תְהִלִּים 89
| מַ֝שְׂכִּ֗יל לְאֵיתָ֥ן הָֽאֶזְרָחִֽי׃ חַֽסְדֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה עֹולָ֣ם אָשִׁ֑ירָה לְדֹ֥ר וָדֹ֓ר ׀ אֹודִ֖יעַ אֱמוּנָתְךָ֣ בְּפִֽי׃ | 1 |
Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
| כִּֽי־אָמַ֗רְתִּי עֹ֭ולָם חֶ֣סֶד יִבָּנֶ֑ה שָׁמַ֓יִם ׀ תָּכִ֖ן אֱמוּנָתְךָ֣ בָהֶֽם׃ | 2 |
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever; thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
| כָּרַ֣תִּֽי בְ֭רִית לִבְחִירִ֑י נִ֝שְׁבַּ֗עְתִּי לְדָוִ֥ד עַבְדִּֽי׃ | 3 |
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant;
| עַד־עֹ֭ולָם אָכִ֣ין זַרְעֶ֑ךָ וּבָנִ֨יתִי לְדֹר־וָדֹ֖ור כִּסְאֲךָ֣ סֶֽלָה׃ | 4 |
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Selah)
| וְיֹ֘וד֤וּ שָׁמַ֣יִם פִּלְאֲךָ֣ יְהוָ֑ה אַף־אֱ֝מֽוּנָתְךָ֗ בִּקְהַ֥ל קְדֹשִֽׁים׃ | 5 |
And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD; thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
| כִּ֤י מִ֣י בַ֭שַּׁחַק יַעֲרֹ֣ךְ לַיהוָ֑ה יִדְמֶ֥ה לַ֝יהוָ֗ה בִּבְנֵ֥י אֵלִים׃ | 6 |
For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty is like unto the LORD,
| אֵ֣ל נַ֭עֲרָץ בְּסֹוד־קְדֹשִׁ֣ים רַבָּ֑ה וְ֝נֹורָ֗א עַל־כָּל־סְבִיבָֽיו׃ | 7 |
A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, and to be feared above all them that are round about him?
| יְהוָ֤ה ׀ אֱלֹ֘הֵ֤י צְבָאֹ֗ות מִֽי־כָֽמֹ֖וךָ חֲסִ֥ין ׀ יָ֑הּ וֶ֝אֱמֽוּנָתְךָ֗ סְבִיבֹותֶֽיךָ׃ | 8 |
O LORD God of hosts, who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O JAH? and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
| אַתָּ֣ה מֹ֭ושֵׁל בְּגֵא֣וּת הַיָּ֑ם בְּשֹׂ֥וא גַ֝לָּ֗יו אַתָּ֥ה תְשַׁבְּחֵֽם׃ | 9 |
Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
| אַתָּ֤ה דִכִּ֣אתָ כֶחָלָ֣ל רָ֑הַב בִּזְרֹ֥ועַ עֻ֝זְּךָ֗ פִּזַּ֥רְתָּ אֹויְבֶֽיךָ׃ | 10 |
Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.
| לְךָ֣ שָׁ֭מַיִם אַף־לְךָ֥ אָ֑רֶץ תֵּבֵ֥ל וּ֝מְלֹאָ֗הּ אַתָּ֥ה יְסַדְתָּֽם׃ | 11 |
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
| צָפֹ֣ון וְ֭יָמִין אַתָּ֣ה בְרָאתָ֑ם תָּבֹ֥ור וְ֝חֶרְמֹ֗ון בְּשִׁמְךָ֥ יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃ | 12 |
The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name.
| לְךָ֣ זְ֭רֹועַ עִם־גְּבוּרָ֑ה תָּעֹ֥ז יָ֝דְךָ֗ תָּר֥וּם יְמִינֶֽךָ׃ | 13 |
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
| צֶ֣דֶק וּ֭מִשְׁפָּט מְכֹ֣ון כִּסְאֶ֑ךָ חֶ֥סֶד וֶ֝אֱמֶ֗ת יְֽקַדְּמ֥וּ פָנֶֽיךָ׃ | 14 |
Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of thy throne: mercy and truth go before thy face.
| אַשְׁרֵ֣י הָ֭עָם יֹודְעֵ֣י תְרוּעָ֑ה יְ֝הוָ֗ה בְּֽאֹור־פָּנֶ֥יךָ יְהַלֵּכֽוּן׃ | 15 |
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
| בְּ֭שִׁמְךָ יְגִיל֣וּן כָּל־הַיֹּ֑ום וּבְצִדְקָתְךָ֥ יָרֽוּמוּ׃ | 16 |
In thy name do they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness are they exalted.
| כִּֽי־תִפְאֶ֣רֶת עֻזָּ֣מֹו אָ֑תָּה וּ֝בִרְצֹנְךָ֗ תָּרִים (תָּר֥וּם) קַרְנֵֽנוּ׃ | 17 |
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
| כִּ֣י לַֽ֭יהוָה מָֽגִנֵּ֑נוּ וְלִקְדֹ֖ושׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל מַלְכֵּֽנוּ׃ | 18 |
For our shield belongeth unto the LORD; and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
| אָ֤ז דִּבַּ֥רְתָּֽ־בְחָ֡זֹון לַֽחֲסִידֶ֗יךָ וַתֹּ֗אמֶר שִׁוִּ֣יתִי עֵ֭זֶר עַל־גִּבֹּ֑ור הֲרִימֹ֖ותִי בָח֣וּר מֵעָֽם׃ | 19 |
Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
| מָ֭צָאתִי דָּוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֑י בְּשֶׁ֖מֶן קָדְשִׁ֣י מְשַׁחְתִּֽיו׃ | 20 |
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
| אֲשֶׁ֣ר יָ֭דִי תִּכֹּ֣ון עִמֹּ֑ו אַף־זְרֹועִ֥י תְאַמְּצֶֽנּוּ׃ | 21 |
With whom my hand shall be established; mine arm also shall strengthen him.
| לֹֽא־יַשִּׁ֣א אֹויֵ֣ב בֹּ֑ו וּבֶן־עַ֝וְלָ֗ה לֹ֣א יְעַנֶּֽנּוּ׃ | 22 |
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
| וְכַתֹּותִ֣י מִפָּנָ֣יו צָרָ֑יו וּמְשַׂנְאָ֥יו אֶגֹּֽוף׃ | 23 |
And I will beat down his adversaries before him, and smite them that hate him.
| וֶֽאֶֽמוּנָתִ֣י וְחַסְדִּ֣י עִמֹּ֑ו וּ֝בִשְׁמִ֗י תָּר֥וּם קַרְנֹֽו׃ | 24 |
But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
| וְשַׂמְתִּ֣י בַיָּ֣ם יָדֹ֑ו וּֽבַנְּהָרֹ֥ות יְמִינֹֽו׃ | 25 |
I will set his hand also on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
| ה֣וּא יִ֭קְרָאֵנִי אָ֣בִי אָ֑תָּה אֵ֝לִ֗י וְצ֣וּר יְשׁוּעָתִֽי׃ | 26 |
He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
| אַף־אָ֭נִי בְּכֹ֣ור אֶתְּנֵ֑הוּ עֶ֝לְיֹ֗ון לְמַלְכֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃ | 27 |
I also will make him [my] firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
| לְ֭עֹולָ֗ם אֶשְׁמֹור־ (אֶשְׁמָר)־לֹ֣ו חַסְדִּ֑י וּ֝בְרִיתִ֗י נֶאֱמֶ֥נֶת לֹֽו׃ | 28 |
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
| וְשַׂמְתִּ֣י לָעַ֣ד זַרְעֹ֑ו וְ֝כִסְאֹ֗ו כִּימֵ֥י שָׁמָֽיִם׃ | 29 |
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
| אִם־יַֽעַזְב֣וּ בָ֭נָיו תֹּורָתִ֑י וּ֝בְמִשְׁפָּטַ֗י לֹ֣א יֵלֵכֽוּן׃ | 30 |
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
| אִם־חֻקֹּתַ֥י יְחַלֵּ֑לוּ וּ֝מִצְוֹתַ֗י לֹ֣א יִשְׁמֹֽרוּ׃ | 31 |
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
| וּפָקַדְתִּ֣י בְשֵׁ֣בֶט פִּשְׁעָ֑ם וּבִנְגָעִ֥ים עֲוֹנָֽם׃ | 32 |
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
| וְ֭חַסְדִּי לֹֽא־אָפִ֣יר מֵֽעִמֹּ֑ו וְלֹֽא־אֲ֝שַׁקֵּ֗ר בֶּאֱמוּנָתִֽי׃ | 33 |
But my mercy will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
| לֹא־אֲחַלֵּ֥ל בְּרִיתִ֑י וּמֹוצָ֥א שְׂ֝פָתַ֗י לֹ֣א אֲשַׁנֶּֽה׃ | 34 |
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
| אַ֭חַת נִשְׁבַּ֣עְתִּי בְקָדְשִׁ֑י אִֽם־לְדָוִ֥ד אֲכַזֵּֽב׃ | 35 |
Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David;
| זַ֭רְעֹו לְעֹולָ֣ם יִהְיֶ֑ה וְכִסְאֹ֖ו כַשֶּׁ֣מֶשׁ נֶגְדִּֽי׃ | 36 |
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
| כְּ֭יָרֵחַ יִכֹּ֣ון עֹולָ֑ם וְעֵ֥ד בַּ֝שַּׁ֗חַק נֶאֱמָ֥ן סֶֽלָה׃ | 37 |
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and [as] the faithful witness in the sky. (Selah)
| וְאַתָּ֣ה זָ֭נַחְתָּ וַתִּמְאָ֑ס הִ֝תְעַבַּ֗רְתָּ עִם־מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃ | 38 |
But thou hast cast off and rejected, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
| נֵ֭אַרְתָּה בְּרִ֣ית עַבְדֶּ֑ךָ חִלַּ֖לְתָּ לָאָ֣רֶץ נִזְרֹֽו׃ | 39 |
Thou hast abhorred the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown [even] to the ground.
| פָּרַ֥צְתָּ כָל־גְּדֵרֹתָ֑יו שַׂ֖מְתָּ מִבְצָרָ֣יו מְחִתָּה׃ | 40 |
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to rain.
| שַׁ֭סֻּהוּ כָּל־עֹ֣בְרֵי דָ֑רֶךְ הָיָ֥ה חֶ֝רְפָּ֗ה לִשְׁכֵנֽ͏ָיו׃ | 41 |
All that pass by the way spoil him: he is become a reproach to his neighbours.
| הֲ֭רִימֹותָ יְמִ֣ין צָרָ֑יו הִ֝שְׂמַ֗חְתָּ כָּל־אֹויְבָֽיו׃ | 42 |
Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
| אַף־תָּ֭שִׁיב צ֣וּר חַרְבֹּ֑ו וְלֹ֥א הֲ֝קֵימֹתֹ֗ו בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה׃ | 43 |
Yea, thou turnest back the edge his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
| הִשְׁבַּ֥תָּ מִטְּהָרֹ֑ו וְ֝כִסְאֹ֗ו לָאָ֥רֶץ מִגַּֽרְתָּה׃ | 44 |
Thou hast made his brightness to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
| הִ֭קְצַרְתָּ יְמֵ֣י עֲלוּמָ֑יו הֶֽעֱטִ֨יתָ עָלָ֖יו בּוּשָׁ֣ה סֶֽלָה׃ | 45 |
The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
| עַד־מָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תִּסָּתֵ֣ר לָנֶ֑צַח תִּבְעַ֖ר כְּמֹו־אֵ֣שׁ חֲמָתֶֽךָ׃ | 46 |
How long, O LORD, wilt thou hid thyself for ever? [how long] shall thy wrath burn like fire?
| זְכָר־אֲנִ֥י מֶה־חָ֑לֶד עַל־מַה־שָּׁ֝֗וְא בָּרָ֥אתָ כָל־בְּנֵי־אָדָֽם׃ | 47 |
O remember how short my time is: for what vanity hast thou created all the children of men!
| מִ֤י גֶ֣בֶר יִֽ֭חְיֶה וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֶה־מָּ֑וֶת יְמַלֵּ֨ט נַפְשֹׁ֖ו מִיַּד־שְׁאֹ֣ול סֶֽלָה׃ (Sheol h7585) | 48 |
What man is he that shall live and not see death, that shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
| אַיֵּ֤ה ׀ חֲסָדֶ֖יךָ הָרִאשֹׁנִ֥ים ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י נִשְׁבַּ֥עְתָּ לְ֝דָוִ֗ד בֶּאֱמוּנָתֶֽךָ׃ | 49 |
Lord, where are thy former mercies, which thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?
| זְכֹ֣ר אֲ֭דֹנָי חֶרְפַּ֣ת עֲבָדֶ֑יךָ שְׂאֵתִ֥י בְ֝חֵיקִ֗י כָּל־רַבִּ֥ים עַמִּֽים׃ | 50 |
Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty peoples:
| אֲשֶׁ֤ר חֵרְפ֖וּ אֹויְבֶ֥יךָ ׀ יְהוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר חֵ֝רְפ֗וּ עִקְּבֹ֥ות מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃ | 51 |
Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD, wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
| בָּר֖וּךְ יְהוָ֥ה לְ֝עֹולָ֗ם אָ֘מֵ֥ן ׀ וְאָמֵֽן׃ | 52 |
Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
