المَزامِير 95

١ 1 هَيَّا نُرَنِّمُ عَالِياً لِلرَّبِّ، وَنَهْتِفُ فَرَحاً لِصَخْرَةِ خَلاصِنَا.

O come, let us sing unto the LORD; let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.

٢ 2 لِنَتَقَدَّمْ أَمَامَ حَضْرَتِهِ بِالشُّكْرِ، وَنَهْتِفْ لَهُ بِالتَّرْنِيمِ.

Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, let us shout for joy unto Him with psalms.

٣ 3 لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهٌ عَظِيمٌ، وَمَلِكٌ كَبِيرٌ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الآلِهَةِ.

For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods;

٤ 4 فِي يَدِهِ أَعْمَاقُ الأَرْضِ، وَقِمَمُ الْجِبَالِ مِلْكٌ لَهُ.

In whose hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are His also.

٥ 5 لَهُ الْبَحْرُ، وَهُوَ قَدْ صَنَعَهُ، وَيَدَاهُ كَوَّنَتَا الْيَابِسَةَ.

The sea is His, and He made it; and His hands formed the dry land.

٦ 6 تَعَالَوْا نَسْجُدُ وَنَنْحَنِي، لِنَرْكَعْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ صَانِعِنَا،

O come, let us bow down and bend the knee; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;

٧ 7 فَإِنَّهُ هُوَ إِلَهُنَا، وَنَحْنُ رَعِيَّتُهُ وَقَطِيعُهُ الَّذِي يَقُودُهُ بِيَدِهِ. الْيَوْمَ إِنْ سَمِعْتُمْ صَوْتَهُ،

For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the flock of His hand. To-day, if ye would but hearken to His voice!

٨ 8 فَلَا تُقَسُّوا قُلُوبَكُمْ، كَمَا حَدَثَ فِي يَوْمِ مَسَّةَ (أَيْ الامْتِحَانِ) فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ،

'Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness;

٩ 9 عِنْدَمَا امْتَحَنَنِي آبَاؤُكُمْ وَاخْتَبَرُونِي وَشَهِدُوا جَمِيعَ عَجَائِبِي.

When your fathers tried Me, proved Me, even though they saw My work.

١٠ 10 أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً رَفَضْتُ ذَلِكَ الْجِيلَ، وَقُلْتُ: «هُمْ شَعْبٌ أَضَلَّتْهُمْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَلَمْ يَعْرِفُوا قَطُّ طُرُقِي».

For forty years was I wearied with that generation, and said: It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known My ways;

١١ 11 فَأَقْسَمْتُ فِي غَضَبِي قَائِلاً: «إِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَدْخُلُوا مَكَانَ رَاحَتِي».

Wherefore I swore in My wrath, that they should not enter into My rest.'
