اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 107
| اِحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ. | ١ 1 |
Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, and his covenant faithfulness endures forever.
| لِيَقُلْ مَفْدِيُّو ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱلَّذِينَ فَدَاهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ، | ٢ 2 |
Let the redeemed of Yahweh speak out, those he has rescued from the hand of the enemy.
| وَمِنَ ٱلْبُلْدَانِ جَمَعَهُمْ، مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَمِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ، مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَمِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ. | ٣ 3 |
He has gathered them out of foreign lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
| تَاهُوا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي قَفْرٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ. لَمْ يَجِدُوا مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ. | ٤ 4 |
They wandered in the wilderness on a desert road and found no city in which to live.
| جِيَاعٌ عِطَاشٌ أَيْضًا أَعْيَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ فِيهِمْ. | ٥ 5 |
Because they were hungry and thirsty, they fainted from exhaustion.
| فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ، | ٦ 6 |
Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he rescued them out of their distress.
| وَهَدَاهُمْ طَرِيقًا مُسْتَقِيمًا لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى مَدِينَةِ سَكَنٍ. | ٧ 7 |
He led them by a direct path so that they would go to a city to live in.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٨ 8 |
Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!
| لِأَنَّهُ أَشْبَعَ نَفْسًا مُشْتَهِيَةً وَمَلَأَ نَفْسًا جَائِعَةً خَيْرًا، | ٩ 9 |
For he satisfies the longings of those who are thirsty, and the desires of those who are hungry he fills up with good things.
| ٱلْجُلُوسَ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، مُوثَقِينَ بِٱلذُّلِّ وَٱلْحَدِيدِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Some sat in darkness and in gloom, prisoners in affliction and chains.
| لِأَنَّهُمْ عَصَوْا كَلَامَ ٱللهِ، وَأَهَانُوا مَشُورَةَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ. | ١١ 11 |
This was because they had rebelled against God's word and rejected the instruction of the Most High.
| فَأَذَلَّ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِتَعَبٍ. عَثَرُوا وَلَا مَعِينَ. | ١٢ 12 |
He humbled their hearts through hardship; they stumbled and there was no one to help them up.
| ثُمَّ صَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.
| أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَقَطَّعَ قُيُودَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
He brought them out of darkness and gloom and broke their bonds.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!
| لِأَنَّهُ كَسَّرَ مَصَارِيعَ نُحَاسٍ، وَقَطَّعَ عَوَارِضَ حَدِيدٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
For he has broken the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.
| وَٱلْجُهَّالُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ مَعْصِيَتِهِمْ، وَمِنْ آثَامِهِمْ يُذَلُّونَ. | ١٧ 17 |
They were foolish in their rebellious ways and afflicted because of their sins.
| كَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ كُلَّ طَعَامٍ، وَٱقْتَرَبُوا إِلَى أَبْوَابِ ٱلْمَوْتِ. | ١٨ 18 |
They lost their desire to eat any food, and they came close to the gates of death.
| فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.
| أَرْسَلَ كَلِمَتَهُ فَشَفَاهُمْ، وَنَجَّاهُمْ مِنْ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
He sent his word and healed them, and he rescued them from their destruction.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!
| وَلْيَذْبَحُوا لَهُ ذَبَائِحَ ٱلْحَمْدِ، وَلْيَعُدُّوا أَعْمَالَهُ بِتَرَنُّمٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving and proclaim his deeds in singing.
| اَلنَّازِلُونَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلسُّفُنِ، ٱلْعَامِلُونَ عَمَلًا فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ، | ٢٣ 23 |
Some travel on the sea in ships and do business overseas.
| هُمْ رَأَوْا أَعْمَالَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَجَائِبَهُ فِي ٱلْعُمْقِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
These saw the deeds of Yahweh and his wonders on the seas.
| أَمَرَ فَأَهَاجَ رِيحًا عَاصِفَةً فَرَفَعَتْ أَمْوَاجَهُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
For he commanded and aroused the windstorm that stirs up the seas.
| يَصْعَدُونَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، يَهْبِطُونَ إِلَى ٱلْأَعْمَاقِ. ذَابَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ بِٱلشَّقَاءِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They reached up to the sky; they went down to the depths. Their lives melted away in distress.
| يَتَمَايَلُونَ وَيَتَرَنَّحُونَ مِثْلَ ٱلسَّكْرَانِ، وَكُلُّ حِكْمَتِهِمِ ٱبْتُلِعَتْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
They swayed and staggered like drunkards and were at their wits' end.
| فَيَصْرُخُونَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، وَمِنْ شَدَائِدِهِمْ يُخَلِّصُهُمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Then they called out to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.
| يُهْدِئُ ٱلْعَاصِفَةَ فَتَسْكُنُ، وَتَسْكُتُ أَمْوَاجُهَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
He calmed the storm, and the waves were stilled.
| فَيَفْرَحُونَ لِأَنَّهُمْ هَدَأُوا، فَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَرْفَإِ ٱلَّذِي يُرِيدُونَهُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Then they rejoiced because the sea was calm, and he brought them to their desired harbor.
| فَلْيَحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Oh that people would praise Yahweh for his covenant faithfulness and for the amazing things he has done for humanity!
| وَلْيَرْفَعُوهُ فِي مَجْمَعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَلْيُسَبِّحُوهُ فِي مَجْلِسِ ٱلْمَشَايِخِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders.
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَنْهَارَ قِفَارًا، وَمَجَارِيَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ مَعْطَشَةً، | ٣٣ 33 |
He turns rivers into a wilderness, springs of water into dry land,
| وَٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْمُثْمِرَةَ سَبِخَةً مِنْ شَرِّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا. | ٣٤ 34 |
and a fruitful land into a barren place because of the wickedness of its people.
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَفْرَ غَدِيرَ مِيَاهٍ، وَأَرْضًا يَبَسًا يَنَابِيعَ مِيَاهٍ. | ٣٥ 35 |
He turns the wilderness into a pool of water and dry land into springs of water.
| وَيُسْكِنُ هُنَاكَ ٱلْجِيَاعَ فَيُهَيِّئُونَ مَدِينَةَ سَكَنٍ. | ٣٦ 36 |
He settles the hungry there, and they build a city to live in.
| وَيَزْرَعُونَ حُقُولًا وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا، فَتَصْنَعُ ثَمَرَ غَلَّةٍ. | ٣٧ 37 |
They build a city to plant fields in, to plant vineyards, and to bring in an abundant harvest.
| وَيُبَارِكُهُمْ فَيَكْثُرُونَ جِدًّا، وَلَا يُقَلِّلُ بَهَائِمَهُمْ. | ٣٨ 38 |
He blesses them so they are very numerous. He does not let their cattle decrease in number.
| ثُمَّ يَقِلُّونَ وَيَنْحَنُونَ مِنْ ضَغْطِ ٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلْحُزْنِ. | ٣٩ 39 |
They were diminished and brought low by painful distress and suffering.
| يَسْكُبُ هَوَانًا عَلَى رُؤَسَاءَ، وَيُضِلُّهُمْ فِي تِيهٍ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ، | ٤٠ 40 |
He pours contempt on the leaders and causes them to wander in the wilderness, where there are no roads.
| وَيُعَلِّي ٱلْمِسْكِينَ مِنَ ٱلذُّلِّ، وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلْقَبَائِلَ مِثْلَ قُطْعَانِ ٱلْغَنَمِ. | ٤١ 41 |
But he protects the needy from affliction and cares for his families like a flock.
| يَرَى ذَلِكَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ فَيَفْرَحُونَ، وَكُلُّ إِثْمٍ يَسُدُّ فَاهُ. | ٤٢ 42 |
The upright will see this and rejoice, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.
| مَنْ كَانَ حَكِيمًا يَحْفَظُ هَذَا، وَيَتَعَقَّلُ مَرَاحِمَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Whoever is wise should take note of these things and meditate on Yahweh's acts of covenant faithfulness.
