هَلِّلُويَا. سَبِّحُوا اسْمَ الرَّبِّ. سَبِّحُوهُ يَا عَبِيدَ الرَّبِّ، ١ 1
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord's reputation! Praise the Lord, all you servants of the Lord
الْقَائِمِينَ عَلَى الْخِدْمَةِ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا. ٢ 2
who worship in the house of the Lord, in the courts of our God.
سَبِّحُوا الرَّبَّ فَإِنَّهُ صَالِحٌ. اشْدُوا لاسْمِهِ، فَإِنَّ ذَاكَ حُلْوٌ. ٣ 3
Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praises to his character because it is wonderful!
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ يَعْقُوبَ لِنَفْسِهِ، وَاتَّخَذَ إِسْرَائِيلَ شَعْباً خَاصّاً لَهُ. ٤ 4
For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel as his very own.
قَدْ عَرَفْتُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ عَظِيمٌ، وَأَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا أَسْمَى مِنْ جَمِيعِ الآلِهَةِ. ٥ 5
I know how great the Lord is—our Lord is greater than all gods.
كُلَّ مَا شَاءَ صَنَعَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَفِي الأَرْضِ وَالْبِحَارِ، وَفِي كُلِّ الأَغْوَارِ الْعَمِيقَةِ. ٦ 6
The Lord does whatever he wants throughout heaven and earth, on the seas and in the ocean depths.
يُصْعِدُ الأَبْخِرَةَ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ، وَيُحْدِثُ بُرُوقاً لِلْمَطَرِ، وَيُطْلِقُ الرِّيحَ مِنْ خَزَائِنِهِ. ٧ 7
He causes the clouds to rise all over the earth, he makes lightning flash and give rain, he sends the winds from his storehouses.
هُوَ الَّذِي ضَرَبَ أَبْكَارَ مِصْرَ، أَبْكَارَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ. ٨ 8
He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both human and animal.
وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَجْرَى آيَاتٍ وَمُعْجِزَاتٍ فِي وَسَطِكِ يَا مِصْرُ، وَعَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَمِيعِ عَبِيدِهِ. ٩ 9
He did wonderful miracles among you in Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
ضَرَبَ أُمَماً عَظِيمَةً، وَقَتَلَ مُلُوكاً مُقْتَدِرِينَ: ١٠ 10
He struck down many nations, he killed powerful kings, such as
سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ الأَمُورِيِّينَ، وَعُوجَ مَلِكَ بَاشَانَ، وَجَمِيعَ مَمَالِكِ كَنْعَانَ. ١١ 11
Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and all the kings who ruled in Canaan.
وَوَهَبَ أَرْضَهُمْ مِيرَاثاً لإِسْرَائِيلَ شَعْبِهِ. ١٢ 12
He handed over their lands to Israel, his special people, for them to possess.
اسْمُكَ خَالِدٌ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. ذِكْرُكَ يَا رَبُّ مِنْ جِيلٍ إِلَى جِيلٍ. ١٣ 13
Your reputation, Lord, stands forever; you, Lord, are remembered for all generations.
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُحَاكِمُ شَعْبَهُ بِعَدْلٍ وَيَعْطِفُ عَلَى عَبِيدِهِ. ١٤ 14
The Lord will vindicate his people; he will show compassion to those who follow him.
أَمَّا أَصْنَامُ الأُمَمِ فَهِيَ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، صَنْعَةُ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ. ١٥ 15
The idols of the foreign nations are only objects of silver and gold, made by human hands.
لَهَا أَفْوَاهٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَتَكَلَّمُ، وَعُيُونٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَرَى. ١٦ 16
They have mouths, but can't speak; they have eyes, but can't see.
وَآذَانٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَسْمَعُ. وَلَيْسَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهَا نَسَمَةُ حَيَاةٍ. ١٧ 17
They have ears, but can't hear; they can't even breathe!
مِثْلَهَا يَصِيرُ صَانِعُوهَا وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْهَا. ١٨ 18
Those who make idols will become just like them, and so will everyone who trusts in them.
يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. يَا بَيْتَ هَارُونَ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. ١٩ 19
People of Israel, praise the Lord! Descendants of Aaron, praise the Lord!
يَا بَيْتَ لاوِي بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. يَا خَائِفِي الرَّبِّ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. ٢٠ 20
Levites, praise the Lord! Everyone who worships the Lord, praise the Lord!
مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ، الرَّبُّ السَّاكِنُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. هَلِّلُويَا. ٢١ 21
Praise the Lord from Zion, for he lives in Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
