< תְהִלִּים 103 >
לְדָוִ֙ד ׀ בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה וְכָל־קְ֝רָבַ֗י אֶת־שֵׁ֥ם קָדְשֹֽׁו׃ | 1 |
Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul; all that is within me, bless His holy name.
בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה וְאַל־תִּ֝שְׁכְּחִ֗י כָּל־גְּמוּלָֽיו׃ | 2 |
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all His kind deeds—
הַסֹּלֵ֥חַ לְכָל־עֲוֹנֵ֑כִי הָ֝רֹפֵ֗א לְכָל־תַּחֲלֻאָֽיְכִי׃ | 3 |
He who forgives all your iniquities and heals all your diseases,
הַגֹּואֵ֣ל מִשַּׁ֣חַת חַיָּ֑יְכִי הַֽ֝מְעַטְּרֵ֗כִי חֶ֣סֶד וְרַחֲמִֽים׃ | 4 |
who redeems your life from the Pit and crowns you with loving devotion and compassion,
הַמַּשְׂבִּ֣יַע בַּטֹּ֣וב עֶדְיֵ֑ךְ תִּתְחַדֵּ֖שׁ כַּנֶּ֣שֶׁר נְעוּרָֽיְכִי׃ | 5 |
who satisfies you with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
עֹשֵׂ֣ה צְדָקֹ֣ות יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝מִשְׁפָּטִ֗ים לְכָל־עֲשׁוּקִֽים׃ | 6 |
The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.
יֹודִ֣יעַ דְּרָכָ֣יו לְמֹשֶׁ֑ה לִבְנֵ֥י יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל עֲלִילֹֽותָיו׃ | 7 |
He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the people of Israel.
רַח֣וּם וְחַנּ֣וּן יְהוָ֑ה אֶ֖רֶךְ אַפַּ֣יִם וְרַב־חָֽסֶד׃ | 8 |
The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion.
לֹֽא־לָנֶ֥צַח יָרִ֑יב וְלֹ֖א לְעֹולָ֣ם יִטֹּֽור׃ | 9 |
He will not always accuse us, nor harbor His anger forever.
לֹ֣א כַ֭חֲטָאֵינוּ עָ֣שָׂה לָ֑נוּ וְלֹ֥א כַ֝עֲוֹנֹתֵ֗ינוּ גָּמַ֥ל עָלֵֽינוּ׃ | 10 |
He has not dealt with us according to our sins or repaid us according to our iniquities.
כִּ֤י כִגְבֹ֣הַּ שָׁ֭מַיִם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ גָּבַ֥ר חַ֝סְדֹּ֗ו עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃ | 11 |
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His loving devotion for those who fear Him.
כִּרְחֹ֣ק מִ֭זְרָח מִֽמַּֽעֲרָ֑ב הִֽרְחִ֥יק מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ אֶת־פְּשָׁעֵֽינוּ׃ | 12 |
As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
כְּרַחֵ֣ם אָ֭ב עַל־בָּנִ֑ים רִחַ֥ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃ | 13 |
As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.
כִּי־ה֖וּא יָדַ֣ע יִצְרֵ֑נוּ זָ֝כ֗וּר כִּי־עָפָ֥ר אֲנָֽחְנוּ׃ | 14 |
For He knows our frame; He is mindful that we are dust.
אֱ֭נֹושׁ כֶּחָצִ֣יר יָמָ֑יו כְּצִ֥יץ הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה כֵּ֣ן יָצִֽיץ׃ | 15 |
As for man, his days are like grass— he blooms like a flower of the field;
כִּ֤י ר֣וּחַ עָֽבְרָה־בֹּ֣ו וְאֵינֶ֑נּוּ וְלֹא־יַכִּירֶ֖נּוּ עֹ֣וד מְקֹומֹֽו׃ | 16 |
when the wind passes over, it vanishes, and its place remembers it no more.
וְחֶ֤סֶד יְהוָ֙ה ׀ מֵעֹולָ֣ם וְעַד־עֹ֭ולָם עַל־יְרֵאָ֑יו וְ֝צִדְקָתֹ֗ו לִבְנֵ֥י בָנִֽים׃ | 17 |
But from everlasting to everlasting the loving devotion of the LORD extends to those who fear Him, and His righteousness to their children’s children—
לְשֹׁמְרֵ֥י בְרִיתֹ֑ו וּלְזֹכְרֵ֥י פִ֝קֻּדָ֗יו לַעֲשֹׂותָֽם׃ | 18 |
to those who keep His covenant and remember to obey His precepts.
יְֽהוָ֗ה בַּ֭שָּׁמַיִם הֵכִ֣ין כִּסְאֹ֑ו וּ֝מַלְכוּתֹ֗ו בַּכֹּ֥ל מָשָֽׁלָה׃ | 19 |
The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all.
בָּרֲכ֥וּ יְהוָ֗ה מַלְאָ֫כָ֥יו גִּבֹּ֣רֵי כֹ֭חַ עֹשֵׂ֣י דְבָרֹ֑ו לִ֝שְׁמֹ֗עַ בְּקֹ֣ול דְּבָרֹֽו׃ | 20 |
Bless the LORD, all His angels mighty in strength who carry out His word, who hearken to the voice of His command.
בָּרֲכ֣וּ יְ֭הוָה כָּל־צְבָאָ֑יו מְ֝שָׁרְתָ֗יו עֹשֵׂ֥י רְצֹונֹֽו׃ | 21 |
Bless the LORD, all His hosts, you servants who do His will.
בָּרֲכ֤וּ יְהוָ֙ה ׀ כָּֽל־מַעֲשָׂ֗יו בְּכָל־מְקֹמֹ֥ות מֶמְשַׁלְתֹּ֑ו בָּרֲכִ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ | 22 |
Bless the LORD, all His works in all places of His dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
