تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِدَاوُدَ فَرِحْتُ بِٱلْقَائِلِينَ لِي: «إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ نَذْهَبُ». ١ 1
I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.
تَقِفُ أَرْجُلُنَا فِي أَبْوَابِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ. ٢ 2
Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
أُورُشَلِيمُ ٱلْمَبْنِيَّةُ كَمَدِينَةٍ مُتَّصِلَةٍ كُلِّهَا، ٣ 3
Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.
حَيْثُ صَعِدَتِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطُ - أَسْبَاطُ ٱلرَّبِّ، شَهَادَةً لِإِسْرَائِيلَ- لِيَحْمَدُوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٤ 4
For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.
لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ ٱسْتَوَتِ ٱلْكَرَاسِيُّ لِلْقَضَاءِ، كَرَاسِيُّ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ. ٥ 5
Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.
ٱسْأَلُوا سَلَامَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ: «لِيَسْتَرِحْ مُحِبُّوكِ. ٦ 6
Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.
لِيَكُنْ سَلَامٌ فِي أَبْرَاجِكِ، رَاحَةٌ فِي قُصُورِكِ». ٧ 7
Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.
مِنْ أَجْلِ إِخْوَتِي وَأَصْحَابِي لَأَقُولَنَّ: «سَلَامٌ بِكِ». ٨ 8
For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.
مِنْ أَجْلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَلْتَمِسُ لَكِ خَيْرًا. ٩ 9
Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee.
