< תְהִלִּים 59 >
לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵת֮ לְדָוִ֪ד מִ֫כְתָּ֥ם בִּשְׁלֹ֥חַ שָׁא֑וּל וַֽיִּשְׁמְר֥וּ אֶת־הַ֝בַּ֗יִת לַהֲמִיתֹֽו׃ הַצִּילֵ֖נִי מֵאֹיְבַ֥י ׀ אֱלֹהָ֑י מִּמִתְקֹומְמַ֥י תְּשַׂגְּבֵֽנִי׃ | 1 |
For the end. Destroy not: by David for a memorial, when Saul sent, and watched his house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O God; and ransom me from those that rise up against me.
הַ֭צִּילֵנִי מִפֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וּֽמֵאַנְשֵׁ֥י דָ֝מִ֗ים הֹושִׁיעֵֽנִי׃ | 2 |
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
כִּ֤י הִנֵּ֪ה אָֽרְב֡וּ לְנַפְשִׁ֗י יָג֣וּרוּ עָלַ֣י עַזִ֑ים לֹא־פִשְׁעִ֖י וְלֹא־חַטָּאתִ֣י יְהוָֽה׃ | 3 |
For, behold, they have hunted after my soul; violent men have set upon me: neither [is it] my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord.
בְּֽלִי־עָ֭וֹן יְרוּצ֣וּן וְיִכֹּונָ֑נוּ ע֖וּרָה לִקְרָאתִ֣י וּרְאֵה׃ | 4 |
Without iniquity I ran and directed [my course aright]: awake to help me, and behold.
וְאַתָּ֤ה יְהוָֽה־אֱלֹהִ֥ים ׀ צְבָאֹ֡ות אֱלֹ֘הֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל הָקִ֗יצָה לִפְקֹ֥ד כָּֽל־הַגֹּויִ֑ם אַל־תָּחֹ֨ן כָּל־בֹּ֖גְדֵי אָ֣וֶן סֶֽלָה׃ | 5 |
And you, Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, draw near to visit all the heathen; pity not any that work iniquity. (Pause)
יָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיסֹ֥ובְבוּ עִֽיר׃ | 6 |
They shall return at evening, and hunger like a dog, and go round about the city.
הִנֵּ֤ה ׀ יַבִּ֘יע֤וּן בְּפִיהֶ֗ם חֲ֭רָבֹות בְּשִׂפְתֹותֵיהֶ֑ם כִּי־מִ֥י שֹׁמֵֽעַ׃ | 7 |
Behold, they shall utter a voice with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips; for who, [say they], has heard?
וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תִּשְׂחַק־לָ֑מֹו תִּ֝לְעַ֗ג לְכָל־גֹּויִֽם׃ | 8 |
But you, Lord, will laugh them to scorn; you will utterly set at nothing all the heathen.
עֻ֭זֹּו אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֶשְׁמֹ֑רָה כִּֽי־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים מִשְׂגַּבִּֽי׃ | 9 |
will keep my strength, [looking] to you; for you, O God, are my helper.
אֱלֹהֵ֣י חַסְדֹּו (חַסְדִּ֣י) יְקַדְּמֵ֑נִי אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים יַרְאֵ֥נִי בְשֹׁרְרָֽי׃ | 10 |
[As for] my God, his mercy shall go before me: my God will show me [vengeance] on mine enemies.
אַל־תַּהַרְגֵ֤ם ׀ פֶּֽן־יִשְׁכְּח֬וּ עַמִּ֗י הֲנִיעֵ֣מֹו בְ֭חֵילְךָ וְהֹורִידֵ֑מֹו מָֽגִנֵּ֣נוּ אֲדֹנָֽי׃ | 11 |
Slay them not, lest they forget your law; scatter them by your power; and bring them down, O Lord, my defender.
חַטַּאת־פִּ֗ימֹו דְּֽבַר־שְׂפָ֫תֵ֥ימֹו וְיִלָּכְד֥וּ בִגְאֹונָ֑ם וּמֵאָלָ֖ה וּמִכַּ֣חַשׁ יְסַפֵּֽרוּ׃ | 12 |
[For] the sin of their mouth, [and] the word of their lips, let them be even taken in their pride.
כַּלֵּ֥ה בְחֵמָה֮ כַּלֵּ֪ה וְֽאֵ֫ינֵ֥מֹו וְֽיֵדְע֗וּ כִּֽי־אֱ֭לֹהִים מֹשֵׁ֣ל בְּיַעֲקֹ֑ב לְאַפְסֵ֖י הָאָ֣רֶץ סֶֽלָה׃ | 13 |
And for [their] cursing and falsehood shall utter destruction be denounced: [they shall fall] by the wrath of utter destruction, and shall not be; so shall they know that the God of Jacob is Lord of the ends of the earth. (Pause)
וְיָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיסֹ֥ובְבוּ עִֽיר׃ | 14 |
They shall return at evening, and be hungry as a dog, and go round about the city.
הֵ֭מָּה יְנוּעוּן (יְנִיע֣וּן) לֶאֱכֹ֑ל אִם־לֹ֥א יִ֝שְׂבְּע֗וּ וַיָּלִֽינוּ׃ | 15 |
They shall be scattered hither and there for meat; and if they be not satisfied, they shall even murmur.
וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ אָשִׁ֣יר עֻזֶּךָ֮ וַאֲרַנֵּ֥ן לַבֹּ֗קֶר חַ֫סְדֶּ֥ךָ כִּֽי־הָיִ֣יתָ מִשְׂגָּ֣ב לִ֑י וּ֝מָנֹ֗וס בְּיֹ֣ום צַר־לִֽי׃ | 16 |
But I will sing to your strength, and in the morning will I exult [in] your mercy; for you have been my supporter, and my refuge in the day of mine affliction.
עֻ֭זִּי אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֲזַמֵּ֑רָה כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִ֥ים מִ֝שְׂגַּבִּ֗י אֱלֹהֵ֥י חַסְדִּֽי׃ | 17 |
[You are] my helper; to you, my God, will I sing; you are my supporter, O my God, [and] my mercy.
