תְהִלִּים 66

1 לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ שִׁ֣יר מִזְמֹ֑ור הָרִ֥יעוּ לֵ֝אלֹהִים כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃

TO THE OVERSEER. A SONG. A PSALM. Shout to God, all the earth.

2 זַמְּר֥וּ כְבֹֽוד־שְׁמֹ֑ו שִׂ֥ימוּ כָ֝בֹ֗וד תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃

Praise the glory of His Name, Make honorable His praise.

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

Say to God, “How fearful Your works—By the abundance of Your strength, Your enemies feign obedience to You.

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

All the earth bows to You, They sing praise to You, they praise Your Name.” (Selah)

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

Come, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men.

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

He has turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There we rejoice in Him.

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

Ruling by His might for all time, His eyes watch among the nations, The stubborn do not exalt themselves. (Selah)

8 בָּרְכ֖וּ עַמִּ֥ים ׀ אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ וְ֝הַשְׁמִ֗יעוּ קֹ֣ול תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃

Bless our God you peoples, And sound the voice of His praise,

9 הַשָּׂ֣ם נַ֭פְשֵׁנוּ בַּֽחַיִּ֑ים וְלֹֽא־נָתַ֖ן לַמֹּ֣וט רַגְלֵֽנוּ׃

Who has placed our soul in life, And has not permitted our feet to be moved.

10 כִּֽי־בְחַנְתָּ֥נוּ אֱלֹהִ֑ים צְ֝רַפְתָּ֗נוּ כִּצְרָף־כָּֽסֶף׃

For You have tried us, O God, You have refined us as the refining of silver.

11 הֲבֵאתָ֥נוּ בַמְּצוּדָ֑ה שַׂ֖מְתָּ מוּעָקָ֣ה בְמָתְנֵֽינוּ׃

You have brought us into a net, You have placed pressure on our loins.

12 הִרְכַּ֥בְתָּ אֱנֹ֗ושׁ לְרֹ֫אשֵׁ֥נוּ בָּֽאנוּ־בָאֵ֥שׁ וּבַמַּ֑יִם וַ֝תֹּוצִיאֵ֗נוּ לָֽרְוָיָֽה׃

You have caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And You bring us out to a watered place.

13 אָבֹ֣וא בֵיתְךָ֣ בְעֹולֹ֑ות אֲשַׁלֵּ֖ם לְךָ֣ נְדָרָֽי׃

I enter Your house with burnt-offerings, I complete my vows to You,

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

For my lips were opened, And my mouth spoke in my distress:

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

“I offer to You burnt-offerings of fatlings, With incense of rams, I prepare a bullock with male goats.” (Selah)

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

Come, hear, all you who fear God, And I recount what He did for my soul.

17 אֵלָ֥יו פִּֽי־קָרָ֑אתִי וְ֝רֹומַ֗ם תַּ֣חַת לְשֹׁונִֽי׃

I have called to Him [with] my mouth, And exaltation [is] under my tongue.

18 אָ֭וֶן אִם־רָאִ֣יתִי בְלִבִּ֑י לֹ֖א יִשְׁמַ֣ע ׀ אֲדֹנָֽי׃

Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord does not hear.

19 אָ֭כֵן שָׁמַ֣ע אֱלֹהִ֑ים הִ֝קְשִׁ֗יב בְּקֹ֣ול תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃

But God has heard, He has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20 בָּר֥וּךְ אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר לֹֽא־הֵסִ֘יר תְּפִלָּתִ֥י וְ֝חַסְדֹּ֗ו מֵאִתִּֽי׃

Blessed [is] God, Who has not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, from me!
