SMITH VAN DYKENEW JERUSALEM
1 لامام المغنين. لبني قورح. مزمور‎. ‎اسمعوا هذا يا جميع الشعوب. اصغوا يا جميع سكان الدنيا1 [For the choirmaster Of the sons of Korah Psalm] Hear this, all nations, listen, al who dwel on earth,
2 عال ودون اغنياء وفقراء سواء‎.2 people high and low, rich and poor alike!
3 ‎فمي يتكلم بالحكم ولهج قلبي فهم‎.3 My lips have wisdom to utter, my heart good sense to whisper.
4 ‎اميل اذني الى مثل واوضح بعود لغزي4 I listen careful y to a proverb, I set my riddle to the music of the harp.
5 لماذا اخاف في ايام الشر عندما يحيط بي اثم متعقّبيّ‎.5 Why should I be afraid in times of trouble? Malice dogs me and hems me in.
6 ‎الذين يتكلون على ثروتهم وبكثرة غناهم يفتخرون‎.6 They trust in their wealth, and boast of the profusion of their riches.
7 ‎الاخ لن يفدي الانسان فداء ولا يعطي الله كفارة عنه‎.7 But no one can ever redeem himself or pay his own ransom to God,
8 ‎وكريمة هي فدية نفوسهم فغلقت الى الدهر‎.8 the price for himself is too high; it can never be
9 ‎حتى يحيا الى الابد فلا يرى القبر‎.9 that he wil live on for ever and avoid the sight of the abyss.
10 ‎بل يراه. الحكماء يموتون. كذلك الجاهل والبليد يهلكان ويتركان ثروتهما لآخرين‎.10 For he wil see the wise also die no less than the fool and the brute, and leave their wealth behind forothers.
11 ‎باطنهم ان بيوتهم الى الابد مساكنهم الى دور فدور. ينادون باسمائهم في الاراضي‎.11 For ever no home but their tombs, their dwel ing-place age after age, though they gave their name towhole territories.
12 ‎والانسان في كرامة لا يبيت. يشبه البهائم التي تباد‎.12 In prosperity people lose their good sense, they become no better than dumb animals.
13 ‎هذا طريقهم اعتمادهم وخلفاؤهم يرتضون باقوالهم. سلاه‎.13 So they go on in their self-assurance, right up to the end they are content with their lot.Pause
14 ‎مثل الغنم للهاوية يساقون. الموت يرعاهم ويسودهم المستقيمون‎. ‎غداة وصورتهم تبلى. الهاوية مسكن لهم‎.14 They are penned in Sheol like sheep, Death wil lead them to pasture, and those who are honest wilrule over them. In the morning al trace of them wil be gone, Sheol wil be their home.
15 ‎انما الله يفدي نفسي من يد الهاوية لانه يأخذني. سلاه15 But my soul God wil ransom from the clutches of Sheol, and wil snatch me up.Pause
16 لا تخش اذا استغنى انسان اذا زاد مجد بيته‎.16 Do not be overawed when someone gets rich, and lives in ever greater splendour;
17 ‎لانه عند موته كله لا يأخذ. لا ينزل وراءه مجده‎.17 when he dies he wil take nothing with him, his wealth wil not go down with him.
18 ‎لانه في حياته يبارك نفسه. ويحمدونك اذا احسنت الى نفسك‎.18 Though he pampered himself while he lived -- and people praise you for looking after yourself-
19 ‎تدخل الى جيل آبائه الذين لا يعاينون النور الى الابد‎.19 he will go to join the ranks of his ancestors, who wil never again see the light.
20 ‎انسان في كرامة ولا يفهم يشبه البهائم التي تباد20 In prosperity people lose their good sense, they become no better than dumb animals.
