Psalms 48

1 A Song [and] Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great [is] the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, [in] the mountain of his holiness.

١ تَسْبِيحَةٌ. مَزْمُورٌ لِبَنِي قُورَحَ عَظِيمٌ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَحَمِيدٌ جِدًّا فِي مَدِينَةِ إِلَهِنَا، جَبَلِ قُدْسِهِ.

2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, [is] mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

٢ جَمِيلُ ٱلِٱرْتِفَاعِ، فَرَحُ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ. فَرَحُ أَقَاصِي ٱلشِّمَالِ، مَدِينَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ.

3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

٣ ٱللهُ فِي قُصُورِهَا يُعْرَفُ مَلْجَأً.

4 For lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

٤ لِأَنَّهُ هُوَذَا ٱلْمُلُوكُ ٱجْتَمَعُوا. مَضَوْا جَمِيعًا.

5 They saw [it], [and] so they wondered; they were troubled, [and] hasted away.

٥ لَمَّا رَأَوْا بُهِتُوا، ٱرْتَاعُوا، فَرُّوا.

6 Fear took hold upon them there, [and] pain, as of a woman in travail.

٦ أَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلرِّعْدَةُ هُنَاكَ، وَٱلْمَخَاضُ كَوَالِدَةٍ.

7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

٧ بِرِيحٍ شَرْقِيَّةٍ تَكْسِرُ سُفُنَ تَرْشِيشَ.

8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. (Selah)

٨ كَمَا سَمِعْنَا هَكَذَا رَأَيْنَا فِي مَدِينَةِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، فِي مَدِينَةِ إِلَهِنَا. ٱللهُ يُثَبِّتُهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. سِلَاهْ.

9 We have thought of thy loving-kindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.

٩ ذَكَرْنَا يَا ٱللهُ رَحْمَتَكَ فِي وَسَطِ هَيْكَلِكَ.

10 According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise to the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

١٠ نَظِيرُ ٱسْمِكَ يَا ٱللهُ تَسْبِيحُكَ إِلَى أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. يَمِينُكَ مَلآنَةٌ بِرًّا.

11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.

١١ يَفْرَحُ جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ، تَبْتَهِجُ بَنَاتُ يَهُوذَا مِنْ أَجْلِ أَحْكَامِكَ.

12 Walk about Zion, and go round her: number her towers.

١٢ طُوفُوا بِصِهْيَوْنَ، وَدُورُوا حَوْلَهَا. عُدُّوا أَبْرَاجَهَا.

13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell [it] to the generation following.

١٣ ضَعُوا قُلُوبَكُمْ عَلَى مَتَارِسِهَا. تَأَمَّلُوا قُصُورَهَا لِكَيْ تُحَدِّثُوا بِهَا جِيلًا آخَرَ.

14 For this God [is] our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide [even] to death.

١٤ لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ هَذَا هُوَ إِلَهُنَا إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْأَبَدِ. هُوَ يَهْدِينَا حَتَّى إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ.
