< תהילים 50 >
מִזְמוֹר לְאָסָף אֵל ׀ אֱֽלֹהִים יְֽהֹוָה דִּבֶּר וַיִּקְרָא־אָרֶץ מִמִּזְרַח־שֶׁמֶשׁ עַד־מְבֹאֽוֹ׃ | 1 |
A psalm of Asaph. The Lord God has spoken: He summons the earth from sunrise to sunset.
מִצִּיּוֹן מִכְלַל־יֹפִי אֱלֹהִים הוֹפִֽיעַ׃ | 2 |
From Zion, perfection of beauty, God’s glory shines forth.
יָבֹא אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְֽאַל־יֶחֱרַשׁ אֵשׁ־לְפָנָיו תֹּאכֵל וּסְבִיבָיו נִשְׂעֲרָה מְאֹֽד׃ | 3 |
Our God comes, he cannot keep silence, devouring fire is before him, and furious tempest around him.
יִקְרָא אֶל־הַשָּׁמַיִם מֵעָל וְאֶל־הָאָרֶץ לָדִין עַמּֽוֹ׃ | 4 |
He summons the heavens above and the earth to judge his people.
אִסְפוּ־לִי חֲסִידָי כֹּרְתֵי בְרִיתִי עֲלֵי־זָֽבַח׃ | 5 |
Gather to him his saints by covenant-sacrifice bound to him;
וַיַּגִּידוּ שָׁמַיִם צִדְקוֹ כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִים ׀ שֹׁפֵט הוּא סֶֽלָה׃ | 6 |
that the heavens may declare his justice, for a God of justice is he. (Selah)
שִׁמְעָה עַמִּי ׀ וַאֲדַבֵּרָה יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָעִידָה בָּךְ אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֶיךָ אָנֹֽכִי׃ | 7 |
‘Hear, O my people, and I will speak, and protest to you, O Israel: I am the Lord, your God.
לֹא עַל־זְבָחֶיךָ אוֹכִיחֶךָ וְעוֹלֹתֶיךָ לְנֶגְדִּי תָמִֽיד׃ | 8 |
Not for your sacrifices will I reprove you your burnt-offerings are ever before me
לֹא־אֶקַּח מִבֵּיתְךָ פָר מִמִּכְלְאֹתֶיךָ עַתּוּדִֽים׃ | 9 |
Not a bullock will I take from your house, nor male goats out of your folds;
כִּי־לִי כׇל־חַיְתוֹ־יָעַר בְּהֵמוֹת בְּהַרְרֵי־אָֽלֶף׃ | 10 |
for all beasts of the forest are mine, and the kine on a thousand hills.
יָדַעְתִּי כׇּל־עוֹף הָרִים וְזִיז שָׂדַי עִמָּדִֽי׃ | 11 |
I know all the birds of the air, all that moves on the fields is mine.
אִם־אֶרְעַב לֹא־אֹמַר לָךְ כִּי־לִי תֵבֵל וּמְלֹאָֽהּ׃ | 12 |
Were I hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and its fulness are mine.
הַאוֹכַל בְּשַׂר אַבִּירִים וְדַם עַתּוּדִים אֶשְׁתֶּֽה׃ | 13 |
Am I such as to eat bulls’ flesh, or drink the blood of goats?
זְבַח לֵאלֹהִים תּוֹדָה וְשַׁלֵּם לְעֶלְיוֹן נְדָרֶֽיךָ׃ | 14 |
Offer to God a thank-offering, pay the Most High your vows.
וּקְרָאֵנִי בְּיוֹם צָרָה אֲחַלֶּצְךָ וּֽתְכַבְּדֵֽנִי׃ | 15 |
Summon me in the day of distress, I will rescue you, so will you honour me.’
וְלָרָשָׁע ׀ אָמַר אֱלֹהִים מַה־לְּךָ לְסַפֵּר חֻקָּי וַתִּשָּׂא בְרִיתִי עֲלֵי־פִֽיךָ׃ | 16 |
But to the wicked God says: ‘What right have you to talk of my statutes, or take my covenant into your mouth
וְאַתָּה שָׂנֵאתָ מוּסָר וַתַּשְׁלֵךְ דְּבָרַי אַחֲרֶֽיךָ׃ | 17 |
while you yourself hate correction, and cast my words behind you?
אִם־רָאִיתָ גַנָּב וַתִּרֶץ עִמּוֹ וְעִם מְנָאֲפִים חֶלְקֶֽךָ׃ | 18 |
When you see a thief, you run with them; with adulterers you keep company.
פִּיךָ שָׁלַחְתָּ בְרָעָה וּלְשׁוֹנְךָ תַּצְמִיד מִרְמָֽה׃ | 19 |
You let your mouth loose for evil, your tongue contrives deceit.
תֵּשֵׁב בְּאָחִיךָ תְדַבֵּר בְּבֶֽן־אִמְּךָ תִּתֶּן־דֹּֽפִי׃ | 20 |
You shamefully speak of your kin, and slander your own mother’s son.
אֵלֶּה עָשִׂיתָ ׀ וְֽהֶחֱרַשְׁתִּי דִּמִּיתָ הֱיֽוֹת־אֶהְיֶה כָמוֹךָ אוֹכִיחֲךָ וְאֶעֶרְכָה לְעֵינֶֽיךָ׃ | 21 |
And because I kept silence at this, you did take me for one like yourself. But I will convict you and show you plainly.
בִּינוּ־נָא זֹאת שֹׁכְחֵי אֱלוֹהַּ פֶּן־אֶטְרֹף וְאֵין מַצִּֽיל׃ | 22 |
‘Now you who forget God, mark this, lest I rend you, past hope of deliverance.
זֹבֵחַ תּוֹדָה יְֽכַבְּדָנְנִי וְשָׂם דֶּרֶךְ אַרְאֶנּוּ בְּיֵשַׁע אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 23 |
Those who bring a thank-offering honour me; but to those: who follows my way, I will show the salvation of God.’
