< תהילים 34 >
לְדָוִד בְּשַׁנּוֹתוֹ אֶת־טַעְמוֹ לִפְנֵי אֲבִימֶלֶךְ וַיְגָרְשֵׁהוּ וַיֵּלַֽךְ׃ אֲבָרְכָה אֶת־יְהֹוָה בְּכׇל־עֵת תָּמִיד תְּֽהִלָּתוֹ בְּפִֽי׃ | 1 |
“By David, when he disguised his reason before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.” I will bless the Lord at all times: continually shall his praise be in my mouth.
בַּיהֹוָה תִּתְהַלֵּל נַפְשִׁי יִשְׁמְעוּ עֲנָוִים וְיִשְׂמָֽחוּ׃ | 2 |
My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear it, and be rejoiced.
גַּדְּלוּ לַיהֹוָה אִתִּי וּנְרוֹמְמָה שְׁמוֹ יַחְדָּֽו׃ | 3 |
Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
דָּרַשְׁתִּי אֶת־יְהֹוָה וְעָנָנִי וּמִכׇּל־מְגוּרוֹתַי הִצִּילָֽנִי׃ | 4 |
I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and from all that I dreaded did he deliver me.
הִבִּיטוּ אֵלָיו וְנָהָרוּ וּפְנֵיהֶם אַל־יֶחְפָּֽרוּ׃ | 5 |
They [who] looked unto him, were indeed enlightened, and their faces were not put to the blush.
זֶה עָנִי קָרָא וַיהֹוָה שָׁמֵעַ וּמִכׇּל־צָרוֹתָיו הוֹשִׁיעֽוֹ׃ | 6 |
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and out of all his distresses did he save him.
חֹנֶה מַלְאַךְ־יְהֹוָה סָבִיב לִירֵאָיו וַֽיְחַלְּצֵֽם׃ | 7 |
The angel of the Lord encampeth round about those who fear him, and delivereth them.
טַעֲמוּ וּרְאוּ כִּֽי־טוֹב יְהֹוָה אַֽשְׁרֵי הַגֶּבֶר יֶחֱסֶה־בּֽוֹ׃ | 8 |
Experience and see that the Lord is good: happy is the man that trusteth in him.
יְראוּ אֶת־יְהֹוָה קְדֹשָׁיו כִּי־אֵין מַחְסוֹר לִירֵאָֽיו׃ | 9 |
Oh fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to those who fear him.
כְּפִירִים רָשׁוּ וְרָעֵבוּ וְדֹרְשֵׁי יְהֹוָה לֹא־יַחְסְרוּ כׇל־טֽוֹב׃ | 10 |
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; but those who seek the Lord shall not want any good.
לְֽכוּ־בָנִים שִׁמְעוּ־לִי יִֽרְאַת יְהֹוָה אֲלַמֶּדְכֶֽם׃ | 11 |
Come, ye children, hearken unto me: the fear of the Lord will I teach you.
מִֽי־הָאִישׁ הֶחָפֵץ חַיִּים אֹהֵב יָמִים לִרְאוֹת טֽוֹב׃ | 12 |
Who is the man that desireth life, loveth [many] days, that he may see happiness?
נְצֹר לְשׁוֹנְךָ מֵרָע וּשְׂפָתֶיךָ מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָֽה׃ | 13 |
Guard thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking deceit.
סוּר מֵרָע וַעֲשֵׂה־טוֹב בַּקֵּשׁ שָׁלוֹם וְרׇדְפֵֽהוּ׃ | 14 |
Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
עֵינֵי יְהֹוָה אֶל־צַדִּיקִים וְאׇזְנָיו אֶל־שַׁוְעָתָֽם׃ | 15 |
The eyes of the Lord are directed unto the righteous, and his ears unto their cry.
פְּנֵי יְהֹוָה בְּעֹשֵׂי רָע לְהַכְרִית מֵאֶרֶץ זִכְרָֽם׃ | 16 |
[But] the anger of the Lord is against those that do evil, to cut off from the earth their remembrance.
צָעֲקוּ וַיהֹוָה שָׁמֵעַ וּמִכׇּל־צָרוֹתָם הִצִּילָֽם׃ | 17 |
Those cry, and the Lord heareth, and from all their distresses he delivereth them.
קָרוֹב יְהֹוָה לְנִשְׁבְּרֵי־לֵב וְֽאֶת־דַּכְּאֵי־רוּחַ יוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ | 18 |
The Lord is nigh unto those that are broken-hearted: and he saveth those that are of a contrite spirit.
רַבּוֹת רָעוֹת צַדִּיק וּמִכֻּלָּם יַצִּילֶנּוּ יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 19 |
Many are the afflictions of the righteous; but out of them all the Lord ever delivereth him.
שֹׁמֵר כׇּל־עַצְמוֹתָיו אַחַת מֵהֵנָּה לֹא נִשְׁבָּֽרָה׃ | 20 |
He watcheth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
תְּמוֹתֵת רָשָׁע רָעָה וְשֹׂנְאֵי צַדִּיק יֶאְשָֽׁמוּ׃ | 21 |
The evil will slay the wicked: and they who hate the righteous shall incur guiltiness.
פֹּדֶה יְהֹוָה נֶפֶשׁ עֲבָדָיו וְלֹא יֶאְשְׁמוּ כׇּֽל־הַחֹסִים בּֽוֹ׃ | 22 |
The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and all that trust in him shall not incur guiltiness.
