< תהילים 36 >

לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ לְעֶבֶד־יְהֹוָה לְדָוִֽד׃ נְאֻֽם־פֶּשַׁע לָרָשָׁע בְּקֶרֶב לִבִּי אֵֽין־פַּחַד אֱלֹהִים לְנֶגֶד עֵינָֽיו׃ 1
For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of Yahweh. A revelation is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
כִּֽי־הֶחֱלִיק אֵלָיו בְּעֵינָיו לִמְצֹא עֲוֺנוֹ לִשְׂנֹֽא׃ 2
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.
דִּבְרֵי־פִיו אָוֶן וּמִרְמָה חָדַל לְהַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵיטִֽיב׃ 3
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
אָוֶן ׀ יַחְשֹׁב עַֽל־מִשְׁכָּבוֹ יִתְיַצֵּב עַל־דֶּרֶךְ לֹא־טוֹב רָע לֹא יִמְאָֽס׃ 4
He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil.
יְהֹוָה בְּהַשָּׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמוּנָתְךָ עַד־שְׁחָקִֽים׃ 5
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
צִדְקָתְךָ ׀ כְּֽהַרְרֵי־אֵל מִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ תְּהוֹם רַבָּה אָדָֽם וּבְהֵמָה תוֹשִׁיעַ יְהֹוָֽה׃ 6
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
מַה־יָּקָר חַסְדְּךָ אֱלֹהִים וּבְנֵי אָדָם בְּצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ יֶחֱסָיֽוּן׃ 7
How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
יִרְוְיֻן מִדֶּשֶׁן בֵּיתֶךָ וְנַחַל עֲדָנֶיךָ תַשְׁקֵֽם׃ 8
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
כִּֽי־עִמְּךָ מְקוֹר חַיִּים בְּאוֹרְךָ נִרְאֶה־אֽוֹר׃ 9
For with you is the spring of life. In your light we will see light.
מְשֹׁךְ חַסְדְּךָ לְיֹדְעֶיךָ וְצִדְקָֽתְךָ לְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ 10
Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
אַל־תְּבוֹאֵנִי רֶגֶל גַּאֲוָה וְיַד־רְשָׁעִים אַל־תְּנִדֵֽנִי׃ 11
Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
שָׁם נָפְלוּ פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן דֹּחוּ וְלֹא־יָכְלוּ קֽוּם׃ 12
There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
