תְהִלִּים 91

1 יֹ֭שֵׁב בְּסֵ֣תֶר עֶלְיֹ֑ון בְּצֵ֥ל שַׁ֝דַּ֗י יִתְלֹונָֽן׃

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 אֹמַ֗ר לַֽ֭יהוָה מַחְסִ֣י וּמְצוּדָתִ֑י אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י אֶבְטַח־בֹּֽו׃

I say of Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress; my God, I will confide in him.

3 כִּ֤י ה֣וּא יַ֭צִּֽילְךָ מִפַּ֥ח יָק֗וּשׁ מִדֶּ֥בֶר הַוֹּֽות׃

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from the destructive pestilence.

4 בְּאֶבְרָתֹ֨ו ׀ יָ֣סֶךְ לָ֭ךְ וְתַֽחַת־כְּנָפָ֣יו תֶּחְסֶ֑ה צִנָּ֖ה וְֽסֹחֵרָ֣ה אֲמִתֹּֽו׃

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou find refuge: his truth is a shield and buckler.

5 לֹא־תִ֭ירָא מִפַּ֣חַד לָ֑יְלָה מֵ֝חֵ֗ץ יָע֥וּף יֹומָֽם׃

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, for the arrow that flieth by day,

6 מִ֭דֶּבֶר בָּאֹ֣פֶל יַהֲלֹ֑ךְ מִ֝קֶּ֗טֶב יָשׁ֥וּד צָהֳרָֽיִם׃

For the pestilence that walketh in darkness, for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7 יִפֹּ֤ל מִצִּדְּךָ֨ ׀ אֶ֗לֶף וּרְבָבָ֥ה מִימִינֶ֑ךָ אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ לֹ֣א יִגָּֽשׁ׃

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; [but] it shall not come nigh thee.

8 רַ֭ק בְּעֵינֶ֣יךָ תַבִּ֑יט וְשִׁלֻּמַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תִּרְאֶֽה׃

Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the reward of the wicked.

9 כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה יְהוָ֣ה מַחְסִ֑י עֶ֝לְיֹ֗ון שַׂ֣מְתָּ מְעֹונֶֽךָ׃

Because thou hast made Jehovah, my refuge, the Most High, thy dwelling-place,

10 לֹֽא־תְאֻנֶּ֣ה אֵלֶ֣יךָ רָעָ֑ה וְ֝נֶ֗גַע לֹא־יִקְרַ֥ב בְּאָהֳלֶֽךָ׃

There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.

11 כִּ֣י מַ֭לְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה־לָּ֑ךְ לִ֝שְׁמָרְךָ֗ בְּכָל־דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃

For he shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways:

12 עַל־כַּפַּ֥יִם יִשָּׂא֑וּנְךָ פֶּן־תִּגֹּ֖ף בָּאֶ֣בֶן רַגְלֶֽךָ׃

They shall bear thee up in [their] hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 עַל־שַׁ֣חַל וָפֶ֣תֶן תִּדְרֹ֑ךְ תִּרְמֹ֖ס כְּפִ֣יר וְתַנִּֽין׃

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and the adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under foot.

14 כִּ֤י בִ֣י חָ֭שַׁק וַאֲפַלְּטֵ֑הוּ אֲ֝שַׂגְּבֵ֗הוּ כִּֽי־יָדַ֥ע שְׁמִֽי׃

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15 יִקְרָאֵ֨נִי ׀ וְֽאֶעֱנֵ֗הוּ עִמֹּֽו־אָנֹכִ֥י בְצָרָ֑ה אֲ֝חַלְּצֵ֗הוּ וַֽאֲכַבְּדֵֽהוּ׃

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him.

16 אֹ֣רֶךְ יָ֭מִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵ֑הוּ וְ֝אַרְאֵ֗הוּ בִּֽישׁוּעָתִֽי׃

With length of days will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
