תהילים 143
| מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד יְהֹוָה ׀ שְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִי הַאֲזִינָה אֶל־תַּחֲנוּנַי בֶּאֱמֻנָֽתְךָ עֲנֵנִי בְּצִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃ | 1 |
A Psalm of David, when his son pursued him. O Lord, attend to my prayer: listen to my supplication in your truth; hear me in your righteousness.
| וְאַל־תָּבוֹא בְמִשְׁפָּט אֶת־עַבְדֶּךָ כִּי לֹֽא־יִצְדַּק לְפָנֶיךָ כׇל־חָֽי׃ | 2 |
And enter not into judgement with your servant, for in your sight shall no [man] living be justified.
| כִּי רָדַף אוֹיֵב ׀ נַפְשִׁי דִּכָּא לָאָרֶץ חַיָּתִי הוֹשִׁבַנִי בְמַחֲשַׁכִּים כְּמֵתֵי עוֹלָֽם׃ | 3 |
For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has brought my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in a dark [place], as those that have been long dead.
| וַתִּתְעַטֵּף עָלַי רוּחִי בְּתוֹכִי יִשְׁתּוֹמֵם לִבִּֽי׃ | 4 |
Therefore my spirit was grieved in me; my heart was troubled within me.
| זָכַרְתִּי יָמִים ׀ מִקֶּדֶם הָגִיתִי בְכׇל־פׇּעֳלֶךָ בְּֽמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֶיךָ אֲשׂוֹחֵֽחַ׃ | 5 |
I remembered the days of old; and I meditated on all your doings: [yes], I meditated on the works of your hands.
| פֵּרַשְׂתִּי יָדַי אֵלֶיךָ נַפְשִׁי ׀ כְּאֶרֶץ־עֲיֵפָה לְךָ סֶֽלָה׃ | 6 |
I spread forth my hands to you; my soul [thirsts] for you, as a dry land. (Pause)
| מַהֵר עֲנֵנִי ׀ יְהֹוָה כָּלְתָה רוּחִי אַל־תַּסְתֵּר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי וְנִמְשַׁלְתִּי עִם־יֹרְדֵי בֽוֹר׃ | 7 |
Hear me speedily, O Lord; my spirit has failed; turn not away your face from me, else I shall be like to them that go down to the pit.
| הַשְׁמִיעֵנִי בַבֹּקֶר ׀ חַסְדֶּךָ כִּֽי־בְךָ בָטָחְתִּי הוֹדִיעֵנִי דֶּֽרֶךְ־זוּ אֵלֵךְ כִּי־אֵלֶיךָ נָשָׂאתִי נַפְשִֽׁי׃ | 8 |
Cause me to hear your mercy in the morning; for I have hoped in you; make known to me, O Lord, the way wherein I should walk; for I have lifted up my soul to you.
| הַצִּילֵנִי מֵאֹיְבַי ׀ יְהֹוָה אֵלֶיךָ כִסִּֽתִי׃ | 9 |
Deliver me from mine enemies, O Lord; for I have fled to you for refuge.
| לַמְּדֵנִי ׀ לַעֲשׂוֹת רְצוֹנֶךָ כִּֽי־אַתָּה אֱלוֹהָי רוּחֲךָ טוֹבָה תַּנְחֵנִי בְּאֶרֶץ מִישֽׁוֹר׃ | 10 |
Teach me to do your will; for you are my God; your good Spirit shall guide me in the straight [way].
| לְמַעַן־שִׁמְךָ יְהֹוָה תְּחַיֵּנִי בְּצִדְקָתְךָ ׀ תּוֹצִיא מִצָּרָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃ | 11 |
You shall quicken me, O Lord, for your name's sake; in your righteousness you shall bring my soul out of affliction.
| וּֽבְחַסְדְּךָ תַּצְמִית אֹיְבָי וְֽהַאֲבַדְתָּ כׇּל־צֹרְרֵי נַפְשִׁי כִּי אֲנִי עַבְדֶּֽךָ׃ | 12 |
And in your mercy you will destroy mine enemies, and will destroy all those that afflict my soul; for I am your servant.
