قَدِّمُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ. ادْعُوا بِاسْمِهِ. عَرِّفُوا بِأَعْمَالِهِ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ. ١ 1
O give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
غَنُّوا لَهُ، اشْدُوا لَهُ. حَدِّثُوا بِكُلِّ عَجَائِبِهِ. ٢ 2
Sing to him, sing psalms to him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
تَبَاهَوْا بِاسْمِهِ الْقُدُّوسِ، لِتَفْرَحْ قُلُوبُ طَالِبِي الرَّبِّ. ٣ 3
Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
اطْلُبُوا الرَّبَّ وَقُوَّتَهُ، الْتَمِسُوا وَجْهَهُ دَائِماً. ٤ 4
Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
اذْكُرُوا عَجَائِبَهُ الَّتِي صَنَعَهَا، مُعْجِزَاتِهِ وَأَحْكَامَهُ الَّتِي نَطَقَ بِها. ٥ 5
Remember his wonderful works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
يَا ذُرِّيَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَبْدِهِ، يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ الَّذِينَ اخْتَارَهُمْ. ٦ 6
O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، أَحْكَامُهُ تَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا. ٧ 7
He [is] the LORD our God: his judgments [are] in all the earth.
لَمْ يَنْسَ عَهْدَهُ قَطُّ وَلَا وَعْدَهُ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ إِلَى أَلْفِ جِيلٍ، ٨ 8
He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word [which] he commanded to a thousand generations.
الْعَهْدَ الَّذِي أَبْرَمَهُ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَالْقَسَمَ الَّذِي أَقْسَمَ بِهِ لإِسْحَاقَ. ٩ 9
Which [covenant] he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac;
ثُمَّ ثَبَّتَهُ لِيَعْقُوبَ فَرِيضَةً، وَلإِسْرَائِيلَ مِيثَاقاً أَبَدِيًّا، ١٠ 10
And confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, [and] to Israel [for] an everlasting covenant:
قَائِلاً: «لَكَ أُعْطِي أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ نَصِيبَ مِيرَاثٍ لَكُمْ». ١١ 11
Saying, To thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:
إِذْ كَانُوا قِلَّةً بَعْدُ، نَفَراً ضَئِيلاً مُتَغَرِّبِينَ فِي الأَرْضِ. ١٢ 12
When they were a few men in number; yes, very few, and strangers in it.
مُتَنَقِّلِينَ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ، وَمِنْ مَمْلَكَةٍ إِلَى أُخْرَى. ١٣ 13
When they went from one nation to another, from [one] kingdom to another people;
فَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَيَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَظْلِمُهُمْ، بَلْ وَبَّخَ مُلُوكاً مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ. ١٤ 14
He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes;
قَائِلاً: «لَا تَمَسُّوا مُسَحَائِي، وَلَا تُؤْذُوا أَنْبِيَائِي». ١٥ 15
[Saying], Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
ثُمَّ أَفْشَى مَجَاعَةً فِي الأَرْضِ، وَقَطَعَ الْخُبْزَ قِوَامَ طَعَامِهِمْ. ١٦ 16
Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he broke the whole staff of bread.
لَكِنَّهُ أَرْسَلَ أَمَامَهُمْ يُوسُفَ، فَبِيعَ عَبْداً. ١٧ 17
He sent a man before them, [even] Joseph, [who] was sold for a servant:
آذَوْا بِالْقُيُودِ قَدَمَيْهِ، وَبِالْحَدِيدِ طَوَّقُوا عُنُقَهُ. ١٨ 18
Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
إِلَى أَنْ تَحَقَّقَ تَفْسِيرُهُ لِلأَحْلامِ فِي أَوَانِهِ، وَبَرْهَنَتْ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ صِدْقَهُ. ١٩ 19
Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
فَأَرْسَلَ الْمَلِكُ وَأَطْلَقَهُ، حَاكِمُ الشَّعْبِ حَرَّرَهُ. ٢٠ 20
The king sent and loosed him; [even] the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
أَقَامَهُ سَيِّداً عَلَى قَصْرِهِ، وَمُتَسَلِّطاً عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَمْلاكِهِ. ٢١ 21
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
يَتَصَرَّفُ بِوُلاتِهِ حَسَبَ مَسَرَّتِهِ، وَيُلَقِّنُ شُيُوخَهُ الْحِكْمَةَ. ٢٢ 22
To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
ثُمَّ جَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلُ إِلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. تَغَرَّبَ يَعْقُوبُ فِي بَلَدِ حَامٍ. ٢٣ 23
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
فَكَثَّرَ اللهُ شَعْبَهُ، وَجَعَلَهُ أَقْوَى مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ، ٢٤ 24
And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
الَّذِينَ حَوَّلَ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِيُبْغِضُوا شَعْبَهُ، وَيَكِيدُوا لِعَبِيدِهِ. ٢٥ 25
He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
عِنْدَئِذٍ أَرْسَلَ مُوسَى عَبْدَهُ وَهَارُونَ مُخْتَارَهُ. ٢٦ 26
He sent Moses his servant; [and] Aaron whom he had chosen.
فَأَجْرَيَا بَيْنَهُمْ آيَاتِهِ، وَصَنَعَا عَجَائِبَ فِي مِصْرَ. ٢٧ 27
They showed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
بَعَثَ ظَلاماً، تَغَشَّتْ بِهِ الأَرْضُ، وَلَكِنَّ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ عَانَدُوا كَلِمَتَهُ. ٢٨ 28
He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
حَوَّلَ مِيَاهَهُمْ إِلَى دَمٍ وَأَمَاتَ أَسْمَاكَهُمْ. ٢٩ 29
He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
فَاضَتْ أَرْضُهُمْ ضَفَادِعَ حَتَّى بَلَغَتْ مَخَادِعَ مُلُوكِهِمْ. ٣٠ 30
Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
أَمَرَ فَأَقْبَلَ الذُّبَابُ وَالْبَعُوضُ فَانْتَشَرَ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِهِمْ ٣١ 31
He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies, [and] lice in all their borders.
أَمْطَرَ عَلَيْهِمْ بَرَداً وَأَلْهَبَ أَرْضَهُمْ بِالْبُرُوقِ. ٣٢ 32
He gave them hail for rain, [and] flaming fire in their land.
ضَرَبَ كُرُومَهُمْ وَتِينَهُمْ، وَهَشَّمَ كُلَّ أَشْجَارِهِمْ ٣٣ 33
He smote their vines also and their fig-trees; and broke the trees of their borders.
أَمَرَ، فَتَوَافَدَ الْجَرَادُ الطَّيَّارُ وَالزَّحَّافُ بِأَعْدَادٍ لَا تُحْصَى، ٣٤ 34
He spoke, and the locusts came, and caterpillars, and that without number,
فَالْتَهَمَ كُلَّ عُشْبِ أَرْضِهِمْ، وَأَكَلَ ثِمَارَ حُقُولِهِمْ. ٣٥ 35
And ate up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
ثُمَّ قَتَلَ الرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ أَبْكَارِ أَرْضِهِمْ، أَوَائِلَ ثِمَارِ خُصُوبَتِهِمْ جَمِيعاً. ٣٦ 36
He smote also all the first-born in their land, the chief of all their strength.
وَأَخْرَجَ شَعْبَهُ مُحَمَّلِينَ بِفِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، وَلَمْ يَتَعَثَّرْ فِي الْمَسِيرِ مِنْ عَشَائِرِهِمْ وَاحِدٌ. ٣٧ 37
He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and [there was] not one feeble [person] among their tribes.
فَرِحَ أَهْلُ مِصْرَ بِخُرُوجِهِمْ لأَنَّ رُعْبَهُمْ غَلَبَ عَلَيْهِمْ. ٣٨ 38
Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
نَشَرَ سَحَابَةً فَوْقَ شَعْبِهِ، غِطَاءً لَهُمْ، وَأَرْسَلَ نَاراً تُضِيءُ لَهُمْ لَيْلاً. ٣٩ 39
He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
طَلَبُوا طَعَاماً فَبَعَثَ لَهُمْ طُيُورَ السَّلْوَى وَمِنْ خُبْزِ السَّمَاءِ أَشْبَعَهُمْ. ٤٠ 40
[The people] asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
فَلَقَ الصَّخْرَةَ وَفَجَّرَ مِنْهَا الْمِيَاهَ، فَجَرَتْ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ كَأَنَّهَا نَهْرٌ. ٤١ 41
He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places [like] a river.
لأَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَتَهُ الْمُقَدَّسَةَ الَّتِي وَعَدَ بِها إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَبْدَهُ. ٤٢ 42
For he remembered his holy promise, [and] Abraham his servant.
وَهَكَذَا أَخْرَجَ شَعْبَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ بِابْتِهَاجٍ وَمُخْتَارِيهِ بِتَرَانِيمِ الظَّفَرِ. ٤٣ 43
And he brought forth his people with joy, [and] his chosen with gladness:
وَوَهَبَهُمْ أَرَاضِيَ الأُمَمِ، فَامْتَلَكُوا غَلَّاتٍ تَعِبَتْ فِيهَا شُعُوبٌ أُخْرَى. ٤٤ 44
And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labor of the people;
لِيُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضَهُ وَيُطِيعُوا شَرَائِعَهُ. هَلِّلُويَا. ٤٥ 45
That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.
