< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 89 >

قَصِيدَةٌ لِأَيْثَانَ ٱلْأَزْرَاحِيِّ بِمَرَاحِمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُغَنِّي إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. لِدَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ أُخْبِرُ عَنْ حَقِّكَ بِفَمِي. ١ 1
[A Psalm] of instruction for Aetham the Israelite. I will sing of thy mercies, O Lord, for ever: I will declare thy truth with my mouth to all generations.
لِأَنِّي قُلْتُ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ تُبْنَى. ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ تُثْبِتُ فِيهَا حَقَّكَ». ٢ 2
For thou hast said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy truth shall be established in the heavens.
«قَطَعْتُ عَهْدًا مَعَ مُخْتَارِي، حَلَفْتُ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي: ٣ 3
I made a covenant with my chosen ones, I sware unto David my servant.
إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ أُثَبِّتُ نَسْلَكَ، وَأَبْنِي إِلَى دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ كُرْسِيَّكَ». سِلَاهْ. ٤ 4
I will establish thy seed for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Pause)
وَٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ تَحْمَدُ عَجَائِبَكَ يَارَبُّ، وَحَقَّكَ أَيْضًا فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ. ٥ 5
The heavens shall declare thy wonders, O Lord; and thy truth in the assembly of the saints.
لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ يُعَادِلُ ٱلرَّبَّ. مَنْ يُشْبِهُ ٱلرَّبَّ بَيْنَ أَبْنَاءِ ٱللهِ؟ ٦ 6
For who in the heavens shall be compared to the Lord? and who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of God?
إِلَهٌ مَهُوبٌ جِدًّا فِي مُؤَامَرَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ، وَمَخُوفٌ عِنْدَ جَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ. ٧ 7
God is glorified in the council of the saints; great and terrible toward all that are round about him.
يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟ قَوِيٌّ، رَبٌّ، وَحَقُّكَ مِنْ حَوْلِكَ. ٨ 8
O Lord God of hosts, who is like to thee? thou art mighty, O Lord, and thy truth is round about thee.
أَنْتَ مُتَسَلِّطٌ عَلَى كِبْرِيَاءِ ٱلْبَحْرِ. عِنْدَ ٱرْتِفَاعِ لُجَجِهِ أَنْتَ تُسَكِّنُهَا. ٩ 9
Thou rulest the power of the sea; and thou calmest the tumult of its waves.
أَنْتَ سَحَقْتَ رَهَبَ مِثْلَ ٱلْقَتِيلِ. بِذِرَاعِ قُوَّتِكَ بَدَّدْتَ أَعْدَاءَكَ. ١٠ 10
Thou has brought down the proud as one that is slain; and with the arm of thy power thou has scattered thine enemies.
لَكَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ. لَكَ أَيْضًا ٱلْأَرْضُ. ٱلْمَسْكُونَةُ وَمِلْؤُهَا أَنْتَ أَسَّسْتَهُمَا. ١١ 11
The heavens are thine, and the earth is thine: thou hast founded the world, and the fullness of it.
ٱلشِّمَالُ وَٱلْجَنُوبُ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهُمَا. تَابُورُ وَحَرْمُونُ بِٱسْمِكَ يَهْتِفَانِ. ١٢ 12
Thou hast created the north and the west: Thabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
لَكَ ذِرَاعُ ٱلْقُدْرَةِ. قَوِيَّةٌ يَدُكَ. مُرْتَفِعَةٌ يَمِينُكَ. ١٣ 13
Thine is the mighty arm: let thy hand be strengthened, let thy right hand be exalted.
ٱلْعَدْلُ وَٱلْحَقُّ قَاعِدَةُ كُرْسِيِّكَ. ٱلرَّحْمَةُ وَٱلْأَمَانَةُ تَتَقَدَّمَانِ أَمَامَ وَجْهِكَ. ١٤ 14
Justice and judgment are the establishment of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
طُوبَى لِلشَّعْبِ ٱلْعَارِفِينَ ٱلْهُتَافَ. يَارَبُّ، بِنُورِ وَجْهِكَ يَسْلُكُونَ. ١٥ 15
Blessed is the people that knows the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.
بِٱسْمِكَ يَبْتَهِجُونَ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَبِعَدْلِكَ يَرْتَفِعُونَ. ١٦ 16
And in thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ فَخْرُ قُوَّتِهِمْ، وَبِرِضَاكَ يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُنَا. ١٧ 17
For thou art the boast of their strength; and in thy good pleasure shall our horn be exalted,
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مِجَنُّنَا، وَقُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَلِكُنَا. ١٨ 18
for [our] help is of the Lord; and of the Holy One of Israel, our king.
حِينَئِذٍ كَلَّمْتَ بِرُؤْيَا تَقِيَّكَ وَقُلْتَ: «جَعَلْتُ عَوْنًا عَلَى قَوِيٍّ. رَفَعْتُ مُخْتَارًا مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ١٩ 19
Then thou spokest in vision to thy children, and saidst, I have laid help on a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of my people.
وَجَدْتُ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي. بِدُهْنِ قُدْسِي مَسَحْتُهُ. ٢٠ 20
I have found David my servant; I have anointed him by [my] holy mercy.
ٱلَّذِي تَثْبُتُ يَدِي مَعَهُ. أَيْضًا ذِرَاعِي تُشَدِّدُهُ. ٢١ 21
For my hand shall support him; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
لَا يُرْغِمُهُ عَدُوٌّ، وَٱبْنُ ٱلْإِثْمِ لَا يُذَلِّلُهُ. ٢٢ 22
The enemy shall have no advantage against him; and the son of transgression shall not hurt him again.
وَأَسْحَقُ أَعْدَاءَهُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِهِ، وَأَضْرِبُ مُبْغِضِيهِ. ٢٣ 23
And I will hew down his foes before him, and put to flight those that hate him.
أَمَّا أَمَانَتِي وَرَحْمَتِي فَمَعَهُ، وَبِٱسْمِي يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُهُ. ٢٤ 24
But my truth and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
وَأَجْعَلُ عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ يَدَهُ، وَعَلَى ٱلْأَنْهَارِ يَمِينَهُ. ٢٥ 25
And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
هُوَ يَدْعُونِي: أَبِي أَنْتَ، إِلَهِي وَصَخْرَةُ خَلَاصِي. ٢٦ 26
He shall call upon me, [saying], Thou art my Father, my God, and the helper of my salvation.
أَنَا أَيْضًا أَجْعَلُهُ بِكْرًا، أَعْلَى مِنْ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢٧ 27
And I will make him [my] first-born, higher than the kings of the earth.
إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ أَحْفَظُ لَهُ رَحْمَتِي. وَعَهْدِي يُثَبَّتُ لَهُ. ٢٨ 28
I will keep my mercy for him for ever, and my covenant [shall be] firm with him.
وَأَجْعَلُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ نَسْلَهُ مِثْلَ أَيَّامِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. ٢٩ 29
And I will establish his seed for ever and ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
إِنْ تَرَكَ بَنُوهُ شَرِيعَتِي وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا بِأَحْكَامِي، ٣٠ 30
If his children should forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
إِنْ نَقَضُوا فَرَائِضِي وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَايَ، ٣١ 31
if they should profane my ordinances, and not keep my commandments;
أَفْتَقِدُ بِعَصًا مَعْصِيَتَهُمْ، وَبِضَرَبَاتٍ إِثْمَهُمْ. ٣٢ 32
I will visit their transgressions with a rod, and their sins with scourges.
أَمَّا رَحْمَتِي فَلَا أَنْزِعُهَا عَنْهُ، وَلَا أَكْذِبُ مِنْ جِهَةِ أَمَانَتِي. ٣٣ 33
But my mercy I will not utterly remove from him, nor wrong my truth.
لَا أَنْقُضُ عَهْدِي، وَلَا أُغَيِّرُ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ شَفَتَيَّ. ٣٤ 34
Neither will I by any means profane my covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of my lips.
مَرَّةً حَلَفْتُ بِقُدْسِي، أَنِّي لَا أَكْذِبُ لِدَاوُدَ: ٣٥ 35
Once have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie to David.
نَسْلُهُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ يَكُونُ، وَكُرْسِيُّهُ كَٱلشَّمْسِ أَمَامِي. ٣٦ 36
His see shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me;
مِثْلَ ٱلْقَمَرِ يُثَبَّتُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. وَٱلشَّاهِدُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَمِينٌ. سِلَاهْ. ٣٧ 37
and as the moon [that is] established for ever, and as the faithful witness in heaven. (Pause)
لَكِنَّكَ رَفَضْتَ وَرَذَلْتَ، غَضِبْتَ عَلَى مَسِيحِكَ. ٣٨ 38
But thou hast cast off and set at nought, thou has rejected thine anointed.
نَقَضْتَ عَهْدَ عَبْدِكَ، نَجَّسْتَ تَاجَهُ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ. ٣٩ 39
Thou hast overthrown the covenant of thy servant; thou has profaned his sanctuary, [casting it] to the ground.
هَدَمْتَ كُلَّ جُدْرَانِهِ جَعَلْتَ حُصُونَهُ خَرَابًا. ٤٠ 40
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast made his strong holds a terror.
أَفْسَدَهُ كُلُّ عَابِرِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ صَارَ عَارًا عِنْدَ جِيرَانِهِ. ٤١ 41
All that go by the way have spoiled him: he is become a reproach to his neighbours.
رَفَعْتَ يَمِينَ مُضَايِقِيهِ، فَرَّحْتَ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِهِ. ٤٢ 42
Thou hast exalted the right hand of his enemies; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
أَيْضًا رَدَدْتَ حَدَّ سَيْفِهِ، وَلَمْ تَنْصُرْهُ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ. ٤٣ 43
Thou hast turned back the help of his sword, and hast not helped him in the battle.
أَبْطَلْتَ بَهَاءَهُ، وَأَلْقَيْتَ كُرْسِيَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٤٤ 44
Thou hast deprived him of glory: thou hast broken down his throne to the ground.
قَصَّرْتَ أَيَّامَ شَبَابِهِ غَطَّيْتَهُ بِٱلْخِزْيِ. سِلَاهْ. ٤٥ 45
Thou hast shortened the days of his throne: thou hast poured shame upon him. (Pause)
حَتَّى مَتَى يَارَبُّ تَخْتَبِئُ كُلَّ ٱلِٱخْتِبَاءِ؟ حَتَّى مَتَى يَتَّقِدُ كَٱلنَّارِ غَضَبُكَ؟ ٤٦ 46
How long, O Lord, wilt thou turn away, for ever? shall thine anger flame out as fire?
ٱذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَنَا زَائِلٌ، إِلَى أَيِّ بَاطِلٍ خَلَقْتَ جَمِيعَ بَنِي آدَمَ! ٤٧ 47
Remember what my being is: for hast thou created all the sons of men in vain?
أَيُّ إِنْسَانٍ يَحْيَا وَلَا يَرَى ٱلْمَوْتَ؟ أَيٌّ يُنَجِّي نَفْسَهُ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ؟ سِلَاهْ. (Sheol h7585) ٤٨ 48
What man is there who shall live, and not see death? shall [any one] deliver his soul from the hand of Hades? (Pause) (Sheol h7585)
أَيْنَ مَرَاحِمُكَ ٱلْأُوَلُ يَارَبُّ، ٱلَّتِي حَلَفْتَ بِهَا لِدَاوُدَ بِأَمَانَتِكَ؟ ٤٩ 49
Where are thine ancient mercies, O Lord, which thou swarest to David in thy truth?
ٱذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ عَارَ عَبِيدِكَ ٱلَّذِي أَحْتَمِلُهُ فِي حِضْنِي مِنْ كَثْرَةِ ٱلْأُمَمِ كُلِّهَا، ٥٠ 50
Remember, O Lord, the reproach of thy servants, which I have borne in my bosom, [even the reproach] of many nations;
ٱلَّذِي بِهِ عَيَّرَ أَعْدَاؤُكَ يَارَبُّ، ٱلَّذِينَ عَيَّرُوا آثَارَ مَسِيحِكَ. ٥١ 51
wherewith thine enemies have reviled, O Lord: wherewith they have reviled the recompense of thine anointed.
مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. آمِينَ فَآمِينَ. ٥٢ 52
Blessed be the Lord for ever. So be it, so be it.
