اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 89

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

Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever; to all generations will I make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth.

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

For I have said: 'For ever is mercy built; in the very heavens Thou dost establish Thy faithfulness.

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

I have made a covenant with My chosen, I have sworn unto David My servant:

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

For ever will I establish thy seed, and build up thy throne to all generations.' (Selah)

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

So shall the heavens praise Thy wonders, O LORD, Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

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

For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD, who among the sons of might can be likened unto the LORD,

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

A God dreaded in the great council of the holy ones, and feared of all them that are about Him?

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

O LORD God of hosts, who is a mighty one, like unto Thee, O LORD? And Thy faithfulness is round about Thee.

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

Thou rulest the proud swelling of the sea; when the waves thereof arise, Thou stillest them.

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

Thou didst crush Rahab, as one that is slain; Thou didst scatter Thine enemies with the arm of Thy strength.

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

Thine are the heavens, Thine also the earth; the world and the fulness thereof, Thou hast founded them.

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

The north and the south, Thou hast created them; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in Thy name.

١٣ 13 لَكَ ذِرَاعُ ٱلْقُدْرَةِ. قَوِيَّةٌ يَدُكَ. مُرْتَفِعَةٌ يَمِينُكَ.

Thine is an arm with might; strong is Thy hand, and exalted is Thy right hand.

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

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Thy throne; mercy and truth go before Thee.

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

Happy is the people that know the joyful shout; they walk, O LORD, in the light of Thy countenance.

١٦ 16 بِٱسْمِكَ يَبْتَهِجُونَ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَبِعَدْلِكَ يَرْتَفِعُونَ.

In Thy name do they rejoice all the day; and through Thy righteousness are they exalted.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ فَخْرُ قُوَّتِهِمْ، وَبِرِضَاكَ يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُنَا.

For Thou art the glory of their strength; and in Thy favour our horn is exalted.

١٨ 18 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مِجَنُّنَا، وَقُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَلِكُنَا.

For of the LORD is our shield; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

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

Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

٢٠ 20 وَجَدْتُ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي. بِدُهْنِ قُدْسِي مَسَحْتُهُ.

I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him;

٢١ 21 ٱلَّذِي تَثْبُتُ يَدِي مَعَهُ. أَيْضًا ذِرَاعِي تُشَدِّدُهُ.

With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.

٢٢ 22 لَا يُرْغِمُهُ عَدُوٌّ، وَٱبْنُ ٱلْإِثْمِ لَا يُذَلِّلُهُ.

The enemy shall not exact from him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

٢٣ 23 وَأَسْحَقُ أَعْدَاءَهُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِهِ، وَأَضْرِبُ مُبْغِضِيهِ.

And I will beat to pieces his adversaries before him, and smite them that hate him.

٢٤ 24 أَمَّا أَمَانَتِي وَرَحْمَتِي فَمَعَهُ، وَبِٱسْمِي يَنْتَصِبُ قَرْنُهُ.

But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him; and through My name shall his horn be exalted.

٢٥ 25 وَأَجْعَلُ عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ يَدَهُ، وَعَلَى ٱلْأَنْهَارِ يَمِينَهُ.

I will set his hand also on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.

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

He shall call unto Me: Thou art my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

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

I also will appoint him first-born, the highest of the kings of the earth.

٢٨ 28 إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ أَحْفَظُ لَهُ رَحْمَتِي. وَعَهْدِي يُثَبَّتُ لَهُ.

For ever will I keep for him My mercy, and My covenant shall stand fast with him.

٢٩ 29 وَأَجْعَلُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ نَسْلَهُ مِثْلَ أَيَّامِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ.

His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

٣٠ 30 إِنْ تَرَكَ بَنُوهُ شَرِيعَتِي وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا بِأَحْكَامِي،

If his children forsake My law, and walk not in Mine ordinances;

٣١ 31 إِنْ نَقَضُوا فَرَائِضِي وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَايَ،

If they profane My statutes, and keep not My commandments;

٣٢ 32 أَفْتَقِدُ بِعَصًا مَعْصِيَتَهُمْ، وَبِضَرَبَاتٍ إِثْمَهُمْ.

Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with strokes.

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

But My mercy will I not break off from him, nor will I be false to My faithfulness.

٣٤ 34 لَا أَنْقُضُ عَهْدِي، وَلَا أُغَيِّرُ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ شَفَتَيَّ.

My covenant will I not profane, nor alter that which is gone out of My lips.

٣٥ 35 مَرَّةً حَلَفْتُ بِقُدْسِي، أَنِّي لَا أَكْذِبُ لِدَاوُدَ:

Once have I sworn by My holiness: Surely I will not be false unto David;

٣٦ 36 نَسْلُهُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ يَكُونُ، وَكُرْسِيُّهُ كَٱلشَّمْسِ أَمَامِي.

His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before Me.

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

It shall be established for ever as the moon; and be stedfast as the witness in sky.' (Selah)

٣٨ 38 لَكِنَّكَ رَفَضْتَ وَرَذَلْتَ، غَضِبْتَ عَلَى مَسِيحِكَ.

But Thou hast cast off and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with Thine anointed.

٣٩ 39 نَقَضْتَ عَهْدَ عَبْدِكَ، نَجَّسْتَ تَاجَهُ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ.

Thou hast abhorred the covenant of Thy servant; Thou hast profaned his crown even to the ground.

٤٠ 40 هَدَمْتَ كُلَّ جُدْرَانِهِ جَعَلْتَ حُصُونَهُ خَرَابًا.

Thou hast broken down all his fences; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.

٤١ 41 أَفْسَدَهُ كُلُّ عَابِرِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ صَارَ عَارًا عِنْدَ جِيرَانِهِ.

All that pass by the way spoil him; he is become a taunt to his neighbours.

٤٢ 42 رَفَعْتَ يَمِينَ مُضَايِقِيهِ، فَرَّحْتَ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِهِ.

Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

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

Yea, Thou turnest back the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.

٤٤ 44 أَبْطَلْتَ بَهَاءَهُ، وَأَلْقَيْتَ كُرْسِيَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Thou hast made his brightness to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.

٤٥ 45 قَصَّرْتَ أَيَّامَ شَبَابِهِ غَطَّيْتَهُ بِٱلْخِزْيِ. سِلَاهْ.

The days of his youth hast Thou shortened; Thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)

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

How long, O LORD, wilt Thou hide Thyself for ever? How long shall Thy wrath burn like fire?

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

O remember how short my time is; for what vanity hast Thou created all the children of men!

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

What man is he that liveth and shall not see death, that shall deliver his soul from the power of the grave? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)

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

Where are Thy former mercies, O Lord, which Thou didst swear unto David in Thy faithfulness?

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

Remember, Lord, the taunt of Thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the taunt of so many peoples;

٥١ 51 ٱلَّذِي بِهِ عَيَّرَ أَعْدَاؤُكَ يَارَبُّ، ٱلَّذِينَ عَيَّرُوا آثَارَ مَسِيحِكَ.

Wherewith Thine enemies have taunted, O LORD, wherewith they have taunted the footsteps of Thine anointed.

٥٢ 52 مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ. آمِينَ فَآمِينَ.

Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
