سَبِّحُوا الرَّبَّ أَيُّهَا الأَبْرَارُ، فَإِنَّ الْحَمْدَ يَلِيقُ بِالْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ. ١ 1
Be joyful, O ye righteous, in the Lord; [for] unto the righteous praise is comely.
اشْكُرُوا الرَّبَّ عَلَى الْعُودِ، رَنِّمُوا لَهُ بِرَبَابَةٍ ذَاتِ عَشَرَةِ أَوْتَارٍ. ٢ 2
Give thanks unto the Lord with the harp: with the ten-stringed psaltery do ye sing [praises] unto him.
اعْزِفُوا أَمْهَرَ عَزْفٍ مَعَ الْهُتَافِ، رَنِّمُوا لَهُ تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً. ٣ 3
Sing unto him a new song; play beautifully amidst a triumphant shout.
فَإِنَّ كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ مُسْتَقِيمَةٌ وَهُوَ يَصْنَعُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ بِالأَمَانَةِ. ٤ 4
For the word of the Lord is upright; and all his works [are done] in truth.
يُحِبُّ الْبِرَّ وَالْعَدْلَ. وَرَحْمَتُهُ تَغْمُرُ الأَرْضَ. ٥ 5
He loveth righteousness and justice: the earth is full of the kindness of the Lord.
بِكَلِمَةٍ مِنَ الرَّبِّ صُنِعَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَبِنَسْمَةِ فَمِهِ كُلُّ مَجْمُوعَاتِ الْكَوَاكِبِ. ٦ 6
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
يَجْمَعُ الْبِحَارَ كَكَوْمَةٍ وَالْلُّجَجَ فِي أَهْرَاءٍ. ٧ 7
He gathereth together like heaps the waters of the sea: he layeth up in store-houses the depths [of the sea].
لِتَخَفِ الرَّبَّ الأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا، وَلْيُوَقِّرْهُ جَمِيعُ سُكَّانِ الْعَالَمِ. ٨ 8
Let all the earth fear the Lord: of him stand in awe all the inhabitants of the world.
قَالَ كَلِمَةً فَكَانَ. وَأَمَرَ فَصَارَ! ٩ 9
For he spoke, and it came into being: he commanded, and it stood fast.
الرَّبُّ أَحْبَطَ مُؤَامَرَةَ الأُمَمِ. أَبْطَلَ أَفْكَارَ الشُّعُوبِ. ١٠ 10
The Lord frustrateth the resolves of the nations: he bringeth to nought the thoughts of the people.
أَمَّا مَقَاصِدُ الرَّبِّ فَتَثْبُتُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَأَفْكَارُ قَلْبِهِ تَدُومُ مَدَى الدُّهُورِ. ١١ 11
The counsel of the Lord will stand for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
طُوبَى لِلأُمَّةِ الَّتِي الرَّبُّ إِلَهُهَا، وَلِلشَّعْبِ الَّذِي اخْتَارَهُ مِيرَاثاً لَهُ: ١٢ 12
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he hath chosen for himself as a heritage.
يَنْظُرُ الرَّبُّ مِنَ السَّماوَاتِ فَيَرَى بَنِي الْبَشَرِ أَجْمَعِينَ. ١٣ 13
The Lord looketh from heaven; he seeth all the sons of men.
وَمِنْ مَقَامِ سُكْنَاهُ يُرَاقِبُ جَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ الأَرْضِ. ١٤ 14
From the place of his habitation he directeth his view upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
فَهُوَ جَابِلُ قُلُوبِهِمْ جَمِيعاً وَالْعَلِيمُ بِكُلِّ أَعْمَالِهِمْ. ١٥ 15
He fashioneth their hearts altogether; he hath regard to all their works.
لَا يَخْلُصُ الْمَلِكُ بِالْجَيْشِ الْعَظِيمِ، وَلَا الْجَبَّارُ بِشِدَّةِ الْقُوَّةِ. ١٦ 16
The king is not saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
بَاطِلاً يَرْجُو النَّصْرَ مَنْ يَتَّكِلُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ، فَإِنَّهَا لَا تُنَجِّي رَغْمَ قُوَّتِهَا. ١٧ 17
Vain is the horse for victory: nor shall he deliver any by the greatness of his strength.
هُوَذَا عَيْنُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى خَائِفِيهِ، الْمُتَّكِلِينَ عَلَى رَحْمَتِهِ، ١٨ 18
Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those that fear him, upon those that hope for his kindness.
لِيُنْقِذَ نُفُوسَهُمْ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ وَيَسْتَحْيِيَهُمْ فِي الْمَجَاعَةِ. ١٩ 19
To deliver from death their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
أَنْفُسُنَا تَنَتَظِرُ الرَّبَّ. عَوْنُنَا وَتُرْسُنَا هُوَ. ٢٠ 20
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: our help and our shield is he.
بِهِ تَفْرَحُ قُلُوبُنَا، لأَنَّنَا عَلَى اسْمِهِ الْقُدُّوسِ تَوَكَّلْنَا. ٢١ 21
For in him shall our heart rejoice: because in his holy name have we trusted.
لِتَكُنْ يَا رَبُّ رَحْمَتُكَ عَلَيْنَا بِمُقْتَضَى رَجَائِنَا فِيكَ. ٢٢ 22
Let thy kindness, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in thee.
