المَزامِير 112

١ 1 هَلِّلُويَا! طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَخْشَى الرَّبَّ وَيَبْتَهِجُ جِدّاً بِوَصَايَاهُ.

Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!

٢ 2 ذُرِّيَّتُهُ تَكُونُ قَوِيَّةً فِي الأَرْضِ، جِيلُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ يَكُونُ مُبَارَكاً.

Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.

٣ 3 يَمْتَلِئُ بَيْتُهُ مَالاً وَغِنىً، وَبِرُّهُ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.

٤ 4 يُشْرِقُ نُورٌ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ لِلْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ حَنَّانٌ وَرَحِيمٌ وَصِدِّيقٌ.

Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.

٥ 5 سَعِيدٌ هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَتَحَنَّنُ وَيُقْرِضُ مَجَّاناً وَيُدَبِّرُ شُؤُونَهُ بِالْحَيْطَةِ وَالْعَدْلِ.

Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.

٦ 6 فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَتَزَعْزَعَ أَبَداً. ذِكْرُ الصِّدِّيقِ يَخْلُدُ إِلَى الأَبْدِ.

They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.

٧ 7 لَنْ يَخَافَ مِنْ خَبَرِ سُوءٍ، فَقَلْبُهُ ثَابِتٌ مُتَّكِلٌ عَلَى الرَّبِّ.

They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.

٨ 8 قَلْبُهُ ثَابِتٌ لَا تَعْتَرِيهِ الْمَخَاوِفُ، وَيَشْهَدُ عِقَابَ مَضْطَهِدِيهِ.

They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.

٩ 9 يُوَزِّعُ بِسَخَاءٍ وَيُعْطِي الْفُقَرَاءَ، وَبِرُّهُ يَدُومُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَيَرْتَفِعُ رَأْسُهُ بِاعْتِزَازٍ.

They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.

١٠ 10 يَرَى الشِّرِّيرُ ذَلِكَ فَيَغْتَاظُ، يَصِرُّ بِأَسْنَانِهِ وَيَذُوبُ إِذْ شَهْوَةُ الشِّرِّيرِ لَا تَتَحَقَّقُ.

The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
