Psalms 132
1 A song of ascents. Yahweh, for David's sake call to mind all his afflictions.
| تَرْنِيمَةُ الْمَصَاعِدِ اذْكُرْ يَا رَبُّ دَاوُدَ وَكُلَّ مُعَانَاتِهِ. | ١ |
2 Call to mind how he swore to Yahweh, how he vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob.
| اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَقْسَمَ لِلرَّبِّ وَنَذَرَ لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ: | ٢ |
3 He said, “I will not enter my house or get into my bed,
| «لَنْ أَدْخُلَ بَيْتَ سُكْنَايَ، وَلَنْ أَعْلُوَ فِرَاشِي، | ٣ |
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or rest to my eyelids
| وَلَنْ أُعْطِيَ عَيْنَيَّ نَوْماً وَلَا أَجْفَانِي نُعَاساً، | ٤ |
5 until I find a place for Yahweh, a tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
| حَتَّى أَبْنِيَ مَقَاماً لِتَابُوتِ الرَّبِّ، وَمَسْكِناً لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ». | ٥ |
6 See, we heard about it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.
| فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ، وَفِي حُقُولِ الْوَعْرِ وَجَدْنَاهُ، | ٦ |
7 We will go into God's tabernacle; we will worship at his footstool.
| فَقُلْنَا: «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، وَلْنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ». | ٧ |
8 Arise, Yahweh, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength!
| عُدْ إِلَى هَيْكَلِكَ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزَّتِكَ. | ٨ |
9 May your priests be clothed with integrity; may your faithful ones shout for joy.
| لِيَرْتَدِ كَهَنَتُكَ البِرَّ ثَوْباً، وَلِيَهْتِفْ أَتْقِيَاؤُكَ فَرَحاً. | ٩ |
10 For your servant David's sake, do not turn away from your anointed king.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرْفُضْ طَلَبَ مَلِكِكَ الْمَمْسُوحِ. | ١٠ |
11 Yahweh swore a sure oath to David, a sure oath that he will not revoke: “I will place one of your descendants on your throne.
| قَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ قَسَماً صَادِقاً لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أُقِيمُ مَلِكاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ. | ١١ |
12 If your sons keep my covenant and the laws that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forevermore.”
| إِذَا حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي الَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، يَجْلِسُ بَنُوهُمْ أَيْضاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ». | ١٢ |
13 Certainly Yahweh has chosen Zion, he has desired her for his seat.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَرَغِبَ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُ مَسْكَناً. | ١٣ |
14 “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I desire her.
| وَقَالَ: «هَذِهِ مَقَرُّ رَاحَتِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فِيهَا أَسْكُنُ لأَنِّي أَحْبَبْتُهَا. | ١٤ |
15 I will abundantly bless her with provisions. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
| أُبَارِكُ غَلَّاتِهَا بَرَكَةً جَزِيلَةً، وَأُشْبِعُ مَسَاكِينَهَا خُبْزاً. | ١٥ |
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, her faithful ones will shout aloud for joy.
| أُلْبِسُ كَهَنَتَهَا ثَوْبَ الْخَلاصِ، فَيَهْتِفُ قِدِّيسُوهَا مُتَرَنِّمِينَ. | ١٦ |
17 There I will make a horn to sprout for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one.
| أُقِيمُ هُنَاكَ مَلِكاً عَظِيماً مِنْ أَصْلِ دَاوُدَ، وَأُعِدُّ سِرَاجاً مُنِيراً لِمَنْ أَمْسَحُهُ. | ١٧ |
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on him his crown will shine.”
| أَكْسُو أَعْدَاءَهُ خِزْياً. أَمَّا هُوَ، فَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ يَتَأَلَّقُ تَاجُهُ». | ١٨ |
