< תְהִלִּים 7 >
שִׁגָּיֹ֗ון לְדָ֫וִ֥ד אֲשֶׁר־שָׁ֥ר לַיהוָ֑ה עַל־דִּבְרֵי־כ֝֗וּשׁ בֶּן־יְמִינִֽי׃ יְהוָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהַי בְּךָ֣ חָסִ֑יתִי הֹושִׁיעֵ֥נִי מִכָּל־רֹ֝דְפַ֗י וְהַצִּילֵֽנִי׃ | 1 |
The psalm of David which he sung to the Lord for the words of Chusi the son of Jemini. O Lord my God, in thee have I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.
פֶּן־יִטְרֹ֣ף כְּאַרְיֵ֣ה נַפְשִׁ֑י פֹּ֝רֵ֗ק וְאֵ֣ין מַצִּֽיל׃ | 2 |
Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save.
יְהוָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהַי אִם־עָשִׂ֣יתִי זֹ֑את אִֽם־יֶשׁ־עָ֥וֶל בְּכַפָּֽי׃ | 3 |
O Lord my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands:
אִם־גָּ֭מַלְתִּי שֹֽׁולְמִ֥י רָ֑ע וָאֲחַלְּצָ֖ה צֹורְרִ֣י רֵיקָֽם׃ | 4 |
If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies.
יִֽרַדֹּ֥ף אֹויֵ֨ב ׀ נַפְשִׁ֡י וְיַשֵּׂ֗ג וְיִרְמֹ֣ס לָאָ֣רֶץ חַיָּ֑י וּכְבֹודִ֓י ׀ לֶעָפָ֖ר יַשְׁכֵּ֣ן סֶֽלָה׃ | 5 |
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust.
ק֘וּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֨ה ׀ בְּאַפֶּ֗ךָ הִ֭נָּשֵׂא בְּעַבְרֹ֣ות צֹורְרָ֑י וְע֥וּרָה אֵ֝לַ֗י מִשְׁפָּ֥ט צִוִּֽיתָ׃ | 6 |
Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded:
וַעֲדַ֣ת לְ֭אֻמִּים תְּסֹובְבֶ֑ךָּ וְ֝עָלֶ֗יהָ לַמָּרֹ֥ום שֽׁוּבָה׃ | 7 |
And a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high.
יְהוָה֮ יָדִ֪ין עַ֫מִּ֥ים שָׁפְטֵ֥נִי יְהוָ֑ה כְּצִדְקִ֖י וּכְתֻמִּ֣י עָלָֽי׃ | 8 |
The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me.
יִגְמָר־נָ֬א רַ֨ע ׀ רְשָׁעִים֮ וּתְכֹונֵ֪ן צַ֫דִּ֥יק וּבֹחֵ֣ן לִ֭בֹּ֗ות וּכְלָיֹ֗ות אֱלֹהִ֥ים צַדּֽ͏ִיק׃ | 9 |
The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought: and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God.
מָֽגִנִּ֥י עַל־אֱלֹהִ֑ים מֹ֝ושִׁ֗יעַ יִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ | 10 |
Just is my help from the Lord: who saveth the upright of heart.
אֱ֭לֹהִים שֹׁופֵ֣ט צַדִּ֑יק וְ֝אֵ֗ל זֹעֵ֥ם בְּכָל־יֹֽום׃ | 11 |
God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day?
אִם־לֹ֣א יָ֭שׁוּב חַרְבֹּ֣ו יִלְטֹ֑ושׁ קַשְׁתֹּ֥ו דָ֝רַ֗ךְ וַֽיְכֹונְנֶֽהָ׃ | 12 |
Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword: he hath bent his bow and made it ready.
וְ֭לֹו הֵכִ֣ין כְּלֵי־מָ֑וֶת חִ֝צָּ֗יו לְֽדֹלְקִ֥ים יִפְעָֽל׃ | 13 |
And in it he hath prepared the instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn.
הִנֵּ֥ה יְחַבֶּל־אָ֑וֶן וְהָרָ֥ה עָ֝מָ֗ל וְיָ֣לַד שָֽׁקֶר׃ | 14 |
Behold he hath been in labour with injustice; he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity.
בֹּ֣ור כָּ֭רָֽה וַֽיַּחְפְּרֵ֑הוּ וַ֝יִּפֹּ֗ל בְּשַׁ֣חַת יִפְעָֽל׃ | 15 |
He hath opened a pit and dug it; and he is fallen into the hole he made.
יָשׁ֣וּב עֲמָלֹ֣ו בְרֹאשֹׁ֑ו וְעַ֥ל קָ֝דְקֳדֹ֗ו חֲמָסֹ֥ו יֵרֵֽד׃ | 16 |
His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall comedown upon his crown.
אֹודֶ֣ה יְהוָ֣ה כְּצִדְקֹ֑ו וַ֝אֲזַמְּרָ֗ה שֵֽׁם־יְהוָ֥ה עֶלְיֹֽון׃ | 17 |
I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
