דברי הימים א 16
| וַיָּבִיאוּ אֶת־אֲרוֹן הֽ͏ָאֱלֹהִים וַיַּצִּיגוּ אֹתוֹ בְּתוֹךְ הָאֹהֶל אֲשֶׁר נָֽטָה־לוֹ דָּוִיד וַיַּקְרִיבוּ עֹלוֹת וּשְׁלָמִים לִפְנֵי הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 1 |
So they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it; and they offered whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings before God.
| וַיְכַל דָּוִיד מֵהַעֲלוֹת הָעֹלָה וְהַשְּׁלָמִים וַיְבָרֶךְ אֶת־הָעָם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃ | 2 |
And David finished offering up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
| וַיְחַלֵּק לְכָל־אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵאִישׁ וְעַד־אִשָּׁה לְאִישׁ כִּכַּר־לֶחֶם וְאֶשְׁפָּר וַאֲשִׁישָֽׁה׃ | 3 |
And he divided to every man of Israel (both men and women), to [every] man one baker's loaf, and a cake.
| וַיִּתֵּן לִפְנֵי אֲרוֹן יְהוָה מִן־הַלְוִיִּם מְשָׁרְתִים וּלְהַזְכִּיר וּלְהוֹדוֹת וּלְהַלֵּל לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 4 |
And he appointed before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, Levites to minister [and] lift up the voice, and to give thanks and praise the Lord God of Israel:
| אָסָף הָרֹאשׁ וּמִשְׁנֵהוּ זְכַרְיָה יְעִיאֵל וּשְׁמִֽירָמוֹת וִֽיחִיאֵל וּמַתִּתְיָה וֶאֱלִיאָב וּבְנָיָהוּ וְעֹבֵד אֱדֹם וֽ͏ִיעִיאֵל בִּכְלֵי נְבָלִים וּבְכִנֹּרוֹת וְאָסָף בַּֽמְצִלְתַּיִם מַשְׁמִֽיעַ׃ | 5 |
Asaph [was] the chief, and next to him Zacharias, Jeiel, Semiramoth, and Jeiel, Mattathias, Eliab, and Banaeas, and Abdedom: and Jeiel sounding with musical instruments, lutes [and] harps, and Asaph with cymbals:
| וּבְנָיָהוּ וְיַחֲזִיאֵל הַכֹּהֲנִים בַּחֲצֹצְרוֹת תָּמִיד לִפְנֵי אֲרוֹן בְּרִית־הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 6 |
and Banaeas and Oziel the priests [sounding] continually with trumpets before the ark of the covenant of God in that day.
| בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָז נָתַן דָּוִיד בָּרֹאשׁ לְהֹדוֹת לַיהוָה בְּיַד־אָסָף וְאֶחָֽיו׃ | 7 |
Then David first gave orders to praise the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
| הוֹדוּ לַֽיהוָה קִרְאוּ בִשְׁמוֹ הוֹדִיעוּ בָעַמִּים עֲלִילֹתָֽיו׃ | 8 |
Song. Give thanks to the Lord, call upon him by his name, make known his designs among the people.
| שִׁירוּ לוֹ זַמְּרוּ־לוֹ שִׂיחוּ בְּכָל־נִפְלְאֹתָֽיו׃ | 9 |
Sing [songs] to him, and sing hymns to him, relate to all [people] his wonderful deeds, which the Lord has wrought.
| הִֽתְהֽ͏ַלְלוּ בְּשֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ יִשְׂמַח לֵב מְבַקְשֵׁי יְהוָֽה׃ | 10 |
Praise his holy name, the heart that seeks his pleasure shall rejoice.
| דִּרְשׁוּ יְהוָה וְעֻזּוֹ בַּקְּשׁוּ פָנָיו תָּמִֽיד׃ | 11 |
Seek the Lord and be strong, seek his face continually.
| זִכְרוּ נִפְלְאֹתָיו אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה מֹפְתָיו וּמִשְׁפְּטֵי־פִֽיהוּ׃ | 12 |
Remember his wonderful works which he has wrought, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
| זֶרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל עַבְדּוֹ בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב בְּחִירָֽיו׃ | 13 |
[you] seed of Israel his servants, [you] seed of Jacob his chosen ones.
| הוּא יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ בְּכָל־הָאָרֶץ מִשְׁפָּטָֽיו׃ | 14 |
He [is] the Lord our God; his judgments [are] in all the earth.
| זִכְרוּ לְעוֹלָם בְּרִיתוֹ דָּבָר צִוָּה לְאֶלֶף דּֽוֹר׃ | 15 |
Let us remember his covenant for ever, his word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
| אֲשֶׁר כָּרַת אֶת־אַבְרָהָם וּשְׁבוּעָתוֹ לְיִצְחָֽק׃ | 16 |
which he covenanted with Abraham, and his oath [sworn] to Isaac.
| וַיַּעֲמִידֶהָ לְיַעֲקֹב לְחֹק לְיִשְׂרָאֵל בְּרִית עוֹלָֽם׃ | 17 |
He confirmed it to Jacob for an ordinance, to Israel [as] an everlasting covenant,
| לֵאמֹר לְךָ אֶתֵּן אֶֽרֶץ־כְּנָעַן חֶבֶל נַחֲלַתְכֶֽם׃ | 18 |
saying, To you will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
| בִּֽהְיֽוֹתְכֶם מְתֵי מִסְפָּר כִּמְעַט וְגָרִים בָּֽהּ׃ | 19 |
when they were few in number, when they were but little, and lived as strangers in it;
| וַיִּֽתְהַלְּכוּ מִגּוֹי אֶל־גּוֹי וּמִמַּמְלָכָה אֶל־עַם אַחֵֽר׃ | 20 |
and went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
| לֹא־הִנִּיחַ לְאִישׁ לְעָשְׁקָם וַיּוֹכַח עֲלֵיהֶם מְלָכִֽים׃ | 21 |
He suffered not a man to oppress them, and he reproved kings for their sakes,
| אַֽל־תִּגְּעוּ בִּמְשִׁיחָי וּבִנְבִיאַי אַל־תָּרֵֽעוּ׃ | 22 |
saying, Touch not my anointed ones, and deal not wrongfully with my prophets.
| שִׁירוּ לַֽיהוָה כָּל־הָאָרֶץ בַּשְּׂרוּ מִיּֽוֹם־אֶל־יוֹם יְשׁוּעָתֽוֹ׃ | 23 |
Sing you to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim his salvation from day to day.
| סַפְּרוּ בַגּוֹיִם אֶת־כְּבוֹדוֹ בְּכָל־הָעַמִּים נִפְלְאֹתָֽיו׃ | 24 |
Declare among the nations his glory, his wondrous deeds among all peoples.
| כִּי גָדוֹל יְהוָה וּמְהֻלָּל מְאֹד וְנוֹרָא הוּא עַל־כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 25 |
For the Lord [is] great, and greatly to be praised: he [is] to be feared above all gods.
| כִּי כָּל־אֱלֹהֵי הָעַמִּים אֱלִילִים וַיהוָה שָׁמַיִם עָשָֽׂה׃ | 26 |
For all the gods of the nations [are] idols; but our God made the heavens.
| הוֹד וְהָדָר לְפָנָיו עֹז וְחֶדְוָה בִּמְקֹמֽוֹ׃ | 27 |
Glory and praise [are] in his presence; strength and rejoicing [are] in his place.
| הָבוּ לַֽיהוָה מִשְׁפְּחוֹת עַמִּים הָבוּ לַיהוָה כָּבוֹד וָעֹֽז׃ | 28 |
Give to the Lord, you families of the nations, give to the Lord glory and strength.
| הָבוּ לַיהוָה כְּבוֹד שְׁמוֹ שְׂאוּ מִנְחָה וּבֹאוּ לְפָנָיו הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַיהוָה בְּהַדְרַת־קֹֽדֶשׁ׃ | 29 |
Give to the Lord the glory [belonging] to his name: take gifts and offer [them] before him; and worship the Lord in his holy courts.
| חִילוּ מִלְּפָנָיו כָּל־הָאָרֶץ אַף־תִּכּוֹן תֵּבֵל בַּל־תִּמּֽוֹט׃ | 30 |
Let the whole earth fear before him; let the earth be established, and not be moved.
| יִשְׂמְחוּ הַשָּׁמַיִם וְתָגֵל הָאָרֶץ וְיֹאמְרוּ בַגּוֹיִם יְהוָה מָלָֽךְ׃ | 31 |
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigns.
| יִרְעַם הַיָּם וּמְלוֹאוֹ יַעֲלֹץ הַשָּׂדֶה וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר־בּֽוֹ׃ | 32 |
The sea with its fullness shall resound and the tree of the field, and all things in it.
| אָז יְרַנְּנוּ עֲצֵי הַיָּעַר מִלִּפְנֵי יְהוָה כִּי־בָא לִשְׁפּוֹט אֶת־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 33 |
Then shall the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord, for he is come to judge the earth.
| הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ | 34 |
Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [is] for ever.
| וְאִמְרוּ הוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֵנוּ וְקַבְּצֵנוּ וְהַצִּילֵנוּ מִן־הַגּוֹיִם לְהֹדוֹת לְשֵׁם קָדְשֶׁךָ לְהִשְׁתַּבֵּחַ בִּתְהִלָּתֶֽךָ׃ | 35 |
And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us, and rescue us from among the heathen, that we may praise your holy name, and glory in your praises.
| בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן־הָעוֹלָם וְעַד הָעֹלָם וַיֹּאמְרוּ כָל־הָעָם אָמֵן וְהַלֵּל לַֽיהוָֽה׃ | 36 |
Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting and to everlasting: And all the people shall say, Amen. So they praised the Lord.
| וַיַּֽעֲזָב־שָׁם לִפְנֵי אֲרוֹן בְּרִית־יְהוָה לְאָסָף וּלְאֶחָיו לְשָׁרֵת לִפְנֵי הָאָרוֹן תָּמִיד לִדְבַר־יוֹם בְּיוֹמֽוֹ׃ | 37 |
And they left there Asaph and his brethren before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to minister before the ark continually, according to the service of each day: from day to day.
| וְעֹבֵד אֱדֹם וַאֲחֵיהֶם שִׁשִּׁים וּשְׁמוֹנָה וְעֹבֵד אֱדֹם בֶּן־יְדִיתוּן וְחֹסָה לְשֹׁעֲרִֽים׃ | 38 |
And Abdedom and his brethren [were] sixty and eight; and Abdedom the son of Idithun, and Osa, [were] to be doorkeepers.
| וְאֵת ׀ צָדוֹק הַכֹּהֵן וְאֶחָיו הַכֹּהֲנִים לִפְנֵי מִשְׁכַּן יְהוָה בַּבָּמָה אֲשֶׁר בְּגִבְעֽוֹן׃ | 39 |
And [they appointed] Sadoc the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place in Gabaon,
| לֽ͏ְהַעֲלוֹת עֹלוֹת לַיהוָה עַל־מִזְבַּח הָעֹלָה תָּמִיד לַבֹּקֶר וְלָעָרֶב וּלְכָל־הַכָּתוּב בְּתוֹרַת יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 40 |
to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and according to all things written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded the children of Israel by Moses the servant of God.
| וְעִמָּהֶם הֵימָן וִֽידוּתוּן וּשְׁאָר הַבְּרוּרִים אֲשֶׁר נִקְּבוּ בְּשֵׁמוֹת לְהֹדוֹת לַֽיהוָה כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ | 41 |
And with him [were] Aeman and Idithun, and the rest chosen out by name to praise the Lord, for his mercy [endures] for ever.
| וְעִמָּהֶם הֵימָן וִֽידוּתוּן חֲצֹצְרוֹת וּמְצִלְתַּיִם לְמַשְׁמִיעִים וּכְלֵי שִׁיר הָאֱלֹהִים וּבְנֵי יְדוּתוּן לַשָּֽׁעַר׃ | 42 |
And with them [there were] trumpets and cymbals to sound aloud, and musical instruments for the songs of God: and the sons of Idithun [were] at the gate.
| וַיֵּלְכוּ כָל־הָעָם אִישׁ לְבֵיתוֹ וַיִּסֹּב דָּוִיד לְבָרֵךְ אֶת־בֵּיתֽוֹ׃ | 43 |
And all the people went every one to his home: and David returned to bless his house.
