תְהִלִּים 25

1 לְדָוִ֡ד אֵלֶ֥יךָ יְ֝הוָ֗ה נַפְשִׁ֥י אֶשָּֽׂא׃

[A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.

2 אֱ‍ֽלֹהַ֗י בְּךָ֣ בָ֭טַחְתִּי אַל־אֵבֹ֑ושָׁה אַל־יַֽעַלְצ֖וּ אֹיְבַ֣י לִֽי׃

My God, I confide in thee; let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

3 גַּ֣ם כָּל־קֹ֭וֶיךָ לֹ֣א יֵבֹ֑שׁוּ יֵ֝בֹ֗שׁוּ הַבֹּוגְדִ֥ים רֵיקָֽם׃

Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.

4 דְּרָכֶ֣יךָ יְ֭הוָה הֹודִיעֵ֑נִי אֹ֖רְחֹותֶ֣יךָ לַמְּדֵֽנִי׃

Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths.

5 הַדְרִ֘יכֵ֤נִי בַאֲמִתֶּ֨ךָ ׀ וְֽלַמְּדֵ֗נִי כִּֽי־אַ֭תָּה אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׁעִ֑י אֹותְךָ֥ קִ֝וִּ֗יתִי כָּל־הַיֹּֽום׃

Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

6 זְכֹר־רַחֲמֶ֣יךָ יְ֭הוָה וַחֲסָדֶ֑יךָ כִּ֖י מֵעֹולָ֣ם הֵֽמָּה׃

Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting.

7 חַטֹּ֤אות נְעוּרַ֨י ׀ וּפְשָׁעַ֗י אַל־תִּ֫זְכֹּ֥ר כְּחַסְדְּךָ֥ זְכָר־לִי־אַ֑תָּה לְמַ֖עַן טוּבְךָ֣ יְהוָֽה׃

Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah.

8 טֹוב־וְיָשָׁ֥ר יְהוָ֑ה עַל־כֵּ֤ן יֹורֶ֖ה חַטָּאִ֣ים בַּדָּֽרֶךְ׃

Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way:

9 יַדְרֵ֣ךְ עֲ֭נָוִים בַּמִּשְׁפָּ֑ט וִֽילַמֵּ֖ד עֲנָוִ֣ים דַּרְכֹּֽו׃

The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way.

10 כָּל־אָרְחֹ֣ות יְ֭הוָה חֶ֣סֶד וֶאֱמֶ֑ת לְנֹצְרֵ֥י בְ֝רִיתֹ֗ו וְעֵדֹתָֽיו׃

All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 לְמַֽעַן־שִׁמְךָ֥ יְהוָ֑ה וְֽסָלַחְתָּ֥ לַ֝עֲוֹנִ֗י כִּ֣י רַב־הֽוּא׃

For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12 מִי־זֶ֣ה הָ֭אִישׁ יְרֵ֣א יְהוָ֑ה יֹ֝ורֶ֗נּוּ בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ יִבְחָֽר׃

What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way [that] he should choose.

13 נַ֭פְשֹׁו בְּטֹ֣וב תָּלִ֑ין וְ֝זַרְעֹ֗ו יִ֣ירַשׁ אָֽרֶץ׃

His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14 סֹ֣וד יְ֭הוָה לִירֵאָ֑יו וּ֝בְרִיתֹ֗ו לְהֹודִיעָֽם׃

The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them.

15 עֵינַ֣י תָּ֭מִיד אֶל־יְהוָ֑ה כִּ֤י הֽוּא־יֹוצִ֖יא מֵרֶ֣שֶׁת רַגְלָֽי׃

Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; for he will bring my feet out of the net.

16 פְּנֵה־אֵלַ֥י וְחָנֵּ֑נִי כִּֽי־יָחִ֖יד וְעָנִ֣י אָֽנִי׃

Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted.

17 צָרֹ֣ות לְבָבִ֣י הִרְחִ֑יבוּ מִ֝מְּצֽוּקֹותַ֗י הֹוצִיאֵֽנִי׃

The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses;

18 רְאֵ֣ה עָ֭נְיִי וַעֲמָלִ֑י וְ֝שָׂ֗א לְכָל־חַטֹּאותָֽי׃

Consider mine affliction and my travail, and forgive all my sins.

19 רְאֵֽה־אֹויְבַ֥י כִּי־רָ֑בּוּ וְשִׂנְאַ֖ת חָמָ֣ס שְׂנֵאֽוּנִי׃

Consider mine enemies, for they are many, and they hate me [with] cruel hatred.

20 שָׁמְרָ֣ה נַ֭פְשִׁי וְהַצִּילֵ֑נִי אַל־אֵ֝בֹ֗ושׁ כִּֽי־חָסִ֥יתִי בָֽךְ׃

Keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I trust in thee.

21 תֹּם־וָיֹ֥שֶׁר יִצְּר֑וּנִי כִּ֝֗י קִוִּיתִֽיךָ׃

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

22 פְּדֵ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל מִ֝כֹּ֗ל צָֽרֹותָיו׃

Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
