< תְהִלִּים 7 >
שִׁגָּיֹ֗ון לְדָ֫וִ֥ד אֲשֶׁר־שָׁ֥ר לַיהוָ֑ה עַל־דִּבְרֵי־כ֝֗וּשׁ בֶּן־יְמִינִֽי׃ יְהוָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהַי בְּךָ֣ חָסִ֑יתִי הֹושִׁיעֵ֥נִי מִכָּל־רֹ֝דְפַ֗י וְהַצִּילֵֽנִי׃ | 1 |
Shiggaion of David, which he sang to Jehovah, concerning the words of Cush the Benjaminite. Jehovah my God, in thee have I trusted: save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me;
פֶּן־יִטְרֹ֣ף כְּאַרְיֵ֣ה נַפְשִׁ֑י פֹּ֝רֵ֗ק וְאֵ֣ין מַצִּֽיל׃ | 2 |
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, crushing it while there is no deliverer.
יְהוָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהַי אִם־עָשִׂ֣יתִי זֹ֑את אִֽם־יֶשׁ־עָ֥וֶל בְּכַפָּֽי׃ | 3 |
Jehovah my God, if I have done this, if there be iniquity in my hands;
אִם־גָּ֭מַלְתִּי שֹֽׁולְמִ֥י רָ֑ע וָאֲחַלְּצָ֖ה צֹורְרִ֣י רֵיקָֽם׃ | 4 |
If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (indeed I have freed him that without cause oppressed me; )
יִֽרַדֹּ֥ף אֹויֵ֨ב ׀ נַפְשִׁ֡י וְיַשֵּׂ֗ג וְיִרְמֹ֣ס לָאָ֣רֶץ חַיָּ֑י וּכְבֹודִ֓י ׀ לֶעָפָ֖ר יַשְׁכֵּ֣ן סֶֽלָה׃ | 5 |
Let the enemy pursue after my soul, and take [it], and let him tread down my life to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
ק֘וּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֨ה ׀ בְּאַפֶּ֗ךָ הִ֭נָּשֵׂא בְּעַבְרֹ֣ות צֹורְרָ֑י וְע֥וּרָה אֵ֝לַ֗י מִשְׁפָּ֥ט צִוִּֽיתָ׃ | 6 |
Arise, Jehovah, in thine anger; lift thyself up against the raging of mine oppressors, and awake for me: thou hast commanded judgment.
וַעֲדַ֣ת לְ֭אֻמִּים תְּסֹובְבֶ֑ךָּ וְ֝עָלֶ֗יהָ לַמָּרֹ֥ום שֽׁוּבָה׃ | 7 |
And the assembly of the peoples shall encompass thee; and for their sakes return thou on high.
יְהוָה֮ יָדִ֪ין עַ֫מִּ֥ים שָׁפְטֵ֥נִי יְהוָ֑ה כְּצִדְקִ֖י וּכְתֻמִּ֣י עָלָֽי׃ | 8 |
Jehovah shall minister judgment to the peoples. Judge me, Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity which is in me.
יִגְמָר־נָ֬א רַ֨ע ׀ רְשָׁעִים֮ וּתְכֹונֵ֪ן צַ֫דִּ֥יק וּבֹחֵ֣ן לִ֭בֹּ֗ות וּכְלָיֹ֗ות אֱלֹהִ֥ים צַדּֽ͏ִיק׃ | 9 |
Oh let the wrong of the wicked come to an end, and establish thou the righteous [man]; even thou that triest the hearts and reins, the righteous God.
מָֽגִנִּ֥י עַל־אֱלֹהִ֑ים מֹ֝ושִׁ֗יעַ יִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ | 10 |
My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart.
אֱ֭לֹהִים שֹׁופֵ֣ט צַדִּ֑יק וְ֝אֵ֗ל זֹעֵ֥ם בְּכָל־יֹֽום׃ | 11 |
God is a righteous judge, and a God who is indignant all the day.
אִם־לֹ֣א יָ֭שׁוּב חַרְבֹּ֣ו יִלְטֹ֑ושׁ קַשְׁתֹּ֥ו דָ֝רַ֗ךְ וַֽיְכֹונְנֶֽהָ׃ | 12 |
If one turn not, he will sharpen his sword; he hath bent his bow and made it ready,
וְ֭לֹו הֵכִ֣ין כְּלֵי־מָ֑וֶת חִ֝צָּ֗יו לְֽדֹלְקִ֥ים יִפְעָֽל׃ | 13 |
And he hath prepared for him instruments of death; his arrows hath he made burning.
הִנֵּ֥ה יְחַבֶּל־אָ֑וֶן וְהָרָ֥ה עָ֝מָ֗ל וְיָ֣לַד שָֽׁקֶר׃ | 14 |
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, yea, he hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood:
בֹּ֣ור כָּ֭רָֽה וַֽיַּחְפְּרֵ֑הוּ וַ֝יִּפֹּ֗ל בְּשַׁ֣חַת יִפְעָֽל׃ | 15 |
He digged a pit, and hollowed it out, and is fallen into the hole that he made.
יָשׁ֣וּב עֲמָלֹ֣ו בְרֹאשֹׁ֑ו וְעַ֥ל קָ֝דְקֳדֹ֗ו חֲמָסֹ֥ו יֵרֵֽד׃ | 16 |
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
אֹודֶ֣ה יְהוָ֣ה כְּצִדְקֹ֑ו וַ֝אֲזַמְּרָ֗ה שֵֽׁם־יְהוָ֥ה עֶלְיֹֽון׃ | 17 |
I will praise Jehovah according to his righteousness, and will sing forth the name of Jehovah the Most High.
