< תהילים 107 >
הֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ | 1 |
O give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.
יֹאמְרוּ גְּאוּלֵי יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר גְּאָלָם מִיַּד־צָֽר׃ | 2 |
Let the redeemed of Jehovah say [so], Whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
וּֽמֵאֲרָצוֹת קִבְּצָם מִמִּזְרָח וּמִֽמַּעֲרָב מִצָּפוֹן וּמִיָּֽם׃ | 3 |
And gathered out of the lands, From the east and from the west, From the north and from the south.
תָּעוּ בַמִּדְבָּר בִּישִׁימוֹן דָּרֶךְ עִיר מוֹשָׁב לֹא מָצָֽאוּ׃ | 4 |
They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way; They found no city of habitation.
רְעֵבִים גַּם־צְמֵאִים נַפְשָׁם בָּהֶם תִּתְעַטָּֽף׃ | 5 |
Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.
וַיִּצְעֲקוּ אֶל־יְהוָה בַּצַּר לָהֶם מִמְּצֽוּקוֹתֵיהֶם יַצִּילֵֽם׃ | 6 |
Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses,
וַיּֽ͏ַדְרִיכֵם בְּדֶרֶךְ יְשָׁרָה לָלֶכֶת אֶל־עִיר מוֹשָֽׁב׃ | 7 |
He led them also by a straight way, That they might go to a city of habitation.
יוֹדוּ לַיהוָה חַסְדּוֹ וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו לִבְנֵי אָדָֽם׃ | 8 |
Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
כִּי־הִשְׂבִּיעַ נֶפֶשׁ שֹׁקֵקָה וְנֶפֶשׁ רְעֵבָה מִלֵּא־טֽוֹב׃ | 9 |
For he satisfieth the longing soul, And the hungry soul he filleth with good.
יֹשְׁבֵי חֹשֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָוֶת אֲסִירֵי עֳנִי וּבַרְזֶֽל׃ | 10 |
Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron,
כִּֽי־הִמְרוּ אִמְרֵי־אֵל וַעֲצַת עֶלְיוֹן נָאָֽצוּ׃ | 11 |
Because they rebelled against the words of God, And contemned the counsel of the Most High:
וַיַּכְנַע בֶּעָמָל לִבָּם כָּשְׁלוּ וְאֵין עֹזֵֽר׃ | 12 |
Therefore he brought down their heart with labor; They fell down, and there was none to help.
וַיִּזְעֲקוּ אֶל־יְהוָה בַּצַּר לָהֶם מִמְּצֻֽקוֹתֵיהֶם יוֹשִׁיעֵֽם׃ | 13 |
Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.
יֽוֹצִיאֵם מֵחֹשֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָוֶת וּמוֹסְרוֹתֵיהֶם יְנַתֵּֽק׃ | 14 |
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And brake their bonds in sunder.
יוֹדוּ לַיהוָה חַסְדּוֹ וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו לִבְנֵי אָדָֽם׃ | 15 |
Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
כִּֽי־שִׁבַּר דַּלְתוֹת נְחֹשֶׁת וּבְרִיחֵי בַרְזֶל גִּדֵּֽעַ׃ | 16 |
For he hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder.
אֱוִלִים מִדֶּרֶךְ פִּשְׁעָם וּֽמֵעֲוֺֽנֹתֵיהֶם יִתְעַנּֽוּ׃ | 17 |
Fools because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
כָּל־אֹכֶל תְּתַעֵב נַפְשָׁם וַיַּגִּיעוּ עַד־שַׁעֲרֵי מָֽוֶת׃ | 18 |
Their soul abhorreth all manner of food; And they draw near unto the gates of death.
וַיִּזְעֲקוּ אֶל־יְהוָה בַּצַּר לָהֶם מִמְּצֻֽקוֹתֵיהֶם יוֹשִׁיעֵֽם׃ | 19 |
Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he saveth them out of their distresses.
יִשְׁלַח דְּבָרוֹ וְיִרְפָּאֵם וִֽימַלֵּט מִשְּׁחִיתוֹתָֽם׃ | 20 |
He sendeth his word, and healeth them, And delivereth [them] from their destructions.
יוֹדוּ לַיהוָה חַסְדּוֹ וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו לִבְנֵי אָדָֽם׃ | 21 |
Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
וְיִזְבְּחוּ זִבְחֵי תוֹדָה וִֽיסַפְּרוּ מַעֲשָׂיו בְּרִנָּֽה׃ | 22 |
And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, And declare his works with singing.
יוֹרְדֵי הַיָּם בָּאֳנִיּוֹת עֹשֵׂי מְלָאכָה בְּמַיִם רַבִּֽים׃ | 23 |
They that go down to the sea in ships, That do business in great waters;
הֵמָּה רָאוּ מַעֲשֵׂי יְהוָה וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו בִּמְצוּלָֽה׃ | 24 |
These see the works of Jehovah, And his wonders in the deep.
וַיֹּאמֶר וַֽיַּעֲמֵד רוּחַ סְעָרָה וַתְּרוֹמֵם גַּלָּֽיו׃ | 25 |
For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, Which lifteth up the waves thereof.
יַעֲלוּ שָׁמַיִם יֵרְדוּ תְהוֹמוֹת נַפְשָׁם בְּרָעָה תִתְמוֹגָֽג׃ | 26 |
They mount up to the heavens, they go down again to the depths: Their soul melteth away because of trouble.
יָחוֹגּוּ וְיָנוּעוּ כַּשִּׁכּוֹר וְכָל־חָכְמָתָם תִּתְבַּלָּֽע׃ | 27 |
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits’ end.
וַיִּצְעֲקוּ אֶל־יְהוָה בַּצַּר לָהֶם וּֽמִמְּצֽוּקֹתֵיהֶם יוֹצִיאֵֽם׃ | 28 |
Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he bringeth them out of their distresses.
יָקֵם סְעָרָה לִדְמָמָה וַיֶּחֱשׁוּ גַּלֵּיהֶֽם׃ | 29 |
He maketh the storm a calm, So that the waves thereof are still.
וַיִּשְׂמְחוּ כִֽי־יִשְׁתֹּקוּ וַיַּנְחֵם אֶל־מְחוֹז חֶפְצָֽם׃ | 30 |
Then are they glad because they are quiet; So he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
יוֹדוּ לַיהוָה חַסְדּוֹ וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו לִבְנֵי אָדָֽם׃ | 31 |
Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
וִֽירֹמְמוּהוּ בִּקְהַל־עָם וּבְמוֹשַׁב זְקֵנִים יְהַלְלֽוּהוּ׃ | 32 |
Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, And praise him in the seat of the elders.
יָשֵׂם נְהָרוֹת לְמִדְבָּר וּמֹצָאֵי מַיִם לְצִמָּאֽוֹן׃ | 33 |
He turneth rivers into a wilderness, And watersprings into a thirsty ground;
אֶרֶץ פְּרִי לִמְלֵחָה מֵרָעַת יֹשְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃ | 34 |
A fruitful land into a salt desert, For the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
יָשֵׂם מִדְבָּר לַֽאֲגַם־מַיִם וְאֶרֶץ צִיָּה לְמֹצָאֵי מָֽיִם׃ | 35 |
He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, And a dry land into watersprings.
וַיּוֹשֶׁב שָׁם רְעֵבִים וַיְכוֹנְנוּ עִיר מוֹשָֽׁב׃ | 36 |
And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, That they may prepare a city of habitation,
וַיִּזְרְעוּ שָׂדוֹת וַיִּטְּעוּ כְרָמִים וַיַּעֲשׂוּ פְּרִי תְבֽוּאָה׃ | 37 |
And sow fields, and plant vineyards, And get them fruits of increase.
וַיְבָרֲכֵם וַיִּרְבּוּ מְאֹד וּבְהֶמְתָּם לֹא יַמְעִֽיט׃ | 38 |
He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; And he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
וַיִּמְעֲטוּ וַיָּשֹׁחוּ מֵעֹצֶר רָעָה וְיָגֽוֹן׃ | 39 |
Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
שֹׁפֵךְ בּוּז עַל־נְדִיבִים וַיַּתְעֵם בְּתֹהוּ לֹא־דָֽרֶךְ׃ | 40 |
He poureth contempt upon princes, And causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way.
וַיְשַׂגֵּב אֶבְיוֹן מֵעוֹנִי וַיָּשֶׂם כַּצֹּאן מִשְׁפָּחֽוֹת׃ | 41 |
Yet setteth he the needy on high from affliction, And maketh [him] families like a flock.
יִרְאוּ יְשָׁרִים וְיִשְׂמָחוּ וְכָל־עַוְלָה קָפְצָה פִּֽיהָ׃ | 42 |
The upright shall see it, and be glad; And all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
מִי־חָכָם וְיִשְׁמָר־אֵלֶּה וְיִתְבּֽוֹנְנוּ חַֽסְדֵי יְהוָֽה׃ | 43 |
Whoso is wise will give heed to these things; And they will consider the lovingkindnesses of Jehovah.
