< Psalms 118 >

1 Give thanks to the Lord for his goodness, his kindness endures forever.
اِحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ.١
2 Let the house of Israel now say: his kindness endures forever.
لِيَقُلْ إِسْرَائِيلُ: «إِنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ».٢
3 Let the house of Aaron now say: his kindness endures forever.
لِيَقُلْ بَيْتُ هَارُونَ: «إِنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ».٣
4 Let those who fear the Lord now say: his kindness endures forever.
لِيَقُلْ مُتَّقُو ٱلرَّبِّ: «إِنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ».٤
5 Out of straits I called on the Lord, the Lord answered and gave me room.
مِنَ ٱلضِّيقِ دَعَوْتُ ٱلرَّبَّ فَأَجَابَنِي مِنَ ٱلرُّحْبِ.٥
6 The Lord is mine; I am fearless. What can mere people do to me?
ٱلرَّبُّ لِي فَلَا أَخَافُ. مَاذَا يَصْنَعُ بِي ٱلْإِنْسَانُ؟٦
7 The Lord is mine, as my help: I shall feast my eyes on my foes.
ٱلرَّبُّ لِي بَيْنَ مُعِينِيَّ، وَأَنَا سَأَرَى بِأَعْدَائِي.٧
8 It is better to hide in the Lord than to trust in mortals.
ٱلِٱحْتِمَاءُ بِٱلرَّبِّ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلتَّوَكُّلِ عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ.٨
9 It is better to hide in the Lord than to put any trust in princes.
ٱلِٱحْتِمَاءُ بِٱلرَّبِّ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلتَّوَكُّلِ عَلَى ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ.٩
10 Everywhere heathen swarmed round me; in the name of the Lord I cut them down.
كُلُّ ٱلْأُمَمِ أَحَاطُوا بِي. بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُبِيدُهُمْ.١٠
11 They swarmed, swarmed around me; in the name of the Lord I cut them down,
أَحَاطُوا بِي وَٱكْتَنَفُونِي. بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُبِيدُهُمْ.١١
12 they swarmed around me like bees, they blazed like a fire of thorns: in the name of the Lord I cut them down.
أَحَاطُوا بِي مِثْلَ ٱلنَّحْلِ. ٱنْطَفَأُوا كَنَارِ ٱلشَّوْكِ. بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُبِيدُهُمْ.١٢
13 Sore they pushed me, to make me fall; but the Lord gave me his help.
دَحَرْتَنِي دُحُورًا لِأَسْقُطَ، أَمَّا ٱلرَّبُّ فَعَضَدَنِي.١٣
14 The Lord is my strength and my song, and he is become my salvation.
قُوَّتِي وَتَرَنُّمِي ٱلرَّبُّ، وَقَدْ صَارَ لِي خَلَاصًا.١٤
15 Hark! In the tents of the righteous glad cries of victory are ringing. The hand of the Lord has wrought bravely,
صَوْتُ تَرَنُّمٍ وَخَلَاصٍ فِي خِيَامِ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ: «يَمِينُ ٱلرَّبِّ صَانِعَةٌ بِبَأْسٍ.١٥
16 the hand of the Lord is exalted, the hand of the Lord has wrought bravely.
يَمِينُ ٱلرَّبِّ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ. يَمِينُ ٱلرَّبِّ صَانِعَةٌ بِبَأْسٍ».١٦
17 I shall not die: nay, I shall live, to declare the works of the Lord.
لَا أَمُوتُ بَلْ أَحْيَا وَأُحَدِّثُ بِأَعْمَالِ ٱلرَّبِّ.١٧
18 Though the Lord has chastened me sore, he has not given me over to death. (The Procession arrives at the Temple)
تَأْدِيبًا أَدَّبَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ، وَإِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ لَمْ يُسْلِمْنِي.١٨
19 “Open to me the gates of victory. I would enter therein and give thanks to the Lord.” (The Welcome)
اِفْتَحُوا لِي أَبْوَابَ ٱلْبِرِّ. أَدْخُلْ فِيهَا وَأَحْمَدِ ٱلرَّبَّ.١٩
20 “This is the gate of the Lord: the righteous may enter therein;”
هَذَا ٱلْبَابُ لِلرَّبِّ. ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِيهِ.٢٠
21 I thank you because you have heard me, and are become my salvation.
أَحْمَدُكَ لِأَنَّكَ ٱسْتَجَبْتَ لِي وَصِرْتَ لِي خَلَاصًا.٢١
22 The stone which the builders despised is become the head-stone of the corner.
ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي رَفَضَهُ ٱلْبَنَّاؤُونَ قَدْ صَارَ رَأْسَ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ.٢٢
23 This has been wrought by the Lord; it is marvelous in our eyes.
مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَ هَذَا، وَهُوَ عَجِيبٌ فِي أَعْيُنِنَا.٢٣
24 This day is the Lord’s own creation: in it let us joy and be glad.
هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ، نَبْتَهِجُ وَنَفْرَحُ فِيهِ.٢٤
25 O Lord, save us, we pray, O Lord, prosper, we pray.
آهِ يَارَبُّ خَلِّصْ! آهِ يَارَبُّ أَنْقِذْ!٢٥
26 Blessed the one who enters in the name of the Lord. From the house of the Lord we bless you.
مُبَارَكٌ ٱلْآتِي بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ. بَارَكْنَاكُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ.٢٦
27 The Lord is God, he has given us light. Wreathe the dance with boughs, till they touch the horns of the altar.
ٱلرَّبُّ هُوَ ٱللهُ وَقَدْ أَنَارَ لَنَا. أَوْثِقُوا ٱلذَّبِيحَةَ بِرُبُطٍ إِلَى قُرُونِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ.٢٧
28 You are my God, I will thank you; O my God, I will exalt you.
إِلَهِي أَنْتَ فَأَحْمَدُكَ، إِلَهِي فَأَرْفَعُكَ.٢٨
29 Give thanks to the Lord for his goodness: his kindness endures forever.
ٱحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ، لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ.٢٩
