المَزامِير 107
| ارْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ لأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، وَرَحْمَتَهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ. | ١ 1 |
Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.
| لِيَقُلْ هَذَا مَفْدِيُّو الرَّبِّ، الَّذِينَ افْتَدَاهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ظَالِمِهِمْ. | ٢ 2 |
Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy
| لَمَّ شَتَاتَهُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ: مِنَ الشَّرْقِ وَالْغَرْبِ، مِنَ الشِّمَالِ وَالْجَنُوبِ. | ٣ 3 |
and gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.
| تَاهُوا فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، فِي صَحْرَاءَ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ، وَلَمْ يَجِدُوا مَدِينَةً يَسْكُنُونَ فِيهَا. | ٤ 4 |
Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no path to a city in which to dwell.
| جَاعُوا وَعَطِشُوا حَتَّى خَارَتْ نُفُوسُهُمْ فِي دَاخِلِهِمْ. | ٥ 5 |
They were hungry and thirsty; their soul fainted within them.
| فَاسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress.
| وَهَدَاهُمْ طَرِيقاً مُسْتَقِيماً لِيَتَوَجَّهُوا إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ لِلسَّكَنِ. | ٧ 7 |
He led them on a straight path to reach a city where they could live.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٨ 8 |
Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.
| لأَنَّهُ أَشْبَعَ النَّفْسَ الْمُتَلَهِّفَةَ وَمَلأَ النَّفْسَ الْجَائِعَةَ خَيْراً. | ٩ 9 |
For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.
| كَانُوا جَالِسِينَ كَالأَسْرَى فِي الظَّلامِ وَظِلالِ الْمَوْتِ، مُوْثَقِينَ بِالذُّلِّ وَالْحَدِيدِ، | ١٠ 10 |
Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and chains,
| لأَنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَى كَلامِ اللهِ، وَاسْتَهَانُوا بِمَشُورَةِ الْعَلِيِّ. | ١١ 11 |
because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.
| فَأَذَلَّ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِالْجَهْدِ الْمُضْنِي. تَعَثَّرُوا وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ مُعِينٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
He humbled their hearts with hard labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.
| أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنَ الظَّلامِ وَظِلالِ الْمَوْتِ وَحَطَّمَ قُيُودَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and broke away their chains.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.
| لأَنَّهُ كَسَّرَ أَبْوَابَ النُّحَاسِ، وَقَطَّعَ عَوَارِضَ الْحَدِيدِ. | ١٦ 16 |
For He has broken down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.
| سَفِهُوا فِي جَهْلِهِمْ وَسَقِمُوا مِنْ جَرَّاءِ آثَامِهِمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
Fools, in their rebellious ways, and through their iniquities, suffered affliction.
| عَافَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ كُلَّ طَعَامٍ، فَصَارُوا عَلَى شَفَا الْمَوْتِ. | ١٨ 18 |
They loathed all food and drew near to the gates of death.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.
| أَصْدَرَ أَمْرَهُ فَشَفَاهُمْ، وَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ مَهَالِكِهِمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
He sent forth His word and healed them; He rescued them from the Pit.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.
| وَلْيُقَرِّبُوا لَهُ ذَبَائِحَ الشُّكْرِ، وَيُحَدِّثُوا بِأَعْمَالِهِ بِتَرَانِيمِ الْفَرَحِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving and declare His works with rejoicing.
| رَكِبَ بَعْضُهُمُ الْبِحَارَ فِي السُّفُنِ التِّجَارِيَّةِ، لِيَكْسَبُوا رِزْقَهُمْ، | ٢٣ 23 |
Others went out to sea in ships, conducting trade on the mighty waters.
| وَرَأَوْا أَعْمَالَ الرَّبِّ وَعَجَائِبَهُ فِي عُمْقِ الْمِيَاهِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
They saw the works of the LORD, and His wonders in the deep.
| فَإِنَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِ أَثَارَ رِيحاً عَاصِفَةً فَأَهَاجَتْ أَمْوَاجَ الْبَحْرِ | ٢٥ 25 |
For He spoke and raised a tempest that lifted the waves of the sea.
| فَارْتَفَعَتِ السُّفُنُ إِلَى الأَعَالِي، ثُمَّ هَبَطَتْ إِلَى الأَعْمَاقِ، حَتَّى ذَابَتْ نُفُوسُهُمْ مِنَ الْفَزَعِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They mounted up to the heavens, then sunk to the depths; their courage melted in their anguish.
| تَمَايَلُوا وَتَرَنَّحُوا مِثْلَ السَّكْرَانِ، وَأَعْيَتْهُمُ الْحِيلَةُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
They reeled and staggered like drunkards, and all their skill was useless.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brought them out of their distress.
| هَدَّأَ الْعَاصِفَةَ الشَّدِيدَةَ، وَسَكَّنَ الأَمْوَاجَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
He calmed the storm to a whisper, and the waves of the sea were hushed.
| فَفَرِحُوا بِهُدُوئِهَا، ثُمَّ اقْتَادَهُمْ إِلَى الْمَرْفَأ الْمَنْشُودِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
They rejoiced in the silence, and He guided them to the harbor they desired.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.
| وَلْيُعَظِّمُوهُ فِي مَحْفَلِ الشَّعْبِ، وَلْيُسَبِّحُوهُ فِي اجْتِمَاعِ الشُّيُوخِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Let them exalt Him in the assembly of the people and praise Him in the council of the elders.
| إِنَّهُ يُحَوِّلُ الأَنْهَارَ إِلَى قِفَارٍ، وَيَنَابِيعَ الْمَاءِ إِلَى أَرْضٍ عَطْشَى. | ٣٣ 33 |
He turns rivers into deserts, springs of water into thirsty ground,
| يَجْعَلُ الْحُقُولَ الْخَصِيبَةَ أَرْضاً مَلِحَةً جَرْدَاءَ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ شَرِّ سُكَّانِهَا. | ٣٤ 34 |
and fruitful land into fields of salt, because of the wickedness of its dwellers.
| يُحَوِّلُ الْبَرِّيَّةَ إِلَى وَاحَةٍ، وَالأَرْضَ الْقَاحِلَةَ يَنَابِيعَ مِيَاهٍ. | ٣٥ 35 |
He turns a desert into pools of water and a dry land into flowing springs.
| يُسْكِنُ هُنَاكَ الْجِيَاعَ فَيُنْشِئُونَ مَدِينَةً آهِلَةً. | ٣٦ 36 |
He causes the hungry to settle there, that they may establish a city in which to dwell.
| وَيَزْرَعُونَ حُقُولاً وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُوماً تُنْتِجُ لَهُمْ غِلَالاً وَفِيرَةً. | ٣٧ 37 |
They sow fields and plant vineyards that yield a fruitful harvest.
| وَيُبَارِكُهُمْ أَيْضاً فَيَتَكَاثَرُونَ جِدّاً، وَلَا يَدَعُ مَوَاشِيَهُمْ تَتَنَاقَصُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
He blesses them, and they multiply greatly; He does not let their herds diminish.
| عِنْدَمَا يَقِلُّ الشَّعْبُ وَيَذِلُّ بِفِعْلِ الضِّيقِ وَالْبَلايَا وَالأَحْزَانِ، | ٣٩ 39 |
When they are decreased and humbled by oppression, evil, and sorrow,
| يَصُبُّ اللهُ الْهَوَانَ عَلَى الرُّؤَسَاءِ، وَيُضِلُّهُمْ فِي أَرْضِ تِيهٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا طَرِيقٌ. | ٤٠ 40 |
He pours out contempt on the nobles and makes them wander in a trackless wasteland.
| لَكِنَّهُ يُنْقِذُ الْمُحْتَاجِينَ مِنَ الْبُؤْسِ، وَيُكَثِّرُ عَشَائِرَهُمْ مِثْلَ قُطْعَانِ الْغَنَمِ. | ٤١ 41 |
But He lifts the needy from affliction and increases their families like flocks.
| يَرَى الْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ هَذَا وَيَفْرَحُونَ، أَمَّا الأَثَمَةُ فَيَخْرَسُونَ. | ٤٢ 42 |
The upright see and rejoice, and all iniquity shuts its mouth.
| فَلْيَتَأَمَّلْ كُلُّ حَكِيمٍ فِي هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَيُمْعِنِ النَّظَرَ فِي مَرَاحِمِ الرَّبِّ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Let him who is wise pay heed to these things and consider the loving devotion of the LORD.
