المَزامِير 66

١ 1 لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ. تَسْبِيحَةٌ. مَزْمُورٌ اهْتِفِي لِلهِ يَا كُلَّ الأَرْضِ.

For the music director. A song. A psalm. Everyone on earth, shout for joy to God!

٢ 2 تَرَنَّمُوا بِعَظَمَةِ اسْمِهِ وَاجْعَلُوا تَسْبِيحَهُ مَجِيداً.

Sing about his marvelous reputation; praise him for his goodness!

٣ 3 قُولُوا لِلهِ: «مَا أَرْوَعَ أَعْمَالَكَ». يَتَمَلَّقُكَ أَعْدَاؤُكَ لأَنَّ قُوَّتَكَ عَظِيمَةٌ.

Tell God, “What you do is awesome! Your enemies are forced to bow before you because of your power.

٤ 4 كُلُّ الأَرْضِ تَسْجُدُ لَكَ وَتُسَبِّحُكَ. الْجَمِيعُ يَلْهَجُونَ بِاسْمِكَ.

Everyone on earth worships you, singing your praises—singing praises because of who you are.” (Selah)

٥ 5 تَعَالَوْا انْظُرُوا أَعْمَالَ اللهِ وَأَفْعَالَهُ الْمُرْهِبَةَ مَعَ بَنِي آدَمَ.

Come and see what God has done! What he does for people is truly awesome!

٦ 6 حَوَّلَ الْبَحْرَ أَرْضاً يَابِسَةً، وَاجْتَازُوا فِي النَّهْرِ بِأَقْدَامِهِمْ. هُنَاكَ فَرِحْنَا بِهِ.

He turned the Red Sea into dry land, and his people walked across through the waters. We celebrated there because of what he did.

٧ 7 يَحْكُمُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ بِقُوَّتِهِ، وَعَيْنَاهُ تُرَاقِبَانِ الأُمَمَ، فَلَا يَتَشَامَخُ الْمُتَمَرِّدُونَ.

He rules forever through his power. He keeps an eye on the nations, watching to make sure no rebels rise up in opposition. (Selah)

٨ 8 أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ بَارِكُوا إِلَهَنَا. ارْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ.

Let all people everywhere bless our God, and loudly sing praises to him.

٩ 9 هُوَ الَّذِي اسْتَحْيَانَا، وَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَرْجُلَنَا تَزِلُّ.

He has kept us alive, and he has not let us fall.

١٠ 10 فَإِنَّكَ قَدِ اخْتَبَرْتَنَا يَا اللهُ، فَنَقَّيْتَنَا كَمَا تُنَقَّى الْفِضَّةُ.

God, you have tested us, refining us like silver.

١١ 11 أَوْقَعْتَنَا فِي الشَّبَكَةِ وَأَلْقَيْتَ حِمْلاً ثَقِيلاً عَلَى ظُهُورِنَا.

You caught us in your net; you placed heavy burdens on our backs.

١٢ 12 سَلَّطْتَ أُنَاساً عَلَيْنَا. اجْتَزْنَا فِي النَّارِ وَالْمَاءِ، وَلَكِنَّكَ أَخْرَجْتَنَا إِلَى أَرَاضٍ خَصِيبَةٍ.

You let people ride roughshod over us; we suffered through fire and flooding, but you brought us to a safe place.

١٣ 13 أَدْخُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ بِمُحْرَقَاتٍ وَأُوْفِيكَ نُذُورِي

I will come to your Temple with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my promises to you,

١٤ 14 الَّتِي نَطَقَتْ بِها شَفَتَايَ فِي وَقْتِ ضِيقِي، وَتَكَلَّمَ بِها فَمِي فِي بَلِيَّتِي.

the promises I made when I was in trouble.

١٥ 15 أُقَرِّبُ لَكَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ سَمِينَةً مِنْ كِبَاشٍ مَعَ بَخُورٍ. أُقَدِّمُ بَقَراً مَعَ تُيُوسٍ.

I will sacrifice burnt offerings to you of fattened livestock—the smoke of the sacrifice of rams, offerings of bulls and goats. (Selah)

١٦ 16 تَعَالَوْا اسْمَعُوا يَا جَمِيعَ خَائِفِي اللهِ، فَأُحَدِّثَكُمْ بِمَا فَعَلَ لِنَفْسِي.

Come and listen, everyone who honors God, and I will tell you all he has done for me.

١٧ 17 صَرَخْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِفَمِي وَعَظَّمْتُهُ بِلِسَانِي.

I called out to him, and praised him with my voice.

١٨ 18 إِنْ تَعَهَّدْتُ إِثْماً فِي قَلْبِي لَا يَسْتَمِعُ لِيَ الرَّبُّ.

If my thinking had been sinful, the Lord would not have listened to me.

١٩ 19 وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ قَدِ اسْتَجَابَ لِي. أَصْغَى إِلَى صَوْتِ صَلاتِي.

But God did hear me! He listened to what I had to say in my prayer!

٢٠ 20 تَبَارَكَ اللهُ الَّذِي لَمْ يُقْصِ عَنْهُ صَلاتِي، وَلَا حَجَبَ عَنِّي رَحْمَتَهُ.

Praise God, who did not disregard my prayer or take his trustworthy love from me.
