١ 1 لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى الْجَتِّيَّةِ مَزْمُورٌ لِبَنِي قُورَحَ مَا أَحْلَى مَسَاكِنَكَ يَا رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ!

For the chief musician; set to the Gittith style. A psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely is the place where you live, Yahweh of hosts!

٢ 2 تَتُوقُ بَلْ تَحِنُّ نَفْسِي إِلَى دِيَارِ الرَّبِّ. قَلْبِي وَجِسْمِي يُرَنِّمَانِ بِفَرَحٍ لِلإِلَهِ الْحَيِّ.

I long for the courts of Yahweh, my desire for it has made me exhausted. My heart and all of my being call out to the living God.

٣ 3 الْعُصْفُورُ أَيْضاً وَجَدَ لَهُ وَكْراً، وَالْيَمَامَةُ عَثَرَتْ لِنَفْسِهَا عَلَى عُشٍّ تَضَعُ فِيهِ فِرَاخَهَا، بِجِوَارِ مَذَابِحِكَ يَا رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ، يَا مَلِكِي وَإِلَهِي.

Even the sparrow has found her a house and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young near your altars, Yahweh of hosts, my King, and my God.

٤ 4 طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَسْكُنُونَ فِي بَيْتِكَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يُسَبِّحُونَكَ دَائِماً.

Blessed are they who live in your house; they praise you continually. (Selah)

٥ 5 طُوبَى لأُنَاسٍ أَنْتَ قُوَّتُهُمْ. الْمُتَلَهِّفُونَ لاتِّبَاعِ طُرُقِكَ الْمُفْضِيَةِ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ المُقَدَّسِ.

Blessed is the man whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways up to Zion.

٦ 6 وَإِذْ يَعْبُرُونَ فِي وَادِي الْبَكَا الْجَافِّ، يَجْعَلُونَهُ يَنَابِيعَ مَاءٍ، وَيَغْمُرُهُمُ الْمَطَرُ الْخَرِيفِيُّ بِالْبَرَكَاتِ.

Passing through the Valley of Tears, they find springs of water to drink. The early rains cover it with blessings.

٧ 7 يَنْمُونَ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ إِلَى قُوَّةٍ، إِذْ يَمْثُلُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَامَ اللهِ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ.

They go from strength to strength; every one of them appears before God in Zion.

٨ 8 يَا رَبُّ إِلَهَ الْجُنُودِ اسْمَعْ صَلاتِي، وَأَصْغِ إِلَيَّ يَا إِلَهَ يَعْقُوبَ.

Yahweh God of hosts, hear my prayer; God of Jacob, listen to what I am saying! (Selah)

٩ 9 يَا اللهُ مِجَنَّنَا، انْظُرْ بِعَيْنِ الرَّحْمَةِ إِلَى مَنْ مَسَحْتَهُ مَلِكاً.

God, watch over our shield; show concern for your anointed.

١٠ 10 إِنَّ يَوْماً وَاحِداً أَقْضِيهِ دَاخِلَ دِيَارِكَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ يَوْمٍ خَارِجَهَا. اخْتَرْتُ أَنْ أَقِفَ عَلَى الْعَتَبَةِ فِي بَيْتِ إِلَهِي عَلَى السَّكَنِ فِي خِيَامِ الأَشْرَارِ.

For one day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to live within the tents of the wicked.

١١ 11 لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الإِلَهَ شَمْسٌ وَتُرْسٌ. الرَّبُّ يُعْطِي نِعْمَةً وَمَجْداً؛ لَا يَمْنَعُ أَيَّ خَيْرٍ عَنِ السَّالِكِينَ بِالاسْتِقَامَةِ.

For Yahweh God is our sun and shield; Yahweh will give grace and glory; he does not withhold any good thing from those who walk in integrity.

١٢ 12 يَا رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ، طُوبَى لِلإِنْسَانِ الْمُتَّكِلِ عَلَيْكَ.

Yahweh of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
