اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 105
| اِحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. ٱدْعُوا بِٱسْمِهِ. عَرِّفُوا بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ بِأَعْمَالِهِ. | ١ 1 |
O give praise to the Lord; give honour to his name, talking of his doings among the peoples.
| غَنُّوا لَهُ. رَنِّمُوا لَهُ. أَنْشِدُوا بِكُلِّ عَجَائِبِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.
| ٱفْتَخِرُوا بِٱسْمِهِ ٱلْقُدُّوسِ. لِتَفْرَحْ قُلُوبُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَلْتَمِسُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٣ 3 |
Have glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who are searching after the Lord be glad.
| اُطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ وَقُدْرَتَهُ. ٱلْتَمِسُوا وَجْهَهُ دَائِمًا. | ٤ 4 |
Let your search be for the Lord and for his strength; let your hearts ever be turned to him.
| ٱذْكُرُوا عَجَائِبَهُ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَ، آيَاتِهِ وَأَحْكَامَ فِيهِ، | ٥ 5 |
Keep in mind the great works which he has done; his wonders, and the decisions of his mouth;
| يَا ذُرِّيَّةَ إِبْراهِيمَ عَبْدِهِ، يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ مُخْتَارِيهِ. | ٦ 6 |
O you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his loved ones.
| هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَحْكَامُهُ. | ٧ 7 |
He is the Lord our God: he is judge of all the earth.
| ذَكَرَ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ عَهْدَهُ، كَلَامًا أَوْصَى بِهِ إِلَى أَلْفِ دَوْرٍ، | ٨ 8 |
He has kept his agreement in mind for ever, the word which he gave for a thousand generations;
| ٱلَّذِي عَاهَدَ بِهِ إِبْراهِيمَ، وَقَسَمَهُ لِإِسْحاقَ، | ٩ 9 |
The agreement which he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac;
| فَثَبَّتَهُ لِيَعْقُوبَ فَرِيضَةً، وَلِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا، | ١٠ 10 |
And he gave it to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an eternal agreement;
| قَائِلًا: «لَكَ أُعْطِي أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ حَبْلَ مِيرَاثِكُمْ». | ١١ 11 |
Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the measured line of your heritage:
| إِذْ كَانُوا عَدَدًا يُحْصَى، قَلِيلِينَ وَغُرَبَاءَ فِيهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
When they were still small in number, and strange in the land;
| ذَهَبُوا مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ، مِنْ مَمْلَكَةٍ إِلَى شَعْبٍ آخَرَ. | ١٣ 13 |
When they went about from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people.
| فَلَمْ يَدَعْ إِنْسَانًا يَظْلِمُهُمْ، بَلْ وَبَّخَ مُلُوكًا مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ، | ١٤ 14 |
He would not let anyone do them wrong; he even kept back kings because of them,
| قَائِلًا: «لَا تَمَسُّوا مُسَحَائِي، وَلَا تُسِيئُوا إِلَى أَنْبِيَائِي». | ١٥ 15 |
Saying, Put not your hand on those who have been marked with my holy oil, and do my prophets no wrong.
| دَعَا بِٱلْجُوعِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. كَسَرَ قِوَامَ ٱلْخُبْزِ كُلَّهُ. | ١٦ 16 |
And he took away all food from the land, so that the people were without bread.
| أَرْسَلَ أَمَامَهُمْ رَجُلًا. بِيعَ يُوسُفُ عَبْدًا. | ١٧ 17 |
He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was given as a servant for a price:
| آذَوْا بِٱلْقَيْدِ رِجْلَيْهِ. فِي ٱلْحَدِيدِ دَخَلَتْ نَفْسُهُ، | ١٨ 18 |
His feet were fixed in chains; his neck was put in iron bands;
| إِلَى وَقْتِ مَجِيءِ كَلِمَتِهِ. قَوْلُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱمْتَحَنَهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
Till the time when his word came true; he was tested by the word of the Lord.
| أَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَحَلَّهُ. أَرْسَلَ سُلْطَانُ ٱلشَّعْبِ فَأَطْلَقَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
The king sent men to take off his chains; even the ruler of the people, who let him go free.
| أَقَامَهُ سَيِّدًا عَلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَمُسَلَّطًا عَلَى كُلِّ مُلْكِهِ، | ٢١ 21 |
He made him lord of his house, and ruler over everything he had;
| لِيَأْسُرَ رُؤَسَاءَهُ حَسَبَ إِرَادَتِهِ وَيُعَلِّمَ مَشَايِخَهُ حِكْمَةً. | ٢٢ 22 |
To give his chiefs teaching at his pleasure, and so that his law-givers might get wisdom from him.
| فَجَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلُ إِلَى مِصْرَ، وَيَعْقُوبُ تَغَرَّبَ فِي أَرْضِ حَامٍ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Then Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob was living in the land of Ham.
| جَعَلَ شَعْبَهُ مُثْمِرًا جِدًّا، وَأَعَزَّهُ عَلَى أَعْدَائِهِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And his people were greatly increased, and became stronger than those who were against them.
| حَوَّلَ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِيُبْغِضُوا شَعْبَهُ، لِيَحْتَالُوا عَلَى عَبِيدِهِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Their hearts were turned to hate against his people, so that they made secret designs against them.
| أَرْسَلَ مُوسَى عَبْدَهُ وَهارُونَ ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَارَهُ. | ٢٦ 26 |
He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, the man of his selection.
| أَقَامَا بَيْنَهُمْ كَلَامَ آيَاتِهِ، وَعَجَائِبَ فِي أَرْضِ حَامٍ. | ٢٧ 27 |
He let his signs be seen among the people, and his wonders in the land of Ham.
| أَرْسَلَ ظُلْمَةً فَأَظْلَمَتْ، وَلَمْ يَعْصَوْا كَلَامَهُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
He sent black night and made it dark; and they did not go against his word.
| حَوَّلَ مِيَاهَهُمْ إِلَى دَمٍ وَقَتَلَ أَسْمَاكَهُمْ. | ٢٩ 29 |
At his word their waters were turned to blood, and he sent death on all their fish.
| أَفَاضَتْ أَرْضُهُمْ ضَفَادِعَ حَتَّى فِي مَخَادِعِ مُلُوكِهِمْ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Their land was full of frogs, even in the rooms of the king.
| أَمَرَ فَجَاءَ ٱلذُّبَّانُ وَٱلْبَعُوضُ فِي كُلِّ تُخُومِهِمْ. | ٣١ 31 |
He gave the word, and there came the dog-fly, and insects over all the land.
| جَعَلَ أَمْطَارَهُمْ بَرَدًا وَنَارًا مُلْتَهِبَةً فِي أَرْضِهِمْ. | ٣٢ 32 |
He gave them ice for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
| ضَرَبَ كُرُومَهُمْ وَتِينَهُمْ، وَكَسَّرَ كُلَّ أَشْجَارِ تُخُومِهِمْ. | ٣٣ 33 |
He gave their vines and their fig-trees to destruction, and the trees of their land were broken down.
| أَمَرَ فَجَاءَ ٱلْجَرَادُ وَغَوْغَاءُ بِلَا عَدَدٍ، | ٣٤ 34 |
At his word the locusts came, and young locusts more than might be numbered,
| فَأَكَلَ كُلَّ عُشْبٍ فِي بِلَادِهِمْ، وَأَكَلَ أَثْمَارَ أَرْضِهِمْ. | ٣٥ 35 |
And put an end to all the plants of their land, taking all the fruit of the earth for food.
| قَتَلَ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ، أَوَائِلَ كُلِّ قُوَّتِهِمْ. | ٣٦ 36 |
He put to death the first child of every family in the land, the first-fruits of their strength.
| فَأَخْرَجَهُمْ بِفِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي أَسْبَاطِهِمْ عَاثِرٌ. | ٣٧ 37 |
He took his people out with silver and gold: there was not one feeble person among them.
| فَرِحَتْ مِصْرُ بِخُرُوجِهِمْ، لِأَنَّ رُعْبَهُمْ سَقَطَ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٣٨ 38 |
Egypt was glad when they went; for the fear of them had come down on them.
| بَسَطَ سَحَابًا سَجْفًا، وَنَارًا لِتُضِيءَ ٱللَّيْلَ. | ٣٩ 39 |
A cloud was stretched over them for a cover; and he sent fire to give light in the night.
| سَأَلُوا فَأَتَاهُمْ بِٱلسَّلْوَى، وَخُبْزَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَشْبَعَهُمْ. | ٤٠ 40 |
At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.
| شَقَّ ٱلصَّخْرَةَ فَٱنْفَجَرَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ. جَرَتْ فِي ٱلْيَابِسَةِ نَهْرًا. | ٤١ 41 |
His hand made the rock open, and the waters came streaming out; they went down through the dry places like a river.
| لِأَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةَ قُدْسِهِ مَعَ إِبْراهِيمَ عَبْدِهِ، | ٤٢ 42 |
For he kept in mind his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
| فَأَخْرَجَ شَعْبَهُ بِٱبْتِهَاجٍ، وَمُخْتَارِيهِ بِتَرَنُّمٍ. | ٤٣ 43 |
And he took his people out with joy, the men of his selection with glad cries:
| وَأَعْطَاهُمْ أَرَاضِيَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَتَعَبَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَرِثُوهُ، | ٤٤ 44 |
And gave them the lands of the nations; and they took the work of the peoples for a heritage;
| لِكَيْ يَحْفَظُوا فَرَائِضَهُ وَيُطِيعُوا شَرَائِعَهُ. هَلِّلُويَا. | ٤٥ 45 |
So that they might keep his orders, and be true to his laws. Give praise to the Lord.
