< תהילים 104 >
בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָה יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהַי גָּדַלְתָּ מְּאֹד הוֹד וְהָדָר לָבָֽשְׁתָּ׃ | 1 |
Bless Jehovah, O my soul. O Jehovah my God, thou are very great. Thou are clothed with honor and majesty,
עֹֽטֶה־אוֹר כַּשַּׂלְמָה נוֹטֶה שָׁמַיִם כַּיְרִיעָֽה׃ | 2 |
who covers thyself with light as with a garment, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,
הַמְקָרֶה בַמַּיִם עֲֽלִיּוֹתָיו הַשָּׂם־עָבִים רְכוּבוֹ הַֽמְהַלֵּךְ עַל־כַּנְפֵי־רֽוּחַ׃ | 3 |
who lays the beams of his chambers in the waters, who makes the clouds his chariot, who walks upon the wings of the wind,
עֹשֶׂה מַלְאָכָיו רוּחוֹת מְשָׁרְתָיו אֵשׁ לֹהֵֽט׃ | 4 |
who makes his agents spirits, his ministers a flame of fire,
יָֽסַד־אֶרֶץ עַל־מְכוֹנֶיהָ בַּל־תִּמּוֹט עוֹלָם וָעֶֽד׃ | 5 |
who laid the foundations of the earth that it should not be moved forever.
תְּהוֹם כַּלְּבוּשׁ כִּסִּיתוֹ עַל־הָרִים יַעַמְדוּ מָֽיִם׃ | 6 |
Thou covered it with the deep as with a vesture. The waters stood above the mountains.
מִן־גַּעֲרָתְךָ יְנוּסוּן מִן־קוֹל רַֽעַמְךָ יֵחָפֵזֽוּן׃ | 7 |
At thy rebuke they fled. At the voice of thy thunder they hastened away.
יַעֲלוּ הָרִים יֵרְדוּ בְקָעוֹת אֶל־מְקוֹם זֶה ׀ יָסַדְתָּ לָהֶֽם׃ | 8 |
The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place which thou had founded for them.
גְּֽבוּל־שַׂמְתָּ בַּל־יַעֲבֹרוּן בַּל־יְשֻׁבוּן לְכַסּוֹת הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 9 |
Thou have set a bound that they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
הַֽמְשַׁלֵּחַ מַעְיָנִים בַּנְּחָלִים בֵּין הָרִים יְהַלֵּכֽוּן׃ | 10 |
He sends forth springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.
יַשְׁקוּ כׇּל־חַיְתוֹ שָׂדָי יִשְׁבְּרוּ פְרָאִים צְמָאָֽם׃ | 11 |
They give drink to every beast of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
עֲלֵיהֶם עוֹף־הַשָּׁמַיִם יִשְׁכּוֹן מִבֵּין עֳפָאיִם יִתְּנוּ־קֽוֹל׃ | 12 |
By them the birds of the heavens have their habitation. They sing among the branches.
מַשְׁקֶה הָרִים מֵעֲלִיּוֹתָיו מִפְּרִי מַעֲשֶׂיךָ תִּשְׂבַּע הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 13 |
He waters the mountains from his chambers. The earth is filled with the fruit of thy works.
מַצְמִיחַ חָצִיר ׀ לַבְּהֵמָה וְעֵשֶׂב לַעֲבֹדַת הָאָדָם לְהוֹצִיא לֶחֶם מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 14 |
He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herbage for the service of man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth,
וְיַיִן ׀ יְשַׂמַּח לְֽבַב־אֱנוֹשׁ לְהַצְהִיל פָּנִים מִשָּׁמֶן וְלֶחֶם לְֽבַב־אֱנוֹשׁ יִסְעָֽד׃ | 15 |
and wine that makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man's heart.
יִשְׂבְּעוּ עֲצֵי יְהֹוָה אַֽרְזֵי לְבָנוֹן אֲשֶׁר נָטָֽע׃ | 16 |
The trees of Jehovah are full, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted,
אֲשֶׁר־שָׁם צִפֳּרִים יְקַנֵּנוּ חֲסִידָה בְּרוֹשִׁים בֵּיתָֽהּ׃ | 17 |
where the birds make their nests. As for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
הָרִים הַגְּבֹהִים לַיְּעֵלִים סְלָעִים מַחְסֶה לַֽשְׁפַנִּֽים׃ | 18 |
The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
עָשָׂה יָרֵחַ לְמוֹעֲדִים שֶׁמֶשׁ יָדַע מְבוֹאֽוֹ׃ | 19 |
He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows his going down.
תָּֽשֶׁת־חֹשֶׁךְ וִיהִי לָיְלָה בּוֹ־תִרְמֹשׂ כׇּל־חַיְתוֹ־יָֽעַר׃ | 20 |
Thou make darkness, and it is night, during which all the beasts of the forest creep forth.
הַכְּפִירִים שֹׁאֲגִים לַטָּרֶף וּלְבַקֵּשׁ מֵאֵל אׇכְלָֽם׃ | 21 |
The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
תִּזְרַח הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ יֵאָסֵפוּן וְאֶל־מְעוֹנֹתָם יִרְבָּצֽוּן׃ | 22 |
The sun arises; they get away, and lie down in their dens.
יֵצֵא אָדָם לְפׇעֳלוֹ וְֽלַעֲבֹדָתוֹ עֲדֵי־עָֽרֶב׃ | 23 |
Man goes forth to his work and to his labor until the evening.
מָה־רַבּוּ מַעֲשֶׂיךָ ׀ יְֽהֹוָה כֻּלָּם בְּחׇכְמָה עָשִׂיתָ מָלְאָה הָאָרֶץ קִנְיָנֶֽךָ׃ | 24 |
O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom have thou made them all. The earth is full of thy riches.
זֶה ׀ הַיָּם גָּדוֹל וּרְחַב יָדָיִם שָֽׁם־רֶמֶשׂ וְאֵין מִסְפָּר חַיּוֹת קְטַנּוֹת עִם־גְּדֹלֽוֹת׃ | 25 |
Yonder is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable creeping things, both small and great beasts.
שָׁם אֳנִיּוֹת יְהַלֵּכוּן לִוְיָתָן זֶֽה־יָצַרְתָּ לְשַֽׂחֶק־בּֽוֹ׃ | 26 |
There go the ships. There is leviathan, whom thou have formed to play in it.
כֻּלָּם אֵלֶיךָ יְשַׂבֵּרוּן לָתֵת אׇכְלָם בְּעִתּֽוֹ׃ | 27 |
These all wait for thee, that thou may give them their food in due season.
תִּתֵּן לָהֶם יִלְקֹטוּן תִּפְתַּח יָדְךָ יִשְׂבְּעוּן טֽוֹב׃ | 28 |
Thou give to them, they gather. Thou open thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
תַּסְתִּיר פָּנֶיךָ יִֽבָּהֵלוּן תֹּסֵף רוּחָם יִגְוָעוּן וְֽאֶל־עֲפָרָם יְשׁוּבֽוּן׃ | 29 |
Thou hide thy face, they are troubled. Thou take away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
תְּשַׁלַּח רוּחֲךָ יִבָּרֵאוּן וּתְחַדֵּשׁ פְּנֵי אֲדָמָֽה׃ | 30 |
Thou send forth thy Spirit, they are created, and thou renew the face of the ground.
יְהִי כְבוֹד יְהֹוָה לְעוֹלָם יִשְׂמַח יְהֹוָה בְּמַעֲשָֽׂיו׃ | 31 |
Let the glory of Jehovah endure forever. Let Jehovah rejoice in his works,
הַמַּבִּיט לָאָרֶץ וַתִּרְעָד יִגַּע בֶּהָרִים וְֽיֶעֱשָֽׁנוּ׃ | 32 |
who looks on the earth, and it trembles. He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
אָשִׁירָה לַיהֹוָה בְּחַיָּי אֲזַמְּרָה לֵאלֹהַי בְּעוֹדִֽי׃ | 33 |
I will sing to Jehovah as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
יֶעֱרַב עָלָיו שִׂיחִי אָנֹכִי אֶשְׂמַח בַּיהֹוָֽה׃ | 34 |
Let thy meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Jehovah.
יִתַּמּוּ חַטָּאִים ׀ מִן־הָאָרֶץ וּרְשָׁעִים ׀ עוֹד אֵינָם בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָה הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ | 35 |
Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise ye Jehovah.
