< תְהִלִּים 81 >
לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ ׀ עַֽל־הַגִּתִּ֬ית לְאָסָֽף׃ הַ֭רְנִינוּ לֵאלֹהִ֣ים עוּזֵּ֑נוּ הָ֝רִ֗יעוּ לֵאלֹהֵ֥י יַעֲקֹֽב׃ | 1 |
TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. BY ASAPH. Cry aloud to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob.
שְֽׂאוּ־זִ֭מְרָה וּתְנוּ־תֹ֑ף כִּנֹּ֖ור נָעִ֣ים עִם־נָֽבֶל׃ | 2 |
Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp with stringed instrument.
תִּקְע֣וּ בַחֹ֣דֶשׁ שֹׁופָ֑ר בַּ֝כֵּ֗סֶה לְיֹ֣ום חַגֵּֽנוּ׃ | 3 |
Blow a horn in the month, In the new moon, at the day of our festival,
כִּ֤י חֹ֣ק לְיִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל ה֑וּא מִ֝שְׁפָּ֗ט לֵאלֹהֵ֥י יַעֲקֹֽב׃ | 4 |
For it [is] a statute to Israel, An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
עֵ֤דוּת ׀ בִּֽיהֹ֘וסֵ֤ף שָׂמֹ֗ו בְּ֭צֵאתֹו עַל־אֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם שְׂפַ֖ת לֹא־יָדַ֣עְתִּי אֶשְׁמָֽע׃ | 5 |
He has placed it—a testimony on Joseph, In his going forth over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known—I hear.
הֲסִירֹ֣ותִי מִסֵּ֣בֶל שִׁכְמֹ֑ו כַּ֝פָּ֗יו מִדּ֥וּד תַּעֲבֹֽרְנָה׃ | 6 |
I turned aside his shoulder from the burden, His hands pass over from the basket.
בַּצָּרָ֥ה קָרָ֗אתָ וָאֲחַ֫לְּצֶ֥ךָּ אֶ֭עֶנְךָ בְּסֵ֣תֶר רַ֑עַם אֶבְחָֽנְךָ֨ עַל־מֵ֖י מְרִיבָ֣ה סֶֽלָה׃ | 7 |
In distress you have called and I deliver you, I answer you in the secret place of thunder, I try you by the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
שְׁמַ֣ע עַ֭מִּי וְאָעִ֣ידָה בָּ֑ךְ יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל אִם־תִּֽשְׁמַֽע־לִֽי׃ | 8 |
Hear, O My people, and I testify to you, O Israel, if you listen to me:
לֹֽא־יִהְיֶ֣ה בְ֭ךָ אֵ֣ל זָ֑ר וְלֹ֥א תִ֝שְׁתַּחֲוֶ֗ה לְאֵ֣ל נֵכָֽר׃ | 9 |
There is not in you a strange god, And you do not bow yourself to a strange god.
אָנֹכִ֨י ׀ יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ הַֽ֭מַּעַלְךָ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם הַרְחֶב־פִּ֝֗יךָ וַאֲמַלְאֵֽהוּ׃ | 10 |
I [am] your God YHWH, Who brings you up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge your mouth, and I fill it.
וְלֹא־שָׁמַ֣ע עַמִּ֣י לְקֹולִ֑י וְ֝יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל לֹא־אָ֥בָה לִֽי׃ | 11 |
But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel has not consented to Me.
וָֽ֭אֲשַׁלְּחֵהוּ בִּשְׁרִיר֣וּת לִבָּ֑ם יֵ֝לְכ֗וּ בְּֽמֹועֲצֹותֵיהֶֽם׃ | 12 |
And I send them away in the enmity of their heart, They walk in their own counsels.
ל֗וּ עַ֭מִּי שֹׁמֵ֣עַֽ לִ֑י יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל בִּדְרָכַ֥י יְהַלֵּֽכוּ׃ | 13 |
O that My people were listening to Me, Israel would walk in My ways.
כִּ֭מְעַט אֹויְבֵיהֶ֣ם אַכְנִ֑יעַ וְעַ֥ל צָ֝רֵיהֶ֗ם אָשִׁ֥יב יָדִֽי׃ | 14 |
As a little thing I cause their enemies to bow, And I turn back My hand against their adversaries,
מְשַׂנְאֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה יְכַֽחֲשׁוּ־לֹ֑ו וִיהִ֖י עִתָּ֣ם לְעֹולָֽם׃ | 15 |
Those hating YHWH should have feigned [obedience] to Him, And their time would last for all time.
וֽ͏ַ֭יַּאֲכִילֵהוּ מֵחֵ֣לֶב חִטָּ֑ה וּ֝מִצּ֗וּר דְּבַ֣שׁ אַשְׂבִּיעֶֽךָ׃ | 16 |
He causes him to eat of the fat of wheat, And I satisfy you [with] honey from a rock!
