< תהילים 61 >
לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ עַֽל־נְגִינַת לְדָוִֽד׃ שִׁמְעָה אֱלֹהִים רִנָּתִי הַקְשִׁיבָה תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃ | 1 |
Sh'ma ·Hear obey· my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.
מִקְצֵה הָאָרֶץ ׀ אֵלֶיךָ אֶקְרָא בַּעֲטֹף לִבִּי בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵֽנִי׃ | 2 |
From the end of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
כִּֽי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵֽב׃ | 3 |
For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
אָגוּרָה בְאׇהׇלְךָ עוֹלָמִים אֶחֱסֶה בְסֵתֶר כְּנָפֶיךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ | 4 |
I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה אֱלֹהִים שָׁמַעְתָּ לִנְדָרָי נָתַתָּ יְרֻשַּׁת יִרְאֵי שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ | 5 |
For you, God, have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
יָמִים עַל־יְמֵי־מֶלֶךְ תּוֹסִיף שְׁנוֹתָיו כְּמוֹ־דֹר וָדֹֽר׃ | 6 |
You will prolong the king’s life; his years shall be for generations.
יֵשֵׁב עוֹלָם לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהִים חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת מַן יִנְצְרֻֽהוּ׃ | 7 |
He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your chesed ·loving-kindness· and truth, that they may preserve him.
כֵּן אֲזַמְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לָעַד לְֽשַׁלְּמִי נְדָרַי יוֹם ׀ יֽוֹם׃ | 8 |
So I will sing zahmar ·musical praise· to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
