¹شجوية لداود غناها للرب بسبب كلام كوش البنياميني‏‎. ‎يا رب الهي عليك توكلت. خلصني من كل الذين يطردونني ونجني‎.

¹`The Erring One,` by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.

²‎لئلا يفترس كاسد نفسي هاشما اياها ولا منقذ

²Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.

³يا رب الهي ان كنت قد فعلت هذا ان وجد ظلم في يديّ

³O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,

⁴ان كافأت مسالمي شرا وسلبت مضايقي بلا سبب

⁴If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,

⁵فليطارد عدو نفسي وليدركها وليدس الى الارض حياتي وليحط الى التراب مجدي. سلاه

⁵An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.

⁶قم يا رب بغضبك ارتفع على سخط مضايقيّ وانتبه لي. بالحق اوصيت‎.

⁶Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast commanded:

⁷‎ومجمع القبائل يحيط بك فعد فوقها الى العلى‎.

⁷And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,

⁸‎الرب يدين الشعوب. اقض لي يا رب كحقي ومثل كمالي الذي فيّ‎.

⁸Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,

⁹‎لينته شر الاشرار وثبت الصدّيق. فان فاحص القلوب والكلى الله البار‎.

⁹Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.

¹⁰‎ترسي عند الله مخلّص مستقيمي القلوب

¹⁰My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!

¹¹الله قاض عادل واله يسخط في كل يوم‎.

¹¹God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.

¹²‎ان لم يرجع يحدد سيفه. مدّ قوسه وهيّأها‎.

¹²If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden — He prepareth it,

¹³‎وسدد نحوه آلة الموت. يجعل سهامه ملتهبة

¹³Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.

¹⁴هوذا يمخض بالاثم. حمل تعبا وولد كذبا‎.

¹⁴Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.

¹⁵‎كرا جبّا. حفره فسقط في الهوة التي صنع‎.

¹⁵A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh.

¹⁶‎يرجع تعبه على راسه وعلى هامته يهبط ظلمه‎.

¹⁶Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down.

¹⁷‎احمد الرب حسب بره. وارنم لاسم الرب العلي

¹⁷I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!
