1 O h, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!

اشكُرُوا اللهَ ، بِاسْمِهِ ادعُوا! خَبِّرُوا الشُّعُوبَ بِما صَنَعَ.

2 S ing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!

غَنُّوا لَهُ. رَنِّمُوا لَهُ. وَفِي رَوائِعِهِ تَأمَّلُوا.

3 G lory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!

تَباهَوْا بِاسْمِهِ القُدُّوسِ. وَلْيَفرَحِ الَّذِينَ يَطلُبُونَ اللهَ.

4 S eek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!

اطلُبُوا اللهَ وَقُوَّتَهُ. إلَيهِ الجَأُوا دائِماً.

5 R emember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,

تَذَكَّرُوا الأُمُورَ العَظِيمَةَ الَّتِي أجراها، وَعَجائِبَهُ وَأحْكامَهُ الَّتِي نَطَقَ بِها.

6 O seed of Abraham His servant, You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!

يا أبناءَ خادِمِهِ إبراهِيمَ، يا أبناءَ مُختارِهِ يَعقُوبَ.

7 H e is the Lord our God; His judgments are in all the earth.

يهوه هُوَ إلَهُنا، وَأحكامُهُ عَلَى كُلِّ الأرْضِ.

8 H e remembers His covenant forever, The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

إلَى الأبَدِ سَيَذكُرُ عَهدَهُ، الوَصايا الَّتِي أمَرَ بِها هِيَ لألْفِ جِيلٍ.

9 T he covenant which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,

هَذا هُوَ عَهدُهُ مَعَ إبراهِيمَ، وَوَعْدُهُ لإسْحَاقَ.

10 A nd confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel as an everlasting covenant,

قَدَّمَهُ شَرِيعَةً لِيَعقُوبَ، لإسرائِيلَ عَهداً أبَدِيّاً.

11 S aying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan As the allotment of your inheritance,”

قالَ: «أُعطِيكَ أرْضَ كَنْعانَ لِتَكُونَ نَصِيبَكَ مِنَ الأملاكِ.»

12 W hen they were few in number, Indeed very few, and strangers in it.

فَعَلَ هَذا حِينَ كانُوا قِلَّةً وَغُرَباءَ فِي الأرْضِ.

13 W hen they went from one nation to another, From one kingdom to another people,

جالَ هَؤُلاءِ الآباءُ مِنْ شَعبٍ إلَى شَعبٍ، وَمِنْ مَملَكَةٍ إلَى أُخْرَى.

14 H e permitted no one to do them wrong; Yes, He rebuked kings for their sakes,

لَمْ يَسمَحْ لأحَدٍ بِأنْ يُسِيئَ مُعامَلَتَهُمْ، بَلْ حَذَّرَ المُلُوكَ وَقالَ:

15 S aying, “Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm.”

«لا تَمَسُّوا مُختارِيَّ! لا تُؤذُوا أنبِيائِي.»

16 M oreover He called for a famine in the land; He destroyed all the provision of bread.

جَلَبَ اللهُ عَلَى الأرْضِ مَجاعَةً، فَلَمْ يَعُدْ هُناكَ ما يَكْفِي مِنَ الخُبْزِ!

17 H e sent a man before them— Joseph— who was sold as a slave.

أرسَلَ رَجُلاً إلَى مِصرَ قَبلَ عائِلَةِ إسرائِيلَ، يُوسُفَ الَّذِي بِيعَ عَبداً.

18 T hey hurt his feet with fetters, He was laid in irons.

آذُوا بِالسَّلاسِلِ قَدَمَيهِ، وَبِطَوقٍ حَدِيدِيٍّ طَوَّقُوا رَقَبَتَهُ.

19 U ntil the time that his word came to pass, The word of the Lord tested him.

حَتَّى تَحَقَّقَ كَلامُهُ، وَكَلِمَةُ اللهِ بَرهَنَتْ عَلَى صِدقِهِ.

20 T he king sent and released him, The ruler of the people let him go free.

أرسَلَ المَلِكُ فِي طَلَبِهِ وَكافَأهُ. وَحاكِمُ الشَّعبِ حَرَّرَهُ مِنَ السِّجنِ.

21 H e made him lord of his house, And ruler of all his possessions,

عَيَّنَهُ سَيِّداً عَلَى البَيتِ، مَسؤُولاً عَنْ كُلِّ أملاكِهِ.

22 T o bind his princes at his pleasure, And teach his elders wisdom.

أعطَى يُوسُفُ تَعلِيماتٍ لِلْقادَةِ، وَدَرَّبَ قادَةً أكبَرَ مِنهُ.

23 I srael also came into Egypt, And Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.

ثُمَّ دَخَلَ إسرائِيلُ مِصرَ. عاشَ يَعقُوبُ غَرِيباً فِي أرْضِ حامَ.

24 H e increased His people greatly, And made them stronger than their enemies.

كَثَّرَ اللهُ شَعبَهُ كَثِيراً، فَصارُوا أعظَمَ وَأقوَى مِنْ أعدائِهِمْ.

25 H e turned their heart to hate His people, To deal craftily with His servants.

عِندَئِذٍ تَغَيَّرَتْ نَظرَةُ المِصرِيِّينَ إلَيْهِمْ، فَبَدَأُوا يُبغِضُونَهُمْ وَيَتَآمَرُونَ عَلَى عَبِيدِهِمْ.

26 H e sent Moses His servant, And Aaron whom He had chosen.

فَأرسَلَ اللهُ عَبدَهُ مُوسَى، وَهارُونَ الَّذِي اختارَهُ.

27 T hey performed His signs among them, And wonders in the land of Ham.

أظهَرُوا بَراهِينَهُ وَسَطَ شَعبِ مِصرَ، وَمُعجِزاتِهِ فِي أرْضِ حامَ.

28 H e sent darkness, and made it dark; And they did not rebel against His word.

أرسَلَ ظَلاماً شَديداً، وَلَمْ يُصغِ المِصْرِيونَ إلَيهِ.

29 H e turned their waters into blood, And killed their fish.

حَوَّلَ ماءَهُمْ دَماً، وَقَتَلَ سَمَكَهُمْ.

30 T heir land abounded with frogs, Even in the chambers of their kings.

مَلأ بَلَدَهُمْ بِالضَّفادِعِ، حَتَّى فِي قَصرِ المَلِكِ.

31 H e spoke, and there came swarms of flies, And lice in all their territory.

أصدَرَ أمرَهُ، فَغَزَتْ مِصْرَ أسرابُ الذُّبابِ وَالبَعُوضِ.

32 H e gave them hail for rain, And flaming fire in their land.

حَوَّلَ مَطَرَهُمْ بَرَداً وَأرسَلَ بَرْقاً ضَرَبَ أرضَهُمْ

33 H e struck their vines also, and their fig trees, And splintered the trees of their territory.

فَدَمَّرَ كُرُومَهُمْ وَتِينَهُمْ وَكَسَّرَ أشجاراً فِي كُلِّ بِلادِهِمْ.

34 H e spoke, and locusts came, Young locusts without number,

أمَرَ، فَجاءَ الجَرادُ وَالجَنادِبُ بِلا عَدَدٍ.

35 A nd ate up all the vegetation in their land, And devoured the fruit of their ground.

أكَلَ كُلَّ نَباتٍ أخضَرَ فِي الحُقُولِ، وَكُلَّ محاصِيلِ الأرْضِ.

36 H e also destroyed all the firstborn in their land, The first of all their strength.

ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ كُلَّ ابنٍ بِكرٍ فِي كُلِّ عائِلَةٍ، الَّذينَ هُمْ بُرهانُ قُوَّةِ آبائِهِمْ.

37 H e also brought them out with silver and gold, And there was none feeble among His tribes.

أخرَجَهُمْ حامِلِينَ ذَهَباً وَفِضَّةً، وَلَمْ يَتَعَثَّرْ أحَدٌ مِنْ كُلِّ عَشائِرِ بَنِي إسرائِيلَ.

38 E gypt was glad when they departed, For the fear of them had fallen upon them.

فَرِحَ المِصْرِيُّونَ بِرَحيلِهِمْ، لأنَّهُمُ ارْتَعَبُوا مِنهُمْ.

39 H e spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to give light in the night.

كَغِطاءٍ بَسَطَ اللهُ سَحابَتَهُ فَوقَهُمْ، وَأعطاهُمْ عَمُودَ نارٍ لِيُضِيءَ اللَّيلَ.

40 T he people asked, and He brought quail, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

طَلَبُوا مِنَ اللهِ، فَأنزَلَ السَّلوَى عَلَيهِمْ. وَمِنَ الخُبزِ السَّماوِيِّ أشبَعَهُمْ.

41 H e opened the rock, and water gushed out; It ran in the dry places like a river.

شَقَّ اللهُ الصَّخرَةَ، فَاندَفَعَ الماءُ عَلَى الأرْضِ الجافَّةِ كَنَهرٍ.

42 F or He remembered His holy promise, And Abraham His servant.

لأنَّهُ تَذَكَّرَ عَهْدَهُ المُقَدَّسَ لِخادِمِهِ إبراهِيمَ،

43 H e brought out His people with joy, His chosen ones with gladness.

وَأخرَجَ شَعبَهُ المُختارَ مِنْ مِصرَ فَرِحِينَ مُتَهَلِّلِينَ.

44 H e gave them the lands of the Gentiles, And they inherited the labor of the nations,

ثُمَّ أعطاهُمُ أرْضَ شُعُوبٍ أُخْرَى، وَوَرَثُوا ثَمَرَ تَعَبِ الغُرَباءِ.

45 T hat they might observe His statutes And keep His laws. Praise the Lord!

لِكَي يُطِيعُوا شَرائِعَهُ، وَيَحفَظُوا تَعالِيمَهُ. سَبِّحُوا اللهَ.
