< תְהִלִּים 56 >
לַמְנַצֵּ֤חַ ׀ עַל־יֹ֬ונַת אֵ֣לֶם רְ֭חֹקִים לְדָוִ֣ד מִכְתָּ֑ם בֶּֽאֱחֹ֨ז אֹתֹ֖ו פְלִשְׁתִּ֣ים בְּגַֽת׃ חָנֵּ֣נִי אֱ֭לֹהִים כִּֽי־שְׁאָפַ֣נִי אֱנֹ֑ושׁ כָּל־הַ֝יֹּ֗ום לֹחֵ֥ם יִלְחָצֵֽנִי׃ | 1 |
BE merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
שָׁאֲפ֣וּ שֹׁ֭ורְרַי כָּל־הַיֹּ֑ום כִּֽי־רַבִּ֨ים לֹחֲמִ֖ים לִ֣י מָרֹֽום׃ | 2 |
Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
יֹ֥ום אִירָ֑א אֲ֝נִ֗י אֵלֶ֥יךָ אֶבְטָֽח׃ | 3 |
What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
בֵּאלֹהִים֮ אֲהַלֵּ֪ל דְּבָ֫רֹ֥ו בֵּאלֹהִ֣ים בָּ֭טַחְתִּי לֹ֣א אִירָ֑א מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂ֖ה בָשָׂ֣ר לִֽי׃ | 4 |
In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
כָּל־הַ֭יֹּום דְּבָרַ֣י יְעַצֵּ֑בוּ עָלַ֖י כָּל־מַחְשְׁבֹתָ֣ם לָרָֽע׃ | 5 |
Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
יָג֤וּרוּ ׀ יַצְפִּינוּ (יִצְפֹּ֗ונוּ) הֵ֭מָּה עֲקֵבַ֣י יִשְׁמֹ֑רוּ כַּ֝אֲשֶׁ֗ר קִוּ֥וּ נַפְשִֽׁי׃ | 6 |
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
עַל־אָ֥וֶן פַּלֶּט־לָ֑מֹו בְּ֝אַ֗ף עַמִּ֤ים ׀ הֹורֵ֬ד אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 7 |
Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
נֹדִי֮ סָפַ֪רְתָּ֫ה אָ֥תָּה שִׂ֣ימָה דִמְעָתִ֣י בְנֹאדֶ֑ךָ הֲ֝לֹ֗א בְּסִפְרָתֶֽךָ׃ | 8 |
Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
אָ֥֨ז יָ֘שׁ֤וּבוּ אֹויְבַ֣י אָ֭חֹור בְּיֹ֣ום אֶקְרָ֑א זֶה־יָ֝דַ֗עְתִּי כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִ֥ים לִֽי׃ | 9 |
When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
בֵּֽ֭אלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּ֣ל דָּבָ֑ר בַּ֝יהוָ֗ה אֲהַלֵּ֥ל דָּבָֽר׃ | 10 |
In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
בֵּֽאלֹהִ֣ים בָּ֭טַחְתִּי לֹ֣א אִירָ֑א מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂ֖ה אָדָ֣ם לִֽי׃ | 11 |
In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
עָלַ֣י אֱלֹהִ֣ים נְדָרֶ֑יךָ אֲשַׁלֵּ֖ם תֹּודֹ֣ת לָֽךְ׃ | 12 |
Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
כִּ֤י הִצַּ֪לְתָּ נַפְשִׁ֡י מִמָּוֶת֮ הֲלֹ֥א רַגְלַ֗י מִ֫דֶּ֥חִי לְ֭הִֽתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים בְּ֝אֹ֗ור הֽ͏ַחַיִּֽים׃ | 13 |
For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
