< תהילים 109 >
לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר אֱלֹהֵי תְהִלָּתִי אַֽל־תֶּחֱרַֽשׁ׃ | 1 |
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. God of my praise, don’t remain silent,
כִּי פִי רָשָׁע וּֽפִי־מִרְמָה עָלַי פָּתָחוּ דִּבְּרוּ אִתִּי לְשׁוֹן שָֽׁקֶר׃ | 2 |
for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.
וְדִבְרֵי שִׂנְאָה סְבָבוּנִי וַיִּֽלָּחֲמוּנִי חִנָּֽם׃ | 3 |
They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
תַּֽחַת־אַהֲבָתִי יִשְׂטְנוּנִי וַאֲנִי תְפִלָּֽה׃ | 4 |
In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.
וַיָּשִׂימוּ עָלַי רָעָה תַּחַת טוֹבָה וְשִׂנְאָה תַּחַת אַהֲבָתִֽי׃ | 5 |
They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
הַפְקֵד עָלָיו רָשָׁע וְשָׂטָן יַעֲמֹד עַל־יְמִינֽוֹ׃ | 6 |
Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.
בְּהִשָּׁפְטוֹ יֵצֵא רָשָׁע וּתְפִלָּתוֹ תִּֽהְיֶה לַחֲטָאָֽה׃ | 7 |
When he is judged, let him come out guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.
יִֽהְיוּ־יָמָיו מְעַטִּים פְּקֻדָּתוֹ יִקַּח אַחֵֽר׃ | 8 |
Let his days be few. Let another take his office.
יִֽהְיוּ־בָנָיו יְתוֹמִים וְאִשְׁתּוֹ אַלְמָנָֽה׃ | 9 |
Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
וְנוֹעַ יָנוּעוּ בָנָיו וְשִׁאֵלוּ וְדָרְשׁוּ מֵחׇרְבֽוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃ | 10 |
Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.
יְנַקֵּשׁ נוֹשֶׁה לְכׇל־אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ וְיָבֹזּוּ זָרִים יְגִיעֽוֹ׃ | 11 |
Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labour.
אַל־יְהִי־לוֹ מֹשֵׁךְ חָסֶד וְֽאַל־יְהִי חוֹנֵן לִֽיתוֹמָֽיו׃ | 12 |
Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.
יְהִֽי־אַחֲרִיתוֹ לְהַכְרִית בְּדוֹר אַחֵר יִמַּח שְׁמָֽם׃ | 13 |
Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.
יִזָּכֵר ׀ עֲוֺן אֲבֹתָיו אֶל־יְהֹוָה וְחַטַּאת אִמּוֹ אַל־תִּמָּֽח׃ | 14 |
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the LORD. Don’t let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
יִהְיוּ נֶגֶד־יְהֹוָה תָּמִיד וְיַכְרֵת מֵאֶרֶץ זִכְרָֽם׃ | 15 |
Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;
יַעַן אֲשֶׁר ׀ לֹא זָכַר עֲשׂוֹת חָסֶד וַיִּרְדֹּף אִישׁ־עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן וְנִכְאֵה לֵבָב לְמוֹתֵֽת׃ | 16 |
because he didn’t remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
וַיֶּאֱהַב קְלָלָה וַתְּבוֹאֵהוּ וְֽלֹא־חָפֵץ בִּבְרָכָה וַתִּרְחַק מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃ | 17 |
Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He didn’t delight in blessing, and it was far from him.
וַיִּלְבַּשׁ קְלָלָה כְּמַדּוֹ וַתָּבֹא כַמַּיִם בְּקִרְבּוֹ וְכַשֶּׁמֶן בְּעַצְמוֹתָֽיו׃ | 18 |
He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.
תְּהִי־לוֹ כְּבֶגֶד יַעְטֶה וּלְמֵזַח תָּמִיד יַחְגְּרֶֽהָ׃ | 19 |
Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.
זֹאת פְּעֻלַּת שֹׂטְנַי מֵאֵת יְהֹוָה וְהַדֹּבְרִים רָע עַל־נַפְשִֽׁי׃ | 20 |
This is the reward of my adversaries from the LORD, of those who speak evil against my soul.
וְאַתָּה ׀ יֱהֹוִה אֲדֹנָי עֲֽשֵׂה־אִתִּי לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ כִּי־טוֹב חַסְדְּךָ הַצִּילֵֽנִי׃ | 21 |
But deal with me, GOD the Lord, for your name’s sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
כִּי־עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן אָנֹכִי וְלִבִּי חָלַל בְּקִרְבִּֽי׃ | 22 |
for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.
כְּצֵל־כִּנְטוֹתוֹ נֶהֱלָכְתִּי נִנְעַרְתִּי כָּאַרְבֶּֽה׃ | 23 |
I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.
בִּרְכַּי כָּשְׁלוּ מִצּוֹם וּבְשָׂרִי כָּחַשׁ מִשָּֽׁמֶן׃ | 24 |
My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.
וַאֲנִי ׀ הָיִיתִי חֶרְפָּה לָהֶם יִרְאוּנִי יְנִיעוּן רֹאשָֽׁם׃ | 25 |
I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.
עׇזְרֵנִי יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהָי הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי כְחַסְדֶּֽךָ׃ | 26 |
Help me, LORD, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;
וְֽיֵדְעוּ כִּי־יָדְךָ זֹּאת אַתָּה יְהֹוָה עֲשִׂיתָֽהּ׃ | 27 |
that they may know that this is your hand; that you, LORD, have done it.
יְקַֽלְלוּ־הֵמָּה וְאַתָּה תְבָרֵךְ קָמוּ ׀ וַיֵּבֹשׁוּ וְֽעַבְדְּךָ יִשְׂמָֽח׃ | 28 |
They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.
יִלְבְּשׁוּ שׂוֹטְנַי כְּלִמָּה וְיַעֲטוּ כַמְעִיל בׇּשְׁתָּֽם׃ | 29 |
Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonour. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
אוֹדֶה יְהֹוָה מְאֹד בְּפִי וּבְתוֹךְ רַבִּים אֲהַלְלֶֽנּוּ׃ | 30 |
I will give great thanks to the LORD with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him amongst the multitude.
כִּֽי־יַעֲמֹד לִימִין אֶבְיוֹן לְהוֹשִׁיעַ מִשֹּׁפְטֵי נַפְשֽׁוֹ׃ | 31 |
For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.
