< תְהִלִּים 91 >
יֹ֭שֵׁב בְּסֵ֣תֶר עֶלְיֹ֑ון בְּצֵ֥ל שַׁ֝דַּ֗י יִתְלֹונָֽן׃ | 1 |
He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,
אֹמַ֗ר לַֽ֭יהוָה מַחְסִ֣י וּמְצוּדָתִ֑י אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י אֶבְטַח־בֹּֽו׃ | 2 |
He is saying of Jehovah, 'My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,'
כִּ֤י ה֣וּא יַ֭צִּֽילְךָ מִפַּ֥ח יָק֗וּשׁ מִדֶּ֥בֶר הַוֹּֽות׃ | 3 |
For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
בְּאֶבְרָתֹ֨ו ׀ יָ֣סֶךְ לָ֭ךְ וְתַֽחַת־כְּנָפָ֣יו תֶּחְסֶ֑ה צִנָּ֖ה וְֽסֹחֵרָ֣ה אֲמִתֹּֽו׃ | 4 |
With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.
לֹא־תִ֭ירָא מִפַּ֣חַד לָ֑יְלָה מֵ֝חֵ֗ץ יָע֥וּף יֹומָֽם׃ | 5 |
Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,
מִ֭דֶּבֶר בָּאֹ֣פֶל יַהֲלֹ֑ךְ מִ֝קֶּ֗טֶב יָשׁ֥וּד צָהֳרָֽיִם׃ | 6 |
Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,
יִפֹּ֤ל מִצִּדְּךָ֨ ׀ אֶ֗לֶף וּרְבָבָ֥ה מִימִינֶ֑ךָ אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ לֹ֣א יִגָּֽשׁ׃ | 7 |
There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.
רַ֭ק בְּעֵינֶ֣יךָ תַבִּ֑יט וְשִׁלֻּמַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תִּרְאֶֽה׃ | 8 |
But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,
כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה יְהוָ֣ה מַחְסִ֑י עֶ֝לְיֹ֗ון שַׂ֣מְתָּ מְעֹונֶֽךָ׃ | 9 |
(For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge, ) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.
לֹֽא־תְאֻנֶּ֣ה אֵלֶ֣יךָ רָעָ֑ה וְ֝נֶ֗גַע לֹא־יִקְרַ֥ב בְּאָהֳלֶֽךָ׃ | 10 |
Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,
כִּ֣י מַ֭לְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה־לָּ֑ךְ לִ֝שְׁמָרְךָ֗ בְּכָל־דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃ | 11 |
For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in all thy ways,
עַל־כַּפַּ֥יִם יִשָּׂא֑וּנְךָ פֶּן־תִּגֹּ֖ף בָּאֶ֣בֶן רַגְלֶֽךָ׃ | 12 |
On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a stone thy foot.
עַל־שַׁ֣חַל וָפֶ֣תֶן תִּדְרֹ֑ךְ תִּרְמֹ֖ס כְּפִ֣יר וְתַנִּֽין׃ | 13 |
On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.
כִּ֤י בִ֣י חָ֭שַׁק וַאֲפַלְּטֵ֑הוּ אֲ֝שַׂגְּבֵ֗הוּ כִּֽי־יָדַ֥ע שְׁמִֽי׃ | 14 |
Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him — I set him on high, Because he hath known My name.
יִקְרָאֵ֨נִי ׀ וְֽאֶעֱנֵ֗הוּ עִמֹּֽו־אָנֹכִ֥י בְצָרָ֑ה אֲ֝חַלְּצֵ֗הוּ וַֽאֲכַבְּדֵֽהוּ׃ | 15 |
He doth call Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honour him.
אֹ֣רֶךְ יָ֭מִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵ֑הוּ וְ֝אַרְאֵ֗הוּ בִּֽישׁוּעָתִֽי׃ | 16 |
With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
