< Psalms 5 >

1 For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my (meditation)
לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אֶֽל־הַנְּחִילֹ֗ות מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃ אֲמָרַ֖י הַאֲזִ֥ינָה ׀ יְהוָ֗ה בִּ֣ינָה הֲגִֽיגִי׃
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; For unto thee do I pray.
הַקְשִׁ֤יבָה ׀ לְקֹ֬ול שַׁוְעִ֗י מַלְכִּ֥י וֵאלֹהָ֑י כִּֽי־אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ אֶתְפַּלָּֽל׃
3 O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; In the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep watch.
יְֽהוָ֗ה בֹּ֖קֶר תִּשְׁמַ֣ע קֹולִ֑י בֹּ֥קֶר אֶֽעֱרָךְ־לְ֝ךָ֗ וַאֲצַפֶּֽה׃
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Evil shall not sojourn with thee.
כִּ֤י ׀ לֹ֤א אֵֽל־חָפֵ֘ץ רֶ֥שַׁע ׀ אָ֑תָּה לֹ֖א יְגֻרְךָ֣ רָֽע׃
5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
לֹֽא־יִתְיַצְּב֣וּ הֹֽ֭ולְלִים לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינֶ֑יךָ שָׂ֝נֵ֗אתָ כָּל־פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.
תְּאַבֵּד֮ דֹּבְרֵ֪י כָ֫זָ֥ב אִישׁ־דָּמִ֥ים וּמִרְמָ֗ה יְתָ֘עֵ֥ב ׀ יְהוָֽה׃
7 But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
וַאֲנִ֗י בְּרֹ֣ב חַ֭סְדְּךָ אָבֹ֣וא בֵיתֶ֑ךָ אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֥ה אֶל־הֽ͏ֵיכַל־קָ֝דְשְׁךָ֗ בְּיִרְאָתֶֽךָ׃
8 Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face.
יְהוָ֤ה ׀ נְחֵ֬נִי בְצִדְקָתֶ֗ךָ לְמַ֥עַן שֹׁורְרָ֑י הֹושַׁר (הַיְשַׁ֖ר) לְפָנַ֣י דַּרְכֶּֽךָ׃
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is very wickedness; Their throat is an open sepulchre; They flatter with their tongue.
כִּ֤י אֵ֪ין בְּפִ֡יהוּ נְכֹונָה֮ קִרְבָּ֪ם הַ֫וֹּ֥ות קֶֽבֶר־פָּת֥וּחַ גְּרֹונָ֑ם לְ֝שֹׁונָ֗ם יַחֲלִֽיקוּן׃
10 Hold them guilty, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee.
הַֽאֲשִׁימֵ֨ם ׀ אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים יִפְּלוּ֮ מִֽמֹּעֲצֹ֪ותֵ֫יהֶ֥ם בְּרֹ֣ב פִּ֭שְׁעֵיהֶם הַדִּיחֵ֑מֹו כִּי־מָ֥רוּ בָֽךְ׃
11 But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice, Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
וְיִשְׂמְח֨וּ כָל־חֹ֪וסֵי בָ֡ךְ לְעֹולָ֣ם יְ֭רַנֵּנוּ וְתָסֵ֣ךְ עָלֵ֑ימֹו וְֽיַעְלְצ֥וּ בְ֝ךָ֗ אֹהֲבֵ֥י שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
12 For thou wilt bless the righteous; O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה֮ תְּבָרֵ֪ךְ צַ֫דִּ֥יק יְהוָ֑ה כַּ֝צִּנָּ֗ה רָצֹ֥ון תַּעְטְרֶֽנּוּ׃
