فِي وَسَطِ قَلْبِي. تَكَلَّمْتُ بِأَمَانَتِكَ وَخَلَاصِكَ. لَمْ أُخْفِ رَحْمَتَكَ وَحَقَّكَ عَنِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ.

11 O LORD, do not withhold Your mercy from me; Your loving devotion and faithfulness will always guard me.

11 أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ فَلَا تَمْنَعْ رَأْفَتَكَ عَنِّي. تَنْصُرُنِي رَحْمَتُكَ وَحَقُّكَ دَائِمًا.

12 For evils without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart has failed within me.

12 لِأَنَّ شُرُورًا لَا تُحْصَى قَدِ ٱكْتَنَفَتْنِي. حَاقَتْ بِي آثَامِي، وَلَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُبْصِرَ. كَثُرَتْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ شَعْرِ رَأْسِي، وَقَلْبِي قَدْ تَرَكَنِي.

13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; hurry, O LORD, to help me.

13 اِرْتَضِ يَارَبُّ بِأَنْ تُنَجِّيَنِي. يَارَبُّ، إِلَى مَعُونَتِي أَسْرِعْ.

14 May those who seek my life be ashamed and confounded; may those who wish me harm be repelled and humiliated.

14 لِيَخْزَ وَلْيَخْجَلْ مَعًا ٱلَّذِينَ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي لِإِهْلَاكِهَا. لِيَرْتَدَّ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، وَلْيَخْزَ ٱلْمَسْرُورُونَ بِأَذِيَّتِي.

15 May those who say to me, “Aha, aha!” be appalled at their own shame.

15 لِيَسْتَوْحِشْ مِنْ أَجْلِ خِزْيِهِمِ ٱلْقَائِلُونَ لِي: «هَهْ! هَهْ!».

16 May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love Your salvation always say, “The LORD be magnified!”

16 لِيَبْتَهِجْ وَيَفْرَحْ بِكَ جَمِيعُ طَالِبِيكَ مُحِبُّو خَلَاصِكَ: «يَتَعَظَّمُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

17 But I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my helper and deliverer; O my God, do not delay.

17 أَمَّا أَنَا فَمِسْكِينٌ وَبَائِسٌ. ٱلرَّبُّ يَهْتَمُّ بِي. عَوْنِي وَمُنْقِذِي أَنْتَ. يَا إِلَهِي لَا تُبْطِئْ.
