לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃ הַשָּׁמַ֗יִם מְֽסַפְּרִ֥ים כְּבֹֽוד־אֵ֑ל וּֽמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָ֝דָ֗יו מַגִּ֥יד הָרָקִֽיעַ׃ 1
For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth His handiwork;
יֹ֣ום לְ֭יֹום יַבִּ֣יעַֽ אֹ֑מֶר וְלַ֥יְלָה לְּ֝לַ֗יְלָה יְחַוֶּה־דָּֽעַת׃ 2
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night revealeth knowledge;
אֵֽין־אֹ֭מֶר וְאֵ֣ין דְּבָרִ֑ים בְּ֝לִ֗י נִשְׁמָ֥ע קֹולָֽם׃ 3
There is no speech, there are no words, neither is their voice heard.
בְּכָל־הָאָ֨רֶץ ׀ יָ֘צָ֤א קַוָּ֗ם וּבִקְצֵ֣ה תֵ֭בֵל מִלֵּיהֶ֑ם לַ֝שֶּׁ֗מֶשׁ שָֽׂם־אֹ֥הֶל בָּהֶֽם׃ 4
Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath He set a tent for the sun,
וְה֗וּא כְּ֭חָתָן יֹצֵ֣א מֵחֻפָּתֹ֑ו יָשִׂ֥ישׂ כְּ֝גִבֹּ֗ור לָר֥וּץ אֹֽרַח׃ 5
Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run his course.
מִקְצֵ֤ה הַשָּׁמַ֨יִם ׀ מֹֽוצָאֹ֗ו וּתְקוּפָתֹ֥ו עַל־קְצֹותָ֑ם וְאֵ֥ין נִ֝סְתָּ֗ר מֵֽחַמָּתֹו׃ 6
His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
תֹּ֘ורַ֤ת יְהוָ֣ה תְּ֭מִימָה מְשִׁ֣יבַת נָ֑פֶשׁ עֵד֥וּת יְהוָ֥ה נֶ֝אֱמָנָ֗ה מַחְכִּ֥ימַת פֶּֽתִי׃ 7
The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
פִּקּ֘וּדֵ֤י יְהוָ֣ה יְ֭שָׁרִים מְשַׂמְּחֵי־לֵ֑ב מִצְוַ֥ת יְהוָ֥ה בָּ֝רָ֗ה מְאִירַ֥ת עֵינָֽיִם׃ 8
The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
יִרְאַ֤ת יְהוָ֨ה ׀ טְהֹורָה֮ עֹומֶ֪דֶת לָ֫עַ֥ד מִֽשְׁפְּטֵי־יְהוָ֥ה אֱמֶ֑ת צָֽדְק֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃ 9
The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever; the ordinances of the LORD are true, they are righteous altogether;
הַֽנֶּחֱמָדִ֗ים מִ֭זָּהָב וּמִפַּ֣ז רָ֑ב וּמְתוּקִ֥ים מִ֝דְּבַ֗שׁ וְנֹ֣פֶת צוּפִֽים׃ 10
More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
גַּֽם־עַ֭בְדְּךָ נִזְהָ֣ר בָּהֶ֑ם בְּ֝שָׁמְרָ֗ם עֵ֣קֶב רָֽב׃ 11
Moreover by them is Thy servant warned; in keeping of them there is great reward.
שְׁגִיאֹ֥ות מִֽי־יָבִ֑ין מִֽנִּסְתָּרֹ֥ות נַקֵּֽנִי׃ 12
Who can discern his errors? Clear Thou me from hidden faults.
גַּ֤ם מִזֵּדִ֨ים ׀ חֲשֹׂ֬ךְ עַבְדֶּ֗ךָ אַֽל־יִמְשְׁלוּ־בִ֣י אָ֣ז אֵיתָ֑ם וְ֝נִקֵּ֗יתִי מִפֶּ֥שַֽׁע רָֽב׃ 13
Keep back Thy servant also from presumptuous sins, that they may not have dominion over me; then shall I be faultless, and I shall be clear from great transgression.
יִֽהְי֥וּ לְרָצֹ֨ון ׀ אִמְרֵי־פִ֡י וְהֶגְיֹ֣ון לִבִּ֣י לְפָנֶ֑יךָ יְ֝הוָ֗ה צוּרִ֥י וְגֹאֲלִֽי׃ 14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable before Thee, O LORD, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
