اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 48

١ 1 تَسْبِيحَةٌ. مَزْمُورٌ لِبَنِي قُورَحَ عَظِيمٌ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَحَمِيدٌ جِدًّا فِي مَدِينَةِ إِلَهِنَا، جَبَلِ قُدْسِهِ.

A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain,

٢ 2 جَمِيلُ ٱلِٱرْتِفَاعِ، فَرَحُ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ. فَرَحُ أَقَاصِي ٱلشِّمَالِ، مَدِينَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ.

Fair in situation, the joy of the whole earth; even mount Zion, the uttermost parts of the north, the city of the great King.

٣ 3 ٱللهُ فِي قُصُورِهَا يُعْرَفُ مَلْجَأً.

God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.

٤ 4 لِأَنَّهُ هُوَذَا ٱلْمُلُوكُ ٱجْتَمَعُوا. مَضَوْا جَمِيعًا.

For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.

٥ 5 لَمَّا رَأَوْا بُهِتُوا، ٱرْتَاعُوا، فَرُّوا.

They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.

٦ 6 أَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلرِّعْدَةُ هُنَاكَ، وَٱلْمَخَاضُ كَوَالِدَةٍ.

Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.

٧ 7 بِرِيحٍ شَرْقِيَّةٍ تَكْسِرُ سُفُنَ تَرْشِيشَ.

With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

٨ 8 كَمَا سَمِعْنَا هَكَذَا رَأَيْنَا فِي مَدِينَةِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، فِي مَدِينَةِ إِلَهِنَا. ٱللهُ يُثَبِّتُهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. سِلَاهْ.

As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God — God establish it for ever. (Selah)

٩ 9 ذَكَرْنَا يَا ٱللهُ رَحْمَتَكَ فِي وَسَطِ هَيْكَلِكَ.

We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Thy temple.

١٠ 10 نَظِيرُ ٱسْمِكَ يَا ٱللهُ تَسْبِيحُكَ إِلَى أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. يَمِينُكَ مَلآنَةٌ بِرًّا.

As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.

١١ 11 يَفْرَحُ جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ، تَبْتَهِجُ بَنَاتُ يَهُوذَا مِنْ أَجْلِ أَحْكَامِكَ.

Let mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Thy judgments.

١٢ 12 طُوفُوا بِصِهْيَوْنَ، وَدُورُوا حَوْلَهَا. عُدُّوا أَبْرَاجَهَا.

Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.

١٣ 13 ضَعُوا قُلُوبَكُمْ عَلَى مَتَارِسِهَا. تَأَمَّلُوا قُصُورَهَا لِكَيْ تُحَدِّثُوا بِهَا جِيلًا آخَرَ.

Mark ye well her ramparts, traverse her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

١٤ 14 لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ هَذَا هُوَ إِلَهُنَا إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْأَبَدِ. هُوَ يَهْدِينَا حَتَّى إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ.

For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.
