المَزامِير 45
| لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ: عَلَى السُّوسَنِّ. مَزْمُورٌ تَعْلِيمِيٌّ لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. تَرْنِيمَةُ مَحَبَّةٍ فَاضَ قَلْبِي بِكَلامٍ صَالِحٍ: إِنِّي أُخَاطِبُ الْمَلِكَ بِمَا قَدْ أَنْشَأْتُهُ، وَلِسَانِي فَصِيحٌ كَقَلَمِ الْكَاتِبِ الْمَاهِرِ. | ١ 1 |
For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.” A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song. My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.
| أَنْتَ أَبْرَعُ جَمَالاً مِنْ كُلِّ بَنِي الْبَشَرِ. انْسَكَبَتِ النِّعْمَةُ عَلَى شَفَتَيْكَ، لِذَلِكَ بَارَكَكَ اللهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢ 2 |
You are the most excellent of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.
| فِي جَلالِكَ وَبَهَائِكَ تَقَلَّدْ سَيْفَكَ عَلَى فَخْذِكَ أَيُّهَا الْمُقْتَدِرُ، | ٣ 3 |
Strap your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, in your splendor and your majesty.
| وَبِجَلالِكَ ارْكَبْ ظَافِراً لأَجْلِ الْحَقِّ وَالْوَدَاعَةِ وَالْبِرِّ، فَتَقْتَحِمَ يَمِينُكَ الأَهْوَالَ. | ٤ 4 |
In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand display awesome deeds.
| سِهَامُكَ مَسْنُونَةٌ تَخْتَرِقُ أَعْمَاقَ قُلُوبِ أَعْدَاءِ الْمَلِكِ، وَتَسْقُطُ الشُّعُوبُ صَرْعَى تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْكَ. | ٥ 5 |
Your arrows are sharp. The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king’s enemies.
| عَرْشُكَ يَا اللهُ إِلَى دَهْرِ الدُّهُورِ، وَصَوْلَجَانُ مُلْكِكَ عَادِلٌ وَمُسْتَقِيمٌ. | ٦ 6 |
Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.
| أَحْبَبْتَ الْبِرَّ وَأَبْغَضْتَ الإِثْمَ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ مَسَحَكَ اللهُ (مَلِكاً) بِدُهْنِ الابْتِهَاجِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ رُفَقَائِكَ (الْمُلُوكِ). | ٧ 7 |
You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
| ثِيَابُكَ كُلُّهَا مُعَطَّرَةٌ بِالْمُرِّ وَدُهْنِ اللُّبَانِ. مِنْ قُصُورِ الْعَاجِ صَدَحَتْ مُوسِيقَى الآلاتِ الْوَتَرِيَّةِ فَأَطْرَبَتْكَ. | ٨ 8 |
All your garments smell like myrrh, aloes, and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.
| أَمِيرَاتٌ بَيْنَ حَظِيَّاتِكَ. جَلَسَتِ الْمَلِكَةُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ مُزَيَّنَةً بِذَهَبِ أُوفِيرَ. | ٩ 9 |
Kings’ daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.
| اسْمَعِي يَا بِنْتُ وَانْظُرِي، وَأَرْهِفِي إِلَيَّ أُذُنَكِ، وَانْسَيْ شَعْبَكِ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكِ | ١٠ 10 |
Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father’s house.
| فَيَشْتَهِيَ الْمَلِكُ جَمَالَكِ، لأَنَّهُ هُوَ سَيِّدُكِ فَاسْجُدِي لَهُ. | ١١ 11 |
So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.
| بِنْتُ صُورٍ أَغْنَى الشُّعُوبِ تَسْتَرْضِيكِ بِهَدِيَّةٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people entreat your favor.
| كُلُّهَا مَجْدٌ ابْنَةُ الْمَلِكِ فِي قَصْرِهَا. ثِيَابُهَا مَنْسُوجَةٌ بِذَهَبٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
The princess inside is all glorious. Her clothing is interwoven with gold.
| تُزَفُّ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ بِحُلَلٍ مُطَرَّزَةٍ، وَوَصِيفَاتُهَا العَذَارَى يَتْبَعْنَهَا قَادِمَاتٍ إِلَيْكَ فِي مَوْكِبٍ حَافِلٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
She shall be led to the king in embroidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.
| يُحْضَرْنَ بِفَرَحٍ وَابْتِهَاجٍ. يَدْخُلْنَ إِلَى قَصْرِ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٥ 15 |
With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the king’s palace.
| يُصْبِحُ أَبْنَاؤُكَ يَوْماً مُلُوكاً كَآبَائِهِمْ فَيَتَرَبَّعُونَ عَلَى عُرُوشٍ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Your sons will take the place of your fathers. You shall make them princes in all the earth.
| أُخَلِّدُ ذِكْرَى اسْمِكَ فِي كُلِّ الأَجْيَالِ، وَتَحْمَدُكَ الشُّعُوبُ إِلَى الدَّهْرِ وَالأَبَدِ. | ١٧ 17 |
I will make your name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.
