المَزامِير 115

١ 1 لَا تُمَجِّدْنَا يَا رَبُّ، بَلْ مَجِّدِ اسْمَكَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ رَحْمَتِكَ وَحَقِّكَ.

Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name bring honor, for your covenant faithfulness and for your trustworthiness.

٢ 2 لِمَاذَا تَسْأَلُنَا الأُمَمُ: أَيْنَ هُوَ إِلَهُكُمْ؟

Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”

٣ 3 إِنَّ إِلَهَنَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ. كُلَّ مَا شَاءَ صَنَعَ.

Our God is in heaven; he does whatever he pleases.

٤ 4 أَمَّا أَوْثَانُهُمْ فَهِيَ فِضَّةٌ وَذَهَبٌ مِنْ صُنْعِ أَيْدِي الْبَشَرِ.

The nations' idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

٥ 5 لَهَا أَفْوَاهٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَنْطِقُ. لَهَا عُيُونٌ وَلَكِنَّهَا لَا تُبْصِرُ.

Those idols have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;

٦ 6 وَآذَانٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَسْمَعُ. وَأُنُوفٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَشُمُّ.

they have ears, but they do not hear; they have noses, but they do not smell.

٧ 7 لَهَا أَيْدٍ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَلْمَسُ. وَأَرْجُلٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَمْشِي، وَلَا تُصْدِرُ مِنْ حَنَاجِرِهَا صَوْتاً.

Those idols have hands, but do not feel; they have feet, but they cannot walk; nor do they speak from their mouths.

٨ 8 مِثْلَهَا يَصِيرُ صَانِعُوهَا وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْهَا.

Those who make them are like them, as is everyone who trusts in them.

٩ 9 اتَّكِلُوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، هُوَ عَوْنُكُمْ وَتُرْسُكُمْ.

Israel, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.

١٠ 10 اتَّكِلُوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ يَا بَيْتَ هَارُونَ: هُوَ عَوْنُكُمْ وَتُرْسُكُمْ.

House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.

١١ 11 اتَّكِلُوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ يَا خَائِفِي الرَّبِّ: هُوَ عَوْنُكُمْ وَتُرْسُكُمْ.

You who honor Yahweh, trust in him; he is your help and shield.

١٢ 12 الرَّبُّ ذَكَرَنَا وَيُبَارِكُنَا. يُبَارِكُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يُبَارِكُ الرَّبُّ آلَ هَارُونَ.

Yahweh takes notice of us and will bless us; he will bless the family of Israel; he will bless the family of Aaron.

١٣ 13 يُبَارِكُ كُلَّ مَنْ يَتَّقِيهِ، صِغَارَهُمْ وَكِبَارَهُمْ.

He will bless those who honor him, both young and old.

١٤ 14 لِيَزِدِ الرَّبُّ بَرَكَتَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَعَلَى أَوْلادِكُمْ.

May Yahweh increase your numbers more and more, yours and your descendants'.

١٥ 15 لِيُبَارِكْكُمُ الرَّبُّ، خَالِقُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ.

May you be blessed by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

١٦ 16 السَّمَاوَاتُ لِلرَّبِّ وَحْدَهُ، أَمَّا الأَرْضُ فَوَهَبَهَا لِبَنِي آدَمَ.

The heavens belong to Yahweh; but the earth he has given to mankind.

١٧ 17 لَا يُسَبِّحُ الأَمْوَاتُ الرَّبَّ، وَلَا الهَاجِعُونَ فِي الْقُبُورِ.

The dead do not praise Yahweh, nor do any who go down into silence;

١٨ 18 أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنُبَارِكُ الرَّبَّ مِنَ الآنَ وَإِلَى الدَّهْرِ. هَلِّلُويَا.

But we will bless Yahweh now and forevermore. Praise Yahweh.
