اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 89

١ 1 قَصِيدَةٌ لِأَيْثَانَ ٱلْأَزْرَاحِيِّ بِمَرَاحِمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُغَنِّي إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. لِدَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ أُخْبِرُ عَنْ حَقِّكَ بِفَمِي.

A Psalme to give instruction, of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing the mercies of the Lord for euer: with my mouth will I declare thy trueth from generation to generation.

٢ 2 لِأَنِّي قُلْتُ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ تُبْنَى. ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ تُثْبِتُ فِيهَا حَقَّكَ».

For I said, Mercie shalbe set vp for euer: thy trueth shalt thou stablish in ye very heauens.

٣ 3 «قَطَعْتُ عَهْدًا مَعَ مُخْتَارِي، حَلَفْتُ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي:

I haue made a couenant with my chosen: I haue sworne to Dauid my seruant,

٤ 4 إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ أُثَبِّتُ نَسْلَكَ، وَأَبْنِي إِلَى دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ كُرْسِيَّكَ». سِلَاهْ.

Thy seede will I stablish for euer, and set vp thy throne from generation to generation. (Selah)

٥ 5 وَٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ تَحْمَدُ عَجَائِبَكَ يَارَبُّ، وَحَقَّكَ أَيْضًا فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

O Lord, euen the heauens shall prayse thy wonderous worke: yea, thy trueth in the Congregation of the Saints.

٦ 6 لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ يُعَادِلُ ٱلرَّبَّ. مَنْ يُشْبِهُ ٱلرَّبَّ بَيْنَ أَبْنَاءِ ٱللهِ؟

For who is equall to the Lord in the heauen? and who is like the Lord among the sonnes of the gods?

٧ 7 إِلَهٌ مَهُوبٌ جِدًّا فِي مُؤَامَرَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ، وَمَخُوفٌ عِنْدَ جَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ.

God is very terrible in the assemblie of the Saints, and to be reuerenced aboue all, that are about him.

٨ 8 يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ ٱلْجُنُودِ، مَنْ مِثْلُكَ؟ قَوِيٌّ، رَبٌّ، وَحَقُّكَ مِنْ حَوْلِكَ.

O Lord God of hostes, who is like vnto thee, which art a mightie Lord, and thy trueth is about thee?

٩ 9 أَنْتَ مُتَسَلِّطٌ عَلَى كِبْرِيَاءِ ٱلْبَحْرِ. عِنْدَ ٱرْتِفَاعِ لُجَجِهِ أَنْتَ تُسَكِّنُهَا.

Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waues thereof arise, thou stillest them.

١٠ 10 أَنْتَ سَحَقْتَ رَهَبَ مِثْلَ ٱلْقَتِيلِ. بِذِرَاعِ قُوَّتِكَ بَدَّدْتَ أَعْدَاءَكَ.

Thou hast beaten downe Rahab as a man slaine: thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy mightie arme.

١١ 11 لَكَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ. لَكَ أَيْضًا ٱلْأَرْضُ. ٱلْمَسْكُونَةُ وَمِلْؤُهَا أَنْتَ أَسَّسْتَهُمَا.

The heauens are thine, the earth also is thine: thou hast layde the foundation of the world, and all that therein is.

١٢ 12 ٱلشِّمَالُ وَٱلْجَنُوبُ أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهُمَا. تَابُورُ وَحَرْمُونُ بِٱسْمِكَ يَهْتِفَانِ.

Thou hast created the North and the South: Tabor and Hermon shall reioyce in thy Name.

Thou hast a mightie arme: strong is thine hand, and high is thy right hand.

١٤ 14 ٱلْعَدْلُ وَٱلْحَقُّ قَاعِدَةُ كُرْسِيِّكَ. ٱلرَّحْمَةُ وَٱلْأَمَانَةُ تَتَقَدَّمَانِ أَمَامَ وَجْهِكَ.

Righteousnesse and equitie are the stablishment of thy throne: mercy and trueth goe before thy face.

١٥ 15 طُوبَى لِلشَّعْبِ ٱلْعَارِفِينَ ٱلْهُتَافَ. يَارَبُّ، بِنُورِ وَجْهِكَ يَسْلُكُونَ.

Blessed is the people, that can reioyce in thee: they shall walke in the light of thy countenance, O Lord.

١٦ 16 بِٱسْمِكَ يَبْتَهِجُونَ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَبِعَدْلِكَ يَرْتَفِعُونَ.

They shall reioyce continually in thy Name, and in thy righteousnes shall they exalt them selues.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ فَخْرُ قُوَّتِهِمْ، وَبِرِضَاكَ يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُنَا.

For thou art the glory of their strength, and by thy fauour our hornes shall be exalted.

For our shield apperteineth to the Lord, and our King to the holy one of Israel.

١٩ 19 حِينَئِذٍ كَلَّمْتَ بِرُؤْيَا تَقِيَّكَ وَقُلْتَ: «جَعَلْتُ عَوْنًا عَلَى قَوِيٍّ. رَفَعْتُ مُخْتَارًا مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

Thou spakest then in a vision vnto thine Holy one, and saydest, I haue layde helpe vpon one that is mightie: I haue exalted one chosen out of the people.

I haue found Dauid my seruant: with mine holy oyle haue I anoynted him.

Therefore mine hande shall be established with him, and mine arme shall strengthen him.

٢٢ 22 لَا يُرْغِمُهُ عَدُوٌّ، وَٱبْنُ ٱلْإِثْمِ لَا يُذَلِّلُهُ.

The enemie shall not oppresse him, neither shall the wicked hurt him.

٢٣ 23 وَأَسْحَقُ أَعْدَاءَهُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِهِ، وَأَضْرِبُ مُبْغِضِيهِ.

But I will destroy his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.

٢٤ 24 أَمَّا أَمَانَتِي وَرَحْمَتِي فَمَعَهُ، وَبِٱسْمِي يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُهُ.

My trueth also and my mercie shall be with him, and in my Name shall his horne be exalted.

I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the floods.

٢٦ 26 هُوَ يَدْعُونِي: أَبِي أَنْتَ، إِلَهِي وَصَخْرَةُ خَلَاصِي.

He shall cry vnto mee, Thou art my Father, my God and the rocke of my saluation.

٢٧ 27 أَنَا أَيْضًا أَجْعَلُهُ بِكْرًا، أَعْلَى مِنْ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Also I wil make him my first borne, higher then the Kings of the earth.

My mercie will I keepe for him for euermore, and my couenant shall stande fast with him.

٢٩ 29 وَأَجْعَلُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ نَسْلَهُ مِثْلَ أَيَّامِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ.

His seede also will I make to endure for euer, and his throne as the dayes of heauen.

٣٠ 30 إِنْ تَرَكَ بَنُوهُ شَرِيعَتِي وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا بِأَحْكَامِي،

But if his children forsake my Lawe, and walke not in my iudgements:

٣١ 31 إِنْ نَقَضُوا فَرَائِضِي وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَايَ،

If they breake my statutes, and keepe not my commandements:

٣٢ 32 أَفْتَقِدُ بِعَصًا مَعْصِيَتَهُمْ، وَبِضَرَبَاتٍ إِثْمَهُمْ.

Then will I visite their transgression with the rod, and their iniquitie with strokes.

٣٣ 33 أَمَّا رَحْمَتِي فَلَا أَنْزِعُهَا عَنْهُ، وَلَا أَكْذِبُ مِنْ جِهَةِ أَمَانَتِي.

Yet my louing kindnesse will I not take from him, neither will I falsifie my trueth.

My couenant wil I not breake, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

٣٥ 35 مَرَّةً حَلَفْتُ بِقُدْسِي، أَنِّي لَا أَكْذِبُ لِدَاوُدَ:

I haue sworne once by mine holines, that I will not fayle Dauid, saying,

٣٦ 36 نَسْلُهُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ يَكُونُ، وَكُرْسِيُّهُ كَٱلشَّمْسِ أَمَامِي.

His seede shall endure for euer, and his throne shalbe as the sunne before me.

٣٧ 37 مِثْلَ ٱلْقَمَرِ يُثَبَّتُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. وَٱلشَّاهِدُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَمِينٌ. سِلَاهْ.

He shalbe established for euermore as the moone, and as a faythfull witnes in the heauen. (Selah)

٣٨ 38 لَكِنَّكَ رَفَضْتَ وَرَذَلْتَ، غَضِبْتَ عَلَى مَسِيحِكَ.

But thou hast reiected and abhorred, thou hast bene angry with thine Anoynted.

٣٩ 39 نَقَضْتَ عَهْدَ عَبْدِكَ، نَجَّسْتَ تَاجَهُ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ.

Thou hast broken the couenant of thy seruant, and profaned his crowne, casting it on the ground.

Thou hast broken downe all his walles: thou hast layd his fortresses in ruine.

٤١ 41 أَفْسَدَهُ كُلُّ عَابِرِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ صَارَ عَارًا عِنْدَ جِيرَانِهِ.

All that goe by the way, spoyle him: he is a rebuke vnto his neighbours.

٤٢ 42 رَفَعْتَ يَمِينَ مُضَايِقِيهِ، فَرَّحْتَ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِهِ.

Thou hast set vp the right hand of his enemies, and made all his aduersaries to reioyce.

٤٣ 43 أَيْضًا رَدَدْتَ حَدَّ سَيْفِهِ، وَلَمْ تَنْصُرْهُ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ.

Thou hast also turned the edge of his sworde, and hast not made him to stand in the battell.

٤٤ 44 أَبْطَلْتَ بَهَاءَهُ، وَأَلْقَيْتَ كُرْسِيَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Thou hast caused his dignitie to decay, and cast his throne to the ground.

٤٥ 45 قَصَّرْتَ أَيَّامَ شَبَابِهِ غَطَّيْتَهُ بِٱلْخِزْيِ. سِلَاهْ.

The dayes of his youth hast thou shortned, and couered him with shame. (Selah)

٤٦ 46 حَتَّى مَتَى يَارَبُّ تَخْتَبِئُ كُلَّ ٱلِٱخْتِبَاءِ؟ حَتَّى مَتَى يَتَّقِدُ كَٱلنَّارِ غَضَبُكَ؟

Lord, howe long wilt thou hide thy selfe, for euer? shall thy wrath burne like fire?

٤٧ 47 ٱذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَنَا زَائِلٌ، إِلَى أَيِّ بَاطِلٍ خَلَقْتَ جَمِيعَ بَنِي آدَمَ!

Remember of what time I am: wherefore shouldest thou create in vaine all the children of men?

٤٨ 48 أَيُّ إِنْسَانٍ يَحْيَا وَلَا يَرَى ٱلْمَوْتَ؟ أَيٌّ يُنَجِّي نَفْسَهُ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ؟ سِلَاهْ. (Sheol h7585)

What man liueth, and shall not see death? shall hee deliuer his soule from the hande of the graue? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)

٤٩ 49 أَيْنَ مَرَاحِمُكَ ٱلْأُوَلُ يَارَبُّ، ٱلَّتِي حَلَفْتَ بِهَا لِدَاوُدَ بِأَمَانَتِكَ؟

Lord, where are thy former mercies, which thou swarest vnto Dauid in thy trueth?

٥٠ 50 ٱذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ عَارَ عَبِيدِكَ ٱلَّذِي أَحْتَمِلُهُ فِي حِضْنِي مِنْ كَثْرَةِ ٱلْأُمَمِ كُلِّهَا،

Remember, O Lord, the rebuke of thy seruants, which I beare in my bosome of all the mightie people.

For thine enemies haue reproched thee, O Lord, because they haue reproched the footesteps of thine Anointed.

Praised be the Lord for euermore. So be it, euen so be it.
