1 أخبار 16
| ثُمَّ أَدْخَلُوا تَابُوتَ اللهِ إِلَى الْخَيْمَةِ الَّتِي نَصَبَهَا دَاوُدُ، وَوَضَعُوهُ فِي وَسَطِهَا وَقَرَّبُوا مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَذَبَائِحَ سَلامٍ لِلهِ. | ١ 1 |
They brought in the ark of God and put it in the middle of the tent that David had set up for it. Then they offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before God.
| وَبَعْدَ أَنِ انْتَهَى دَاوُدُ مِنْ تَقْدِيمِ الْمُحْرَقَاتِ وَذَبَائِحِ السَّلامِ بَارَكَ الشَّعْبَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ. | ٢ 2 |
When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offering and the fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh.
| وَوَزَّعَ عَلَى كُلِّ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ مِنْ رِجَالٍ وَنِسَاءٍ وَسَائِرِ الْحَاضِرِينَ رَغِيفَ خُبْزٍ وَكَأْسَ خَمْرٍ وَقُرْصَ زَبِيبٍ. | ٣ 3 |
He distributed to every Israelite, both to men and women, a loaf of bread, and a piece of meat, and a cake of raisins.
| وَعَيَّنَ دَاوُدُ عَدَداً مِنَ اللّاوِيِّينَ لِيَقُومُوا بِالْخِدْمَةِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ الرَّبِّ وَلِرَفْعِ التَّضَرُّعَاتِ وَتَقْدِيمِ الشُّكْرِ وَالتَّسْبِيحِ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤ 4 |
David appointed certain Levites to serve before the ark of Yahweh, and to celebrate, thank and praise Yahweh, the God of Israel.
| وَجَعَلَ آسَافَ رَئِيساً عَلَيْهِمْ وَزَكَرِيَّا مُعَاوِناً لَهُ، وَكَانَ يَعِيئِيلُ وَشَمِيرَامُوثُ وَيَحِيئِيلُ وَمَتَّثْيَا وَأَلِيآبُ وَبَنَايَا وَعُوِبِيدُ أَدُومَ وَيَعِيئِيلُ يَعْزِفُونَ عَلَى الرَّبَابِ وَالأَعْوَادِ، أَمَّا آسَافُ فَكَانَ يَعْزِفُ عَلَى الصُّنُوجِ. | ٥ 5 |
These Levites were Asaph the leader, and second to him Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed Edom, and Jeiel. These were to play with stringed instruments and with harps. Asaph was to sound the cymbals, sounding loudly.
| فِي حِينِ كَانَ بَنَايَا وَيَحْزِيئِيلُ الْكَاهِنَانِ يَنْفُخَانِ بِالأَبْوَاقِ دَائِماً أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ. | ٦ 6 |
Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests were to blow the trumpets regularly, before the ark of the covenant of God.
| وَكَانَتْ هَذِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ يُسَبَّحُ فِيهَا الرَّبُّ بِالْغِنَاءِ (فِي الْخَيْمَةِ) وَقَدْ عَهِدَ دَاوُدُ بِذَلِكَ إِلى آسَافَ وَرِفَاقِهِ: | ٧ 7 |
Then on that day David first appointed Asaph and his brothers to sing this song of thanksgiving to Yahweh.
| قَدِّمُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ؛ ادْعُوا بِاسْمِهِ. عَرِّفُوا بِأَفْعَالِهِ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ. | ٨ 8 |
Give thanks to Yahweh, call on his name; make known his deeds among the nations.
| غَنُّوا لَهُ؛ اشْدُوا لَهُ؛ حَدِّثُوا بِكُلِّ عَجَائِبِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
Sing to him, sing praises to him; speak of all his marvelous deeds.
| تَبَاهَوْا بِاسْمِهِ القُدُّوسِ، لِتَفْرَحْ قُلُوبُ طَالِبِي الرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
Boast in his holy name; let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
| اطْلُبُوا الرَّبَّ وَقُوَّتَهُ؛ الْتَمِسُوا وَجْهَهُ دَائِماً. | ١١ 11 |
Seek Yahweh and his strength; seek his presence continually.
| اذْكُرُوا عَجَائِبَهُ الَّتِي صَنَعَ، مُعْجِزَاتِهِ وَأَحْكَامَهُ الَّتِي نَطَقَ بِها | ١٢ 12 |
Recall the marvelous things he has done, his miracles and the decrees from his mouth,
| يَا ذُرِّيَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَبْدِهِ، يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ الَّذِينَ اخْتَارَهُمْ | ١٣ 13 |
you descendants of Israel his servant, you people of Jacob, his chosen ones.
| هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، أَحْكَامُهُ تَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا | ١٤ 14 |
He is Yahweh, our God. His decrees are on all the earth.
| لَمْ يَنْسَ عَهْدَهُ قَطُّ وَلا وَعْدَهُ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ إِلَى أَلْفِ جِيلٍ، | ١٥ 15 |
Keep his covenant in mind forever, the word that he commanded for a thousand generations.
| الْعَهْدَ الَّذِي أَبْرَمَهُ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ؛ وَالْقَسَمَ الَّذِي أَقْسَمَ بِهِ لإِسْحَاقَ | ١٦ 16 |
He calls to mind the covenant that he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac.
| ثُمَّ ثَبَّتَهُ لِيَعْقُوبَ فَرِيضَةً؛ وَلإِسْرَائِيلَ مِيثَاقاً أَبَدِيًّا | ١٧ 17 |
This is what he confirmed to Jacob as a statute, and to Israel as an everlasting covenant.
| قَائِلاً: لَكَ أُعْطِي أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ نَصِيبَ مِيرَاثٍ لَكُمْ | ١٨ 18 |
He said, “I will give you the land of Canaan as your share of your inheritance.”
| إذْ كَانُوا قِلَّةً بَعْدُ؛ نَفَراً ضَئِيلاً مُتَغَرِّبِينَ فِي الأَرْضِ. | ١٩ 19 |
When they were only few in number, so very few, and they were strangers in the land,
| مُتَنَقِّلِينَ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ وَمِنْ مَمْلَكَةٍ إِلَى أُخْرَى | ٢٠ 20 |
they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
| فَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَيَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَظْلِمُهُمْ بَلْ وَبَّخَ مُلُوكاً مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ | ٢١ 21 |
He did not allow anyone to oppress them; he punished kings for their sakes.
| قَائِلاً: لَا تَمَسُّوا مُسَحَائِي، وَلا تُؤْذُوا أَنْبِيَائِي. | ٢٢ 22 |
he said, “Do not touch my anointed ones, and do not harm my prophets.”
| غَنُّوا لِلرَّبِّ يَا كُلَّ شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ، خَبِّرُوا بِخَلاصِهِ مِنْ يَوْمٍ إِلَى يَوْمٍ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Sing to Yahweh, all the earth; announce his salvation day after day.
| أَعْلِنُوا مَجْدَهُ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ؛ وَعَجَائِبَهُ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ كُلِّهَا | ٢٤ 24 |
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all the nations.
| فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ عَظِيمٌ وَجَدِيرٌ بِكُلِّ حَمْدٍ. هُوَ مَرْهُوبٌ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الآلِهَةِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
For Yahweh is great and is to be praised greatly, and he is to be feared above all other gods.
| لأَنَّ كُلَّ آلِهَةِ الأُمَمِ أَصْنَامٌ، أَمَّا الرَّبُّ فَهُوَ صَانِعُ السَّمَاوَاتِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is Yahweh who made the heavens.
| الْجَلالُ وَالْبَهَاءُ أَمَامَهُ، وَالْقُوَّةُ وَالْجَمَالُ فِي مَقْدِسِهِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Splendor and majesty are in his presence. Strength and joy are in his place.
| قَدِّمُوا لِلرَّبِّ يَا جَمِيعَ الشُّعُوبِ، قَدِّمُوا لِلرَّبِّ مَجْداً وَقُوَّةً. | ٢٨ 28 |
Ascribe to Yahweh, you clans of peoples, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength!
| قَدِّمُوا لِلرَّبِّ الْمَجْدَ الْوَاجِبَ لاِسْمِهِ، أَحْضِرُوا تَقْدِمَةً وَتَعَالَوْا وَامْثُلُوا فِي حَضْرَتِهِ، اسْجُدُوا لَهُ فِي زِينَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Ascribe to Yahweh the glory his name deserves. Bring an offering and come before him. Bow down to Yahweh in the splendor of holiness.
| ارْتَعِدِي أَمَامَهُ يَا كُلَّ الأَرْضِ، هُوَذَا الأَرْضُ قَدِ اسْتَقَرَّتْ ثَابِتَةً. | ٣٠ 30 |
Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established; it cannot be shaken.
| لِتَفْرَحِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَلْتَبْتَهِجِ الأَرْضُ وَلْيُذَعْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ مَلَكَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let them say among the nations, “Yahweh reigns.”
| لِيَعِجَّ الْبَحْرُ وَكُلُّ مَا يَحْوِيهِ، لِيَتَهَلَّلِ الْحَقْلُ وَكُلُّ مَا فِيهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Let the sea roar, and that which fills it shout with joy. Let the fields be joyful, and all that is in them.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ تَتَرَنَّمُ أَشْجَارُ الْغَابَةِ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ لأَنَّهُ جَاءَ لِيَدِينَ الأَرْضَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Then let the trees in the forest shout for joy before Yahweh, for he is coming to judge the earth.
| احْمَدُوا الرَّبَّ لأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ وَرَحْمَتَهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ. | ٣٤ 34 |
Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his covenant faithfulness endures forever.
| قُولُوا: أَنْقِذْنَا يَا إِلَهَ خَلاصِنَا، وَاجْمَعْ شَمْلَنَا مِنْ بَيْنِ الأُمَمِ وَخَلِّصْنَا فَنَرْفَعَ الشُّكْرَ لاِسْمِكَ الْقُدُّوسِ وَنَفْتَخِرَ بِتَسْبِيحِكَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
Then say, “Save us, God of our salvation. Gather us together and rescue us from the other nations, so that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praises.”
| مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الأَزَلِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. فَأَجَابَ كُلُّ الشَّعْبِ: «آمِين»، وَسَبَّحُوا الرَّبَّ. | ٣٦ 36 |
May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be praised from everlasting to everlasting. All the people said, “Amen” and praised Yahweh.
| وَكَلَّفَ دَاوُدُ آسَافَ وَرِفَاقَهُ بِالْقِيَامِ بِالْخِدْمَةِ الْيَوْمِيَّةِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ، | ٣٧ 37 |
So David left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, to serve continually before the ark, as every day's work required.
| وَعَهِدَ إِلَى عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ بْنِ يَدِيثُونَ وَحُوسَةَ وَرِفَاقِهِمِ الثَّمَانِيَةِ وَالسِّتِّينَ بِحِرَاسَةِ التَّابُوتِ. | ٣٨ 38 |
Obed Edom with those sixty-eight relatives were included. Obed Edom son of Jeduthun, along with Hosah, were to be gatekeepers.
| وَأَوْكَلَ إِلَى صَادُوقَ الْكَاهِنِ وَرِفَاقِهِ الْكَهَنَةِ خِدْمَةَ مَسْكَنِ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيمِ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى مُرْتَفَعَةِ جِبْعُونَ، | ٣٩ 39 |
Zadok the priest and his fellow priests were to serve before the tabernacle of Yahweh at the high place in Gibeon.
| لِيُقَرِّبُوا عَلَى مَذْبَحِ الْمُحْرَقَةِ قَرَابِينَ لِلرَّبِّ بِصُورَةٍ دَائِمَةٍ فِي كُلِّ صَبَاحٍ وَمَسَاءٍ، كَمَا هُوَ مُدَوَّنٌ فِي شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ الَّتِي أَمَرَ بِها إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٠ 40 |
They were to offer burnt offerings to Yahweh on the altar for burnt offerings continually morning and evening, according to all that is written in the law of Yahweh, which he gave as a command to Israel.
| وَأَضَافَ إِلَيْهِمْ هَيْمَانَ وَيَدُوثُونَ وَسَائِرَ الْمُخْتَارِينَ الَّذِينَ وَرَدَتْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ لِيُمَجِّدُوا الرَّبَّ، لأَنَّ رَحْمَتَهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ. | ٤١ 41 |
Heman and Jeduthun were with them, together with the rest who were chosen by name, to give thanks to Yahweh, because his covenant faithfulness endures forever.
| فَكَانَ هَيْمَانُ وَيَدُوثُونُ يَنْفُخَانِ بِالأَبْوَاقِ وَيَعْزِفَانِ عَلَى الصُّنُوجِ وَسِوَاهَا مِنْ آلاتِ غِنَاءٍ لِلهِ، كَمَا قَامَ أَبْنَاءُ يَدُوثُونَ بِالْحِرَاسَةِ. | ٤٢ 42 |
Heman and Jeduthun were in charge of those who played trumpets, cymbals, and the other instruments for the sacred music. The sons of Jeduthun guarded the gate.
| ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ وَعَادَ دَاوُدُ لِيُبَارِكَ أَهْلَ بَيْتِهِ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Then all the people returned to their homes, and David returned to bless his own household.
