< תְהִלִּים 105 >

הֹוד֣וּ לַ֭יהוָה קִרְא֣וּ בִּשְׁמֹ֑ו הֹודִ֥יעוּ בָ֝עַמִּ֗ים עֲלִילֹותָֽיו׃ 1
Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord, and call upon his name; declare his works amongst the heathen.
שִֽׁירוּ־לֹ֖ו זַמְּרוּ־לֹ֑ו שִׂ֝֗יחוּ בְּכָל־נִפְלְאֹותָֽיו׃ 2
Sing to him, yes, sing praises to him: tell forth all his wonderful works.
הִֽ֭תְהַלְלוּ בְּשֵׁ֣ם קָדְשֹׁ֑ו יִ֝שְׂמַ֗ח לֵ֤ב ׀ מְבַקְשֵׁ֬י יְהוָֽה׃ 3
Glory in his holy name: let the heart of them that seek the Lord rejoice.
דִּרְשׁ֣וּ יְהוָ֣ה וְעֻזֹּ֑ו בַּקְּשׁ֖וּ פָנָ֣יו תָּמִֽיד׃ 4
Seek you the Lord, and be strengthened; seek his face continually.
זִכְר֗וּ נִפְלְאֹותָ֥יו אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֑ה מֹ֝פְתָ֗יו וּמִשְׁפְּטֵי־פִֽיו׃ 5
Remember his wonderful works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth;
זֶ֭רַע אַבְרָהָ֣ם עַבְדֹּ֑ו בְּנֵ֖י יַעֲקֹ֣ב בְּחִירָֽיו׃ 6
[you] seed of Abraam, his servants, [you] children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
ה֭וּא יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ בְּכָל־הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ מִשְׁפָּטָֽיו׃ 7
He is the Lord our God; his judgements are in all the earth.
זָכַ֣ר לְעֹולָ֣ם בְּרִיתֹ֑ו דָּבָ֥ר צִ֝וָּ֗ה לְאֶ֣לֶף דֹּֽור׃ 8
He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generation:
אֲשֶׁ֣ר כָּ֭רַת אֶת־אַבְרָהָ֑ם וּשְׁב֖וּעָתֹ֣ו לְיִשְׂחָֽק׃ 9
which he established as a covenant to Abraam, and [he remembered] his oath to Isaac.
וַיַּֽעֲמִידֶ֣הָ לְיַעֲקֹ֣ב לְחֹ֑ק לְ֝יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל בְּרִ֣ית עֹולָֽם׃ 10
And he established it to Jacob for an ordinance, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant;
לֵאמֹ֗ר לְךָ֗ אֶתֵּ֥ן אֶת־אֶֽרֶץ־כְּנָ֑עַן חֶ֝֗בֶל נַחֲלַתְכֶֽם׃ 11
saying To you will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
בִּֽ֭הְיֹותָם מְתֵ֣י מִסְפָּ֑ר כִּ֝מְעַ֗ט וְגָרִ֥ים בָּֽהּ׃ 12
when they were few in number, very few, and sojourners in it.
וַֽ֭יִּתְהַלְּכוּ מִגֹּ֣וי אֶל־גֹּ֑וי מִ֝מַּמְלָכָ֗ה אֶל־עַ֥ם אַחֵֽר׃ 13
And they went from nation to nation, and from [one] kingdom to another people.
לֹֽא־הִנִּ֣יחַ אָדָ֣ם לְעָשְׁקָ֑ם וַיֹּ֖וכַח עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם מְלָכִֽים׃ 14
He suffered no man to wrong them; and he rebuked kings for their sakes:
אַֽל־תִּגְּע֥וּ בִמְשִׁיחָ֑י וְ֝לִנְבִיאַי אַל־תָּרֵֽעוּ׃ 15
[saying], Touch not my anointed ones; and do my prophets no harm.
וַיִּקְרָ֣א רָ֭עָב עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ כָּֽל־מַטֵּה־לֶ֥חֶם שָׁבָֽר׃ 16
Moreover he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole support of bread.
שָׁלַ֣ח לִפְנֵיהֶ֣ם אִ֑ישׁ לְ֝עֶ֗בֶד נִמְכַּ֥ר יֹוסֵֽף׃ 17
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a slave.
עִנּ֣וּ בַכֶּ֣בֶל רַגְלָיו (רַגְלֹ֑ו) בַּ֝רְזֶ֗ל בָּ֣אָה נַפְשֹֽׁו׃ 18
They hurt his feet with fetters; his soul passed into iron,
עַד־עֵ֥ת בֹּֽא־דְבָרֹ֑ו אִמְרַ֖ת יְהוָ֣ה צְרָפָֽתְהוּ׃ 19
until the time that his cause came on; the word of the Lord tried him as fire.
שָׁ֣לַח מֶ֭לֶךְ וַיַתִּירֵ֑הוּ מֹשֵׁ֥ל עַ֝מִּ֗ים וַֽיְפַתְּחֵֽהוּ׃ 20
The king sent and loosed him; [even] the prince of the people, and let him go free.
שָׂמֹ֣ו אָדֹ֣ון לְבֵיתֹ֑ו וּ֝מֹשֵׁ֗ל בְּכָל־קִנְיָנֹֽו׃ 21
He made him Lord over his house, and ruler of all his substance;
לֶאְסֹ֣ר שָׂרָ֣יו בְּנַפְשֹׁ֑ו וּזְקֵנָ֥יו יְחַכֵּֽם׃ 22
to chastise his rulers at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
וַיָּבֹ֣א יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל מִצְרָ֑יִם וְ֝יַעֲקֹ֗ב גָּ֣ר בְּאֶֽרֶץ־חָֽם׃ 23
Israel also came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Cham.
וַיֶּ֣פֶר אֶת־עַמֹּ֣ו מְאֹ֑ד וַ֝יַּֽעֲצִמֵהוּ מִצָּרָֽיו׃ 24
And he increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their enemies.
הָפַ֣ךְ לִ֭בָּם לִשְׂנֹ֣א עַמֹּ֑ו לְ֝הִתְנַכֵּ֗ל בַּעֲבָדָֽיו׃ 25
And he turned their heart to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.
שָׁ֭לַח מֹשֶׁ֣ה עַבְדֹּ֑ו אַ֝הֲרֹ֗ן אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּֽחַר־בֹּֽו׃ 26
He sent fort Moses his servant, [and] Aaron whom he had chosen.
שָֽׂמוּ־בָ֭ם דִּבְרֵ֣י אֹתֹותָ֑יו וּ֝מֹפְתִ֗ים בְּאֶ֣רֶץ חָֽם׃ 27
He established amongst them his signs, and [his] wonders in the land of Cham.
שָׁ֣לַֽח חֹ֭שֶׁךְ וַיַּחְשִׁ֑ךְ וְלֹֽא־מָ֝ר֗וּ אֶת־דְּבָרָוו (דְּבָרֹֽו)׃ 28
He sent forth darkness, and made it dark; yet they rebelled against his words.
הָפַ֣ךְ אֶת־מֵימֵיהֶ֣ם לְדָ֑ם וַ֝יָּ֗מֶת אֶת־דְּגָתָֽם׃ 29
He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
שָׁרַ֣ץ אַרְצָ֣ם צְפַרְדְּעִ֑ים בְּ֝חַדְרֵ֗י מַלְכֵיהֶֽם׃ 30
Their land produced frogs abundantly, in the chambers of their kings.
אָ֭מַר וַיָּבֹ֣א עָרֹ֑ב כִּ֝נִּ֗ים בְּכָל־גְּבוּלָֽם׃ 31
He spoke, and the dog-fly came, and lice in all their coasts.
נָתַ֣ן גִּשְׁמֵיהֶ֣ם בָּרָ֑ד אֵ֖שׁ לֶהָבֹ֣ות בְּאַרְצָֽם׃ 32
He turned their rain into hail, [and sent] flaming fire in their land.
וַיַּ֣ךְ גַּ֭פְנָם וּתְאֵנָתָ֑ם וַ֝יְשַׁבֵּ֗ר עֵ֣ץ גְּבוּלָֽם׃ 33
And he struck their vines and their fig trees; and broke every tree of their coast.
אָ֭מַר וַיָּבֹ֣א אַרְבֶּ֑ה וְ֝יֶ֗לֶק וְאֵ֣ין מִסְפָּֽר׃ 34
He spoke, and the locust came, and caterpillars innumerable,
וַיֹּ֣אכַל כָּל־עֵ֣שֶׂב בְּאַרְצָ֑ם וַ֝יֹּ֗אכַל פְּרִ֣י אַדְמָתָֽם׃ 35
and devoured all the grass in their land, and devoured the fruit of the ground.
וַיַּ֣ךְ כָּל־בְּכֹ֣ור בְּאַרְצָ֑ם רֵ֝אשִׁ֗ית לְכָל־אֹונָֽם׃ 36
He struck also every firstborn of their land, the first fruits of all their labour.
וַֽ֭יֹּוצִיאֵם בְּכֶ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֑ב וְאֵ֖ין בִּשְׁבָטָ֣יו כֹּושֵֽׁל׃ 37
And he brought them out with silver and gold; and there was not a feeble one amongst their tribes.
שָׂמַ֣ח מִצְרַ֣יִם בְּצֵאתָ֑ם כִּֽי־נָפַ֖ל פַּחְדָּ֣ם עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃ 38
Egypt rejoiced at their departing; for the fear of them fell upon them.
פָּרַ֣שׂ עָנָ֣ן לְמָסָ֑ךְ וְ֝אֵ֗שׁ לְהָאִ֥יר לָֽיְלָה׃ 39
He spread out a cloud for a covering to them, and fire to give them light by night.
שָׁאַ֣ל וַיָּבֵ֣א שְׂלָ֑ו וְלֶ֥חֶם שָׁ֝מַ֗יִם יַשְׂבִּיעֵֽם׃ 40
They asked, and the quail came, and he satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
פָּ֣תַח צ֭וּר וַיָּז֣וּבוּ מָ֑יִם הָ֝לְכ֗וּ בַּצִּיֹּ֥ות נָהָֽר׃ 41
He clave the rock, and the waters flowed, rivers ran in dry places.
כִּֽי־זָ֭כַר אֶת־דְּבַ֣ר קָדְשֹׁ֑ו אֶֽת־אַבְרָהָ֥ם עַבְדֹּֽו׃ 42
For he remembered his holy word, which [he promised] to Abraam his servant.
וַיֹּוצִ֣א עַמֹּ֣ו בְשָׂשֹׂ֑ון בְּ֝רִנָּ֗ה אֶת־בְּחִירָֽיו׃ 43
And he brought out his people with exultation, and his chosen with joy;
וַיִּתֵּ֣ן לָ֭הֶם אַרְצֹ֣ות גֹּויִ֑ם וַעֲמַ֖ל לְאֻמִּ֣ים יִירָֽשׁוּ׃ 44
and gave them the lands of the heathen; and they inherited the labours of the people;
בַּעֲב֤וּר ׀ יִשְׁמְר֣וּ חֻ֭קָּיו וְתֹורֹתָ֥יו יִנְצֹ֗רוּ הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ 45
that they might keep his ordinances, and diligently seek his law.
