Psalms 118
1 Tell Yahweh that you thank him very much for the good [things that he has done for you] He faithfully loves [us, his people], forever.
| خداوند را ستایش کنید، زیرا او نیکوست و محبتش بی‌پایان. |
2 You Israeli [people] should [repeatedly] shout, “He faithfully loves [us, his people], forever!”
| مردم اسرائیل بگویند: «محبت خداوند بی‌پایان است.» |
3 You [priests] who are descendants of Aaron should repeatedly shout, “He faithfully loves us, his people, forever!”
| کاهنان نسل هارون بگویند: «محبت خداوند بی‌پایان است.» |
4 All you who revere him should repeatedly shout, “He faithfully loves [us, his people], forever!”
| مردم خداترس بگویند: «محبت خداوند بی‌پایان است.» |
5 When I was distressed, I called out to Yahweh, and he answered me and set me free [from my worries/troubles].
| در زحمت بودم؛ از خداوند کمک خواستم؛ او به دادم رسید و مرا رهانید. |
6 Yahweh is (on my side/helping me), so I will not be afraid [of anything]. No one [RHQ] can do anything that will [prevent God from blessing] me forever.
| خداوند با من است، پس نخواهم ترسید. انسان به من چه می‌تواند بکند؟ |
7 [Yes], Yahweh is (on my side/helping me), [so] I will look triumphantly at my enemies [while he defeats them].
| خداوند با من است و مرا یاری خواهد داد، پس پیروزمندانه بر کسانی که از من نفرت دارند خواهم نگریست. |
8 It is better to trust in Yahweh than to (depend on/trust in) people.
| به خداوند پناه بردن بهتر است از امید بستن به انسان. |
9 It is better to trust Yahweh to protect [us] than to trust [that influential/important] people [will protect us].
| آری، به خداوند پناه بردن حتی بهتر است از امید بستن به امیران. |
10 Armies of [MTY] many nations surrounded me, [but] Yahweh enabled me to defeat them by his power [MTY].
| اگر همهٔ دشمنان مانند زنبور بر سر من بریزند و دور مرا بگیرند، به یاری خداوند تمام آنها را نابود خواهم کرد. آنها مثل خارها که دوامی ندارند خواهند سوخت و فوری خاموش خواهند شد. |
11 They completely surrounded me, [but] I defeated them all by the power of Yahweh.
12 They swarmed around me like [angry] bees; they were like a fire that blazes strongly, but only briefly, in a thornbush, [but] I defeated them by the power [MTY] that Yahweh gave me.
13 [My enemies] attacked me fiercely and almost defeated me, but Yahweh helped me.
| دشمن بر من هجوم آورد تا نابودم کند، ولی خداوند مرا کمک نمود. |
14 Yahweh is the one who makes me strong, and he is the one about whom I [always] sing; he has saved me [from my enemies].
| خداوند قوت و سرود من است؛ او باعث نجات من شده است. |
15 Listen to the joyful songs of victory being sung in the tents of godly/righteous people! They sing, “Yahweh has defeated our enemies by his mighty power [MTY];
| فریاد پیروزی قوم خدا از خیمه‌هایشان شنیده می‌شود که می‌گویند: «دست توانای خداوند متعال این پیروزی را نصیب ما ساخته است! |
16 he has raised his strong right arm [to show he has defeated his enemies]. Yahweh has completely defeated them!”
| آری، دست توانای خداوند متعال، ما را در جنگ پیروز ساخته است!» |
17 I will not be killed [in battle]; I will live to proclaim the great things that Yahweh has done.
| من نخواهم مرد، بلکه زنده خواهم ماند و کارهای خداوند را برای همه تعریف خواهم کرد. |
18 Yahweh has punished me severely, but he has not allowed (me to die/[my enemies] to kill me).
| خداوند مرا به سختی تنبیه کرد، ولی نگذاشت تا بمیرم. |
19 [You gatekeepers], open for me the gates of the temple in order that I may enter and thank Yahweh.
| دروازه‌هایی را که عادلان از آن وارد می‌شوند برای من باز کنید تا داخل شوم و خداوند را سپاس گویم. |
20 Those are the gates [through which we enter the temple to worship] Yahweh; godly/righteous people enter those gates.
| این است دروازهٔ خداوند که نیکوکاران از آن وارد شوند. |
21 [Yahweh], I thank you that you answered my prayer, and you saved me [from my enemies].
| ای خداوند، تو را ستایش می‌کنم که مرا اجابت فرموده، نجاتم دادی. |
22 [Yahweh’s promised/chosen king is like] [MET] the stone which the builders rejected [when they were building a house], [but that stone] became the (cornerstone/most important stone in the building).
| سنگی که معماران دور افکندند، سنگ اصلی ساختمان شده است. |
23 (This was done by Yahweh/Yahweh has done this), and it is a wonderful thing for us to see.
| این کارِ خداوند است و در نظر ما عجیب می‌نماید. |
24 This is the day in which [we remember that] Yahweh acted [powerfully to defeat our enemies]; we will rejoice and be glad/happy today.
| این است روزی که خداوند ساخته؛ در این روز باید وجد و شادی کرد! |
25 Yahweh, we plead with you to [keep] rescuing us [from our enemies]. Yahweh, please help us (accomplish/do well) [what we want to do].
| خداوندا، تمنا می‌کنیم ما را نجات دهی و کامیاب سازی! |
26 Yahweh, bless the one who will come with your authority [MTY]. And from the temple we (bless/[ask Yahweh to] bless) all of you.
| مبارک است آن که به نام خداوند می‌آید! ما از خانهٔ خداوند، تو را برکت می‌دهیم. |
27 Yahweh is God, and he has caused his light to shine on us. Come, carrying [palm] branches, and join the people [who are starting] the festival as they go to the altar.
| یهوه خداست، همان خدایی که ما را منور ساخته است. شاخه‌ها را به دست گیرید و جشن را آغاز کنید و به سوی مذبح خانهٔ خدا پیش بروید. |
28 [Yahweh], you are the God whom I [worship], and I will praise you! You are my God, and I will tell [everyone] that you are great!
| تو خدای من هستی، و تو را سپاس می‌گویم! تو خدای من هستی، و تو را تمجید می‌کنم! |
29 Thank Yahweh, because he does good things [for us] He will faithfully love [us] forever.
| خداوند را ستایش کنید، زیرا او نیکوست و محبتش بی‌پایان. |
