المَزامِير 107
| ارْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ لأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، وَرَحْمَتَهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ. | ١ 1 |
O give thanks unto the LORD, for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
| لِيَقُلْ هَذَا مَفْدِيُّو الرَّبِّ، الَّذِينَ افْتَدَاهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ظَالِمِهِمْ. | ٢ 2 |
Let the redeemed of the LORD say [so], whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
| لَمَّ شَتَاتَهُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ: مِنَ الشَّرْقِ وَالْغَرْبِ، مِنَ الشِّمَالِ وَالْجَنُوبِ. | ٣ 3 |
And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
| تَاهُوا فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، فِي صَحْرَاءَ بِلَا طَرِيقٍ، وَلَمْ يَجِدُوا مَدِينَةً يَسْكُنُونَ فِيهَا. | ٤ 4 |
They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
| جَاعُوا وَعَطِشُوا حَتَّى خَارَتْ نُفُوسُهُمْ فِي دَاخِلِهِمْ. | ٥ 5 |
Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
| فَاسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses.
| وَهَدَاهُمْ طَرِيقاً مُسْتَقِيماً لِيَتَوَجَّهُوا إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ لِلسَّكَنِ. | ٧ 7 |
And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٨ 8 |
Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!
| لأَنَّهُ أَشْبَعَ النَّفْسَ الْمُتَلَهِّفَةَ وَمَلأَ النَّفْسَ الْجَائِعَةَ خَيْراً. | ٩ 9 |
For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
| كَانُوا جَالِسِينَ كَالأَسْرَى فِي الظَّلامِ وَظِلالِ الْمَوْتِ، مُوْثَقِينَ بِالذُّلِّ وَالْحَدِيدِ، | ١٠ 10 |
Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, [being] bound in affliction and iron;
| لأَنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَى كَلامِ اللهِ، وَاسْتَهَانُوا بِمَشُورَةِ الْعَلِيِّ. | ١١ 11 |
Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
| فَأَذَلَّ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِالْجَهْدِ الْمُضْنِي. تَعَثَّرُوا وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ مُعِينٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and [there was] none to help.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses.
| أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنَ الظَّلامِ وَظِلالِ الْمَوْتِ وَحَطَّمَ قُيُودَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!
| لأَنَّهُ كَسَّرَ أَبْوَابَ النُّحَاسِ، وَقَطَّعَ عَوَارِضَ الْحَدِيدِ. | ١٦ 16 |
For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.
| سَفِهُوا فِي جَهْلِهِمْ وَسَقِمُوا مِنْ جَرَّاءِ آثَامِهِمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
| عَافَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ كُلَّ طَعَامٍ، فَصَارُوا عَلَى شَفَا الْمَوْتِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he saveth them out of their distresses.
| أَصْدَرَ أَمْرَهُ فَشَفَاهُمْ، وَخَلَّصَهُمْ مِنْ مَهَالِكِهِمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered [them] from their destructions.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!
| وَلْيُقَرِّبُوا لَهُ ذَبَائِحَ الشُّكْرِ، وَيُحَدِّثُوا بِأَعْمَالِهِ بِتَرَانِيمِ الْفَرَحِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
| رَكِبَ بَعْضُهُمُ الْبِحَارَ فِي السُّفُنِ التِّجَارِيَّةِ، لِيَكْسَبُوا رِزْقَهُمْ، | ٢٣ 23 |
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
| وَرَأَوْا أَعْمَالَ الرَّبِّ وَعَجَائِبَهُ فِي عُمْقِ الْمِيَاهِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
| فَإِنَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِ أَثَارَ رِيحاً عَاصِفَةً فَأَهَاجَتْ أَمْوَاجَ الْبَحْرِ | ٢٥ 25 |
For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
| فَارْتَفَعَتِ السُّفُنُ إِلَى الأَعَالِي، ثُمَّ هَبَطَتْ إِلَى الأَعْمَاقِ، حَتَّى ذَابَتْ نُفُوسُهُمْ مِنَ الْفَزَعِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.
| تَمَايَلُوا وَتَرَنَّحُوا مِثْلَ السَّكْرَانِ، وَأَعْيَتْهُمُ الْحِيلَةُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits’ end.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ فِي ضِيقِهِمْ، فَأَنْقَذَهُمْ مِنْ مَصَائِبِهِمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.
| هَدَّأَ الْعَاصِفَةَ الشَّدِيدَةَ، وَسَكَّنَ الأَمْوَاجَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
| فَفَرِحُوا بِهُدُوئِهَا، ثُمَّ اقْتَادَهُمْ إِلَى الْمَرْفَأ الْمَنْشُودِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
| فَلْيَرْفَعُوا الشُّكْرَ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، وَعَلَى عَجَائِبِهِ لِبَنِي آدَمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!
| وَلْيُعَظِّمُوهُ فِي مَحْفَلِ الشَّعْبِ، وَلْيُسَبِّحُوهُ فِي اجْتِمَاعِ الشُّيُوخِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
| إِنَّهُ يُحَوِّلُ الأَنْهَارَ إِلَى قِفَارٍ، وَيَنَابِيعَ الْمَاءِ إِلَى أَرْضٍ عَطْشَى. | ٣٣ 33 |
He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;
| يَجْعَلُ الْحُقُولَ الْخَصِيبَةَ أَرْضاً مَلِحَةً جَرْدَاءَ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ شَرِّ سُكَّانِهَا. | ٣٤ 34 |
A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
| يُحَوِّلُ الْبَرِّيَّةَ إِلَى وَاحَةٍ، وَالأَرْضَ الْقَاحِلَةَ يَنَابِيعَ مِيَاهٍ. | ٣٥ 35 |
He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
| يُسْكِنُ هُنَاكَ الْجِيَاعَ فَيُنْشِئُونَ مَدِينَةً آهِلَةً. | ٣٦ 36 |
And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;
| وَيَزْرَعُونَ حُقُولاً وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُوماً تُنْتِجُ لَهُمْ غِلَالاً وَفِيرَةً. | ٣٧ 37 |
And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
| وَيُبَارِكُهُمْ أَيْضاً فَيَتَكَاثَرُونَ جِدّاً، وَلَا يَدَعُ مَوَاشِيَهُمْ تَتَنَاقَصُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
| عِنْدَمَا يَقِلُّ الشَّعْبُ وَيَذِلُّ بِفِعْلِ الضِّيقِ وَالْبَلايَا وَالأَحْزَانِ، | ٣٩ 39 |
Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
| يَصُبُّ اللهُ الْهَوَانَ عَلَى الرُّؤَسَاءِ، وَيُضِلُّهُمْ فِي أَرْضِ تِيهٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا طَرِيقٌ. | ٤٠ 40 |
He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, [where there is] no way.
| لَكِنَّهُ يُنْقِذُ الْمُحْتَاجِينَ مِنَ الْبُؤْسِ، وَيُكَثِّرُ عَشَائِرَهُمْ مِثْلَ قُطْعَانِ الْغَنَمِ. | ٤١ 41 |
Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh [him] families like a flock.
| يَرَى الْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ هَذَا وَيَفْرَحُونَ، أَمَّا الأَثَمَةُ فَيَخْرَسُونَ. | ٤٢ 42 |
The righteous shall see [it], and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
| فَلْيَتَأَمَّلْ كُلُّ حَكِيمٍ فِي هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَيُمْعِنِ النَّظَرَ فِي مَرَاحِمِ الرَّبِّ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Whoso [is] wise, and will observe these [things], even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
