اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 132

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ دَاوُدَ، كُلَّ ذُلِّهِ.

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” O LORD! remember David, And all his affliction!

٢ 2 كَيْفَ حَلَفَ لِلرَّبِّ، نَذَرَ لِعَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ:

How he sware to Jehovah, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

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

“I will not go into my house, Nor lie down on my bed,

٤ 4 لَا أُعْطِي وَسَنًا لِعَيْنَيَّ، وَلَا نَوْمًا لِأَجْفَانِي،

I will not give sleep to my eyes, Nor slumber to my eyelids,

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

Until I find a place for Jehovah, A habitation for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

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

Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah; We found it in the fields of the forest.

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

Let us go into his habitation; Let us worship at his footstool!

٨ 8 قُمْ يَارَبُّ إِلَى رَاحَتِكَ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزِّكَ.

Arise, O LORD! into thy rest, Thou, and the ark of thy strength!

٩ 9 كَهَنَتُكَ يَلْبَسُونَ ٱلْبِرَّ، وَأَتْقِيَاؤُكَ يَهْتِفُونَ.

Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, And thy holy ones shout for joy!

١٠ 10 مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرُدَّ وَجْهَ مَسِيحِكَ.

For the sake of thy servant David, Reject not the prayer of thine anointed!

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

Jehovah hath sworn in truth unto David, And he will not depart from it: “Of the fruit of thy body will I place upon the throne for thee.

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

If thy children keep my covenant, And my statutes, which I teach them, Their children also throughout all ages Shall sit upon thy throne.”

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

For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it as his dwelling-place.

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

“This is my resting-place for ever; Here will I dwell, for I have chosen it.

١٥ 15 طَعَامَهَا أُبَارِكُ بَرَكَةً. مَسَاكِينَهَا أُشْبِعُ خُبْزًا.

I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

١٦ 16 كَهَنَتَهَا أُلْبِسُ خَلَاصًا.

I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her holy ones shall shout aloud for joy.

١٧ 17 هُنَاكَ أُنْبِتُ قَرْنًا لِدَاوُدَ. رَتَّبْتُ سِرَاجًا لِمَسِيحِي.

There will I cause to spring forth a horn for David; I have prepared a light for mine anointed.

١٨ 18 أَعْدَاءَهُ أُلْبِسُ خِزْيًا، وَعَلَيْهِ يُزْهِرُ إِكْلِيلُهُ».

His enemies will I clothe with shame, And the crown shall glitter upon his head.”
