⁴I said, “Yahweh, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”

⁴انا قلت يا رب ارحمني. اشف نفسي لاني قد اخطأت اليك‎.

⁵My enemies speak evil against me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”

⁵‎اعدائي يتقاولون عليّ بشر. متى يموت ويبيد اسمه‎.

⁶If he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.

⁶‎وان دخل ليراني يتكلم بالكذب. قلبه يجمع لنفسه اثما. يخرج في الخارج يتكلم‎.

⁷All who hate me whisper together against me. They imagine the worst for me.

⁷‎كل مبغضيّ يتناجون معا عليّ. عليّ تفكروا باذيتي‎.

⁸‎يقولون امر رديء قد انسكب عليه. حيث اضطجع لا يعود يقوم‎.

⁹Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate bread with me, has lifted up his heel against me.

⁹‎ايضا رجل سلامتي الذي وثقت به آكل خبزي رفع عليّ عقبه

¹⁰But you, Yahweh, have mercy on me, and raise me up, that I may repay them.

¹⁰اما انت يا رب فارحمني واقمني فاجازيهم‎.

¹¹By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.

¹¹‎بهذا علمت انك سررت بي انه لم يهتف عليّ عدوّي‎.

¹²As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me in your presence forever.

¹²‎اما انا فبكمالي دعمتني واقمتني قدامك الى الابد‎.

¹³Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting! Amen and amen. BOOK II
