תְהִלִּים 5

1 לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אֶֽל־הַנְּחִילֹ֗ות מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃ אֲמָרַ֖י הַאֲזִ֥ינָה ׀ יְהוָ֗ה בִּ֣ינָה הֲגִֽיגִי׃

For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by the flute. Hear my words, Lord: give heed to my whisper.

2 הַקְשִׁ֤יבָה ׀ לְקֹ֬ול שַׁוְעִ֗י מַלְכִּ֥י וֵאלֹהָ֑י כִּֽי־אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ אֶתְפַּלָּֽל׃

Attend to my loud cry for help, my king and my God.

3 יְֽהוָ֗ה בֹּ֖קֶר תִּשְׁמַ֣ע קֹולִ֑י בֹּ֥קֶר אֶֽעֱרָךְ־לְ֝ךָ֗ וַאֲצַפֶּֽה׃

When I pray to you, Lord, in the morning, hear my voice. I make ready for you in the morning, and look for a sign.

4 כִּ֤י ׀ לֹ֤א אֵֽל־חָפֵ֘ץ רֶ֥שַׁע ׀ אָ֑תָּה לֹ֖א יְגֻרְךָ֣ רָֽע׃

For you are no God who takes pleasure in wickedness: no one of evil can be your guest.

5 לֹֽא־יִתְיַצְּב֣וּ הֹֽ֭ולְלִים לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינֶ֑יךָ שָׂ֝נֵ֗אתָ כָּל־פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃

No braggarts can stand in your presence, you hate all workers of wrong.

6 תְּאַבֵּד֮ דֹּבְרֵ֪י כָ֫זָ֥ב אִישׁ־דָּמִ֥ים וּמִרְמָ֗ה יְתָ֘עֵ֥ב ׀ יְהוָֽה׃

You destroy all speakers of lies, people of blood and deceit you abhor.

7 וַאֲנִ֗י בְּרֹ֣ב חַ֭סְדְּךָ אָבֹ֣וא בֵיתֶ֑ךָ אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֥ה אֶל־הֽ͏ֵיכַל־קָ֝דְשְׁךָ֗ בְּיִרְאָתֶֽךָ׃

But I, through your kindness abundant, may enter your house, and towards the shrine of your temple may reverently bow.

8 יְהוָ֤ה ׀ נְחֵ֬נִי בְצִדְקָתֶ֗ךָ לְמַ֥עַן שֹׁורְרָ֑י הֹושַׁר (הַיְשַׁ֖ר) לְפָנַ֣י דַּרְכֶּֽךָ׃

Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way level before me.

9 כִּ֤י אֵ֪ין בְּפִ֡יהוּ נְכֹונָה֮ קִרְבָּ֪ם הַ֫וֹּ֥ות קֶֽבֶר־פָּת֥וּחַ גְּרֹונָ֑ם לְ֝שֹׁונָ֗ם יַחֲלִֽיקוּן׃

For their mouth is a stranger to truth, their heart is a pit of destruction. Their throat is a wide open grave, their tongue the smooth tongue of the hypocrite.

10 הַֽאֲשִׁימֵ֨ם ׀ אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים יִפְּלוּ֮ מִֽמֹּעֲצֹ֪ותֵ֫יהֶ֥ם בְּרֹ֣ב פִּ֭שְׁעֵיהֶם הַדִּיחֵ֑מֹו כִּי־מָ֥רוּ בָֽךְ׃

Condemn them, God; let their schemes bring them down to the ground. For their numberless crimes thrust them down for playing the rebel against you.

11 וְיִשְׂמְח֨וּ כָל־חֹ֪וסֵי בָ֡ךְ לְעֹולָ֣ם יְ֭רַנֵּנוּ וְתָסֵ֣ךְ עָלֵ֑ימֹו וְֽיַעְלְצ֥וּ בְ֝ךָ֗ אֹהֲבֵ֥י שְׁמֶֽךָ׃

But let all who take refuge in you ring out their gladness forever. Protect those who love your name, so they may exult in you.

12 כִּֽי־אַתָּה֮ תְּבָרֵ֪ךְ צַ֫דִּ֥יק יְהוָ֑ה כַּ֝צִּנָּ֗ה רָצֹ֥ון תַּעְטְרֶֽנּוּ׃

For you give your blessing, Lord, to the godly, and the shield of your favor protects them.
