< תהילים 138 >
לְדָוִד ׀ אוֹדְךָ בְכׇל־לִבִּי נֶגֶד אֱלֹהִים אֲזַמְּרֶֽךָּ׃ | 1 |
Of David. I will give you praise with all my heart: I will make melody to you before the gods.
אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶה אֶל־הֵיכַל קׇדְשְׁךָ וְאוֹדֶה אֶת־שְׁמֶךָ עַל־חַסְדְּךָ וְעַל־אֲמִתֶּךָ כִּֽי־הִגְדַּלְתָּ עַל־כׇּל־שִׁמְךָ אִמְרָתֶֽךָ׃ | 2 |
I will give worship before your holy Temple, praising your name for your mercy and for your unchanging faith: for you have made your word greater than all your name.
בְּיוֹם קָרָֽאתִי וַֽתַּעֲנֵנִי תַּרְהִבֵנִי בְנַפְשִׁי עֹֽז׃ | 3 |
When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.
יוֹדוּךָ יְהֹוָה כׇּל־מַלְכֵי־אָרֶץ כִּי שָׁמְעוּ אִמְרֵי־פִֽיךָ׃ | 4 |
All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.
וְיָשִׁירוּ בְּדַרְכֵי יְהֹוָה כִּֽי־גָדוֹל כְּבוֹד יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 5 |
They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.
כִּי־רָם יְהֹוָה וְשָׁפָל יִרְאֶה וְגָבֹהַּ מִמֶּרְחָק יְיֵדָֽע׃ | 6 |
Though the Lord is high, he sees those who are low; and he has knowledge from far off of those who are lifted up.
אִם־אֵלֵךְ ׀ בְּקֶרֶב צָרָה תְּחַיֵּנִי עַל אַף אֹיְבַי תִּשְׁלַח יָדֶךָ וְתוֹשִׁיעֵנִי יְמִינֶֽךָ׃ | 7 |
Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation.
יְהֹוָה יִגְמֹר בַּעֲדִי יְהֹוָה חַסְדְּךָ לְעוֹלָם מַעֲשֵׂי יָדֶיךָ אַל־תֶּֽרֶף׃ | 8 |
The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.
