اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 103

١ 1 لِدَاوُدَ بَارِكِي يَا نَفْسِي ٱلرَّبَّ، وَكُلُّ مَا فِي بَاطِنِي لِيُبَارِكِ ٱسْمَهُ ٱلْقُدُّوسَ.

To David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and bless his holy name, all that is within me.

٢ 2 بَارِكِي يَا نَفْسِي ٱلرَّبَّ، وَلَا تَنْسَيْ كُلَّ حَسَنَاتِهِ.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all his recompenses.

٣ 3 ٱلَّذِي يَغْفِرُ جَمِيعَ ذُنُوبِكِ. ٱلَّذِي يَشْفِي كُلَّ أَمْرَاضِكِ.

He forgives all your iniquities. He heals all your infirmities.

٤ 4 ٱلَّذِي يَفْدِي مِنَ ٱلْحُفْرَةِ حَيَاتَكِ. ٱلَّذِي يُكَلِّلُكِ بِٱلرَّحْمَةِ وَٱلرَّأْفَةِ.

He redeems your life from destruction. He crowns you with mercy and compassion.

٥ 5 ٱلَّذِي يُشْبِعُ بِٱلْخَيْرِ عُمْرَكِ، فَيَتَجَدَّدُ مِثْلَ ٱلنَّسْرِ شَبَابُكِ.

He satisfies your desire with good things. Your youth will be renewed like that of the eagle.

٦ 6 اَلرَّبُّ مُجْرِي ٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْقَضَاءِ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلْمَظْلُومِينَ.

The Lord accomplishes mercies, and his judgment is for all who patiently endure injuries.

٧ 7 عَرَّفَ مُوسَى طُرُقَهُ، وَبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَفْعَالَهُ.

He has made his ways known to Moses, his will to the sons of Israel.

٨ 8 ٱلرَّبُّ رَحِيمٌ وَرَؤُوفٌ، طَوِيلُ ٱلرُّوحِ وَكَثِيرُ ٱلرَّحْمَةِ.

The Lord is compassionate and merciful, patient and full of mercy.

٩ 9 لَا يُحَاكِمُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَلَا يَحْقِدُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ.

He will not be angry forever, and he will not threaten for eternity.

١٠ 10 لَمْ يَصْنَعْ مَعَنَا حَسَبَ خَطَايَانَا، وَلَمْ يُجَازِنَا حَسَبَ آثَامِنَا.

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, and he has not repaid us according to our iniquities.

١١ 11 لِأَنَّهُ مِثْلُ ٱرْتِفَاعِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ فَوْقَ ٱلْأَرْضِ قَوِيَتْ رَحْمَتُهُ عَلَى خَائِفِيهِ.

For according to the height of the heavens above the earth, so has he reinforced his mercy toward those who fear him.

١٢ 12 كَبُعْدِ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ مِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ أَبْعَدَ عَنَّا مَعَاصِيَنَا.

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our iniquities from us.

١٣ 13 كَمَا يَتَرَأَفُ ٱلْأَبُ عَلَى ٱلْبَنِينَ يَتَرَأَفُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى خَائِفِيهِ.

As a father is compassionate to his sons, so has the Lord been compassionate to those who fear him.

١٤ 14 لِأَنَّهُ يَعْرِفُ جِبْلَتَنَا. يَذْكُرُ أَنَّنَا تُرَابٌ نَحْنُ.

For he knows our form. He has called to mind that we are dust.

١٥ 15 ٱلْإِنْسَانُ مِثْلُ ٱلْعُشْبِ أَيَّامُهُ. كَزَهَرِ ٱلْحَقْلِ كَذَلِكَ يُزْهِرُ.

Man: his days are like hay. Like the flower of the field, so will he flourish.

١٦ 16 لِأَنَّ رِيحًا تَعْبُرُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَا يَكُونُ، وَلَا يَعْرِفُهُ مَوْضِعُهُ بَعْدُ.

For the spirit in him will pass away, and it will not remain, and he will know his place no longer.

١٧ 17 أَمَّا رَحْمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ فَإِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْأَبَدِ عَلَى خَائِفِيهِ، وَعَدْلُهُ عَلَى بَنِي ٱلْبَنِينَ،

But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity, and even unto eternity, upon those who fear him. And his justice is with the sons of the sons,

١٨ 18 لِحَافِظِي عَهْدِهِ وَذَاكِرِي وَصَايَاهُ لِيَعْمَلُوهَا.

with those who serve his covenant and have been mindful of his commandments by doing them.

١٩ 19 اَلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ ثَبَّتَ كُرْسِيَّهُ، وَمَمْلَكَتُهُ عَلَى ٱلْكُلِّ تَسُودُ.

The Lord has prepared his throne in heaven, and his kingdom will rule over all.

٢٠ 20 بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ يَا مَلَائِكَتَهُ ٱلْمُقْتَدِرِينَ قُوَّةً، ٱلْفَاعِلِينَ أَمْرَهُ عِنْدَ سَمَاعِ صَوْتِ كَلَامِهِ.

Bless the Lord, all you his Angels: powerful in virtue, doing his word, in order to heed the voice of his discourse.

٢١ 21 بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ يَا جَمِيعَ جُنُودِهِ، خُدَّامَهُ ٱلْعَامِلِينَ مَرْضَاتَهُ.

Bless the Lord, all his hosts: his ministers who do his will.

٢٢ 22 بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ يَا جَمِيعَ أَعْمَالِهِ، فِي كُلِّ مَوَاضِعِ سُلْطَانِهِ. بَارِكِي يَا نَفْسِيَ ٱلرَّبَّ.

Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul.
