< תְהִלִּים 33 >
רַנְּנ֣וּ צַ֭דִּיקִים בַּֽיהוָ֑ה לַ֝יְשָׁרִ֗ים נָאוָ֥ה תְהִלָּֽה׃ | 1 |
Be joyful, O ye righteous, in the Lord; [for] unto the righteous praise is comely.
הֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה בְּכִנֹּ֑ור בְּנֵ֥בֶל עָ֝שֹׂ֗ור זַמְּרוּ־לֹֽו׃ | 2 |
Give thanks unto the Lord with the harp: with the ten-stringed psaltery do ye sing [praises] unto him.
שִֽׁירוּ־לֹ֖ו שִׁ֣יר חָדָ֑שׁ הֵיטִ֥יבוּ נַ֝גֵּ֗ן בִּתְרוּעָֽה׃ | 3 |
Sing unto him a new song; play beautifully amidst a triumphant shout.
כִּֽי־יָשָׁ֥ר דְּבַר־יְהוָ֑ה וְכָל־מַ֝עֲשֵׂ֗הוּ בֶּאֱמוּנָֽה׃ | 4 |
For the word of the Lord is upright; and all his works [are done] in truth.
אֹ֭הֵב צְדָקָ֣ה וּמִשְׁפָּ֑ט חֶ֥סֶד יְ֝הוָ֗ה מָלְאָ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 5 |
He loveth righteousness and justice: the earth is full of the kindness of the Lord.
בִּדְבַ֣ר יְ֭הוָה שָׁמַ֣יִם נַעֲשׂ֑וּ וּבְר֥וּחַ פִּ֝֗יו כָּל־צְבָאָֽם׃ | 6 |
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
כֹּנֵ֣ס כַּ֭נֵּד מֵ֣י הַיָּ֑ם נֹתֵ֖ן בְּאֹצָרֹ֣ות תְּהֹומֹֽות׃ | 7 |
He gathereth together like heaps the waters of the sea: he layeth up in store-houses the depths [of the sea].
יִֽירְא֣וּ מֵ֭יְהוָה כָּל־הָאָ֑רֶץ מִמֶּ֥נּוּ יָ֝ג֗וּרוּ כָּל־יֹשְׁבֵ֥י תֵבֵֽל׃ | 8 |
Let all the earth fear the Lord: of him stand in awe all the inhabitants of the world.
כִּ֤י ה֣וּא אָמַ֣ר וַיֶּ֑הִי הֽוּא־צִ֝וָּ֗ה וֽ͏ַיַּעֲמֹֽד׃ | 9 |
For he spoke, and it came into being: he commanded, and it stood fast.
יְֽהוָ֗ה הֵפִ֥יר עֲצַת־גֹּויִ֑ם הֵ֝נִ֗יא מַחְשְׁבֹ֥ות עַמִּֽים׃ | 10 |
The Lord frustrateth the resolves of the nations: he bringeth to nought the thoughts of the people.
עֲצַ֣ת יְ֭הוָה לְעֹולָ֣ם תַּעֲמֹ֑ד מַחְשְׁבֹ֥ות לִ֝בֹּ֗ו לְדֹ֣ר וָדֹֽר׃ | 11 |
The counsel of the Lord will stand for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
אַשְׁרֵ֣י הַ֭גֹּוי אֲשֶׁר־יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהָ֑יו הָעָ֓ם ׀ בָּחַ֖ר לְנַחֲלָ֣ה לֹֽו׃ | 12 |
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he hath chosen for himself as a heritage.
מִ֭שָּׁמַיִם הִבִּ֣יט יְהוָ֑ה רָ֝אָ֗ה אֶֽת־כָּל־בְּנֵ֥י הָאָדָֽם׃ | 13 |
The Lord looketh from heaven; he seeth all the sons of men.
מִֽמְּכֹון־שִׁבְתֹּ֥ו הִשְׁגִּ֑יחַ אֶ֖ל כָּל־יֹשְׁבֵ֣י הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 14 |
From the place of his habitation he directeth his view upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
הַיֹּצֵ֣ר יַ֣חַד לִבָּ֑ם הַ֝מֵּבִ֗ין אֶל־כָּל־מַעֲשֵׂיהֶֽם׃ | 15 |
He fashioneth their hearts altogether; he hath regard to all their works.
אֵֽין־הַ֭מֶּלֶךְ נֹושָׁ֣ע בְּרָב־חָ֑יִל גִּ֝בֹּ֗ור לֹֽא־יִנָּצֵ֥ל בְּרָב־כֹּֽחַ׃ | 16 |
The king is not saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
שֶׁ֣קֶר הַ֭סּוּס לִתְשׁוּעָ֑ה וּבְרֹ֥ב חֵ֝ילֹ֗ו לֹ֣א יְמַלֵּֽט׃ | 17 |
Vain is the horse for victory: nor shall he deliver any by the greatness of his strength.
הִנֵּ֤ה עֵ֣ין יְ֭הוָה אֶל־יְרֵאָ֑יו לַֽמְיַחֲלִ֥ים לְחַסְדֹּֽו׃ | 18 |
Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those that fear him, upon those that hope for his kindness.
לְהַצִּ֣יל מִמָּ֣וֶת נַפְשָׁ֑ם וּ֝לְחַיֹּותָ֗ם בָּרָעָֽב׃ | 19 |
To deliver from death their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
נַ֭פְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָ֣ה לַֽיהוָ֑ה עֶזְרֵ֖נוּ וּמָגִנֵּ֣נוּ הֽוּא׃ | 20 |
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: our help and our shield is he.
כִּי־בֹ֭ו יִשְׂמַ֣ח לִבֵּ֑נוּ כִּ֤י בְשֵׁ֖ם קָדְשֹׁ֣ו בָטָֽחְנוּ׃ | 21 |
For in him shall our heart rejoice: because in his holy name have we trusted.
יְהִֽי־חַסְדְּךָ֣ יְהוָ֣ה עָלֵ֑ינוּ כַּ֝אֲשֶׁ֗ר יִחַ֥לְנוּ לָֽךְ׃ | 22 |
Let thy kindness, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in thee.
