Psalms 2

المزمور الثانى                                                                                                                                                                           

1  Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing?

1  لِمَاذَا ارْتَجَّتِ الأُمَمُ وَتَفَكَّرَ الشُّعُوبُ فِي الْبَاطِلِ؟

2  The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying,

2  قَامَ مُلُوكُ الأَرْضِ وَتَآمَرَ الرُّؤَسَاءُ مَعاً عَلَى الرَّبِّ وَعَلَى مَسِيحِهِ قَائِلِينَ:

3  "Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us."

3  [لِنَقْطَعْ قُيُودَهُمَا وَلْنَطْرَحْ عَنَّا رُبُطَهُمَا].

4  He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The Lord shall hold them in derision.

4  اَلسَّاكِنُ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ يَضْحَكُ. الرَّبُّ يَسْتَهْزِئُ بِهِمْ.

5  Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, And distress them in His deep displeasure:

5  حِينَئِذٍ يَتَكَلَّمُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِغَضَبِهِ وَيَرْجُفُهُمْ بِغَيْظِهِ.

6  "Yet I have set My King On My holy hill of Zion."

6  أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ مَسَحْتُ مَلِكِي عَلَى صِهْيَوْنَ جَبَلِ قُدْسِي.

7  "I will declare the decree: The Lord has said to Me, 'You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.

7  إِنِّي أُخْبِرُ مِنْ جِهَةِ قَضَاءِ الرَّبِّ. قَالَ لِي: [أَنْتَ ابْنِي. أَنَا الْيَوْمَ وَلَدْتُكَ.

8  Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession.

8  اِسْأَلْنِي فَأُعْطِيَكَ الأُمَمَ مِيرَاثاً لَكَ وَأَقَاصِيَ الأَرْضِ مُلْكاً لَكَ.

9  You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel.' "

9  تُحَطِّمُهُمْ بِقَضِيبٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ. مِثْلَ إِنَاءِ خَزَّافٍ تُكَسِّرُهُمْ].

10  Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth.

10  فَالآنَ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُلُوكُ تَعَقَّلُوا. تَأَدَّبُوا يَا قُضَاةَ الأَرْضِ.

11  Serve the Lord with fear, And rejoice with trembling.

11  اعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ بِخَوْفٍ وَاهْتِفُوا بِرَعْدَةٍ.

12  Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.

12  قَبِّلُوا الاِبْنَ لِئَلاَّ يَغْضَبَ فَتَبِيدُوا مِنَ الطَّرِيقِ. لأَنَّهُ عَنْ قَلِيلٍ يَتَّقِدُ غَضَبُهُ. طُوبَى لِجَمِيعِ الْمُتَّكِلِينَ عَلَيْهِ.
