< תהילים 88 >
שִׁיר מִזְמוֹר לִבְנֵי ־ קֹרַח לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־מָחֲלַת לְעַנּוֹת מַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵימָן הָאֶזְרָחִֽי׃ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵי יְשׁוּעָתִי יוֹם־צָעַקְתִּי בַלַּיְלָה נֶגְדֶּֽךָ׃ | 1 |
A canticle of a psalm for the sons of Core: unto the end, for Maheleth, to answer understanding of Eman the Ezrahite. O Lord, the God of my salvation: I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee.
תָּבוֹא לְפָנֶיךָ תְּפִלָּתִי הַטֵּה אׇזְנְךָ לְרִנָּתִֽי׃ | 2 |
Let my prayer come in before thee: incline thy ear to my petition.
כִּֽי־שָׂבְעָה בְרָעוֹת נַפְשִׁי וְחַיַּי לִשְׁאוֹל הִגִּֽיעוּ׃ (Sheol ) | 3 |
For my soul is filled with evils: and my life hath drawn nigh to hell. (Sheol )
נֶחְשַׁבְתִּי עִם־יוֹרְדֵי בוֹר הָיִיתִי כְּגֶבֶר אֵֽין־אֱיָֽל׃ | 4 |
I am counted among them that go down to the pit: I am become as a man without help,
בַּמֵּתִים חׇפְשִׁי כְּמוֹ חֲלָלִים ׀ שֹׁכְבֵי קֶבֶר אֲשֶׁר לֹא זְכַרְתָּם עוֹד וְהֵמָּה מִיָּדְךָ נִגְזָֽרוּ׃ | 5 |
Free among the dead. Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cast off from thy hand.
שַׁתַּנִי בְּבוֹר תַּחְתִּיּוֹת בְּמַחֲשַׁכִּים בִּמְצֹלֽוֹת׃ | 6 |
They have laid me in the lower pit: in the dark places, and in the shadow of death.
עָלַי סָמְכָה חֲמָתֶךָ וְכׇל־מִשְׁבָּרֶיךָ עִנִּיתָ סֶּֽלָה׃ | 7 |
Thy wrath is strong over me: and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.
הִרְחַקְתָּ מְיֻדָּעַי מִמֶּנִּי שַׁתַּנִי תוֹעֵבוֹת לָמוֹ כָּלֻא וְלֹא אֵצֵֽא׃ | 8 |
Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: they have set me an abomination to themselves. I was delivered up, and came not forth:
עֵינִי דָאֲבָה מִנִּי ־ עֹנִי קְרָאתִיךָ יְהֹוָה בְּכׇל־יוֹם שִׁטַּחְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ כַפָּֽי׃ | 9 |
My eyes languished through poverty. All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: I stretched out my hands to thee.
הֲלַמֵּתִים תַּעֲשֶׂה־פֶּלֶא אִם־רְפָאִים יָקוּמוּ ׀ יוֹדוּךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ | 10 |
Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?
הַיְסֻפַּר בַּקֶּבֶר חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמוּנָתְךָ בָּאֲבַדּֽוֹן׃ | 11 |
Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: and thy truth in destruction?
הֲיִוָּדַע בַּחֹשֶׁךְ פִּלְאֶךָ וְצִדְקָתְךָ בְּאֶרֶץ נְשִׁיָּֽה׃ | 12 |
Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?
וַאֲנִי ׀ אֵלֶיךָ יְהֹוָה שִׁוַּעְתִּי וּבַבֹּקֶר תְּֽפִלָּתִי תְקַדְּמֶֽךָּ׃ | 13 |
But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee.
לָמָה יְהֹוָה תִּזְנַח נַפְשִׁי תַּסְתִּיר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃ | 14 |
Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: why turnest thou away thy face from me?
עָנִי אֲנִי וְגֹוֵעַ מִנֹּעַר נָשָׂאתִי אֵמֶיךָ אָפֽוּנָה׃ | 15 |
I am poor, and in labours from my youth: and being exalted have been humbled and troubled.
עָלַי עָבְרוּ חֲרוֹנֶיךָ בִּעוּתֶיךָ צִמְּתוּתֻֽנִי׃ | 16 |
Thy wrath hath come upon me: and thy terrors have troubled me.
סַבּוּנִי כַמַּיִם כׇּל־הַיּוֹם הִקִּיפוּ עָלַי יָֽחַד׃ | 17 |
They have come round about me like water all the day: they have compassed me about together.
הִרְחַקְתָּ מִמֶּנִּי אֹהֵב וָרֵעַ מְֽיֻדָּעַי מַחְשָֽׁךְ׃ | 18 |
Friend and neighbour thou hast put far from me: and my acquaintance, because of misery.
