اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 45

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. عَلَى «ٱلسُّوسَنِّ». لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. قَصِيدَةٌ. تَرْنِيمَةُ مَحَبَّةٍ فَاضَ قَلْبِي بِكَلَامٍ صَالِحٍ. مُتَكَلِّمٌ أَنَا بِإِنْشَائِي لِلْمَلِكِ. لِسَانِي قَلَمُ كَاتِبٍ مَاهِرٍ.

For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim; [a Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter: I speak the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

٢ 2 أَنْتَ أَبْرَعُ جَمَالًا مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ. ٱنْسَكَبَتِ ٱلنِّعْمَةُ عَلَى شَفَتَيْكَ، لِذَلِكَ بَارَكَكَ ٱللهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

٣ 3 تَقَلَّدْ سَيْفَكَ عَلَى فَخْذِكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَبَّارُ، جَلَالَكَ وَبَهَاءَكَ.

Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.

٤ 4 وَبِجَلَالِكَ ٱقْتَحِمِ. ٱرْكَبْ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلدَّعَةِ وَٱلْبِرِّ، فَتُرِيَكَ يَمِينُكَ مَخَاوِفَ.

And in thy majesty ride on prosperously, because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

٥ 5 نَبْلُكَ ٱلْمَسْنُونَةُ فِي قَلْبِ أَعْدَاءِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. شُعُوبٌ تَحْتَكَ يَسْقُطُونَ.

Thine arrows are sharp; the peoples fall under thee; [they are] in the heart of the king’s enemies.

٦ 6 كُرْسِيُّكَ يَا ٱللهُ إِلَى دَهْرِ ٱلدُّهُورِ. قَضِيبُ ٱسْتِقَامَةٍ قَضِيبُ مُلْكِكَ.

Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

٧ 7 أَحْبَبْتَ ٱلْبِرَّ وَأَبْغَضْتَ ٱلْإِثْمَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ مَسَحَكَ ٱللهُ إِلَهُكَ بِدُهْنِ ٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ رُفَقَائِكَ.

Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

٨ 8 كُلُّ ثِيَابِكَ مُرٌّ وَعُودٌ وَسَلِيخَةٌ. مِنْ قُصُورِ ٱلْعَاجِ سَرَّتْكَ ٱلْأَوْتَارُ.

All thy garments [smell of] myrrh, and aloes, [and] cassia; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.

٩ 9 بَنَاتُ مُلُوكٍ بَيْنَ حَظِيَّاتِكَ. جُعِلَتِ ٱلْمَلِكَةُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ بِذَهَبِ أُوفِيرٍ.

Kings’ daughters are among thy honourable women: at thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

١٠ 10 اِسْمَعِي يَا بِنْتُ وَٱنْظُرِي، وَأَمِيلِي أُذُنَكِ، وَٱنْسَيْ شَعْبَكِ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكِ،

Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;

١١ 11 فَيَشْتَهِيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ حُسْنَكِ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ سَيِّدُكِ فَٱسْجُدِي لَهُ.

So shall the king desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.

١٢ 12 وَبِنْتُ صُورٍ أَغْنَى ٱلشُّعُوبِ تَتَرَضَّى وَجْهَكِ بِهَدِيَّةٍ.

And the daughter of Tyre [shall be there] with a gift; even the rich among the people shall entreat thy favour.

١٣ 13 كُلُّهَا مَجْدٌ ٱبْنَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي خِدْرِهَا. مَنْسُوجَةٌ بِذَهَبٍ مَلَابِسُهَا.

The king’s daughter within [the palace] is all glorious: her clothing is inwrought with gold.

١٤ 14 بِمَلَابِسَ مُطَرَّزَةٍ تُحْضَرُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. في إِثْرِهَا عَذَارَى صَاحِبَاتُهَا. مُقَدَّمَاتٌ إِلَيْكَ.

She shall be led unto the king in broidered work: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.

١٥ 15 يُحْضَرْنَ بِفَرَحٍ وَٱبْتِهَاجٍ. يَدْخُلْنَ إِلَى قَصْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led: they shall enter into the king’s palace.

١٦ 16 عِوَضًا عَنْ آبَائِكَ يَكُونُ بَنُوكَ، تُقِيمُهُمْ رُؤَسَاءَ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.

١٧ 17 أَذْكُرُ ٱسْمَكَ فِي كُلِّ دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ تَحْمَدُكَ ٱلشُّعُوبُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْأَبَدِ.

I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the peoples give thee thanks for ever and ever.
