Psalms 68

1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. A song.] Let God arise. Let his enemies be scattered, and let them who hate him flee before him.

١ لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ لِدَاوُدَ. مَزْمُورٌ. تَسْبِيحَةٌ يَقُومُ اللهُ فَيَتَبَدَّدُ أَعْدَاؤُهُ وَيَفِرُّ مُبْغِضُوهُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ.

2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away. As wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

٢ كَمَا يَتَلاشَى الدُّخَانُ تُلاشِيهِمْ، وَكَمَا يَذُوبُ الشَّمْعُ قُرْبَ النَّارِ يَهْلِكُ الأَشْرَارُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

3 But let the righteous be glad. Let them rejoice before God. Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.

٣ أَمَّا الأَبْرَارُ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَفْرَحُونَ وَيَبْتَهِجُونَ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَيَغْتَبِطُونَ سُرُوراً.

4 Sing to God. Sing praises to his name. Extol him who rides on the clouds: to the LORD, his name. Rejoice before him.

٤ رَنِّمُوا للهِ، اشْدُوا لاسْمِهِ. مَهِّدُوا طَرِيقاً لِلرَّاكِبِ فِي الْقِفَارِ ظَافِراً. إِنَّ اسْمَهُ «الْكَائِنُ». وَتَهَلَّلُوا فِي مَحْضَرِهِ.

5 A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.

٥ اللهُ الْمُقِيمُ فِي مَسْكَنِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ هُوَ أَبُو الْيَتَامَى وَقَاضِي الأَرَامِلِ.

6 God sets the lonely in families. He brings out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.

٦ يُسْكِنُ اللهُ الْمُتَوَحِّدِينَ بَيْتاً، وَيُطْلِقُ الْمُقَيَّدِينَ إِلَى النَّجَاحِ، أَمَّا الْمُتَمَرِّدُونَ فَيَسْكُنُونَ أَرْضاً مُحْرِقَةً.

7 God, when you went forth before your people, when you marched through the wilderness... (Selah)

٧ يَا اللهُ، عِنْدَمَا خَرَجْتَ أَمَامَ شَعْبِكَ، وَقُدْتَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ،

8 The earth trembled. The sky also poured down rain at the presence of the God of Sinai—at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

٨ رَجَفَتِ الأَرْضُ، وَهَطَلَتِ السَّمَاءُ مَطَراً، وارْتَعَدَ جَبَلُ سِينَاءَ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ اللهِ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

9 You, God, sent a plentiful rain. You confirmed your inheritance, when it was weary.

٩ مَطَراً غَزِيراً سَكَبْتَ يَا اللهُ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ مِيرَاثِكَ، وَعِنْدَ إِعْيَائِهِ أَنْتَ شَدَّدْتَهُ.

10 Your congregation lived in it. You, God, prepared your goodness for the poor.

١٠ هُنَاكَ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ حَلَّ قَطِيعُكَ، وَأَنْتَ بِجُودِكَ وَفَّرْتَ خَيْراً لِلْمَسَاكِينِ، يَا اللهُ.

11 The LORD announced the word; a great company of women proclaim the good news.

١١ يُصْدِرُ السَّيِّدُ أَمْرَهُ فَيَنْهَزِمُ الْعَدُوُّ فَيَحْمِلُ جَمْعٌ غَفِيرٌ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ بُشْرَى النَّصْرِ.

12 "Kings of armies flee. They flee." She who waits at home divides the spoil,

١٢ يَهْرُبُ مُلُوكُ الْجُيُوشِ، نَعَمْ يَهْرُبُونَ. أَمَّا النِّسَاءُ المُلازِمَاتُ الْبُيُوتَ فَيَقْتَسِمْنَ الْغَنَائِمَ.

13 while you sleep among the campfires, the wings of a dove sheathed with silver, her feathers with shining gold.

١٣ مَعَ أَنَّكُمْ رَقَدْتُمْ بَيْنَ الْحَظَائِرِ تَكُونُونَ كَحَمَامَةٍ أَجْنِحَتُهَا مُغَشَّاةٌ بِالْفِضَّةِ، وَرِيشُهَا بِالذَّهَبِ الأَصْفَرِ.

14 When Shaddai scattered kings in her, it snowed on Zalmon.

١٤ عِنْدَمَا بَدَّدَ الْقَدِيرُ مُلُوكاً فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، ابْيَضَّتِ الأَرْضُ كَالثَّلْجِ فِي جَبَلِ صَلْمُونَ.

15 The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains. The mountains of Bashan are rugged.

١٥ جَبَلُ بَاشَانَ هُوَ جَبَلُ اللهِ؛ جَبَلٌ كَثِيرُ الْقِمَمِ.

16 Why do you look in envy, you rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign? Yes, the LORD will dwell there forever.

١٦ أَيَّتُهَا الْجِبَالُ الْكَثِيرَةُ الْقِمَمِ لِمَاذَا تَتَفَرَّسْنَ بِحَسَدٍ فِي الْجَبَلِ الَّذِي اشْتَهَاهُ اللهُ لِسُكْنَاهُ؟ إِنَّ اللهَ سَيَسْكُنُ فِيهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

17 The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands. The LORD is among them, from Sinai, in holiness.

١٧ مَرْكَبَاتُ الرَّبِّ كَثِيرَةٌ لَا تُحْصَى والرَّبُّ فِي وَسَطِهَا، فَصَارَ جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ مُمَاثِلاً لِجَبَلِ سِينَاءَ فِي القَدَاسَةِ.

18 You have ascended on high. You have taken captivity captive. And you gave gifts to people; but the rebellious will not dwell in the presence of God.

١٨ يَصْعَدُ إِلَى الْعُلَى وَيَأْخُذُ مَعَهُ سَبَايَا كَثِيرِينَ؛ يُوَزِّعُ الْغَنَائِمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَحَتَّى عَلَى الَّذِينَ تَمَرَّدُوا قَبْلاً عَلَى مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ.

19 Blessed be the LORD, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. (Selah)

١٩ تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَنَا يَوْماً فَيَوْماً. إِنَّهُ إِلَهُ خَلاصِنَا.

20 God is to us a God of deliverance. To the LORD belongs escape from death.

٢٠ إِلَهُنَا هُوَ إلَهُ الْخَلاصِ، وَعِنْدَ الرَّبِّ السَّيِّدِ مَنَافِذُ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ.

21 But God will strike through the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of such a one as still continues in his guiltiness.

٢١ حَقّاً سَيَضْرِبُ الرَّبُّ رُؤُوسَ أَعْدَائِهِ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْهَامَةَ الْمَكْسُوَّةَ شَعْراً لِمَنْ يُمْعِنُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْمَعَاصِي.

22 The LORD said, "I will bring you again from Bashan, I will bring you again from the depths of the sea;

٢٢ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ: «سَأُرْجِعُ أَعْدَاءَكُمْ مِنْ بَاشَانَ، سَأُرْجِعُهُمْ مِنْ أَعْمَاقِ الْبَحْرِ،

23 That you may crush them, dipping your foot in blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from your enemies."

٢٣ فَتَغْمِسُونَ أَرْجُلَكُمْ فِي دَمِهِمْ، وَتَأْخُذُ أَلْسِنَةُ الْكِلابِ نَصِيبَهَا مِنَ الأَعْدَاءِ».

24 They have seen your processions, God, even the processions of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.

٢٤ لَقَدْ عَايَنَ الشَّعْبُ مَوْكِبَكَ يَا اللهُ، مَوْكِبَ إِلَهِي وَمَلِكِي الْمُتَّجِهَ إِلَى الْمَقْدِسِ.

25 The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, in the midst of the ladies playing with tambourines,

٢٥ سَارَ الْمُغَنُّونَ فِي الطَّلِيعَةِ، وَضَارِبُو الأَوْتَارِ خَلْفَهُمْ، وَفِي الْوَسَطِ صَبَايَا يَضْرِبْنَ عَلَى الدُّفُوفِ.

26 "Bless God in the congregations, even the LORD from the fountain of Israel."

٢٦ بَارِكُوا اللهَ السَّيِّدَ فِي الْمَحَافِلِ يَا نَسْلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

27 There is little Benjamin, their ruler, the princes of Judah, their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.

٢٧ هُنَاكَ فِي طَلِيعَتِهِمْ بِنْيَامِينُ الصَّغِيرُ وَعَلَى أَثَرِهِ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا فِي جَمَاعَتِهِمْ، ثُمَّ رُؤَسَاءُ زَبُولُونَ وَرُؤَسَاءُ نَفْتَالِي.

28 Your God has commanded your strength. Strengthen, God, that which you have done for us.

٢٨ قَدْ أَعَزَّكَ اللهُ، فَأَظْهِرْ يَا اللهُ قُوَّتَكَ بِمَا صَنَعْتَ لَنَا مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتٍ.

29 Because of your temple at Jerusalem, kings shall bring presents to you.

٢٩ يُقَدِّمُ الْمُلُوكُ لَكَ الْهَدَايَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لأَنَّ هَيْكَلَكَ فِيهَا

30 Rebuke the wild animal of the reeds, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples. Being humbled, may it bring bars of silver. Scatter the nations that delight in war.

٣٠ انْتَهِرْ مِصْرَ، الْوَحْشَ الكَامِنَ بَيْنَ الْقَصَبِ. انْتَهِرِ الأُمَمَ الْقَوِيَّةَ الَّتِي تُشْبِهُ قَطِيعَ الثِّيرَانِ؛ حَتَّى يَخْضَعُوا وَيَدْفَعُوا لَكَ جِزْيَةَ فِضَّةٍ. بَدِّدِ الشُّعُوبَ الْمُوْلَعَةَ بِالحَرْبِ.

31 Envoys shall come out of Egypt. Ethiopia shall hurry to stretch out her hands to God.

٣١ يَفِدُ إِلَيْكَ شُرَفَاءُ مِنْ مِصْرَ وَتَبْسُطُ الْحَبَشَةُ يَدَيْهَا مُسْرِعَةً إِعْرَاباً عَنْ خُضُوعِهَا للهِ.

32 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth. Sing praises to the LORD. (Selah)

٣٢ يَا مَمَالِكَ الأَرْضِ غَنُّوا للهِ. رَنِّمُوا لِلسَّيِّدِ،

33 To him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which are of old; look, he utters his voice, a mighty voice.

٣٣ لِلرَّاكِبِ عَلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ، السَّمَاوَاتِ القَدِيمَةِ، مُنْتَصِراً. هَا هُوَ يُدَوِّي بِصَوْتِهِ عَالِياً، صَوْتِ الْقُدْرَةِ.

34 Ascribe strength to God. His excellency is over Israel, his strength is in the skies.

٣٤ أَعْطُوا مَجْداً للهِ، فَهُوَ بَسَطَ جَلالَهُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقُوَّتَهُ فِي الْغَمَامِ.

35 You are awesome, God, in your sanctuaries. The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God.

٣٥ أَنْتَ مُرْهِبٌ يَا اللهُ مِنْ مَقَادِسِكَ. إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَفْسُهُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَمُدُّ شَعْبَهُ قُوَّةً وَشِدَّةً. تَبَارَكَ اللهُ.
