اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 107

١ 1 اِحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ.

Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

٢ 2 لِيَقُلْ مَفْدِيُّو ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱلَّذِينَ فَدَاهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ،

Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,

٣ 3 وَمِنَ ٱلْبُلْدَانِ جَمَعَهُمْ، مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَمِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ، مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَمِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ.

And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.

٤ 4 تَاهُوا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي قَفْرٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ. لَمْ يَجِدُوا مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ.

They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation;

٥ 5 جِيَاعٌ عِطَاشٌ أَيْضًا أَعْيَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ فِيهِمْ.

Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them:

٦ 6 فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ،

Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,

٧ 7 وَهَدَاهُمْ طَرِيقًا مُسْتَقِيمًا لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى مَدِينَةِ سَكَنٍ.

And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

٨ 8 فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ.

Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

٩ 9 لِأَنَّهُ أَشْبَعَ نَفْسًا مُشْتَهِيَةً وَمَلَأَ نَفْسًا جَائِعَةً خَيْرًا،

For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.

١٠ 10 ٱلْجُلُوسَ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، مُوثَقِينَ بِٱلذُّلِّ وَٱلْحَدِيدِ.

Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,

١١ 11 لِأَنَّهُمْ عَصَوْا كَلَامَ ٱللهِ، وَأَهَانُوا مَشُورَةَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ.

Because they had rebelled against the words of God, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; ...

١٢ 12 فَأَذَلَّ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِتَعَبٍ. عَثَرُوا وَلَا مَعِينَ.

And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help:

١٣ 13 ثُمَّ صَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ.

Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses;

١٤ 14 أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَقَطَّعَ قُيُودَهُمْ.

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.

١٥ 15 فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ.

Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

١٦ 16 لِأَنَّهُ كَسَّرَ مَصَارِيعَ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَطَّعَ عَوَارِضَ حَدِيدٍ.

For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.

١٧ 17 وَٱلْجُهَّالُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ مَعْصِيَتِهِمْ، وَمِنْ آثَامِهِمْ يُذَلُّونَ.

Fools, because of their way of transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted;

١٨ 18 كَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ كُلَّ طَعَامٍ، وَٱقْتَرَبُوا إِلَى أَبْوَابِ ٱلْمَوْتِ.

Their soul abhorreth all manner of food, and they draw near unto the gates of death:

١٩ 19 فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ.

Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saveth them out of their distresses;

٢٠ 20 أَرْسَلَ كَلِمَتَهُ فَشَفَاهُمْ، وَنَجَّاهُمْ مِنْ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ.

He sendeth his word, and healeth them, and delivereth them from their destructions.

٢١ 21 فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ.

Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men,

٢٢ 22 وَلْيَذْبَحُوا لَهُ ذَبَائِحَ ٱلْحَمْدِ، وَلْيَعُدُّوا أَعْمَالَهُ بِتَرَنُّمٍ.

And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works in joyful song.

٢٣ 23 اَلنَّازِلُونَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلسُّفُنِ، ٱلْعَامِلُونَ عَمَلًا فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ،

They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters,

٢٤ 24 هُمْ رَأَوْا أَعْمَالَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَجَائِبَهُ فِي ٱلْعُمْقِ.

These see the works of Jehovah, and his wonders in the deep.

٢٥ 25 أَمَرَ فَأَهَاجَ رِيحًا عَاصِفَةً فَرَفَعَتْ أَمْوَاجَهُ.

For he speaketh, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof:

٢٦ 26 يَصْعَدُونَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، يَهْبِطُونَ إِلَى ٱلْأَعْمَاقِ. ذَابَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ بِٱلشَّقَاءِ.

They mount up to the heavens, they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble;

٢٧ 27 يَتَمَايَلُونَ وَيَتَرَنَّحُونَ مِثْلَ ٱلسَّكْرَانِ، وَكُلُّ حِكْمَتِهِمِ ٱبْتُلِعَتْ.

They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they are at their wits' end:

٢٨ 28 فَيَصْرُخُونَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، وَمِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ يُخَلِّصُهُمْ.

Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses;

٢٩ 29 يُهْدِئُ ٱلْعَاصِفَةَ فَتَسْكُنُ، وَتَسْكُتُ أَمْوَاجُهَا.

He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:

٣٠ 30 فَيَفْرَحُونَ لِأَنَّهُمْ هَدَأُوا، فَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَرْفَإِ ٱلَّذِي يُرِيدُونَهُ.

And they rejoice because they are quiet; and he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

٣١ 31 فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ.

Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

٣٢ 32 وَلْيَرْفَعُوهُ فِي مَجْمَعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَلْيُسَبِّحُوهُ فِي مَجْلِسِ ٱلْمَشَايِخِ.

Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the session of the elders.

٣٣ 33 يَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَنْهَارَ قِفَارًا، وَمَجَارِيَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ مَعْطَشَةً،

He maketh rivers into a wilderness, and water-springs into dry ground;

٣٤ 34 وَٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْمُثْمِرَةَ سَبِخَةً مِنْ شَرِّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا.

A fruitful land into a plain of salt, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

٣٥ 35 يَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَفْرَ غَدِيرَ مِيَاهٍ، وَأَرْضًا يَبَسًا يَنَابِيعَ مِيَاهٍ.

He maketh the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs;

٣٦ 36 وَيُسْكِنُ هُنَاكَ ٱلْجِيَاعَ فَيُهَيِّئُونَ مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ.

And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, and they establish a city of habitation;

٣٧ 37 وَيَزْرَعُونَ حُقُولًا وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا، فَتَصْنَعُ ثَمَرَ غَلَّةٍ.

And sow fields, and plant vineyards, which yield fruits of increase;

٣٨ 38 وَيُبَارِكُهُمْ فَيَكْثُرُونَ جِدًّا، وَلَا يُقَلِّلُ بَهَائِمَهُمْ.

And he blesseth them, so that they are multiplied greatly; and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

٣٩ 39 ثُمَّ يَقِلُّونَ وَيَنْحَنُونَ مِنْ ضَغْطِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلْحُزْنِ.

And they are diminished and brought low, through oppression, adversity, and sorrow:

٤٠ 40 يَسْكُبُ هَوَانًا عَلَى رُؤَسَاءَ، وَيُضِلُّهُمْ فِي تِيهٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ،

He poureth contempt upon nobles, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste;

٤١ 41 وَيُعَلِّي ٱلْمِسْكِينَ مِنَ ٱلذُّلِّ، وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَبَائِلَ مِثْلَ قُطْعَانِ ٱلْغَنَمِ.

But he secureth the needy one on high from affliction, and maketh [him] families like flocks.

٤٢ 42 يَرَى ذَلِكَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ فَيَفْرَحُونَ، وَكُلُّ إِثْمٍ يَسُدُّ فَاهُ.

The upright shall see it, and rejoice; and all unrighteousness shall stop its mouth.

٤٣ 43 مَنْ كَانَ حَكِيمًا يَحْفَظُ هَذَا، وَيَتَعَقَّلُ مَرَاحِمَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, and let them understand the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah.
