1 د َعُونا نُرَنِّمُ للهِ قُوَّتِنا، اهْتِفُوا لإلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ!
Sing for joy to God our strength; Shout joyfully to the God of Jacob.
2 د ُقُّوا المُوسِيقَى، اضرِبُوا عَلَى الدُّفِّ وَالعُودِ الجَمِيلِ وَالقِيثارِ!
Raise a song, strike the timbrel, The sweet sounding lyre with the harp.
3 ا نفُخُوا البُوقَ عِندَ أوَّلِ الشَّهرِ، وَعِندَ اكتِمالِ البَدرِ إيذاناً بِبَدءِ عِيدِنا المُقَدَّسِ.
Blow the trumpet at the new moon, At the full moon, on our feast day.
4 و َهَذِهِ فَرِيضَةٌ عَلَى إسْرائِيلَ، إنَّها وَصِيَّةٌ أعْطاها اللهُ لِيَعقُوبَ.
For it is a statute for Israel, An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 ه َذا جُزءٌ مِنَ عَهدِ اللهِ لَمّا غادَرُوا مِصرَ. سَمِعْتُ صَوتاً بِلُغَةٍ لَمْ أعْرِفْها يَقُولُ:
He established it for a testimony in Joseph When he went throughout the land of Egypt. I heard a language that I did not know:
6 « أزَحتُ العِبءَ عَنْ كَتِفِهِ، وَالسَّلَّةَ مِنْ يَدَيهِ.
“I relieved his shoulder of the burden, His hands were freed from the basket.
7 ح ِينَ كُنتَ فِي ضِيقٍ استَنجَدتَ بِي. فَأجَبتُكَ سِرّاً بِالرَّعدِ. امتَحَنْتُكَ عِنْدَ مِياهِ مَرِيبَةَ.» سِلاهْ
“You called in trouble and I rescued you; I answered you in the hiding place of thunder; I proved you at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8 « استَمِعْ إلَيَّ يا شَعبِي! إنْ استَمَعتَ إلَيَّ، سَأقْطَعُ مَعَكَ عَهداً.
“ Hear, O My people, and I will admonish you; O Israel, if you would listen to Me!
9 ل ا يَكُنْ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ آلِهَةٌ غَرِيبَةٌ. وَلإلَهٍ غَرِيبٍ لا تَنْحَنُوا.
“Let there be no strange god among you; Nor shall you worship any foreign god.
10 أ نا إلَهُكُمْ الَّذِي أخرَجَكُمْ مِنْ مِصرَ. افتَحْ فَمَكَ وَأنا أملأُهُ.
“ I, the Lord, am your God, Who brought you up from the land of Egypt; Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.
11 « لَكِنَّ شَعبِي لَمْ يَسمَعْ لِصَوتِي. إسْرائِيلُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُرِيدُنِي.
“But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel did not obey Me.
12 ل ِهَذا سَأترُكُهُمْ لِعِنادِهِمْ، فَيَفعَلُونَ ما يَحلُو لَهُمْ.
“So I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart, To walk in their own devices.
13 ل َيتَ شَعبِي يَستَمِعُ إلَيَّ، لَيتَ إسْرائِيلَ يَمشِي فِي الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أُرِيدُها لَهُ.
“Oh that My people would listen to Me, That Israel would walk in My ways!
14 ل ِأنَّنِي عِندَئِذٍ سَأُسرِعُ إلَى إخضاعِ أعدائِهِمْ، وَأُعاقِبُ خُصُومَهُمْ.
“I would quickly subdue their enemies And turn My hand against their adversaries.
15 ا لَّذِينَ يَكرَهُونَ اللهَ سَيَنكَمِشُونَ أمامَهُ، وَدَمارُهُمْ سَيَكُونُ إلَى الأبَدِ.
“ Those who hate the Lord would pretend obedience to Him, And their time of punishment would be forever.
16 أ مّا أنا فَسَأُطعِمُكُمْ قَمحاً كَثِيراً. وَسَأُشبِعُكُمْ عَسَلاً مِنَ الصَّخرَةِ.»
“ But I would feed you with the finest of the wheat, And with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
