Psalms
1To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?2O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.3But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.4Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.5They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.6But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.7All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying ,8He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.9But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.10I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.11Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.12Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.13They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.14I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.15My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.16For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.17I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.18They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.19But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.20Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.21Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.22I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.23Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.24For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.25My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.26The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.27All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.28For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.29All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.30A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.31They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this .
لإِمَامِ الْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى أَيِّلَةِ الصُّبْحِ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ.

1إِلَهِي، إِلَهِي، لِمَاذَا تَرَكْتَنِي بَعِيداً عَنْ خَلاَصِي، عَنْ كَلاَمِ زَفِيرِي؟2إِلَهِي، فِي النَّهَارِ أَدْعُو فَلاَ تَسْتَجِيبُ، فِي اللَّيْلِ أَدْعُو فَلاَ هُدُوَّ لِي.3وَأَنْتَ الْقُدُّوسُ الْجَالِسُ بَيْنَ تَسْبِيحَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.4عَلَيْكَ اتَّكَلَ آبَاؤُنَا، اتَّكَلُوا فَنَجَّيْتَهُمْ.5إِلَيْكَ صَرَخُوا فَنَجَوْا، عَلَيْكَ اتَّكَلُوا فَلَمْ يَخْزَوْا.6أَمَّا أَنَا فَدُودَةٌ لاَ إِنْسَانٌ، عَارٌ عِنْدَ الْبَشَرِ وَمُحْتَقَرُ الشَّعْبِ.7كُلُّ الَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَنِي يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ بِي، يَفْغَرُونَ الشِّفَاهَ وَيُنْغِضُونَ الرَّأْسَ قَائِلِينَ:8اتَّكَلَ عَلَى الرَّبِّ فَلْيُنَجِّهِ، لِيُنْقِذْهُ لأَنَّهُ سُرَّ بِهِ.9لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ جَذَبْتَنِي مِنَ الْبَطْنِ، جَعَلْتَنِي مُطْمَئِنّاً عَلَى ثَدْيَيْ أُمِّي.10عَلَيْكَ أُلْقِيتُ مِنَ الرَّحِمِ، مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّي أَنْتَ إِلَهِي.11لاَ تَتَبَاعَدْ عَنِّي لأَنَّ الضِّيقَ قَرِيبٌ، لأَنَّهُ لاَ مُعِينَ.

12أَحَاطَتْ بِي ثِيرَانٌ كَثِيرَةٌ، أَقْوِيَاءُ بَاشَانَ اكْتَنَفَتْنِي.13فَغَرُوا عَلَيَّ أَفْوَاهَهُمْ كَأَسَدٍ مُفْتَرِسٍ مُزَمْجِرٍ.14كَالْمَاءِ انْسَكَبْتُ، انْفَصَلَتْ كُلُّ عِظَامِي. صَارَ قَلْبِي كَالشَّمْعِ، قَدْ ذَابَ فِي وَسَطِ أَمْعَائِي.15يَبِسَتْ مِثْلَ شَقْفَةٍ قُوَّتِي وَلَصِقَ لِسَانِي بِحَنَكِي، وَإِلَى تُرَابِ الْمَوْتِ تَضَعُنِي.16لأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَحَاطَتْ بِي كِلاَبٌ، جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ الأَشْرَارِ اكْتَنَفَتْنِي، ثَقَبُوا يَدَيَّ وَرِجْلَيَّ.17أُحْصِي كُلَّ عِظَامِي، وَهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ وَيَتَفَرَّسُونَ فِيَّ.18يَقْسِمُونَ ثِيَابِي بَيْنَهُمْ وَعَلَى لِبَاسِي يَقْتَرِعُونَ.

19أَمَّا أَنْتَ، يَا رَبُّ، فَلاَ تَبْعُدْ. يَا قُوَّتِي، أَسْرِعْ إِلَى نُصْرَتِي.20أَنْقِذْ مِنَ السَّيْفِ نَفْسِي، مِنْ يَدِ الْكَلْبِ وَحِيدَتِي.21خَلِّصْنِي مِنْ فَمِ الأَسَدِ، وَمِنْ قُرُونِ بَقَرِ الْوَحْشِ اسْتَجِبْ لِي.

22أُخْبِرْ بِاسْمِكَ إِخْوَتِي، فِي وَسَطِ الْجَمَاعَةِ أُسَبِّحُكَ.23يَا خَائِفِي الرَّبِّ، سَبِّحُوهُ. مَجِّدُوهُ، يَا مَعْشَرَ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَاخْشَوْهُ، يَا زَرْعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ جَمِيعاً.24لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَحْتَقِرْ وَلَمْ يَرْذُلْ مَسْكَنَةَ الْمِسْكِينِ، وَلَمْ يَحْجُبْ وَجْهَهُ عَنْهُ، بَلْ عِنْدَ صُرَاخِهِ إِلَيْهِ اسْتَمَعَ.25مِنْ قِبَلِكَ تَسْبِيحِي فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ الْعَظِيمَةِ، أُوفِي بِنُذُورِي قُدَّامَ خَائِفِيهِ.26يَأْكُلُ الْوُدَعَاءُ وَيَشْبَعُونَ، يُسَبِّحُ الرَّبَّ طَالِبُوهُ، تَحْيَا قُلُوبُكُمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.27تَذْكُرُ وَتَرْجِعُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ كُلُّ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ، وَتَسْجُدُ قُدَّامَكَ كُلُّ قَبَائِلِ الأُمَمِ.28لأَنَّ لِلرَّبِّ الْمُلْكَ وَهُوَ الْمُتَسَلِّطُ عَلَى الأُمَمِ.29أَكَلَ وَسَجَدَ كُلُّ سَمِينِي الأَرْضِ، قُدَّامَهُ يَجْثُو كُلُّ مَنْ يَنْحَدِرُ إِلَى التُّرَابِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُحْيِ نَفْسَهُ.30الذُّرِّيَّةُ تَتَعَبَّدُ لَهُ، يُخَبَّرُ عَنِ الرَّبِّ الْجِيلُ الآتِي.31يَأْتُونَ وَيُخْبِرُونَ بِبِرِّهِ شَعْباً سَيُولَدُ، بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ فَعَلَ.
