תְהִלִּים 66

1 לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ שִׁ֣יר מִזְמֹ֑ור הָרִ֥יעוּ לֵ֝אלֹהִים כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃

To the chief Musician. A Song: a Psalm. Shout aloud unto God, all the earth:

2 זַמְּר֥וּ כְבֹֽוד־שְׁמֹ֑ו שִׂ֥ימוּ כָ֝בֹ֗וד תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃

Sing forth the glory of his name, make his praise glorious;

3 אִמְר֣וּ לֵ֭אלֹהִים מַה־נֹּורָ֣א מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ בְּרֹ֥ב עֻ֝זְּךָ֗ יְֽכַחֲשׁ֖וּ לְךָ֣ אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃

Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! because of the greatness of thy strength, thine enemies come cringing unto thee.

4 כָּל־הָאָ֤רֶץ ׀ יִשְׁתַּחֲו֣וּ לְ֭ךָ וִֽיזַמְּרוּ־לָ֑ךְ יְזַמְּר֖וּ שִׁמְךָ֣ סֶֽלָה׃

All the earth shall worship thee, and sing psalms unto thee: they shall sing forth thy name. (Selah)

5 לְכ֣וּ וּ֭רְאוּ מִפְעֲלֹ֣ות אֱלֹהִ֑ים נֹורָ֥א עֲ֝לִילָ֗ה עַל־בְּנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃

Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in [his] doings toward the children of men.

6 הָ֤פַךְ יָ֨ם ׀ לְֽיַבָּשָׁ֗ה בַּ֭נָּהָר יַֽעַבְר֣וּ בְרָ֑גֶל שָׁ֝֗ם נִשְׂמְחָה־בֹּֽו׃

He turned the sea into dry [land]; they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.

7 מֹ֘שֵׁ֤ל בִּגְבוּרָתֹ֨ו ׀ עֹולָ֗ם עֵ֭ינָיו בַּגֹּויִ֣ם תִּצְפֶּ֑ינָה הַסֹּורְרִ֓ים ׀ אַל־יָרִימוּ (יָר֖וּמוּ) לָ֣מֹו סֶֽלָה׃

He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)

8 בָּרְכ֖וּ עַמִּ֥ים ׀ אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ וְ֝הַשְׁמִ֗יעוּ קֹ֣ול תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃

Bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;

9 הַשָּׂ֣ם נַ֭פְשֵׁנוּ בַּֽחַיִּ֑ים וְלֹֽא־נָתַ֖ן לַמֹּ֣וט רַגְלֵֽנוּ׃

Who hath set our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

10 כִּֽי־בְחַנְתָּ֥נוּ אֱלֹהִ֑ים צְ֝רַפְתָּ֗נוּ כִּצְרָף־כָּֽסֶף׃

For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

11 הֲבֵאתָ֥נוּ בַמְּצוּדָ֑ה שַׂ֖מְתָּ מוּעָקָ֣ה בְמָתְנֵֽינוּ׃

Thou broughtest us into a net, thou didst lay a heavy burden upon our loins;

12 הִרְכַּ֥בְתָּ אֱנֹ֗ושׁ לְרֹ֫אשֵׁ֥נוּ בָּֽאנוּ־בָאֵ֥שׁ וּבַמַּ֑יִם וַ֝תֹּוצִיאֵ֗נוּ לָֽרְוָיָֽה׃

Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance.

13 אָבֹ֣וא בֵיתְךָ֣ בְעֹולֹ֑ות אֲשַׁלֵּ֖ם לְךָ֣ נְדָרָֽי׃

I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee,

14 אֲשֶׁר־פָּצ֥וּ שְׂפָתָ֑י וְדִבֶּר־פִּ֝֗י בַּצַּר־לִֽי׃

Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

15 עֹ֘לֹ֤ות מֵחִ֣ים אַעֲלֶה־לָּ֭ךְ עִם־קְטֹ֣רֶת אֵילִ֑ים אֶ֥עֱשֶֽׂה בָקָ֖ר עִם־עַתּוּדִ֣ים סֶֽלָה׃

I will offer up unto thee burnt-offerings of fatted beasts, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)

16 לְכֽוּ־שִׁמְע֣וּ וַ֭אֲסַפְּרָה כָּל־יִרְאֵ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֲשֶׁ֖ר עָשָׂ֣ה לְנַפְשִֽׁי׃

Come, hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

17 אֵלָ֥יו פִּֽי־קָרָ֑אתִי וְ֝רֹומַ֗ם תַּ֣חַת לְשֹׁונִֽי׃

I called unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

18 אָ֭וֶן אִם־רָאִ֣יתִי בְלִבִּ֑י לֹ֖א יִשְׁמַ֣ע ׀ אֲדֹנָֽי׃

Had I regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear.

19 אָ֭כֵן שָׁמַ֣ע אֱלֹהִ֑ים הִ֝קְשִׁ֗יב בְּקֹ֣ול תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃

But God hath heard; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

20 בָּר֥וּךְ אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר לֹֽא־הֵסִ֘יר תְּפִלָּתִ֥י וְ֝חַסְדֹּ֗ו מֵאִתִּֽי׃

Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his loving-kindness from me!
