اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 132

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ دَاوُدَ، كُلَّ ذُلِّهِ.

A Song of the going up. Lord, give thought to David, and to all his troubles;

٢ 2 كَيْفَ حَلَفَ لِلرَّبِّ، نَذَرَ لِعَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ:

How he made an oath to the Lord, and gave his word to the great God of Jacob, saying,

٣ 3 «لَا أَدْخُلُ خَيْمَةَ بَيْتِي. لَا أَصْعَدُ عَلَى سَرِيرِ فِرَاشِي.

Truly, I will not come into my house, or go to my bed,

٤ 4 لَا أُعْطِي وَسَنًا لِعَيْنَيَّ، وَلَا نَوْمًا لِأَجْفَانِي،

I will not give sleep to my eyes, or rest to my eyeballs,

٥ 5 أَوْ أَجِدَ مَقَامًا لِلرَّبِّ، مَسْكَنًا لِعَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ».

Till I have got a place for the Lord, a resting-place for the great God of Jacob.

٦ 6 هُوَذَا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ. وَجَدْنَاهُ فِي حُقُولِ ٱلْوَعْرِ.

We had news of it at Ephrathah: we came to it in the fields of the wood.

٧ 7 «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى مَسَاكِنِهِ. لِنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ».

Let us go into his tent; let us give worship at his feet.

٨ 8 قُمْ يَارَبُّ إِلَى رَاحَتِكَ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزِّكَ.

Come back, O Lord, to your resting-place; you and the ark of your strength.

٩ 9 كَهَنَتُكَ يَلْبَسُونَ ٱلْبِرَّ، وَأَتْقِيَاؤُكَ يَهْتِفُونَ.

Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let your saints give cries of joy.

١٠ 10 مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرُدَّ وَجْهَ مَسِيحِكَ.

Because of your servant David, do not give up your king.

١١ 11 أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ بِٱلْحَقِّ لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أَجْعَلُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ.

The Lord gave a true oath to David, which he will not take back, saying, I will give your kingdom to the fruit of your body.

١٢ 12 إِنْ حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي ٱلَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، فَبَنُوهُمْ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَجْلِسُونَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ».

If your children keep my word, and the teachings which I will give them, their children will be rulers of your kingdom for ever.

١٣ 13 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَ صِهْيَوْنَ. ٱشْتَهَاهَا مَسْكَنًا لَهُ:

For the Lord's heart is on Zion, desiring it for his resting-place.

١٤ 14 «هَذِهِ هِيَ رَاحَتِي إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. هَهُنَا أَسْكُنُ لِأَنِّي ٱشْتَهَيْتُهَا.

This is my rest for ever: here will I ever be; for this is my desire.

١٥ 15 طَعَامَهَا أُبَارِكُ بَرَكَةً. مَسَاكِينَهَا أُشْبِعُ خُبْزًا.

My blessing will be on her food; and her poor will be full of bread.

١٦ 16 كَهَنَتَهَا أُلْبِسُ خَلَاصًا.

Her priests will be clothed with salvation; and her saints will give cries of joy.

١٧ 17 هُنَاكَ أُنْبِتُ قَرْنًا لِدَاوُدَ. رَتَّبْتُ سِرَاجًا لِمَسِيحِي.

There I will make the horn of David fertile: I have made ready a light for my king.

١٨ 18 أَعْدَاءَهُ أُلْبِسُ خِزْيًا، وَعَلَيْهِ يُزْهِرُ إِكْلِيلُهُ».

His haters will be clothed with shame; but I will make his crown shining.
