Psalms 68

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.

1 يَقُومُ اللهُ فَيَتَبَدَّدُ أَعْدَاؤُهُ وَيَفِرُّ مُبْغِضُوهُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ.

2 As smoke is blown away, You will drive them out; as wax melts before the fire, the wicked will perish in the presence of God.

2 كَمَا يَتَلاشَى الدُّخَانُ تُلاشِيهِمْ، وَكَمَا يَذُوبُ الشَّمْعُ قُرْبَ النَّارِ يَهْلِكُ الأَشْرَارُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

3 But the righteous will be glad and rejoice before God; they will celebrate with joy.

3 أَمَّا الأَبْرَارُ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَفْرَحُونَ وَيَبْتَهِجُونَ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَيَغْتَبِطُونَ سُرُوراً.

4 Sing to God! Sing praises to His name. Exalt Him who rides on the clouds—His name is the LORD—and rejoice before Him.

4 رَنِّمُوا للهِ، اشْدُوا لاسْمِهِ. مَهِّدُوا طَرِيقاً لِلرَّاكِبِ فِي الْقِفَارِ ظَافِراً. إِنَّ اسْمَهُ «الْكَائِنُ». وَتَهَلَّلُوا فِي مَحْضَرِهِ.

5 A father of the fatherless and a defender of widows is God in His holy habitation.

5 اللهُ الْمُقِيمُ فِي مَسْكَنِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ هُوَ أَبُو الْيَتَامَى وَقَاضِي الأَرَامِلِ.

6 God settles the lonely in families; He leads the prisoners out to prosperity, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.

6 يُسْكِنُ اللهُ الْمُتَوَحِّدِينَ بَيْتاً، وَيُطْلِقُ الْمُقَيَّدِينَ إِلَى النَّجَاحِ، أَمَّا الْمُتَمَرِّدُونَ فَيَسْكُنُونَ أَرْضاً مُحْرِقَةً.

7 O God, when You went out before Your people, when You marched through the wasteland, Selah

7 يَا اللهُ، عِنْدَمَا خَرَجْتَ أَمَامَ شَعْبِكَ، وَقُدْتَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ،

8 the earth shook and the heavens poured down rain before God, the One on Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.

8 رَجَفَتِ الأَرْضُ، وَهَطَلَتِ السَّمَاءُ مَطَراً، وارْتَعَدَ جَبَلُ سِينَاءَ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ اللهِ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

9 You sent abundant rain, O God; You refreshed Your weary inheritance.

9 مَطَراً غَزِيراً سَكَبْتَ يَا اللهُ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ مِيرَاثِكَ، وَعِنْدَ إِعْيَائِهِ أَنْتَ شَدَّدْتَهُ.

10 Your flock settled therein; O God, from Your bounty You provided for the poor.

10 هُنَاكَ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ حَلَّ قَطِيعُكَ، وَأَنْتَ بِجُودِكَ وَفَّرْتَ خَيْراً لِلْمَسَاكِينِ، يَا اللهُ.

11 The Lord gives the command; a great company of women proclaim it:

11 يُصْدِرُ السَّيِّدُ أَمْرَهُ فَيَنْهَزِمُ الْعَدُوُّ فَيَحْمِلُ جَمْعٌ غَفِيرٌ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ بُشْرَى النَّصْرِ.

12 “Kings and their armies flee in haste; she who waits at home divides the plunder.

12 يَهْرُبُ مُلُوكُ الْجُيُوشِ، نَعَمْ يَهْرُبُونَ. أَمَّا النِّسَاءُ المُلازِمَاتُ الْبُيُوتَ فَيَقْتَسِمْنَ الْغَنَائِمَ.

13 Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.”

13 مَعَ أَنَّكُمْ رَقَدْتُمْ بَيْنَ الْحَظَائِرِ تَكُونُونَ كَحَمَامَةٍ أَجْنِحَتُهَا مُغَشَّاةٌ بِالْفِضَّةِ، وَرِيشُهَا بِالذَّهَبِ الأَصْفَرِ.

14 When the Almighty scattered the kings in the land, it was like the snow falling on Zalmon.

14 عِنْدَمَا بَدَّدَ الْقَدِيرُ مُلُوكاً فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، ابْيَضَّتِ الأَرْضُ كَالثَّلْجِ فِي جَبَلِ صَلْمُونَ.

15 A mountain of God is Mount Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is Mount Bashan.

15 جَبَلُ بَاشَانَ هُوَ جَبَلُ اللهِ؛ جَبَلٌ كَثِيرُ الْقِمَمِ.

16 Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? This is the mountain God chose for His dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.

16 أَيَّتُهَا الْجِبَالُ الْكَثِيرَةُ الْقِمَمِ لِمَاذَا تَتَفَرَّسْنَ بِحَسَدٍ فِي الْجَبَلِ الَّذِي اشْتَهَاهُ اللهُ لِسُكْنَاهُ؟ إِنَّ اللهَ سَيَسْكُنُ فِيهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

17 The chariots of God are tens of thousands—thousands of thousands are they; the Lord is in His sanctuary as He was at Sinai.

17 مَرْكَبَاتُ الرَّبِّ كَثِيرَةٌ لَا تُحْصَى والرَّبُّ فِي وَسَطِهَا، فَصَارَ جَبَلُ صِهْيَوْنَ مُمَاثِلاً لِجَبَلِ سِينَاءَ فِي القَدَاسَةِ.

18 You have ascended on high; You have led captives away. You have received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.

18 يَصْعَدُ إِلَى الْعُلَى وَيَأْخُذُ مَعَهُ سَبَايَا كَثِيرِينَ؛ يُوَزِّعُ الْغَنَائِمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَحَتَّى عَلَى الَّذِينَ تَمَرَّدُوا قَبْلاً عَلَى مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاكَ، أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ.

19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation. Selah

19 تَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَنَا يَوْماً فَيَوْماً. إِنَّهُ إِلَهُ خَلاصِنَا.

20 Our God is a God of deliverance; the Lord GOD is our rescuer from death.

20 إِلَهُنَا هُوَ إلَهُ الْخَلاصِ، وَعِنْدَ الرَّبِّ السَّيِّدِ مَنَافِذُ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ.

21 Surely God will crush the heads of His enemies, the hairy crowns of those who persist in guilty ways.

21 حَقّاً سَيَضْرِبُ الرَّبُّ رُؤُوسَ أَعْدَائِهِ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْهَامَةَ الْمَكْسُوَّةَ شَعْراً لِمَنْ يُمْعِنُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْمَعَاصِي.

22 The Lord said, “I will retrieve them from Bashan, I will bring them up from the depths of the sea,

22 يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ: «سَأُرْجِعُ أَعْدَاءَكُمْ مِنْ بَاشَانَ، سَأُرْجِعُهُمْ مِنْ أَعْمَاقِ الْبَحْرِ،

23 that your foot may be dipped in the blood of your foes—the tongues of your dogs in the same.”

23 فَتَغْمِسُونَ أَرْجُلَكُمْ فِي دَمِهِمْ، وَتَأْخُذُ أَلْسِنَةُ الْكِلابِ نَصِيبَهَا مِنَ الأَعْدَاءِ».

24 They have seen Your procession, O God—the march of my God and King into the sanctuary.

24 لَقَدْ عَايَنَ الشَّعْبُ مَوْكِبَكَ يَا اللهُ، مَوْكِبَ إِلَهِي وَمَلِكِي الْمُتَّجِهَ إِلَى الْمَقْدِسِ.

25 The singers lead the way, the musicians follow after, among the maidens playing tambourines.

25 سَارَ الْمُغَنُّونَ فِي الطَّلِيعَةِ، وَضَارِبُو الأَوْتَارِ خَلْفَهُمْ، وَفِي الْوَسَطِ صَبَايَا يَضْرِبْنَ عَلَى الدُّفُوفِ.

26 Bless God in the great congregation; bless the LORD from the fountain of Israel.

26 بَارِكُوا اللهَ السَّيِّدَ فِي الْمَحَافِلِ يَا نَسْلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

27 There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah in their company, the princes of Zebulun and of Naphtali.

27 هُنَاكَ فِي طَلِيعَتِهِمْ بِنْيَامِينُ الصَّغِيرُ وَعَلَى أَثَرِهِ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا فِي جَمَاعَتِهِمْ، ثُمَّ رُؤَسَاءُ زَبُولُونَ وَرُؤَسَاءُ نَفْتَالِي.

28 Summon Your power, O God; show Your strength, O God, which You have exerted on our behalf.

28 قَدْ أَعَزَّكَ اللهُ، فَأَظْهِرْ يَا اللهُ قُوَّتَكَ بِمَا صَنَعْتَ لَنَا مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتٍ.

29 Because of Your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring You gifts.

29 يُقَدِّمُ الْمُلُوكُ لَكَ الْهَدَايَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لأَنَّ هَيْكَلَكَ فِيهَا

30 Rebuke the beast in the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations, until it submits, bringing bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.

30 انْتَهِرْ مِصْرَ، الْوَحْشَ الكَامِنَ بَيْنَ الْقَصَبِ. انْتَهِرِ الأُمَمَ الْقَوِيَّةَ الَّتِي تُشْبِهُ قَطِيعَ الثِّيرَانِ؛ حَتَّى يَخْضَعُوا وَيَدْفَعُوا لَكَ جِزْيَةَ فِضَّةٍ. بَدِّدِ الشُّعُوبَ الْمُوْلَعَةَ بِالحَرْبِ.

31 Envoys will arrive from Egypt; Cush will stretch out her hands to God.

31 يَفِدُ إِلَيْكَ شُرَفَاءُ مِنْ مِصْرَ وَتَبْسُطُ الْحَبَشَةُ يَدَيْهَا مُسْرِعَةً إِعْرَاباً عَنْ خُضُوعِهَا للهِ.

32 Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth; sing praises to the Lord—Selah

32 يَا مَمَالِكَ الأَرْضِ غَنُّوا للهِ. رَنِّمُوا لِلسَّيِّدِ،

33 to Him who rides upon the highest heavens of old; behold, His mighty voice resounds.

33 لِلرَّاكِبِ عَلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ، السَّمَاوَاتِ القَدِيمَةِ، مُنْتَصِراً. هَا هُوَ يُدَوِّي بِصَوْتِهِ عَالِياً، صَوْتِ الْقُدْرَةِ.

34 Ascribe the power to God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose strength is in the skies.

34 أَعْطُوا مَجْداً للهِ، فَهُوَ بَسَطَ جَلالَهُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقُوَّتَهُ فِي الْغَمَامِ.

35 O God, You are awesome in Your sanctuary; the God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to His people. Blessed be God!

35 أَنْتَ مُرْهِبٌ يَا اللهُ مِنْ مَقَادِسِكَ. إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَفْسُهُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَمُدُّ شَعْبَهُ قُوَّةً وَشِدَّةً. تَبَارَكَ اللهُ.
