Psalms 68
1 “To the chief musician, by David, a Psalm or song.” Oh that God would arise, that his enemies might be scattered, and those that hate him might flee before him.
| لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ لِدَاوُدَ. مَزْمُورٌ. تَسْبِيحَةٌ يَقُومُ اللهُ فَيَتَبَدَّدُ أَعْدَاؤُهُ وَيَفِرُّ مُبْغِضُوهُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ. | ١ |
2 As smoke is driven off, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
| كَمَا يَتَلاشَى الدُّخَانُ تُلاشِيهِمْ، وَكَمَا يَذُوبُ الشَّمْعُ قُرْبَ النَّارِ يَهْلِكُ الأَشْرَارُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ. | ٢ |
3 But the righteous shall rejoice; they shall exult before God: yea, they shall be exceedingly joyful.
| أَمَّا الأَبْرَارُ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَفْرَحُونَ وَيَبْتَهِجُونَ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَيَغْتَبِطُونَ سُرُوراً. | ٣ |
4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name; extol him who rideth upon the heavens: the Everlasting is his name, and rejoice before him.
| رَنِّمُوا للهِ، اشْدُوا لاسْمِهِ. مَهِّدُوا طَرِيقاً لِلرَّاكِبِ فِي الْقِفَارِ ظَافِراً. إِنَّ اسْمَهُ «الْكَائِنُ». وَتَهَلَّلُوا فِي مَحْضَرِهِ. | ٤ |
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
| اللهُ الْمُقِيمُ فِي مَسْكَنِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ هُوَ أَبُو الْيَتَامَى وَقَاضِي الأَرَامِلِ. | ٥ |
6 God places those who are solitary in the midst of their families: he bringeth out those who are bound unto happiness; but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
| يُسْكِنُ اللهُ الْمُتَوَحِّدِينَ بَيْتاً، وَيُطْلِقُ الْمُقَيَّدِينَ إِلَى النَّجَاحِ، أَمَّا الْمُتَمَرِّدُونَ فَيَسْكُنُونَ أَرْضاً مُحْرِقَةً. | ٦ |
7 O God, when thou didst go forth before thy people, when thou didst tread along through the wilderness—Selah—
| يَا اللهُ، عِنْدَمَا خَرَجْتَ أَمَامَ شَعْبِكَ، وَقُدْتَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، | ٧ |
8 The earth quaked, also the heavens dropped at the presence of God, yea, this Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
| رَجَفَتِ الأَرْضُ، وَهَطَلَتِ السَّمَاءُ مَطَراً، وارْتَعَدَ جَبَلُ سِينَاءَ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ اللهِ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٨ |
9 Rain of beneficence didst thou pour down, O God, whereby thou didst truly strengthen thy heritage, when it was weary.
| مَطَراً غَزِيراً سَكَبْتَ يَا اللهُ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ مِيرَاثِكَ، وَعِنْدَ إِعْيَائِهِ أَنْتَ شَدَّدْتَهُ. | ٩ |
10 Thy assembly dwelt therein: thou didst prepare it with thy goodness for the afflicted [people]. O God,
| هُنَاكَ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ حَلَّ قَطِيعُكَ، وَأَنْتَ بِجُودِكَ وَفَّرْتَ خَيْراً لِلْمَسَاكِينِ، يَا اللهُ. | ١٠ |
11 The Lord gave [happy] tidings; they are published by the female messengers, a numerous host.
| يُصْدِرُ السَّيِّدُ أَمْرَهُ فَيَنْهَزِمُ الْعَدُوُّ فَيَحْمِلُ جَمْعٌ غَفِيرٌ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ بُشْرَى النَّصْرِ. | ١١ |
12 The kings of the armies flee away—flee away: yet she that tarried at home divideth the spoil.
| يَهْرُبُ مُلُوكُ الْجُيُوشِ، نَعَمْ يَهْرُبُونَ. أَمَّا النِّسَاءُ المُلازِمَاتُ الْبُيُوتَ فَيَقْتَسِمْنَ الْغَنَائِمَ. | ١٢ |
13 When ye lie still between the folds [of your cattle], [ye will be like] the wings of the dove covered with sliver, and her pinions shining with flaming gold.
| مَعَ أَنَّكُمْ رَقَدْتُمْ بَيْنَ الْحَظَائِرِ تَكُونُونَ كَحَمَامَةٍ أَجْنِحَتُهَا مُغَشَّاةٌ بِالْفِضَّةِ، وَرِيشُهَا بِالذَّهَبِ الأَصْفَرِ. | ١٣ |
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in the midst of her, then even in darkness shone light [as pure] as snow.
| عِنْدَمَا بَدَّدَ الْقَدِيرُ مُلُوكاً فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، ابْيَضَّتِ الأَرْضُ كَالثَّلْجِ فِي جَبَلِ صَلْمُونَ. | ١٤ |
15 A mountain of God is the mount of Bashan; many peaks hath the mount of Bashan.
| جَبَلُ بَاشَانَ هُوَ جَبَلُ اللهِ؛ جَبَلٌ كَثِيرُ الْقِمَمِ. | ١٥ |
16 Why watch ye enviously, ye many-peaked mountains, yonder mountain which God hath chosen for his residence? yea, the Lord will also dwell [there] for ever.
| أَيَّتُهَا الْجِبَالُ الْكَثِيرَةُ الْقِمَمِ لِمَاذَا تَتَفَرَّسْنَ بِحَسَدٍ فِي الْجَبَلِ الَّذِي اشْتَهَاهُ اللهُ لِسُكْنَاهُ؟ إِنَّ اللهَ سَيَسْكُنُ فِيهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ١٦ |
17 The chariots of God are two myriads; thousands of angels [follow him]: the Lord is among them: so is Sinai holy [among mountains].
| مَرْكَبَاتُ الرَّبِّ كَثِيرَةٌ لَا تُحْصَى والرَّبُّ فِي وَسَطِهَا، فَصَارَ جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ مُمَاثِلاً لِجَبَلِ سِينَاءَ فِي القَدَاسَةِ. | ١٧ |
18 Thou didst ascend on high, lead away captives, receive gifts among men, yea, even the rebellious, to dwell among them. O Lord God.
| يَصْعَدُ إِلَى الْعُلَى وَيَأْخُذُ مَعَهُ سَبَايَا كَثِيرِينَ؛ يُوَزِّعُ الْغَنَائِمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَحَتَّى عَلَى الَّذِينَ تَمَرَّدُوا قَبْلاً عَلَى مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ. | ١٨ |
19 Blessed be the Lord; day by day he loadeth us [with benefits]; our God is our salvation. (Selah)
| تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَنَا يَوْماً فَيَوْماً. إِنَّهُ إِلَهُ خَلاصِنَا. | ١٩ |
20 Our God is to us the God of salvation: and by the Eternal the Lord are the escapes from death.
| إِلَهُنَا هُوَ إلَهُ الْخَلاصِ، وَعِنْدَ الرَّبِّ السَّيِّدِ مَنَافِذُ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ. | ٢٠ |
21 But God will crush the head of his enemies, the hairy skull of him who walketh in his guiltiness.
| حَقّاً سَيَضْرِبُ الرَّبُّ رُؤُوسَ أَعْدَائِهِ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْهَامَةَ الْمَكْسُوَّةَ شَعْراً لِمَنْ يُمْعِنُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْمَعَاصِي. | ٢١ |
22 The Lord hath said, From Bashan will I bring back, I will bring back from the depths of the sea:
| يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ: «سَأُرْجِعُ أَعْدَاءَكُمْ مِنْ بَاشَانَ، سَأُرْجِعُهُمْ مِنْ أَعْمَاقِ الْبَحْرِ، | ٢٢ |
23 In order that thou mayest wade with thy feet in blood, feeding the tongue of thy dogs from the enemies' blood.
| فَتَغْمِسُونَ أَرْجُلَكُمْ فِي دَمِهِمْ، وَتَأْخُذُ أَلْسِنَةُ الْكِلابِ نَصِيبَهَا مِنَ الأَعْدَاءِ». | ٢٣ |
24 Men see thy goings forth, O God! the goings forth of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.
| لَقَدْ عَايَنَ الشَّعْبُ مَوْكِبَكَ يَا اللهُ، مَوْكِبَ إِلَهِي وَمَلِكِي الْمُتَّجِهَ إِلَى الْمَقْدِسِ. | ٢٤ |
25 First come singers, then follow players on instruments, in the midst of maidens playing on timbrels.
| سَارَ الْمُغَنُّونَ فِي الطَّلِيعَةِ، وَضَارِبُو الأَوْتَارِ خَلْفَهُمْ، وَفِي الْوَسَطِ صَبَايَا يَضْرِبْنَ عَلَى الدُّفُوفِ. | ٢٥ |
26 In assemblies bless ye God, [praise] the Lord, ye sprung from Israel's fountain.
| بَارِكُوا اللهَ السَّيِّدَ فِي الْمَحَافِلِ يَا نَسْلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٦ |
27 There Benjamin the youngest leadeth them on, the princes of Judah in purple robes, the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
| هُنَاكَ فِي طَلِيعَتِهِمْ بِنْيَامِينُ الصَّغِيرُ وَعَلَى أَثَرِهِ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا فِي جَمَاعَتِهِمْ، ثُمَّ رُؤَسَاءُ زَبُولُونَ وَرُؤَسَاءُ نَفْتَالِي. | ٢٧ |
28 Thy God hath ordained the rule to thee: strengthen, O God, what thou hast wrought for us.
| قَدْ أَعَزَّكَ اللهُ، فَأَظْهِرْ يَا اللهُ قُوَّتَكَ بِمَا صَنَعْتَ لَنَا مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتٍ. | ٢٨ |
29 Because of thy temple over Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
| يُقَدِّمُ الْمُلُوكُ لَكَ الْهَدَايَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لأَنَّ هَيْكَلَكَ فِيهَا | ٢٩ |
30 Rebuke the wild beasts hiding among the reeds, the troops of steers among the calves of nations, that hasten along with presents of silver. He scattereth nations that are eager for the fight.
| انْتَهِرْ مِصْرَ، الْوَحْشَ الكَامِنَ بَيْنَ الْقَصَبِ. انْتَهِرِ الأُمَمَ الْقَوِيَّةَ الَّتِي تُشْبِهُ قَطِيعَ الثِّيرَانِ؛ حَتَّى يَخْضَعُوا وَيَدْفَعُوا لَكَ جِزْيَةَ فِضَّةٍ. بَدِّدِ الشُّعُوبَ الْمُوْلَعَةَ بِالحَرْبِ. | ٣٠ |
31 Nobles will come out of Egypt: Ethiopia will stretch forth eagerly her hands unto God.
| يَفِدُ إِلَيْكَ شُرَفَاءُ مِنْ مِصْرَ وَتَبْسُطُ الْحَبَشَةُ يَدَيْهَا مُسْرِعَةً إِعْرَاباً عَنْ خُضُوعِهَا للهِ. | ٣١ |
32 Kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing praises unto the Lord: (Selah)
| يَا مَمَالِكَ الأَرْضِ غَنُّوا للهِ. رَنِّمُوا لِلسَّيِّدِ، | ٣٢ |
33 To him who rideth over the highest heavens, of ancient days: hear! he sendeth forth his voice, the voice of might.
| لِلرَّاكِبِ عَلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ، السَّمَاوَاتِ القَدِيمَةِ، مُنْتَصِراً. هَا هُوَ يُدَوِّي بِصَوْتِهِ عَالِياً، صَوْتِ الْقُدْرَةِ. | ٣٣ |
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the skies.
| أَعْطُوا مَجْداً للهِ، فَهُوَ بَسَطَ جَلالَهُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقُوَّتَهُ فِي الْغَمَامِ. | ٣٤ |
35 Thou art tremendous, O God, from thy holy residences: O God of Israel, [thou art] he that givest strength and power unto [thy] people. Blessed be God.
| أَنْتَ مُرْهِبٌ يَا اللهُ مِنْ مَقَادِسِكَ. إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَفْسُهُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَمُدُّ شَعْبَهُ قُوَّةً وَشِدَّةً. تَبَارَكَ اللهُ. | ٣٥ |
