< תְהִלִּים 36 >
לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ ׀ לְעֶֽבֶד־יְהוָ֬ה לְדָוִֽד׃ נְאֻֽם־פֶּ֣שַׁע לָ֭רָשָׁע בְּקֶ֣רֶב לִבִּ֑י אֵֽין־פַּ֥חַד אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָֽיו׃ | 1 |
To the chief music-maker. Of the servant of the Lord. Of David. The sin of the evil-doer says in his heart, There is no fear of the Lord before his eyes.
כִּֽי־הֶחֱלִ֣יק אֵלָ֣יו בְּעֵינָ֑יו לִמְצֹ֖א עֲוֹנֹ֣ו לִשְׂנֹֽא׃ | 2 |
For he takes comfort in the thought that his sin will not be uncovered and hated.
דִּבְרֵי־פִ֭יו אָ֣וֶן וּמִרְמָ֑ה חָדַ֖ל לְהַשְׂכִּ֣יל לְהֵיטִֽיב׃ | 3 |
In the words of his mouth are evil and deceit; he has given up being wise and doing good.
אָ֤וֶן ׀ יַחְשֹׁ֗ב עַֽל־מִשְׁכָּ֫בֹ֥ו יִ֭תְיַצֵּב עַל־דֶּ֣רֶךְ לֹא־טֹ֑וב רָ֝֗ע לֹ֣א יִמְאָֽס׃ | 4 |
He gives thought to evil on his bed; he takes a way which is not good; he is not a hater of evil.
יְ֭הוָה בְּהַשָּׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ אֱ֝מֽוּנָתְךָ֗ עַד־שְׁחָקִֽים׃ | 5 |
Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens, and your strong purpose is as high as the clouds.
צִדְקָֽתְךָ֨ ׀ כְּֽהַרְרֵי־אֵ֗ל מִ֭שְׁפָּטֶךָ תְּהֹ֣ום רַבָּ֑ה אָ֤דָֽם־וּבְהֵמָ֖ה תֹושִׁ֣יעַ יְהוָֽה׃ | 6 |
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judging is like the great deep; O Lord, you give life to man and beast.
מַה־יָּקָ֥ר חַסְדְּךָ֗ אֱלֹ֫הִ֥ים וּבְנֵ֥י אָדָ֑ם בְּצֵ֥ל כְּ֝נָפֶ֗יךָ יֶחֱסָיֽוּן׃ | 7 |
How good is your loving mercy, O God! the children of men take cover under the shade of your wings.
יִ֭רְוְיֻן מִדֶּ֣שֶׁן בֵּיתֶ֑ךָ וְנַ֖חַל עֲדָנֶ֣יךָ תַשְׁקֵֽם׃ | 8 |
The delights of your house will be showered on them; you will give them drink from the river of your pleasures.
כִּֽי־עִ֭מְּךָ מְקֹ֣ור חַיִּ֑ים בְּ֝אֹורְךָ֗ נִרְאֶה־אֹֽור׃ | 9 |
For with you is the fountain of life: in your light we will see light.
מְשֹׁ֣ךְ חַ֭סְדְּךָ לְיֹדְעֶ֑יךָ וְ֝צִדְקָֽתְךָ֗ לְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ | 10 |
O let there be no end to your loving mercy to those who have knowledge of you, or of your righteousness to the upright in heart.
אַל־תְּ֭בֹואֵנִי רֶ֣גֶל גַּאֲוָ֑ה וְיַד־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים אַל־תְּנִדֵֽנִי׃ | 11 |
Let not the foot of pride come against me, or the hand of the evil-doers put me out of my place.
שָׁ֣ם נָ֭פְלוּ פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן דֹּ֝ח֗וּ וְלֹא־יָ֥כְלוּ קֽוּם׃ | 12 |
There the workers of evil have come down: they have been made low, and will not be lifted up.
