Psalm 9

I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;
    I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.

أَحْمَدُ الرَّبَّ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِي. أُحَدِّثُ بِجَمِيعِ مُعْجِزَاتِكَ.

I will be glad and rejoice in you;
    I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High.

أَفْرَحُ بِكَ وَأَبْتَهِجُ. أُرَنِّمُ لاِسْمِكَ أَيُّهَا العَلِيُّ.

My enemies turn back;
    they stumble and perish before you.

عِنْدَمَا يَتَقَهْقَرُ أَعْدَائِي إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ، يَتَعَثَّرُونَ وَيَهْلِكُونَ أَمَامَ وَجْهِكَ،

For you have upheld my right and my cause,
    sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.

لأَنَّكَ بَرَّأْتَنِي وَدَافَعْتَ عَنْ قَضِيَّتِي، إِذْ جَلَسْتَ عَلَى عَرْشِكَ لِتَقْضِيَ بِالْعَدْلِ.

You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;
    you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.

زَجَرْتَ الشُّعُوبَ وَأَهْلَكْتَ الشِّرِّيرَ، مَحَوْتَ اسْمَهُمْ إِلَى أَبَدِ الدُّهُورِ.

Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,
    you have uprooted their cities;
    even the memory of them has perished.

أَفْنَيْتَ الْعَدُوَّ إِفْنَاءً. دَمَّرْتَ مُدُنَهُمْ حَتَّى بَادَ ذِكْرُهُمْ.

The Lord reigns forever;
    he has established his throne for judgment.

أَمَّا الرَّبُّ فَإِلَى الأَبَدِ يَمْلِكُ. ثَبَّتَ عَرْشَهُ لِلْقَضَاءِ.

He rules the world in righteousness
    and judges the peoples with equity.

يَدِينُ الْعَالَمَ بِالْعَدْلِ وَيَقْضِي بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ بِالإِنْصَافِ.

The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,
    a stronghold in times of trouble.

وَيَكُونُ الرَّبُّ مَلْجَأً لِلْمَظْلُومِ، حِصْناً فِي أَزْمِنَةِ الضِّيقِ.

Those who know your name trust in you,
    for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.

وَيَتَّكِلُ عَلَيْكَ الَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَ اسْمَكَ، لأَنَّكَ يَا رَبُّ لَمْ تَخْذِلْ طَالِبِيكَ.

Sing the praises of the Lord, enthroned in Zion;
    proclaim among the nations what he has done.

أَشِيدُوا بِالْحَمْدِ لِلرَّبِّ الْمُتَوَّجِ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، أَذِيعُوا بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ أَعْمَالَهُ الْعَظِيمَةَ.

For he who avenges blood remembers;
    he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.

فَهُوَ الَّذِي يَثْأَرُ لِلدِّمَاءِ. لَا يَنْسَى وَلَا يَتَجَاهَلُ صُرَاخَ الْمُتَضَايِقِينَ.

Lord, see how my enemies persecute me!
    Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,

ارْحَمْنِي يَا رَبُّ. انْظُرْ مَذَلَّتِي الَّتِي يَسُومُنِي إِيَّاهَا مُبْغِضِيَّ، يَا مُنْقِذِي مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْمَوْتِ،

that I may declare your praises
    in the gates of Daughter Zion,
    and there rejoice in your salvation.

لِكَيْ أُحَدِّثَ بِجَمِيعِ تَسَابِيحِكَ فِي أَبْوَابِ سَاكِنِي صِهْيَوْنَ، مُبْتَهِجاً بِخَلاصِكَ.

The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;
    their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.

لَقَدْ هَوَتِ الشُّعُوبُ فِي أَعْمَاقِ الحُفْرَةِ الَّتِي حَفَرُوهَا، وَأَطْبَقَ الْفَخُّ الَّذِي نَصَبُوهُ عَلَى أَرْجُلِهِمْ.

The Lord is known by his acts of justice;
    the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.^[c]

الرَّبُّ مَعْرُوفٌ بِعَدْلِهِ، قَضَى أَنْ يَقَعَ الشِّرِّيرُ فِي شَرَكِ أَعْمَالِهِ.

The wicked go down to the realm of the dead,
    all the nations that forget God.

مَآلُ الأَشْرَارِ إِلَى الْجَحِيمِ. وَكَذَلِكَ جَمِيعُ الأُمَمِ النَّاسِينَ اللهَ.

But God will never forget the needy;
    the hope of the afflicted will never perish.

أَمَّا الْمُحْتَاجُ الْمُتَضَايِقُ فَلَنْ يُنْسَى إِلَى الأَبَدِ. وَرَجَاءُ الْمَسَاكِينِ لَنْ يَخِيبَ إِلَى الدَّهْرِ.

Arise, Lord, do not let mortals triumph;
    let the nations be judged in your presence.

قُمْ يَا رَبُّ. لَا تَدَعِ الإِنْسَانَ يَسُودُ، وَلْتُحَاكَمِ الأُمَمُ أَمَامَ حَضْرَتِكَ.

Strike them with terror, Lord;
    let the nations know they are only mortal.
