Psalms 135

1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of Jehovah; praise, ye servants of Jehovah,

١ هَلِّلُويَا. سَبِّحُوا اسْمَ الرَّبِّ. سَبِّحُوهُ يَا عَبِيدَ الرَّبِّ،

2 Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our God.

٢ الْقَائِمِينَ عَلَى الْخِدْمَةِ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا.

3 Praise ye Jah; for Jehovah is good: sing psalms unto his name; for it is pleasant.

٣ سَبِّحُوا الرَّبَّ فَإِنَّهُ صَالِحٌ. اشْدُوا لاسْمِهِ، فَإِنَّ ذَاكَ حُلْوٌ.

4 For Jah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, Israel for his own possession.

٤ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ يَعْقُوبَ لِنَفْسِهِ، وَاتَّخَذَ إِسْرَائِيلَ شَعْباً خَاصّاً لَهُ.

5 For I know that Jehovah is great, and our Lord is above all gods.

٥ قَدْ عَرَفْتُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ عَظِيمٌ، وَأَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا أَسْمَى مِنْ جَمِيعِ الآلِهَةِ.

6 Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, he hath done in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all deeps;

٦ كُلَّ مَا شَاءَ صَنَعَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَفِي الأَرْضِ وَالْبِحَارِ، وَفِي كُلِّ الأَغْوَارِ الْعَمِيقَةِ.

7 Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; who maketh lightnings for the rain; who bringeth the wind out of his treasuries:

٧ يُصْعِدُ الأَبْخِرَةَ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ، وَيُحْدِثُ بُرُوقاً لِلْمَطَرِ، وَيُطْلِقُ الرِّيحَ مِنْ خَزَائِنِهِ.

8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast;

٨ هُوَ الَّذِي ضَرَبَ أَبْكَارَ مِصْرَ، أَبْكَارَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ.

9 Who sent signs and miracles into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants;

٩ وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَجْرَى آيَاتٍ وَمُعْجِزَاتٍ فِي وَسَطِكِ يَا مِصْرُ، وَعَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَجَمِيعِ عَبِيدِهِ.

10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings,

١٠ ضَرَبَ أُمَماً عَظِيمَةً، وَقَتَلَ مُلُوكاً مُقْتَدِرِينَ:

11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;

١١ سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ الأَمُورِيِّينَ، وَعُوجَ مَلِكَ بَاشَانَ، وَجَمِيعَ مَمَالِكِ كَنْعَانَ.

12 And gave their land for an inheritance, an inheritance unto Israel his people.

١٢ وَوَهَبَ أَرْضَهُمْ مِيرَاثاً لإِسْرَائِيلَ شَعْبِهِ.

13 Thy name, O Jehovah, is for ever; thy memorial, O Jehovah, from generation to generation.

١٣ اسْمُكَ خَالِدٌ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. ذِكْرُكَ يَا رَبُّ مِنْ جِيلٍ إِلَى جِيلٍ.

14 For Jehovah will judge his people, and will repent in favour of his servants.

١٤ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُحَاكِمُ شَعْبَهُ بِعَدْلٍ وَيَعْطِفُ عَلَى عَبِيدِهِ.

15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:

١٥ أَمَّا أَصْنَامُ الأُمَمِ فَهِيَ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، صَنْعَةُ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ.

16 They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;

١٦ لَهَا أَفْوَاهٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَتَكَلَّمُ، وَعُيُونٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَرَى.

17 They have ears, and they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.

١٧ وَآذَانٌ لَكِنَّهَا لَا تَسْمَعُ. وَلَيْسَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهَا نَسَمَةُ حَيَاةٍ.

18 They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.

١٨ مِثْلَهَا يَصِيرُ صَانِعُوهَا وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْهَا.

19 House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;

١٩ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. يَا بَيْتَ هَارُونَ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ.

20 House of Levi, bless ye Jehovah; ye that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.

٢٠ يَا بَيْتَ لاوِي بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ. يَا خَائِفِي الرَّبِّ بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ.

21 Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem! Hallelujah!

٢١ مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ، الرَّبُّ السَّاكِنُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. هَلِّلُويَا.
