1لامام المغنين. على لا تهلك. لداود. مذهبة. أحقا بالحق الاخرس تتكلمون بالمستقيمات تقضون يا بني آدم.
1For the Chief Musician; [set to] Al-tashheth. [A Psalm] of David. Michtam. Do ye indeed in silence speak righteousness? Do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
2بل بالقلب تعملون شرورا في الارض ظلم ايديكم تزنون.
2Nay, in heart ye work wickedness; Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
3زاغ الاشرار من الرحم ضلّوا من البطن متكلمين كذبا.
3The wicked are estranged from the womb: They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
4لهم حمة مثل حمة الحيّة. مثل الصلّ الاصم يسد اذنه
4Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [They are] like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear,
5الذي لا يستمع الى صوت الحواة الراقين رقى حكيم
5Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, Charming never so wisely.
6اللهم كسّر اسنانهم في افواههم. اهشم اضراس الاشبال يا رب.
6Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
7ليذوبوا كالماء ليذهبوا. اذا فوّق سهامه فلتنب.
7Let them melt away as water that runneth apace: When he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.
8كما يذوب الحلزون ماشيا. مثل سقط المرأة لا يعاينوا الشمس.
8[Let them be] as a snail which melteth and passeth away, [Like] the untimely birth of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
9قبل ان تشعر قدوركم بالشوك نيئا او محروقا يجرفهم.
9Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
10يفرح الصدّيق اذ راى النقمة. يغسل خطواته بدم الشرير.
10The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked;
11ويقول الانسان ان للصديق ثمرا. انه يوجد اله قاض في الارض
11So that men shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: Verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
