< תהילים 56 >

לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ עַל־יוֹנַת אֵלֶם רְחֹקִים לְדָוִד מִכְתָּם בֶּאֱחֹז אוֹתוֹ פְלִשְׁתִּים בְּגַֽת׃ חׇנֵּנִי אֱלֹהִים כִּֽי־שְׁאָפַנִי אֱנוֹשׁ כׇּל־הַיּוֹם לֹחֵם יִלְחָצֵֽנִי׃ 1
For the Chief Musician; set to Jonath elem rehokim. [A Psalm] of David: Michtam: when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God; for man would swallow me up: all the day long he fighting oppresseth me.
שָׁאֲפוּ שׁוֹרְרַי כׇּל־הַיּוֹם כִּֽי־רַבִּים לֹחֲמִים לִי מָרֽוֹם׃ 2
Mine enemies would swallow me up all the day long: for they be many that fight proudly against me.
יוֹם אִירָא אֲנִי אֵלֶיךָ אֶבְטָֽח׃ 3
What time I am afraid, I will put my trust in thee.
בֵּאלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּל דְּבָרוֹ בֵּאלֹהִים בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה בָשָׂר לִֽי׃ 4
In God I will praise his word: in God have I put my trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?
כׇּל־הַיּוֹם דְּבָרַי יְעַצֵּבוּ עָלַי כׇּל־מַחְשְׁבֹתָם לָרָֽע׃ 5
All the day long they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
יָגוּרוּ ׀ (יצפינו) [יִצְפּוֹנוּ] הֵמָּה עֲקֵבַי יִשְׁמֹרוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר קִוּוּ נַפְשִֽׁי׃ 6
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, even as they have waited for my soul.
עַל־אָוֶן פַּלֶּט־לָמוֹ בְּאַף עַמִּים ׀ הוֹרֵד אֱלֹהִֽים׃ 7
Shall they escape by iniquity? in anger cast down the peoples, O God.
נֹדִי סָפַרְתָּה אָתָּה שִׂימָה דִמְעָתִי בְנֹאדֶךָ הֲלֹא בְּסִפְרָתֶֽךָ׃ 8
Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle; are they not in thy book?
אָז יָשׁוּבוּ אוֹיְבַי אָחוֹר בְּיוֹם אֶקְרָא זֶה־יָדַעְתִּי כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִים לִֽי׃ 9
Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call: this I know, that God is for me.
בֵּאלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָר בַּיהֹוָה אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָֽר׃ 10
In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word.
בֵּאלֹהִים בָּטַחְתִּי לֹּא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה אָדָם לִֽי׃ 11
In God have I put my trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?
עָלַי אֱלֹהִים נְדָרֶיךָ אֲשַׁלֵּם תּוֹדֹת לָֽךְ׃ 12
Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render thank offerings unto thee.
כִּי הִצַּלְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִמָּוֶת הֲלֹא רַגְלַי מִדֶּחִי לְהִֽתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהִים בְּאוֹר הַחַיִּֽים׃ 13
For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [hast thou] not [delivered] my feet from falling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
