< תְהִלִּים 97 >
יְהוָ֣ה מָ֭לָךְ תָּגֵ֣ל הָאָ֑רֶץ יִ֝שְׂמְח֗וּ אִיִּ֥ים רַבִּֽים׃ | 1 |
The Lord reigneth: let the earth be glad; let the multitude of isles rejoice.
עָנָ֣ן וַעֲרָפֶ֣ל סְבִיבָ֑יו צֶ֥דֶק וּ֝מִשְׁפָּ֗ט מְכֹ֣ון כִּסְאֹֽו׃ | 2 |
Clouds and thick darkness are round about him: righteousness and justice are the support of his throne.
אֵ֭שׁ לְפָנָ֣יו תֵּלֵ֑ךְ וּתְלַהֵ֖ט סָבִ֣יב צָרָֽיו׃ | 3 |
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up round about his adversaries.
הֵאִ֣ירוּ בְרָקָ֣יו תֵּבֵ֑ל רָאֲתָ֖ה וַתָּחֵ֣ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 4 |
His lightnings give light to the world: the earth seeth it, and trembleth.
הָרִ֗ים כַּדֹּונַ֗ג נָ֭מַסּוּ מִלִּפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה מִ֝לִּפְנֵ֗י אֲדֹ֣ון כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 5 |
The mountains melt away like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
הִגִּ֣ידוּ הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם צִדְקֹ֑ו וְרָא֖וּ כָל־הָעַמִּ֣ים כְּבֹודֹֽו׃ | 6 |
The heavens tell of his righteousness, and all the people his glory.
יֵבֹ֤שׁוּ ׀ כָּל־עֹ֬בְדֵי פֶ֗סֶל הַמִּֽתְהַלְלִ֥ים בָּאֱלִילִ֑ים הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ־לֹ֝ו כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 7 |
Made ashamed shall be all that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: unto him bow down all the gods.
שָׁמְעָ֬ה וַתִּשְׂמַ֨ח ׀ צִיֹּ֗ון וַ֭תָּגֵלְנָה בְּנֹ֣ות יְהוּדָ֑ה לְמַ֖עַן מִשְׁפָּטֶ֣יךָ יְהוָֽה׃ | 8 |
Zion heareth it, and rejoiceth; and glad are the daughters of Judah, because of thy decrees, O Lord.
כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה עֶלְיֹ֥ון עַל־כָּל־הָאָ֑רֶץ מְאֹ֥ד נַ֝עֲלֵ֗יתָ עַל־כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 9 |
For thou, O Lord, art the most high above all the earth: thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
אֹהֲבֵ֥י יְהוָ֗ה שִׂנְא֫וּ רָ֥ע שֹׁ֭מֵר נַפְשֹׁ֣ות חֲסִידָ֑יו מִיַּ֥ד רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יַצִּילֵֽם׃ | 10 |
Ye that love the Lord, hate ye the evil: he preserveth the souls of his pious ones; out of the hand of the wicked he ever delivereth them.
אֹ֖ור זָרֻ֣עַ לַצַּדִּ֑יק וּֽלְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵ֥ב שִׂמְחָֽה׃ | 11 |
Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
שִׂמְח֣וּ צַ֭דִּיקִים בַּֽיהוָ֑ה וְ֝הֹוד֗וּ לְזֵ֣כֶר קָדְשֹֽׁו׃ | 12 |
Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, and give thanks to his holy memorial.
