< Psalms 106 >

1 Let the Lord be praised. O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
هَلِّلُويَا. قَدِّمُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ فَإِنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لأَنَّ رَحْمَتَهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ.١
2 Who is able to give an account of the great acts of the Lord, or to make clear all his praise?
مَنْ ذَا يُحَدِّثُ بِأَفْعَالِ الرَّبِّ الْجَبَّارَةِ، وَيُخْبِرُ بِكُلِّ تَسْبِيحِهِ؟٢
3 Happy are they whose decisions are upright, and he who does righteousness at all times.
طُوبَى لِلْعَامِلِينَ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْبِرِّ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ.٣
4 Keep me in mind, O Lord, when you are good to your people; O let your salvation come to me;
يَا رَبُّ، اذْكُرْنِي فِي رِضَاكَ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ. تَعَهَّدْنِي بِخَلاصِكَ.٤
5 So that I may see the well-being of the people of your selection, and have a part in the joy of your nation, and take pride in your heritage.
لِكَيْ أَشْهَدَ نَجَاحَ مُخْتَارِيكَ وَلأَفْرَحَ بِفَرَحِ أُمَّتِكَ، وَأَفْتَخِرَ مَعَ مِيرَاثِكَ.٥
6 We are sinners like our fathers, we have done wrong, our acts are evil.
قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا مَعَ آبَائِنَا وَارْتَكَبْنَا الإِثْمَ وَالشَّرَّ.٦
7 Our fathers did not give thought to your wonders in Egypt; they did not keep in memory the great number of your mercies, but gave you cause for wrath at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
لَمْ يَفْهَمْ آبَاؤُنَا فِي مِصْرَ عَجَائِبَكَ، وَلَمْ يَتَذَكَّرُوا وَفْرَةَ مَرَاحِمِكَ، بَلْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيْكَ عِنْدَ الْبَحْرِ الأَحْمَرِ.٧
8 But he was their saviour because of his name, so that men might see his great power.
لَكِنَّكَ خَلَّصْتَهُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِكَ إِعْلاناً لِقُوَّتِكَ الْعَظِيمَةِ.٨
9 By his word the Red Sea was made dry: and he took them through the deep waters as through the waste land.
انْتَهَرْتَ الْبَحْرَ الأَحْمَرَ، فَجَفَّ، وَاجْتَزْتَ بِهِمْ عَبْرَ اللُّجَجِ كَأَنَّهُمْ عَلَى أَرْضٍ جَافَّةٍ٩
10 And he took them safely out of the hands of their haters, and kept them from the attacks of those who were against them.
أَنْقَذْتَهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ مُبْغِضِيهِمْ وَافْتَدَيْتَهُمْ مِنْ قَبْضَةِ الْعَدُوِّ.١٠
11 And the waters went over their haters; all of them came to an end.
غَمَرَتِ الْمِيَاهُ مُطَارِدِيهِمْ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُمْ وَاحِدٌ.١١
12 Then they had faith in his words; they gave him songs of praise.
عِنْدَئِذٍ آمَنُوا بِكَلامِهِ وَشَدُوا بِتَسْبِيحِهِ.١٢
13 But their memory of his works was short; not waiting to be guided by him,
وَلَكِنْ سَرْعَانَ مَا نَسُوا أَعْمَالَهُ! لَمْ يَنْتَظِرُوا مَشُورَتَهُ.١٣
14 They gave way to their evil desires in the waste land, and put God to the test in the dry places.
بَلِ انْصَاعُوا لِشَهْوَتِهِمِ الشَّدِيدَةِ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَتَحَدَّوْا اللهَ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ.١٤
15 And he gave them their request, but sent a wasting disease into their souls.
فَلَبَّى سُؤْلَهُمْ وَلَكِنَّهُ أَصَابَ نُفُوسَهُمْ بِالسُّقْمِ.١٥
16 They were full of envy against Moses among the tents, and against Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.
ثُمَّ حَسَدُوا مُوسَى فِي الْمُخَيَّمِ، وَأَيْضاً هَارُونَ المُقَدَّسَ لِلرَّبِّ.١٦
17 The earth opening put an end to Dathan, covering up Abiram and his band.
انْفَتَحَتِ الأَرْضُ وَابْتَلَعَتْ دَاثَانَ، وَأَطْبَقَتْ عَلَى قَوْمِ أَبِيرَامَ.١٧
18 And a fire was lighted among their tents; the sinners were burned up by the flames.
وَاشْتَعَلَتْ نَارٌ وَسَطَ جَمَاعَةِ قُورَحَ، أَحْرَقَ لَهِيبُهَا الأَشْرَارَ.١٨
19 They made a young ox in Horeb, and gave worship to an image of gold.
صَاغُوا عِجْلاً فِي حُورِيبَ، وَسَجَدُوا لِتِمْثَالٍ مَسْبُوكٍ.١٩
20 And their glory was changed into the image of an ox, whose food is grass.
اسْتَبْدَلُوا إِلَهَهُمُ الْمَجِيدَ بِصُورَةِ ثَوْرٍ آكِلِ عُشْبٍ.٢٠
21 They had no memory of God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt;
نَسُوا اللهَ مُخَلِّصَهُمُ الَّذِي صَنَعَ الْعَظَائِمَ فِي مِصْرَ،٢١
22 Works of wonder in the land of Ham, and things of fear by the Red Sea.
الْمُعْجِزَاتِ فِي أَرْضِ حَامٍ، وَالآيَاتِ الْمُخِيفَةَ عِنْدَ الْبَحْرِ الأَحْمَرِ.٢٢
23 And he was purposing to put an end to them if Moses, his special servant, had not gone up before him, between him and his people, turning back his wrath, to keep them from destruction.
فَأَوْشَكَ أَنْ يُبِيدَهُمْ كَقَوْلِهِ، لَوْلَا أَنَّ مُوسَى مُخْتَارَهُ وَقَفَ فِي الثَّغْرَةِ أَمَامَهُ يَشْفَعُ فِيهِمْ لِيَرُدَّ غَضَبَهُ فَلَا يُهْلِكَهُمْ.٢٣
24 They were disgusted with the good land; they had no belief in his word;
ثُمَّ اسْتَهَانُوا بِالأَرْضِ الشَّهِيَّةِ وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقُوا كَلامَ الرَّبِّ.٢٤
25 Talking against him secretly in their tents, they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord.
بَلْ تَذَمَّرُوا دَاخِلَ خِيَامِهِمْ، غَيْرَ مُنْصِتِينَ لِصَوْتِ الرَّبِّ.٢٥
26 So he made an oath against them, to put an end to them in the waste land:
فَأَقْسَمَ أَنْ يُهْلِكَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ،٢٦
27 That their children might be mixed among the nations, and sent away into other lands.
يُسْقِطَ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ، وَيُشَتِّتَهُمْ فِي البُلْدَانِ.٢٧
28 And they were joined to Baal-peor, and took part in the offerings to the dead.
وَتَعَلَّقُوا بِبَعْلِ فَغُورَ وَأَكَلُوا ذَبَائِحَ الْمَوْتَى.٢٨
29 So they made him angry by their behaviour; and he sent disease on them.
وَأَثَارُوا غَضَبَ الرَّبِّ بِأَعْمَالِهِمِ الشِّرِّيرَةِ، فَتَفَشَّى بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَأٌ مُفَاجِئٌ.٢٩
30 Then Phinehas got up, and made prayer for them; and the disease went no farther.
فَوَقَفَ فِينَحَاسُ وَأَجْرَى الْقَضَاءَ، فَامْتَنَعَ الْوَبَأُ.٣٠
31 And all the generations coming after him kept the memory of his righteousness for ever.
فَحُسِبَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ بِرّاً جِيلاً فَجِيلاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ.٣١
32 They made God angry again at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled because of them;
ثُمَّ أَسْخَطُوا الرَّبَّ عِنْدَ مِيَاهِ مَرِيبَةَ (أَي الْخُصُومَةِ) حَتَّى تَأَذَّى مُوسَى بِسَبَبِهِمْ،٣٢
33 For they made his spirit bitter, and he said unwise things.
إِذِ اسْتَفَزُّوا رُوحَهُ فَأَفْرَطَتْ شَفَتَاهُ بِالكَلامِ.٣٣
34 They did not put an end to the peoples, as the Lord had said;
لَمْ يَسْتَأْصِلُوا الشُّعُوبَ مِثْلَمَا أَمَرَهُمُ الرَّبُّ.٣٤
35 But they were joined to the nations, learning their works.
بَلْ خَالَطُوا الأُمَمَ الْوَثَنِيَّةَ وَتَعَلَّمُوا أَعْمَالَهُمْ.٣٥
36 And they gave worship to images; which were a danger to them:
تَعَبَّدُوا لأَوْثَانِهِمْ فَصَارَتْ لَهُمْ فَخّاً.٣٦
37 They even made offerings of their sons and their daughters to evil spirits,
ضَحَّوْا بِأَبْنَائِهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ.٣٧
38 And gave the blood of their sons and their daughters who had done no wrong, offering them to the images of Canaan; and the land was made unclean with blood.
سَفَكُوا دَماً بَرِيئاً، دَمَ بَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمِ الَّذِينَ ذَبَحُوهُمْ لأَصْنَامِ الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ، فَتَدَنَّسَتِ الأَرْضُ بِالدِّمَاءِ.٣٨
39 So they became unclean through their works, going after their evil desires.
لِذَلِكَ تَنَجَّسُوا بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ، وَخَانُوا الرَّبَّ بِأَفْعَالِهِمْ٣٩
40 Then the wrath of the Lord was burning against his people, and he was angry with his heritage.
فَالْتَهَبَ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى شَعْبِهِ، وَمَقَتَ مِيرَاثَهُ.٤٠
41 And he gave them into the hands of the nations; and they were ruled by their haters.
وَأَسْلَمَهُمْ إِلَى أَيْدِي الأُمَمِ، فَتَسَلَّطَ عَلَيْهِمْ مُبْغِضُوهُمْ.٤١
42 By them they were crushed, and made low under their hands.
وَضَايَقَهُمْ أَعْدَاؤُهُمْ حَتَّى ذَلُّوا تَحْتَ أَيْدِيهِمْ.٤٢
43 Again and again he made them free; but their hearts were turned against his purpose, and they were overcome by their sins.
مَرَّاتٍ كَثِيرَةً أَنْقَذَهُمْ، أَمَّا هُمْ فَعَصَوْهُ وَانْحَطُّوا فِي آثَامِهِمْ.٤٣
44 But when their cry came to his ears, he had pity on their trouble:
غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى ضِيقَتِهِمْ إِذْ سَمِعَ صُرَاخَهُمْ.٤٤
45 And kept in mind his agreement with them, and in his great mercy gave them forgiveness.
تَذَكَّرَ عَهْدَهُ لَهُمْ وَرَقَّ لَهُمْ حَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ رَحْمَتِهِ،٤٥
46 He put pity into the hearts of those who made them prisoners.
فَأَنَالَهُمْ حُظْوَةً لَدَى جَمِيعِ آسِرِيهِمْ.٤٦
47 Be our saviour, O Lord our God, and let us come back together from among the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name, and have glory in your praise.
خَلِّصْنَا أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، وَاجْمَعْ شَمْلَنَا مِنْ بَيْنِ الأُمَمِ لِنَرْفَعَ الشُّكْرَ لاسْمِكَ الْقُدُّوسِ وَنَفْتَخِرَ بِتَسْبِيحِكَ.٤٧
48 Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.
مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الأَزَلِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. وَلْيَقُلِ الشَّعْبُ كُلُّهُ: آمِين. هَلِّلُويَا.٤٨
