| 1 يَا رَبُّ، قَدِ اخْتَبَرْتَنِي وَعَرَفْتَنِي. | 1 O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. |
|
| 2 أَنْتَ عَرَفْتَ جُلُوسِي وَقِيَامِي. فَهِمْتَ فِكْرِي مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. | 2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. |
|
3 مَسْلَكِي وَمَرْبَضِي ذَرَّيْتَ، وَكُلَّ طُرُقِي عَرَفْتَ.  | 3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. |
|
| 4 لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ كَلِمَةٌ فِي لِسَانِي، إِلاَّ وَأَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ عَرَفْتَهَا كُلَّهَا. | 4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. |
|
| 5 مِنْ خَلْفٍ وَمِنْ قُدَّامٍ حَاصَرْتَنِي، وَجَعَلْتَ عَلَيَّ يَدَكَ. | 5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. |
|
| 6 عَجِيبَةٌ هذِهِ الْمَعْرِفَةُ، فَوْقِي ارْتَفَعَتْ، لاَ أَسْتَطِيعُهَا. | 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. |
|
| 7 أَيْنَ أَذْهَبُ مِنْ رُوحِكَ؟ وَمِنْ وَجْهِكَ أَيْنَ أَهْرُبُ؟ | 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
|
| 8 إِنْ صَعِدْتُ إِلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ فَأَنْتَ هُنَاكَ، وَإِنْ فَرَشْتُ فِي الْهَاوِيَةِ فَهَا أَنْتَ. | 8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. |
|
| 9 إِنْ أَخَذْتُ جَنَاحَيِ الصُّبْحِ، وَسَكَنْتُ فِي أَقَاصِي الْبَحْرِ، | 9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; |
|
| 10 فَهُنَاكَ أَيْضًا تَهْدِينِي يَدُكَ وَتُمْسِكُنِي يَمِينُكَ. | 10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. |
|
| 11 فَقُلْتُ: «إِنَّمَا الظُّلْمَةُ تَغْشَانِي». فَاللَّيْلُ يُضِيءُ حَوْلِي! | 11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. |
|
| 12 الظُّلْمَةُ أَيْضًا لاَ تُظْلِمُ لَدَيْكَ، وَاللَّيْلُ مِثْلَ النَّهَارِ يُضِيءُ. كَالظُّلْمَةِ هكَذَا النُّورُ. | 12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. |
|
| 13 لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اقْتَنَيْتَ كُلْيَتَيَّ. نَسَجْتَنِي فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّي. | 13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. |
|
| 14 أَحْمَدُكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنِّي قَدِ امْتَزْتُ عَجَبًا. عَجِيبَةٌ هِيَ أَعْمَالُكَ، وَنَفْسِي تَعْرِفُ ذلِكَ يَقِينًا. | 14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. |
|
| 15 لَمْ تَخْتَفِ عَنْكَ عِظَامِي حِينَمَا صُنِعْتُ فِي الْخَفَاءِ، وَرُقِمْتُ فِي أَعْمَاقِ الأَرْضِ. | 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. |
|
| 16 رَأَتْ عَيْنَاكَ أَعْضَائِي، وَفِي سِفْرِكَ كُلُّهَا كُتِبَتْ يَوْمَ تَصَوَّرَتْ، إِذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهَا. | 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. |
|
| 17 مَا أَكْرَمَ أَفْكَارَكَ يَا اَللهُ عِنْدِي! مَا أَكْثَرَ جُمْلَتَهَا! | 17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! |
|
| 18 إِنْ أُحْصِهَا فَهِيَ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ الرَّمْلِ. اسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَأَنَا بَعْدُ مَعَكَ. | 18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. |
|
| 19 لَيْتَكَ تَقْتُلُ الأَشْرَارَ يَا اَللهُ. فَيَا رِجَالَ الدِّمَاءِ، ابْعُدُوا عَنِّي. | 19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. |
|
| 20 الَّذِينَ يُكَلِّمُونَكَ بِالْمَكْرِ نَاطِقِينَ بِالْكَذِبِ، هُمْ أَعْدَاؤُكَ. | 20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain. |
|
| 21 أَلاَ أُبْغِضُ مُبْغِضِيكَ يَا رَبُّ، وَأَمْقُتُ مُقَاوِمِيكَ؟ | 21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
|
| 22 بُغْضًا تَامًّا أَبْغَضْتُهُمْ. صَارُوا لِي أَعْدَاءً. | 22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies. |
|
| 23 اخْتَبِرْنِي يَا اَللهُ وَاعْرِفْ قَلْبِي. امْتَحِنِّي وَاعْرِفْ أَفْكَارِي. | 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: |
|
| 24 وَانْظُرْ إِنْ كَانَ فِيَّ طَرِيقٌ بَاطِلٌ، وَاهْدِنِي طَرِيقًا أَبَدِيًّا. | 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. |
