Psalms 132

1 Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:

١ تَرْنِيمَةُ الْمَصَاعِدِ اذْكُرْ يَا رَبُّ دَاوُدَ وَكُلَّ مُعَانَاتِهِ.

2 How he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the mighty God of Jacob;

٢ اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَقْسَمَ لِلرَّبِّ وَنَذَرَ لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ:

3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

٣ «لَنْ أَدْخُلَ بَيْتَ سُكْنَايَ، وَلَنْ أَعْلُوَ فِرَاشِي،

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,

٤ وَلَنْ أُعْطِيَ عَيْنَيَّ نَوْماً وَلَا أَجْفَانِي نُعَاساً،

5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

٥ حَتَّى أَبْنِيَ مَقَاماً لِتَابُوتِ الرَّبِّ، وَمَسْكِناً لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ».

6 See, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

٦ فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ، وَفِي حُقُولِ الْوَعْرِ وَجَدْنَاهُ،

7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

٧ فَقُلْنَا: «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، وَلْنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ».

8 Arise, O LORD, into your rest; you, and the ark of your strength.

٨ عُدْ إِلَى هَيْكَلِكَ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزَّتِكَ.

9 Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let your saints shout for joy.

٩ لِيَرْتَدِ كَهَنَتُكَ البِرَّ ثَوْباً، وَلِيَهْتِفْ أَتْقِيَاؤُكَ فَرَحاً.

10 For your servant David’s sake turn not away the face of your anointed.

١٠ مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرْفُضْ طَلَبَ مَلِكِكَ الْمَمْسُوحِ.

11 The LORD has sworn in truth to David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of your body will I set on your throne.

١١ قَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ قَسَماً صَادِقاً لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أُقِيمُ مَلِكاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ.

12 If your children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit on your throne for ever more.

١٢ إِذَا حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي الَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، يَجْلِسُ بَنُوهُمْ أَيْضاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ».

13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his habitation.

١٣ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَرَغِبَ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُ مَسْكَناً.

14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

١٤ وَقَالَ: «هَذِهِ مَقَرُّ رَاحَتِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فِيهَا أَسْكُنُ لأَنِّي أَحْبَبْتُهَا.

15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

١٥ أُبَارِكُ غَلَّاتِهَا بَرَكَةً جَزِيلَةً، وَأُشْبِعُ مَسَاكِينَهَا خُبْزاً.

16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

١٦ أُلْبِسُ كَهَنَتَهَا ثَوْبَ الْخَلاصِ، فَيَهْتِفُ قِدِّيسُوهَا مُتَرَنِّمِينَ.

17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.

١٧ أُقِيمُ هُنَاكَ مَلِكاً عَظِيماً مِنْ أَصْلِ دَاوُدَ، وَأُعِدُّ سِرَاجاً مُنِيراً لِمَنْ أَمْسَحُهُ.

18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but on himself shall his crown flourish.

١٨ أَكْسُو أَعْدَاءَهُ خِزْياً. أَمَّا هُوَ، فَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ يَتَأَلَّقُ تَاجُهُ».
