< תְהִלִּים 10 >
לָמָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תַּעֲמֹ֣ד בְּרָחֹ֑וק תַּ֝עְלִ֗ים לְעִתֹּ֥ות בַּצָּרֽ͏ָה׃ | 1 |
Why standest Thou afar off, O LORD? Why hidest Thou Thyself in times of trouble?
בְּגַאֲוַ֣ת רָ֭שָׁע יִדְלַ֣ק עָנִ֑י יִתָּפְשׂ֓וּ ׀ בִּמְזִמֹּ֖ות ז֣וּ חָשָֽׁבוּ׃ | 2 |
Through the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued, they are taken in the devices that they have imagined.
כִּֽי־הִלֵּ֣ל רָ֭שָׁע עַל־תַּאֲוַ֣ת נַפְשֹׁ֑ו וּבֹצֵ֥עַ בֵּ֝רֵ֗ךְ נִ֘אֵ֥ץ ׀ יְהוָֽה׃ | 3 |
For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and the covetous vaunteth himself, though he contemn the LORD.
רָשָׁ֗ע כְּגֹ֣בַהּ אַ֭פֹּו בַּל־יִדְרֹ֑שׁ אֵ֥ין אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים כָּל־מְזִמֹּותָֽיו׃ | 4 |
The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, saith: 'He will not require'; all his thoughts are: 'There is no God.'
יָ֘חִ֤ילוּ דָרְכּו (דְרָכָ֨יו) ׀ בְּכָל־עֵ֗ת מָרֹ֣ום מִ֭שְׁפָּטֶיךָ מִנֶּגְדֹּ֑ו כָּל־צֹ֝ורְרָ֗יו יָפִ֥יחַ בָּהֶֽם׃ | 5 |
His ways prosper at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.
אָמַ֣ר בְּ֭לִבֹּו בַּל־אֶמֹּ֑וט לְדֹ֥ר וָ֝דֹ֗ר אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־בְרָֽע׃ | 6 |
He saith in his heart: 'I shall not be moved, I who to all generations shall not be in adversity.'
אָלָ֤ה פִּ֣יהוּ מָ֭לֵא וּמִרְמֹ֣ות וָתֹ֑ךְ תַּ֥חַת לְ֝שֹׁונֹ֗ו עָמָ֥ל וָאָֽוֶן׃ | 7 |
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
יֵשֵׁ֤ב ׀ בְּמַאְרַ֬ב חֲצֵרִ֗ים בַּֽ֭מִּסְתָּרִים יַהֲרֹ֣ג נָקִ֑י עֵ֝ינָ֗יו לְֽחֵלְכָ֥ה יִצְפֹּֽנוּ׃ | 8 |
He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in secret places doth he slay the innocent; his eyes are on the watch for the helpless.
יֶאֱרֹ֬ב בַּמִּסְתָּ֨ר ׀ כְּאַרְיֵ֬ה בְסֻכֹּ֗ה יֶ֭אֱרֹב לַחֲטֹ֣וף עָנִ֑י יַחְטֹ֥ף עָ֝נִ֗י בְּמָשְׁכֹ֥ו בְרִשְׁתֹּֽו׃ | 9 |
He lieth in wait in a secret place as a lion in his lair, he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him up in his net.
וַדָּכַה (יִדְכֶּ֥ה) יָשֹׁ֑חַ וְנָפַ֥ל בַּ֝עֲצוּמָ֗יו חֶלְכָּאִים (חֵ֣יל כָּאִֽים)׃ | 10 |
He croucheth, he boweth down, and the helpless fall into his mighty claws.
אָמַ֣ר בְּ֭לִבֹּו שָׁ֣כַֽח אֵ֑ל הִסְתִּ֥יר פָּ֝נָ֗יו בַּל־רָאָ֥ה לָנֶֽצַח׃ | 11 |
He hath said in his heart: 'God hath forgotten; He hideth His face; He will never see.'
קוּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה אֵ֭ל נְשָׂ֣א יָדֶ֑ךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּ֥ח עֲנִיִּים (עֲנָוֽ͏ִים)׃ | 12 |
Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Thy hand; forget not the humble.
עַל־מֶ֤ה ׀ נִאֵ֖ץ רָשָׁ֥ע ׀ אֱלֹהִ֑ים אָמַ֥ר בְּ֝לִבֹּ֗ו לֹ֣א תִּדְרֹֽשׁ׃ | 13 |
Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, and say in his heart: 'Thou wilt not require'?
רָאִ֡תָה כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה ׀ עָ֘מָ֤ל וָכַ֨עַס ׀ תַּבִּיט֮ לָתֵ֪ת בְּיָ֫דֶ֥ךָ עָ֭לֶיךָ יַעֲזֹ֣ב חֵלֶ֑כָה יָ֝תֹ֗ום אַתָּ֤ה ׀ הָיִ֬יתָ עֹוזֵֽר׃ | 14 |
Thou hast seen; for Thou beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite them with Thy hand; unto Thee the helpless committeth himself; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.
שְׁ֭בֹר זְרֹ֣ועַ רָשָׁ֑ע וָ֝רָ֗ע תִּֽדְרֹושׁ־רִשְׁעֹ֥ו בַל־תִּמְצָֽא׃ | 15 |
Break Thou the arm of the wicked; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness, till none be found.
יְהוָ֣ה מֶ֭לֶךְ עֹולָ֣ם וָעֶ֑ד אָבְד֥וּ גֹ֝ויִ֗ם מֵֽאַרְצֹֽו׃ | 16 |
The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations are perished out of His land.
תַּאֲוַ֬ת עֲנָוִ֣ים שָׁמַ֣עְתָּ יְהוָ֑ה תָּכִ֥ין לִ֝בָּ֗ם תַּקְשִׁ֥יב אָזְנֶֽךָ׃ | 17 |
LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt direct their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to attend;
לִשְׁפֹּ֥ט יָתֹ֗ום וָ֫דָ֥ךְ בַּל־יֹוסִ֥יף עֹ֑וד לַעֲרֹ֥ץ אֱ֝נֹ֗ושׁ מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 18 |
To right the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.
