اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 132

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ دَاوُدَ، كُلَّ ذُلِّهِ.

A song of degrees. Lord, remember Dauid with all his affliction.

٢ 2 كَيْفَ حَلَفَ لِلرَّبِّ، نَذَرَ لِعَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ:

Who sware vnto the Lord, and vowed vnto the mightie God of Iaakob, saying,

٣ 3 «لَا أَدْخُلُ خَيْمَةَ بَيْتِي. لَا أَصْعَدُ عَلَى سَرِيرِ فِرَاشِي.

I will not enter into the tabernacle of mine house, nor come vpon my pallet or bed,

٤ 4 لَا أُعْطِي وَسَنًا لِعَيْنَيَّ، وَلَا نَوْمًا لِأَجْفَانِي،

Nor suffer mine eyes to sleepe, nor mine eye lids to slumber,

٥ 5 أَوْ أَجِدَ مَقَامًا لِلرَّبِّ، مَسْكَنًا لِعَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ».

Vntill I finde out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mightie God of Iaakob.

٦ 6 هُوَذَا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ. وَجَدْنَاهُ فِي حُقُولِ ٱلْوَعْرِ.

Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah, and found it in the fieldes of the forest.

٧ 7 «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى مَسَاكِنِهِ. لِنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ».

We will enter into his Tabernacles, and worship before his footestoole.

٨ 8 قُمْ يَارَبُّ إِلَى رَاحَتِكَ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزِّكَ.

Arise, O Lord, to come into thy rest, thou, and the Arke of thy strength.

٩ 9 كَهَنَتُكَ يَلْبَسُونَ ٱلْبِرَّ، وَأَتْقِيَاؤُكَ يَهْتِفُونَ.

Let thy Priests be clothed with righteousnesse, and let thy Saints reioyce.

١٠ 10 مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرُدَّ وَجْهَ مَسِيحِكَ.

For thy seruant Dauids sake refuse not the face of thine Anointed.

١١ 11 أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ بِٱلْحَقِّ لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أَجْعَلُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ.

The Lord hath sworne in trueth vnto Dauid, and he wil not shrinke from it, saying, Of the fruite of thy body will I set vpon thy throne.

١٢ 12 إِنْ حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي ٱلَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، فَبَنُوهُمْ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَجْلِسُونَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّكَ».

If thy sonnes keepe my couenant, and my testimonies, that I shall teach them, their sonnes also shall sit vpon thy throne for euer.

١٣ 13 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَ صِهْيَوْنَ. ٱشْتَهَاهَا مَسْكَنًا لَهُ:

For the Lord hath chosen Zion, and loued to dwell in it, saying,

١٤ 14 «هَذِهِ هِيَ رَاحَتِي إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. هَهُنَا أَسْكُنُ لِأَنِّي ٱشْتَهَيْتُهَا.

This is my rest for euer: here will I dwell, for I haue a delite therein.

١٥ 15 طَعَامَهَا أُبَارِكُ بَرَكَةً. مَسَاكِينَهَا أُشْبِعُ خُبْزًا.

I will surely blesse her vitailes, and will satisfie her poore with bread,

١٦ 16 كَهَنَتَهَا أُلْبِسُ خَلَاصًا.

And will clothe her Priests with saluation, and her Saints shall shoute for ioye.

١٧ 17 هُنَاكَ أُنْبِتُ قَرْنًا لِدَاوُدَ. رَتَّبْتُ سِرَاجًا لِمَسِيحِي.

There will I make the horne of Dauid to bud: for I haue ordeined a light for mine Anoynted.

١٨ 18 أَعْدَاءَهُ أُلْبِسُ خِزْيًا، وَعَلَيْهِ يُزْهِرُ إِكْلِيلُهُ».

His enemies will I clothe with shame, but on him his crowne shall florish.
