اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 72

١ 1 لِسُلَيْمَانَ اَللَّهُمَّ، أَعْطِ أَحْكَامَكَ لِلْمَلِكِ، وَبِرَّكَ لِٱبْنِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

Of Solomon. Give the king your authority, O God, and your righteousness to the king's son.

٢ 2 يَدِينُ شَعْبَكَ بِٱلْعَدْلِ، وَمَسَاكِينَكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ.

May he be a judge of your people in righteousness, and make true decisions for the poor.

٣ 3 تَحْمِلُ ٱلْجِبَالُ سَلَامًا لِلشَّعْبِ، وَٱلْآكَامُ بِٱلْبِرِّ.

May the mountains give peace to the people, and the hills righteousness.

٤ 4 يَقْضِي لِمَسَاكِينِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. يُخَلِّصُ بَنِي ٱلْبَائِسِينَ، وَيَسْحَقُ ٱلظَّالِمَ.

May he be a judge of the poor among the people, may he give salvation to the children of those who are in need; by him let the violent be crushed.

٥ 5 يَخْشَوْنَكَ مَا دَامَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ، وَقُدَّامَ ٱلْقَمَرِ إِلَى دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ.

May his life go on as long as the sun and moon, through all generations.

٦ 6 يَنْزِلُ مِثْلَ ٱلْمَطَرِ عَلَى ٱلْجُزَازِ، وَمِثْلَ ٱلْغُيُوثِ ٱلذَّارِفَةِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

May he come down like rain on the cut grass; like showers watering the earth.

٧ 7 يُشْرِقُ فِي أَيَّامِهِ ٱلصِّدِّيقُ، وَكَثْرَةُ ٱلسَّلَامِ إِلَى أَنْ يَضْمَحِلَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ.

In his days may the upright do well, living in peace as long as there is a moon in heaven.

٨ 8 وَيَمْلِكُ مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَمِنَ ٱلنَّهْرِ إِلَى أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Let his kingdom be from sea to sea, from the River to the ends of the earth.

٩ 9 أَمَامَهُ تَجْثُو أَهْلُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَأَعْدَاؤُهُ يَلْحَسُونَ ٱلتُّرَابَ.

Let those who are against him go down before him; and let his haters be low in the dust.

١٠ 10 مُلُوكُ تَرْشِيشَ وَٱلْجَزَائِرِ يُرْسِلُونَ تَقْدِمَةً. مُلُوكُ شَبَا وَسَبَإٍ يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدِيَّةً.

Let the kings of Tarshish and of the islands come back with offerings; let the kings of Sheba and Seba give of their stores.

١١ 11 وَيَسْجُدُ لَهُ كُلُّ ٱلْمُلُوكِ. كُلُّ ٱلْأُمَمِ تَتَعَبَّدُ لَهُ.

Yes, let all kings go down before him; let all nations be his servants.

١٢ 12 لِأَنَّهُ يُنَجِّي ٱلْفَقِيرَ ٱلْمُسْتَغِيثَ، وَٱلْمِسْكِينَ إِذْ لَا مُعِينَ لَهُ.

For he will be a saviour to the poor in answer to his cry; and to him who is in need, without a helper.

١٣ 13 يُشْفِقُ عَلَى ٱلْمِسْكِينِ وَٱلْبَائِسِ، وَيُخَلِّصُ أَنْفُسَ ٱلْفُقَرَاءِ.

He will have pity on the poor, and be the saviour of those who are in need.

١٤ 14 مِنَ ٱلظُّلْمِ وَٱلْخَطْفِ يَفْدِي أَنْفُسَهُمْ، وَيُكْرَمُ دَمُهُمْ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ.

He will keep their souls free from evil designs and violent attacks; and their blood will be of value in his eyes.

١٥ 15 وَيَعِيشُ وَيُعْطِيهِ مِنْ ذَهَبِ شَبَا. وَيُصَلِّي لِأَجْلِهِ دَائِمًا. ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ يُبَارِكُهُ.

May he have long life, and may gold from Sheba be given to him: may prayers be made for him at all times; may blessings be on him every day.

١٦ 16 تَكُونُ حُفْنَةُ بُرٍّ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ فِي رُؤُوسِ ٱلْجِبَالِ. تَتَمَايَلُ مِثْلَ لُبْنَانَ ثَمَرَتُهَا، وَيُزْهِرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ مِثْلَ عُشْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

May there be wide-stretching fields of grain in the land, shaking on the top of the mountains, full of fruit like Lebanon: may its stems be unnumbered like the grass of the earth.

١٧ 17 يَكُونُ ٱسْمُهُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. قُدَّامَ ٱلشَّمْسِ يَمْتَدُّ ٱسْمُهُ، وَيَتَبَارَكُونَ بِهِ. كُلُّ أُمَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ يُطَوِّبُونَهُ.

May his name go on for ever, as long as the sun: may men be blessing themselves by him; may all nations be blessing his name.

١٨ 18 مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱللهُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلصَّانِعُ ٱلْعَجَائِبَ وَحْدَهُ.

Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel, the only doer of wonders.

١٩ 19 وَمُبَارَكٌ ٱسْمُ مَجْدِهِ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ، وَلْتَمْتَلِئِ ٱلْأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا مِنْ مَجْدِهِ. آمِينَ ثُمَّ آمِينَ.

Praise to the glory of his noble name for ever; let all the earth be full of his glory. So be it, So be it.

٢٠ 20 تَمَّتْ صَلَوَاتُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ يَسَّى

The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.
