< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of Ascents. LORD, remember David and all his affliction,
تَرْنِيمَةُ الْمَصَاعِدِ اذْكُرْ يَا رَبُّ دَاوُدَ وَكُلَّ مُعَانَاتِهِ.١
2 how he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ أَقْسَمَ لِلرَّبِّ وَنَذَرَ لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ:٢
3 “Surely I will not come into the structure 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 out a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
حَتَّى أَبْنِيَ مَقَاماً لِتَابُوتِ الرَّبِّ، وَمَسْكِناً لإِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَدِيرِ».٥
6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar.
فِي أَفْرَاتَةَ سَمِعْنَا بِهِ، وَفِي حُقُولِ الْوَعْرِ وَجَدْنَاهُ،٦
7 “We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.”
فَقُلْنَا: «لِنَدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، وَلْنَسْجُدْ عِنْدَ مَوْطِئِ قَدَمَيْهِ».٧
8 Arise, LORD, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength.
عُدْ إِلَى هَيْكَلِكَ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ وَتَابُوتُ عِزَّتِكَ.٨
9 Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!
لِيَرْتَدِ كَهَنَتُكَ البِرَّ ثَوْباً، وَلِيَهْتِفْ أَتْقِيَاؤُكَ فَرَحاً.٩
10 For your servant David’s sake, don’t turn away the face of your anointed one.
مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ لَا تَرْفُضْ طَلَبَ مَلِكِكَ الْمَمْسُوحِ.١٠
11 The LORD has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
قَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ قَسَماً صَادِقاً لَا يَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ: «مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ أُقِيمُ مَلِكاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ.١١
12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.”
إِذَا حَفِظَ بَنُوكَ عَهْدِي وَشَهَادَاتِي الَّتِي أُعَلِّمُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، يَجْلِسُ بَنُوهُمْ أَيْضاً عَلَى عَرْشِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ».١٢
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ اخْتَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَرَغِبَ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُ مَسْكَناً.١٣
14 “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, 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. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.
أُلْبِسُ كَهَنَتَهَا ثَوْبَ الْخَلاصِ، فَيَهْتِفُ قِدِّيسُوهَا مُتَرَنِّمِينَ.١٦
17 I will make the horn of David to bud there. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
أُقِيمُ هُنَاكَ مَلِكاً عَظِيماً مِنْ أَصْلِ دَاوُدَ، وَأُعِدُّ سِرَاجاً مُنِيراً لِمَنْ أَمْسَحُهُ.١٧
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will shine.”
أَكْسُو أَعْدَاءَهُ خِزْياً. أَمَّا هُوَ، فَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ يَتَأَلَّقُ تَاجُهُ».١٨
