תהילים 27

1 לְדָוִד ׀ יְהֹוָה ׀ אוֹרִי וְיִשְׁעִי מִמִּי אִירָא יְהֹוָה מָעוֹז־חַיַּי מִמִּי אֶפְחָֽד׃

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2 בִּקְרֹב עָלַי ׀ מְרֵעִים לֶאֱכֹל אֶת־בְּשָׂרִי צָרַי וְאֹיְבַי לִי הֵמָּה כָשְׁלוּ וְנָפָֽלוּ׃

When the wicked, even my enemies and my foes, came on me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

3 אִם־תַּחֲנֶה עָלַי ׀ מַחֲנֶה לֹא־יִירָא לִבִּי אִם־תָּקוּם עָלַי מִלְחָמָה בְּזֹאת אֲנִי בוֹטֵֽחַ׃

Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

4 אַחַת ׀ שָׁאַלְתִּי מֵֽאֵת־יְהֹוָה אוֹתָהּ אֲבַקֵּשׁ שִׁבְתִּי בְּבֵית־יְהֹוָה כׇּל־יְמֵי חַיַּי לַחֲזוֹת בְּנֹעַם־יְהֹוָה וּלְבַקֵּר בְּהֵֽיכָלֽוֹ׃

One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.

5 כִּי יִצְפְּנֵנִי ׀ בְּסֻכֹּה בְּיוֹם רָעָה יַסְתִּרֵנִי בְּסֵתֶר אׇהֳלוֹ בְּצוּר יְרוֹמְמֵֽנִי׃

For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up on a rock.

6 וְעַתָּה יָרוּם רֹאשִׁי עַל אֹיְבַי סְֽבִיבוֹתַי וְאֶזְבְּחָה בְאׇהֳלוֹ זִבְחֵי תְרוּעָה אָשִׁירָה וַאֲזַמְּרָה לַֽיהֹוָֽה׃

And now shall my head be lifted up above my enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

7 שְׁמַע־יְהֹוָה קוֹלִי אֶקְרָא וְחׇנֵּנִי וַֽעֲנֵֽנִי׃

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also on me, and answer me.

8 לְךָ ׀ אָמַר לִבִּי בַּקְּשׁוּ פָנָי אֶת־פָּנֶיךָ יְהֹוָה אֲבַקֵּֽשׁ׃

When you said, Seek you my face; my heart said to you, Your face, LORD, will I seek.

9 אַל־תַּסְתֵּר פָּנֶיךָ ׀ מִמֶּנִּי אַל תַּט־בְּאַף עַבְדֶּךָ עֶזְרָתִי הָיִיתָ אַֽל־תִּטְּשֵׁנִי וְאַל־תַּעַזְבֵנִי אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעִֽי׃

Hide not your face far from me; put not your servant away in anger: you have been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

10 כִּֽי־אָבִי וְאִמִּי עֲזָבוּנִי וַֽיהֹוָה יַאַסְפֵֽנִי׃

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

11 הוֹרֵנִי יְהֹוָה דַּרְכֶּךָ וּנְחֵנִי בְּאֹרַח מִישׁוֹר לְמַעַן שֽׁוֹרְרָֽי׃

Teach me your way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies.

12 אַֽל־תִּתְּנֵנִי בְּנֶפֶשׁ צָרָי כִּי קָמוּ־בִי עֵדֵי־שֶׁקֶר וִיפֵחַ חָמָֽס׃

Deliver me not over to the will of my enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

13 לׅוּׅלֵׅאׅ הֶאֱמַנְתִּי לִרְאוֹת בְּֽטוּב־יְהֹוָה בְּאֶרֶץ חַיִּֽים׃

I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

14 קַוֵּה אֶל־יְהֹוָה חֲזַק וְיַאֲמֵץ לִבֶּךָ וְקַוֵּה אֶל־יְהֹוָֽה׃

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
