Psalms 94
1 O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, show thyself.
| אֵל־נְקָמוֹת יְהֹוָה אֵל נְקָמוֹת הוֹפִֽיעַ׃ |
2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
| הִנָּשֵׂא שֹׁפֵט הָאָרֶץ הָשֵׁב גְּמוּל עַל־גֵּאִֽים׃ |
3 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
| עַד־מָתַי רְשָׁעִים ׀ יְהֹוָה עַד־מָתַי רְשָׁעִים יַעֲלֹֽזוּ׃ |
4 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
| יַבִּיעוּ יְדַבְּרוּ עָתָק יִתְאַמְּרוּ כׇּל־פֹּעֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ |
5 They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thy heritage.
| עַמְּךָ יְהֹוָה יְדַכְּאוּ וְֽנַחֲלָתְךָ יְעַנּֽוּ׃ |
6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
| אַלְמָנָה וְגֵר יַהֲרֹגוּ וִיתוֹמִים יְרַצֵּֽחוּ׃ |
7 Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
| וַיֹּאמְרוּ לֹא יִרְאֶה־יָּהּ וְלֹא־יָבִין אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹֽב׃ |
8 Understand, ye stupid among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
| בִּינוּ בֹּעֲרִים בָּעָם וּכְסִילִים מָתַי תַּשְׂכִּֽילוּ׃ |
9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
| הֲנֹטַֽע אֹזֶן הֲלֹא יִשְׁמָע אִֽם־יֹצֵֽר עַיִן הֲלֹא יַבִּֽיט׃ |
10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall he not correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall he not know?
| הֲיֹסֵר גּוֹיִם הֲלֹא יוֹכִיחַ הַֽמְלַמֵּד אָדָם דָּֽעַת׃ |
11 The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
| יְֽהֹוָה יֹדֵעַ מַחְשְׁבוֹת אָדָם כִּי־הֵמָּה הָֽבֶל׃ |
12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
| אַשְׁרֵי ׀ הַגֶּבֶר אֲשֶׁר־תְּיַסְּרֶנּוּ יָּהּ וּֽמִתּוֹרָתְךָ תְלַמְּדֶֽנּוּ׃ |
13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
| לְהַשְׁקִיט לוֹ מִימֵי רָע עַד יִכָּרֶה לָרָשָׁע שָֽׁחַת׃ |
14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
| כִּי ׀ לֹא־יִטֹּשׁ יְהֹוָה עַמּוֹ וְנַחֲלָתוֹ לֹא יַעֲזֹֽב׃ |
15 But judgment shall return to righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
| כִּֽי־עַד־צֶדֶק יָשׁוּב מִשְׁפָּט וְאַחֲרָיו כׇּל־יִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ |
16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
| מִֽי־יָקוּם לִי עִם־מְרֵעִים מִי־יִתְיַצֵּב לִי עִם־פֹּעֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ |
17 Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
| לוּלֵי יְהֹוָה עֶזְרָתָה לִּי כִּמְעַט ׀ שָׁכְנָה דוּמָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃ |
18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
| אִם־אָמַרְתִּי מָטָה רַגְלִי חַסְדְּךָ יְהֹוָה יִסְעָדֵֽנִי׃ |
19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
| בְּרֹב שַׂרְעַפַּי בְּקִרְבִּי תַּנְחוּמֶיךָ יְֽשַׁעַשְׁעוּ נַפְשִֽׁי׃ |
20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
| הַֽיְחׇבְרְךָ כִּסֵּא הַוּוֹת יֹצֵר עָמָל עֲלֵי־חֹֽק׃ |
21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
| יָגוֹדּוּ עַל־נֶפֶשׁ צַדִּיק וְדָם נָקִי יַרְשִֽׁיעוּ׃ |
22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
| וַיְהִי יְהֹוָה לִי לְמִשְׂגָּב וֵאלֹהַי לְצוּר מַחְסִֽי׃ |
23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.
| וַיָּשֶׁב עֲלֵיהֶם ׀ אֶת־אוֹנָם וּבְרָעָתָם יַצְמִיתֵם יַצְמִיתֵם יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃ |
