< Psalms 45 >

1 To the chief music-maker; put to Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart is flowing over with good things; my words are of that which I have made for a king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. عَلَى «ٱلسُّوسَنِّ». لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. قَصِيدَةٌ. تَرْنِيمَةُ مَحَبَّةٍ فَاضَ قَلْبِي بِكَلَامٍ صَالِحٍ. مُتَكَلِّمٌ أَنَا بِإِنْشَائِي لِلْمَلِكِ. لِسَانِي قَلَمُ كَاتِبٍ مَاهِرٍ.١
2 You are fairer than the children of men; grace is flowing through your lips; for this cause the blessing of God is with you for ever.
أَنْتَ أَبْرَعُ جَمَالًا مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ. ٱنْسَكَبَتِ ٱلنِّعْمَةُ عَلَى شَفَتَيْكَ، لِذَلِكَ بَارَكَكَ ٱللهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.٢
3 Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power.
تَقَلَّدْ سَيْفَكَ عَلَى فَخْذِكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَبَّارُ، جَلَالَكَ وَبَهَاءَكَ.٣
4 And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear.
وَبِجَلَالِكَ ٱقْتَحِمِ. ٱرْكَبْ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلدَّعَةِ وَٱلْبِرِّ، فَتُرِيَكَ يَمِينُكَ مَخَاوِفَ.٤
5 Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.
نَبْلُكَ ٱلْمَسْنُونَةُ فِي قَلْبِ أَعْدَاءِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. شُعُوبٌ تَحْتَكَ يَسْقُطُونَ.٥
6 Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.
كُرْسِيُّكَ يَا ٱللهُ إِلَى دَهْرِ ٱلدُّهُورِ. قَضِيبُ ٱسْتِقَامَةٍ قَضِيبُ مُلْكِكَ.٦
7 You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings.
أَحْبَبْتَ ٱلْبِرَّ وَأَبْغَضْتَ ٱلْإِثْمَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ مَسَحَكَ ٱللهُ إِلَهُكَ بِدُهْنِ ٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ رُفَقَائِكَ.٧
8 Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.
كُلُّ ثِيَابِكَ مُرٌّ وَعُودٌ وَسَلِيخَةٌ. مِنْ قُصُورِ ٱلْعَاجِ سَرَّتْكَ ٱلْأَوْتَارُ.٨
9 Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir.
بَنَاتُ مُلُوكٍ بَيْنَ حَظِيَّاتِكَ. جُعِلَتِ ٱلْمَلِكَةُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ بِذَهَبِ أُوفِيرٍ.٩
10 O daughter, give thought and attention, and let your ear be open; no longer keep in mind your people, and your father's house;
اِسْمَعِي يَا بِنْتُ وَٱنْظُرِي، وَأَمِيلِي أُذُنَكِ، وَٱنْسَيْ شَعْبَكِ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكِ،١٠
11 So will the king have a great desire for you, seeing how beautiful you are; because he is your lord, give him honour.
فَيَشْتَهِيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ حُسْنَكِ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ سَيِّدُكِ فَٱسْجُدِي لَهُ.١١
12 And the daughters of Tyre will be there with an offering; those who have wealth among the people will be looking for your approval.
وَبِنْتُ صُورٍ أَغْنَى ٱلشُّعُوبِ تَتَرَضَّى وَجْهَكِ بِهَدِيَّةٍ.١٢
13 In the great house the king's daughter is all shining: her clothing is worked with gold.
كُلُّهَا مَجْدٌ ٱبْنَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي خِدْرِهَا. مَنْسُوجَةٌ بِذَهَبٍ مَلَابِسُهَا.١٣
14 She will come before the king in robes of needlework; the virgins in her train will come before you.
بِمَلَابِسَ مُطَرَّزَةٍ تُحْضَرُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. في إِثْرِهَا عَذَارَى صَاحِبَاتُهَا. مُقَدَّمَاتٌ إِلَيْكَ.١٤
15 With joy and rapture will they come; they will go into the king's house.
يُحْضَرْنَ بِفَرَحٍ وَٱبْتِهَاجٍ. يَدْخُلْنَ إِلَى قَصْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.١٥
16 Your children will take the place of your fathers; so that you may make them rulers over all the earth.
عِوَضًا عَنْ آبَائِكَ يَكُونُ بَنُوكَ، تُقِيمُهُمْ رُؤَسَاءَ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.١٦
17 I will keep the memory of your name living through all generations; and because of this the people will give you praise for ever.
أَذْكُرُ ٱسْمَكَ فِي كُلِّ دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ تَحْمَدُكَ ٱلشُّعُوبُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْأَبَدِ.١٧
