اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 107
| اِحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ. | ١ 1 |
Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his mercy [endures] for ever.
| لِيَقُلْ مَفْدِيُّو ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱلَّذِينَ فَدَاهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ، | ٢ 2 |
Let them say [so] who have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
| وَمِنَ ٱلْبُلْدَانِ جَمَعَهُمْ، مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَمِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ، مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَمِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ. | ٣ 3 |
and gathered them out of the countries, from the east, and west, and north, and south.
| تَاهُوا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي قَفْرٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ. لَمْ يَجِدُوا مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ. | ٤ 4 |
They wandered in the wilderness in a dry land; they found no way to a city of habitation.
| جِيَاعٌ عِطَاشٌ أَيْضًا أَعْيَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ فِيهِمْ. | ٥ 5 |
Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
| فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ، | ٦ 6 |
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
| وَهَدَاهُمْ طَرِيقًا مُسْتَقِيمًا لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى مَدِينَةِ سَكَنٍ. | ٧ 7 |
And he guided them into a straight path, that they might go to a city of habitation.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٨ 8 |
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
| لِأَنَّهُ أَشْبَعَ نَفْسًا مُشْتَهِيَةً وَمَلَأَ نَفْسًا جَائِعَةً خَيْرًا، | ٩ 9 |
For he satisfies the empty soul, and fills the hungry [soul] with good things,
| ٱلْجُلُوسَ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، مُوثَقِينَ بِٱلذُّلِّ وَٱلْحَدِيدِ. | ١٠ 10 |
[even] them that sit in darkness and the shadow of death, fettered in poverty and iron;
| لِأَنَّهُمْ عَصَوْا كَلَامَ ٱللهِ، وَأَهَانُوا مَشُورَةَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ. | ١١ 11 |
because they rebelled against the words of God, and provoked the counsel of the Most High.
| فَأَذَلَّ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِتَعَبٍ. عَثَرُوا وَلَا مَعِينَ. | ١٢ 12 |
So their heart was brought low with troubles; they were weak, and there was no helper.
| ثُمَّ صَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction, and he saved them out of their distresses.
| أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَقَطَّعَ قُيُودَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
And he brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bonds asunder.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies, and his wonders to the children of men.
| لِأَنَّهُ كَسَّرَ مَصَارِيعَ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَطَّعَ عَوَارِضَ حَدِيدٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
For he broke to pieces the brazen gates, and crushed the iron bars.
| وَٱلْجُهَّالُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ مَعْصِيَتِهِمْ، وَمِنْ آثَامِهِمْ يُذَلُّونَ. | ١٧ 17 |
He helped them out of the way of their iniquity; for they were brought low because of their iniquities.
| كَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ كُلَّ طَعَامٍ، وَٱقْتَرَبُوا إِلَى أَبْوَابِ ٱلْمَوْتِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Their soul abhorred all meat; and they drew near to the gates of death.
| فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction, and he saved them out of their distresses.
| أَرْسَلَ كَلِمَتَهُ فَشَفَاهُمْ، وَنَجَّاهُمْ مِنْ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them out of their destructions.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
| وَلْيَذْبَحُوا لَهُ ذَبَائِحَ ٱلْحَمْدِ، وَلْيَعُدُّوا أَعْمَالَهُ بِتَرَنُّمٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And let them offer to him the sacrifice of praise, and proclaim this works with exultation.
| اَلنَّازِلُونَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلسُّفُنِ، ٱلْعَامِلُونَ عَمَلًا فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ، | ٢٣ 23 |
They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in many waters;
| هُمْ رَأَوْا أَعْمَالَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَجَائِبَهُ فِي ٱلْعُمْقِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
these [men] have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
| أَمَرَ فَأَهَاجَ رِيحًا عَاصِفَةً فَرَفَعَتْ أَمْوَاجَهُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
He speaks, and the stormy wind arises, and its waves are lifted up.
| يَصْعَدُونَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، يَهْبِطُونَ إِلَى ٱلْأَعْمَاقِ. ذَابَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ بِٱلشَّقَاءِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They go up to the heavens, and go down to the depths; their soul melts because of troubles.
| يَتَمَايَلُونَ وَيَتَرَنَّحُونَ مِثْلَ ٱلسَّكْرَانِ، وَكُلُّ حِكْمَتِهِمِ ٱبْتُلِعَتْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
They are troubled, they stagger as a drunkard, and all their wisdom is swallowed up.
| فَيَصْرُخُونَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، وَمِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ يُخَلِّصُهُمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Then they cry to the Lord in their affliction, and he brings them out of their distresses.
| يُهْدِئُ ٱلْعَاصِفَةَ فَتَسْكُنُ، وَتَسْكُتُ أَمْوَاجُهَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
And he commands the storm, and it is calmed into a gentle breeze, and its waves are still.
| فَيَفْرَحُونَ لِأَنَّهُمْ هَدَأُوا، فَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَرْفَإِ ٱلَّذِي يُرِيدُونَهُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And they are glad, because they are quiet; and he guides them to their desire haven.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
| وَلْيَرْفَعُوهُ فِي مَجْمَعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَلْيُسَبِّحُوهُ فِي مَجْلِسِ ٱلْمَشَايِخِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Let them exalt him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَنْهَارَ قِفَارًا، وَمَجَارِيَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ مَعْطَشَةً، | ٣٣ 33 |
He turns rivers into a desert, and streams of water into a dry land;
| وَٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْمُثْمِرَةَ سَبِخَةً مِنْ شَرِّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا. | ٣٤ 34 |
a fruitful land into saltness, for the wickedness of them that dwell in it.
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَفْرَ غَدِيرَ مِيَاهٍ، وَأَرْضًا يَبَسًا يَنَابِيعَ مِيَاهٍ. | ٣٥ 35 |
He turns a wilderness into pools of water, and a dry land into streams of water.
| وَيُسْكِنُ هُنَاكَ ٱلْجِيَاعَ فَيُهَيِّئُونَ مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ. | ٣٦ 36 |
And there he causes the hungry to dwell, and they establish for themselves cities of habitation.
| وَيَزْرَعُونَ حُقُولًا وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا، فَتَصْنَعُ ثَمَرَ غَلَّةٍ. | ٣٧ 37 |
And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, and they yield fruit of increase.
| وَيُبَارِكُهُمْ فَيَكْثُرُونَ جِدًّا، وَلَا يُقَلِّلُ بَهَائِمَهُمْ. | ٣٨ 38 |
And he blesses them, and they multiply exceedingly, and he diminishes not the number of their cattle.
| ثُمَّ يَقِلُّونَ وَيَنْحَنُونَ مِنْ ضَغْطِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلْحُزْنِ. | ٣٩ 39 |
Again they become few, and are brought low, by the pressure of evils and pain.
| يَسْكُبُ هَوَانًا عَلَى رُؤَسَاءَ، وَيُضِلُّهُمْ فِي تِيهٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ، | ٤٠ 40 |
Contempt is poured upon their princes, and he causes them to wander in a desert and trackless land.
| وَيُعَلِّي ٱلْمِسْكِينَ مِنَ ٱلذُّلِّ، وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَبَائِلَ مِثْلَ قُطْعَانِ ٱلْغَنَمِ. | ٤١ 41 |
But he helps the poor out of poverty, and makes [him] families as a flock.
| يَرَى ذَلِكَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ فَيَفْرَحُونَ، وَكُلُّ إِثْمٍ يَسُدُّ فَاهُ. | ٤٢ 42 |
The upright shall see and rejoice; and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
| مَنْ كَانَ حَكِيمًا يَحْفَظُ هَذَا، وَيَتَعَقَّلُ مَرَاحِمَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Who is wise, and will observe these things, and understand the mercies of the Lord?
