¹For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

¹لامام المغنين. مزمور لداود‎. ‎استمع يا الله صوتي في شكواي. من خوف العدو احفظ حياتي‎.

²Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

²‎استرني من مؤامرة الاشرار من جمهور فاعلي الاثم

³Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,

³الذين صقلوا ألسنتهم كالسيف. فوّقوا سهمهم كلاما مرّا

⁴That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

⁴ليرموا الكامل في المختفى بغتة يرمونه ولا يخشون‎.

⁵They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?

⁵‎يشددون انفسهم لامر رديء. يتحادثون بطمر فخاخ. قالوا من يراهم

⁶They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, [say they], a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.

⁶يخترعون اثما تمموا اختراعا محكما. وداخل الانسان وقلبه عميق

⁷But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.

⁷فيرميهم الله بسهم بغتة كانت ضربتهم‎.

⁸So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.

⁸‎ويوقعون السنتهم على انفسهم. ينغض الراس كل من ينظر اليهم‎.

⁹And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.

⁹‎ويخشى كل انسان ويخبر بفعل الله وبعمله يفطنون‎.

¹⁰The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory.

¹⁰‎يفرح الصدّيق بالرب ويحتمي به ويبتهج كل المستقيمي القلوب
