לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ אַל־תַּ֭שְׁחֵת לְדָוִ֣ד מִכְתָּ֑ם בְּבָרְחֹ֥ו מִפְּנֵי־שָׁ֝א֗וּל בַּמְּעָרֽ͏ָה׃ חָנֵּ֤נִי אֱלֹהִ֨ים ׀ חָנֵּ֗נִי כִּ֥י בְךָ֮ חָסָ֪יָה נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י וּבְצֵֽל־כְּנָפֶ֥יךָ אֶחְסֶ֑ה עַ֝֗ד יַעֲבֹ֥ר הַוֹּֽות׃ 1
To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.
אֶ֭קְרָא לֵֽאלֹהִ֣ים עֶלְיֹ֑ון לָ֝אֵ֗ל גֹּמֵ֥ר עָלָֽי׃ 2
I will call unto God, the Most High; unto God that performeth [all] for me.
יִשְׁלַ֤ח מִשָּׁמַ֨יִם ׀ וְֽיֹושִׁיעֵ֗נִי חֵרֵ֣ף שֹׁאֲפִ֣י סֶ֑לָה יִשְׁלַ֥ח אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים חַסְדֹּ֥ו וַאֲמִתֹּֽו׃ 3
He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.
נַפְשִׁ֤י ׀ בְּתֹ֥וךְ לְבָאִם֮ אֶשְׁכְּבָ֪ה לֹ֫הֲטִ֥ים בְּֽנֵי־אָדָ֗ם שִׁ֭נֵּיהֶם חֲנִ֣ית וְחִצִּ֑ים וּ֝לְשֹׁונָ֗ם חֶ֣רֶב חַדָּֽה׃ 4
My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down [among] them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
ר֣וּמָה עַל־הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כָּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבֹודֶֽךָ׃ 5
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
רֶ֤שֶׁת ׀ הֵכִ֣ינוּ לִפְעָמַי֮ כָּפַ֪ף נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י כָּר֣וּ לְפָנַ֣י שִׁיחָ֑ה נָפְל֖וּ בְתֹוכָ֣הּ סֶֽלָה׃ 6
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. (Selah)
נָ֘כֹ֤ון לִבִּ֣י אֱ֭לֹהִים נָכֹ֣ון לִבִּ֑י אָ֝שִׁ֗ירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃ 7
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms.
ע֤וּרָה כְבֹודִ֗י ע֭וּרָֽה הַנֵּ֥בֶל וְכִנֹּ֗ור אָעִ֥ירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃ 8
Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
אֹודְךָ֖ בָעַמִּ֥ים ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י אֲ֝זַמֶּרְךָ֗ בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃ 9
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
כִּֽי־גָדֹ֣ל עַד־שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ 10
For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
ר֣וּמָה עַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כָּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבֹודֶֽךָ׃ 11
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
