< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David [and] all his afflictions;
تَرْنِيمَةُ الْمَصَاعِدِ اذْكُرْ يَا رَبُّ دَاوُدَ وَكُلَّ مُعَانَاتِهِ.١
2 How he swore to the LORD, [and] vowed to the mighty [God] of Jacob;
اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَقْسَمَ لِلرَّبِّ وَنَذَرَ لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ:٢
3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
«لَنْ أَدْخُلَ بَيْتَ سُكْنَايَ، وَلَنْ أَعْلُوَ فِرَاشِي،٣
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, [or] slumber to my eyelids,
وَلَنْ أُعْطِيَ عَيْنَيَّ نَوْماً وَلَا أَجْفَانِي نُعَاساً،٤
5 Until I find a place for the LORD, a habitation for the mighty [God] of Jacob.
حَتَّى أَبْنِيَ مَقَاماً لِتَابُوتِ الرَّبِّ، وَمَسْكِناً لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ».٥
6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ، وَفِي حُقُولِ الْوَعْرِ وَجَدْنَاهُ،٦
7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
فَقُلْنَا: «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، وَلْنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ».٧
8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
عُدْ إِلَى هَيْكَلِكَ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزَّتِكَ.٨
9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.
لِيَرْتَدِ كَهَنَتُكَ البِرَّ ثَوْباً، وَلِيَهْتِفْ أَتْقِيَاؤُكَ فَرَحاً.٩
10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thy anointed.
مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرْفُضْ طَلَبَ مَلِكِكَ الْمَمْسُوحِ.١٠
11 The LORD hath sworn [in] truth to David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
قَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ قَسَماً صَادِقاً لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أُقِيمُ مَلِكاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ.١١
12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them; their children also shall sit upon thy throne for ever.
إِذَا حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي الَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، يَجْلِسُ بَنُوهُمْ أَيْضاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ».١٢
13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired [it] for his habitation.
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَرَغِبَ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُ مَسْكَناً.١٣
14 This [is] my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
وَقَالَ: «هَذِهِ مَقَرُّ رَاحَتِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فِيهَا أَسْكُنُ لأَنِّي أَحْبَبْتُهَا.١٤
15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
أُبَارِكُ غَلَّاتِهَا بَرَكَةً جَزِيلَةً، وَأُشْبِعُ مَسَاكِينَهَا خُبْزاً.١٥
16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
أُلْبِسُ كَهَنَتَهَا ثَوْبَ الْخَلاصِ، فَيَهْتِفُ قِدِّيسُوهَا مُتَرَنِّمِينَ.١٦
17 There will I make the horn of David to bud, I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
أُقِيمُ هُنَاكَ مَلِكاً عَظِيماً مِنْ أَصْلِ دَاوُدَ، وَأُعِدُّ سِرَاجاً مُنِيراً لِمَنْ أَمْسَحُهُ.١٧
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
أَكْسُو أَعْدَاءَهُ خِزْياً. أَمَّا هُوَ، فَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ يَتَأَلَّقُ تَاجُهُ».١٨
