תְהִלִּים 51
| לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃ בְּֽבֹוא־אֵ֭לָיו נָתָ֣ן הַנָּבִ֑יא כַּֽאֲשֶׁר־בָּ֝֗א אֶל־בַּת־שָֽׁבַע׃ חָנֵּ֣נִי אֱלֹהִ֣ים כְּחַסְדֶּ֑ךָ כְּרֹ֥ב רַ֝חֲמֶ֗יךָ מְחֵ֣ה פְשָׁעָֽי׃ | 1 |
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
| הַרְבֵּה (הֶ֭רֶב) כַּבְּסֵ֣נִי מֵעֲוֹנִ֑י וּֽמֵחַטָּאתִ֥י טַהֲרֵֽנִי׃ | 2 |
Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
| כִּֽי־פְ֭שָׁעַי אֲנִ֣י אֵדָ֑ע וְחַטָּאתִ֖י נֶגְדִּ֣י תָמִֽיד׃ | 3 |
For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin [is] ever before me.
| לְךָ֤ לְבַדְּךָ֨ ׀ חָטָאתִי֮ וְהָרַ֥ע בְּעֵינֶ֗יךָ עָ֫שִׂ֥יתִי לְ֭מַעַן תִּצְדַּ֥ק בְּדָבְרֶ֗ךָ תִּזְכֶּ֥ה בְשָׁפְטֶֽךָ׃ | 4 |
Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done [this] evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, [and] be clear when thou judgest.
| הֵן־בְּעָוֹ֥ון חֹולָ֑לְתִּי וּ֝בְחֵ֗טְא יֶֽחֱמַ֥תְנִי אִמִּֽי׃ | 5 |
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
| הֵן־אֱ֭מֶת חָפַ֣צְתָּ בַטֻּחֹ֑ות וּ֝בְסָתֻ֗ם חָכְמָ֥ה תֹודִיעֵֽנִי׃ | 6 |
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden [part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
| תְּחַטְּאֵ֣נִי בְאֵזֹ֣וב וְאֶטְהָ֑ר תְּ֝כַבְּסֵ֗נִי וּמִשֶּׁ֥לֶג אַלְבִּֽין׃ | 7 |
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
| תַּ֭שְׁמִיעֵנִי שָׂשֹׂ֣ון וְשִׂמְחָ֑ה תָּ֝גֵ֗לְנָה עֲצָמֹ֥ות דִּכִּֽיתָ׃ | 8 |
Make me to hear joy and gladness; [that] the bones [which] thou hast broken may rejoice.
| הַסְתֵּ֣ר פָּ֭נֶיךָ מֵחֲטָאָ֑י וְֽכָל־עֲוֹ֖נֹתַ֣י מְחֵֽה׃ | 9 |
Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
| לֵ֣ב טָ֭הֹור בְּרָא־לִ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים וְר֥וּחַ נָ֝כֹ֗ון חַדֵּ֥שׁ בְּקִרְבִּֽי׃ | 10 |
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
| אַל־תַּשְׁלִיכֵ֥נִי מִלְּפָנֶ֑יךָ וְר֥וּחַ קָ֝דְשְׁךָ֗ אַל־תִּקַּ֥ח מִמֶּֽנִּי׃ | 11 |
Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
| הָשִׁ֣יבָה לִּ֭י שְׂשֹׂ֣ון יִשְׁעֶ֑ךָ וְר֖וּחַ נְדִיבָ֣ה תִסְמְכֵֽנִי׃ | 12 |
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me [with thy] free spirit.
| אֲלַמְּדָ֣ה פֹשְׁעִ֣ים דְּרָכֶ֑יךָ וְ֝חַטָּאִ֗ים אֵלֶ֥יךָ יָשֽׁוּבוּ׃ | 13 |
[Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
| הַצִּ֘ילֵ֤נִי מִדָּמִ֨ים ׀ אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים אֱלֹהֵ֥י תְּשׁוּעָתִ֑י תְּרַנֵּ֥ן לְשֹׁונִ֗י צִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃ | 14 |
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: [and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
| אֲ֭דֹנָי שְׂפָתַ֣י תִּפְתָּ֑ח וּ֝פִ֗י יַגִּ֥יד תְּהִלָּתֶֽךָ׃ | 15 |
O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
| כִּ֤י ׀ לֹא־תַחְפֹּ֣ץ זֶ֣בַח וְאֶתֵּ֑נָה עֹ֝ולָ֗ה לֹ֣א תִרְצֶֽה׃ | 16 |
For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give [it: ] thou delightest not in burnt offering.
| זִֽבְחֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים֮ ר֪וּחַ נִשְׁבָּ֫רָ֥ה לֵב־נִשְׁבָּ֥ר וְנִדְכֶּ֑ה אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים לֹ֣א תִבְזֶֽה׃ | 17 |
The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
| הֵיטִ֣יבָה בִ֭רְצֹונְךָ אֶת־צִיֹּ֑ון תִּ֝בְנֶ֗ה חֹומֹ֥ות יְרוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ | 18 |
Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
| אָ֤ז תַּחְפֹּ֣ץ זִבְחֵי־צֶ֭דֶק עֹולָ֣ה וְכָלִ֑יל אָ֤ז יַעֲל֖וּ עַל־מִזְבַּחֲךָ֣ פָרִֽים׃ | 19 |
Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
