< Psalms 5 >

1 For the Leader; upon the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
לַמְנַצֵּחַ אֶֽל־הַנְּחִילוֹת מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ אֲמָרַי הַאֲזִינָה ׀ יְהוָה בִּינָה הֲגִֽיגִי׃
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; for unto Thee do I pray.
הַקְשִׁיבָה ׀ לְקוֹל שַׁוְעִי מַלְכִּי וֵאלֹהָי כִּֽי־אֵלֶיךָ אֶתְפַּלָּֽל׃
3 O LORD, in the morning shalt Thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order my prayer unto Thee, and will look forward.
יְֽהוָה בֹּקֶר תִּשְׁמַע קוֹלִי בֹּקֶר אֶֽעֱרָךְ־לְךָ וַאֲצַפֶּֽה׃
4 For Thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with Thee.
כִּי ׀ לֹא אֵֽל־חָפֵץ רֶשַׁע ׀ אָתָּה לֹא יְגֻרְךָ רָֽע׃
5 The boasters shall not stand in Thy sight; Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
לֹֽא־יִתְיַצְּבוּ הֽוֹלְלִים לְנֶגֶד עֵינֶיךָ שָׂנֵאתָ כָּל־פֹּעֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
6 Thou destroyest them that speak falsehood; the LORD abhorreth the man of blood and of deceit.
תְּאַבֵּד דֹּבְרֵי כָזָב אִישׁ־דָּמִים וּמִרְמָה יְתָעֵב ׀ יְהוָֽה׃
7 But as for me, in the abundance of Thy lovingkindness will I come into Thy house; I will bow down toward Thy holy temple in the fear of Thee.
וַאֲנִי בְּרֹב חַסְדְּךָ אָבוֹא בֵיתֶךָ אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶה אֶל־הֽ͏ֵיכַל־קָדְשְׁךָ בְּיִרְאָתֶֽךָ׃
8 O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; make Thy way straight before my face.
יְהוָה ׀ נְחֵנִי בְצִדְקָתֶךָ לְמַעַן שׁוֹרְרָי הושר הַיְשַׁר לְפָנַי דַּרְכֶּֽךָ׃
9 For there is no sincerity in their mouth; their inward part is a yawning gulf, their throat is an open sepulchre; they make smooth their tongue.
כִּי אֵין בְּפִיהוּ נְכוֹנָה קִרְבָּם הַוּוֹת קֶֽבֶר־פָּתוּחַ גְּרוֹנָם לְשׁוֹנָם יַחֲלִֽיקוּן׃
10 Hold them guilty, O God, let them fall by their own counsels; cast them down in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against Thee.
הַֽאֲשִׁימֵם ׀ אֱ‍ֽלֹהִים יִפְּלוּ מִֽמֹּעֲצוֹתֵיהֶם בְּרֹב פִּשְׁעֵיהֶם הַדִּיחֵמוֹ כִּי־מָרוּ בָֽךְ׃
11 So shall all those that take refuge in Thee rejoice, they shall ever shout for joy, and Thou shalt shelter them; let them also that love Thy name exult in Thee.
וְיִשְׂמְחוּ כָל־חוֹסֵי בָךְ לְעוֹלָם יְרַנֵּנוּ וְתָסֵךְ עָלֵימוֹ וְֽיַעְלְצוּ בְךָ אֹהֲבֵי שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
12 For Thou dost bless the righteous; O LORD, Thou dost encompass him with favour as with a shield.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה תְּבָרֵךְ צַדִּיק יְהוָה כַּצִּנָּה רָצוֹן תַּעְטְרֶֽנּוּ׃
