المَزامِير 66

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

To the chief Musician, A Song or Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all ye lands:

٢ 2 تَرَنَّمُوا بِعَظَمَةِ اسْمِهِ وَاجْعَلُوا تَسْبِيحَهُ مَجِيداً.

Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.

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

Say to God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thy enemies submit themselves to thee.

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

All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing to thee; they shall sing to thy name. (Selah)

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

Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.

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

He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there we rejoiced in him.

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

He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)

٨ 8 أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ بَارِكُوا إِلَهَنَا. ارْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ.

O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:

٩ 9 هُوَ الَّذِي اسْتَحْيَانَا، وَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَرْجُلَنَا تَزِلُّ.

Who holdeth our soul in life, and alloweth not our feet to be moved.

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

For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

١١ 11 أَوْقَعْتَنَا فِي الشَّبَكَةِ وَأَلْقَيْتَ حِمْلاً ثَقِيلاً عَلَى ظُهُورِنَا.

Thou hast brought us into the net; thou hast laid affliction upon our loins.

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

Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.

١٣ 13 أَدْخُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ بِمُحْرَقَاتٍ وَأُوْفِيكَ نُذُورِي

I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,

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

Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

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

I will offer to thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)

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

Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

١٧ 17 صَرَخْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِفَمِي وَعَظَّمْتُهُ بِلِسَانِي.

I cried to him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

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

If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:

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

But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

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

Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
