1 R ejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! For praise from the upright is beautiful.

ابتَهِجُوا وَرَنِّمُوا بِاللهِ أيُّها الصّالِحُونَ! التَّسبِيحُ لائِقٌ بِمُستَقِيمِي القُلُوبِ!

2 P raise the Lord with the harp; Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.

سَبِّحُوا اللهَ بِعَزْفِ العُودِ! اعزِفُوا لَهُ بِقِيثارٍ ذِي عَشْرَةِ أوتارٍ.

3 S ing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

رَنَّمُوا لَهُ تَرنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً. أحسِنُوا العَزْفَ وَاهتِفُوا فَرَحاً.

4 F or the word of the Lord is right, And all His work is done in truth.

لِأنَّ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ صادِقَةٌ. وَهُوَ أمِينٌ فِي كُلِّ أفعالِهِ.

5 H e loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

يُحِبُّ الاسْتِقامَةَ وَالعَدلَ. وَالأرْضُ مَلأى بِرَحمَةِ اللهِ وَمَحَبَّتِهِ.

6 B y the word of the Lord the heavens were made, And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.

بِأمْرِ اللهِ خُلِقَتِ السَّماواتُ. وَكُلُّ نُجُومِ السَّماءِ وُجِدَتْ بِنَسْمَةِ فَمِهِ.

7 H e gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deep in storehouses.

جَمَعَ مِياهَ البَحْرِ مَعاً، وَوَضَعَ المُحِيطَ فِي مَكانِهِ.

8 L et all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

يا كُلَّ سُكّانِ الأرْضِ اتَّقُوا اللهَ. خافُوهُ يا جَميعَ سُكّانِ المَسكُونَةِ.

9 F or He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.

لِأنَّهُ يَقُولُ شَيئاً فَيَكُونَ، وَيأمُرُ فَيَصِيرُ!

10 T he Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.

قادِرٌ هُوَ اللهُ عَلَى إبْطالِ مُخَطَّطاتِ الأُمَمِ. وَعَلَى إفْناءِ نَوايا الشُّعُوبِ كُلِّها.

11 T he counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.

أمّا قَصْدُ اللهِ فَإلَى الأبَدِ يَدُومُ. خُطَطُهُ تَبقَى جِيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ.

12 B lessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, The people He has chosen as His own inheritance.

هَنِيئاً لِأُمَّةٍ جَعَلَتْ اللهَ إلَهَها، لِأُمَّةٍ اختارَها اللهُ مُلْكاً.

13 T he Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.

مِنَ السَّماءِ تَطَلَّعَ اللهُ ، وَرَأى البَشَرَ جَمِيعاً.

14 F rom the place of His dwelling He looks On all the inhabitants of the earth;

مِنْ عَرشِهِ يُشرِفُ عَلَى كُلِّ سُكّانِ الأرْضِ.

15 H e fashions their hearts individually; He considers all their works.

هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَهُمْ كُلَّهُمْ، وَيَفهَمُ كُلَّ ما يَفعَلُونَ.

16 N o king is saved by the multitude of an army; A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

لا يَنتَصِرُ المُلُوكُ بِكَثْرَةِ جُنُودِهِمْ، وَلا يَغلِبُ الجُنُودُ بِقُوَّتِهِمْ.

17 A horse is a vain hope for safety; Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.

الخَيلُ القَوِيَّةُ لا تَضْمَنُ النَّصْرَ. وَقُوَّتُها لا تُنَجِّي.

18 B ehold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy,

ها عَينُ اللهِ تَسْهَرُ عَلَى خائِفِيهِ، يَرْعَى الَّذِينَ يَتَرَقَّبُونَ مَحَبَّتَهُ الصّادِقَةَ.

19 T o deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.

مِنَ المَوْتِ يُنقِذُهُمْ، وَفِي المَجاعَةِ يُحيِيهِمْ.

20 O ur soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and our shield.

تَتَرَقَّبُ اللهَ نُفُوسُنا، لِأنَّهُ لَنا مُعِينٌ، وَعَنّا مُحامٍ.

21 F or our heart shall rejoice in Him, Because we have trusted in His holy name.

لِأنَّنا نَفْرَحُ بِهِ. وَعَلَى اسْمِهِ القُدُّوسِ نَتَّكِلُ.

22 L et Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, Just as we hope in You.

ظَلِّلنا يا اللهُ بِرَحمَتِكَ وَمَحَبَّتِكَ، فَرَجاؤُنا هُوَ فِيكَ.
