< תהילים 138 >
לדוד אודך בכל-לבי נגד אלהים אזמרך | 1 |
By David. I will give you thanks with my whole heart. Before the gods, I will sing praises to you.
אשתחוה אל-היכל קדשך ואודה את-שמך-- על-חסדך ועל-אמתך כי-הגדלת על-כל-שמך אמרתך | 2 |
I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.
ביום קראתי ותענני תרהבני בנפשי עז | 3 |
In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.
יודוך יהוה כל-מלכי-ארץ כי שמעו אמרי-פיך | 4 |
All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, LORD, for they have heard the words of your mouth.
וישירו בדרכי יהוה כי-גדול כבוד יהוה | 5 |
Yes, they will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the LORD’s glory is great!
כי-רם יהוה ושפל יראה וגבה ממרחק יידע | 6 |
For though the LORD is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but he knows the proud from afar.
אם-אלך בקרב צרה-- תחיני על אף איבי תשלח ידך ותושיעני ימינך | 7 |
Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.
יהוה יגמר בעדי יהוה חסדך לעולם מעשי ידיך אל-תרף | 8 |
The LORD will fulfill that which concerns me. Your loving kindness, LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the works of your own hands.
