< Psalms 147 >

1 Praise YAH! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant—lovely [is] praise.
سَبِّحُوا الرَّبَّ، فَإِنَّ التَّرَنُّمَ لإِلَهِنَا طَيِّبٌ، وَتَسْبِيحُهُ مُلِذٌّ وَلائِقٌ.١
2 YHWH [is] building Jerusalem, He gathers the driven away of Israel.
يَبْنِي الرَّبُّ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَيَجْمَعُ شَمْلَ الْمَنْفِيِّينَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ.٢
3 Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.
إِنَّهُ يَشْفِي مُنْكَسِرِي الْقَلْبِ وَيُضَمِّدُ جِرَاحَهُمْ.٣
4 Appointing the number of the stars, He gives names to all of them.
يُحْصِي عَدَدَ الْكَوَاكِبِ وَيَدْعُوهَا جَمِيعَهَا بِأَسْمَائِهَا.٤
5 Our Lord [is] great, and abundant in power, There is no narration of His understanding.
عَظِيمٌ هُوَ سَيِّدُنَا، وَفَائِقَةٌ هِيَ قُوَّتُهُ، وَلَا حَدَّ لِحِكْمَتِهِ.٥
6 YHWH is causing the meek to stand, Making the wicked low to the earth.
يَرْفَعُ الرَّبُّ الْوُدَعَاءَ، وَيَطْرَحُ الأَشْرَارَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ.٦
7 Answer to YHWH with thanksgiving, Sing to our God with a harp.
رُدُّوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ بِحَمْدٍ، رَنِّمُوا لإِلَهِنَا عَلَى الْعُودِ.٧
8 Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing rain for the earth, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,
فَهُوَ يَكْسُو السَّمَاوَاتِ سَحَاباً وَيُمْطِرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَيُنْبِتُ الْعُشْبَ عَلَى الْجِبَالِ.٨
9 Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.
يَهَبُ الطَّعَامَ لِلْبَهَائِمِ، وَلِفِرَاخِ الْغِرْبَانِ النَّاعِقَةِ.٩
10 He does not delight in the might of the horse, He is not pleased in the legs of a man.
لَا تَسْتَهْوِيهِ قُوَّةُ الْخَيْلِ، وَلَا تَسُرُّهُ سَاقَا الْعَدَّاءِ.١٠
11 YHWH is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.
إِنَّمَا يَرْضَى الرَّبُّ بِخَائِفِيهِ، الرَّاجِينَ رَحْمَتَهُ.١١
12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, YHWH, Praise your God, O Zion.
مَجِّدِي الرَّبَّ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ، وَسَبِّحِي إِلَهَكِ يَا صِهْيَوْنُ.١٢
13 For He strengthened the bars of your gates, He has blessed your sons in your midst.
فَإِنَّهُ ثَبَّتَ عَوَارِضَ أَبْوَابِكِ (فِي وَجْهِ الأَعْدَاءِ)، وَبَارَكَ بَنِيكِ فِي دَاخِلِكِ.١٣
14 Who is making your border peace, He satisfies you [with] the fat of wheat.
هُوَ الَّذِي يَجْعَلُ حُدُودَكِ آمِنَةً، وَمِنْ أَفْضَلِ الْحِنْطَةِ يُشْبِعُكِ خُبْزاً.١٤
15 Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, His word runs very speedily.
يُصْدِرُ أَمْرَهُ إِلَى الأَرْضِ فَتُنَفِّذُهُ بِسُرْعَةٍ فَائِقَةٍ.١٥
16 Who is giving snow like wool, He scatters hoarfrost as ashes.
يَنْثُرُ الثَّلْجَ كَالصُّوفِ، وَيُذَرِّي الْجَلِيدَ كَالرَّمَادِ.١٦
17 Casting forth His ice like morsels, Who stands before His cold?
يُلْقِي بَرَدَهُ كَفُتَاتِ الْخُبْزِ. مَنْ يَصْمُدُ فِي وَجْهِ صَقِيعِهِ؟١٧
18 He sends forth His word and melts them, He causes His wind to blow—the waters flow.
ثُمَّ يُصْدِرُ أَمْرَهُ فَيُذِيبُهَا. يُرْسِلُ رِيحَهُ فَتَسِيلُ الْمِيَاهُ.١٨
19 Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
يُعْلِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ كَلِمَتَهُ وَلإِسْرَائِيلَ فَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ.١٩
20 He has not done so to any nation, As for judgments, they have not known them. Praise YAH!
لَمْ يُعَامِلْ أُمَّةً أُخْرَى هَكَذَا، وَلَمْ يُعَرِّفْهَا أَحْكَامَهُ هَلِّلُويَا.٢٠
