المَزامِير 66

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

For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!

٢ 2 تَرَنَّمُوا بِعَظَمَةِ اسْمِهِ وَاجْعَلُوا تَسْبِيحَهُ مَجِيداً.

Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!

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

Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.

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

All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)

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

Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of 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 river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.

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

He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don’t let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)

٨ 8 أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ بَارِكُوا إِلَهَنَا. ارْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ.

Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,

٩ 9 هُوَ الَّذِي اسْتَحْيَانَا، وَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَرْجُلَنَا تَزِلُّ.

who preserves our life amongst the living, and doesn’t allow our feet to be moved.

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

For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.

١١ 11 أَوْقَعْتَنَا فِي الشَّبَكَةِ وَأَلْقَيْتَ حِمْلاً ثَقِيلاً عَلَى ظُهُورِنَا.

You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.

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

You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance.

١٣ 13 أَدْخُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ بِمُحْرَقَاتٍ وَأُوْفِيكَ نُذُورِي

I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,

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

which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.

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

I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering 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 you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.

١٧ 17 صَرَخْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِفَمِي وَعَظَّمْتُهُ بِلِسَانِي.

I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.

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

If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.

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

But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.

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

Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
