תהילים 140
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ חַלְּצֵנִי יְהוָה מֵאָדָם רָע מֵאִישׁ חֲמָסִים תִּנְצְרֵֽנִי׃ | 1 |
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Deliver me, O LORD! from the evil man, Save me from the man of violence,
| אֲשֶׁר חָשְׁבוּ רָעוֹת בְּלֵב כָּל־יוֹם יָגוּרוּ מִלְחָמֽוֹת׃ | 2 |
Who meditate mischief in their heart, And daily stir up war!
| שָֽׁנֲנוּ לְשׁוֹנָם כְּֽמוֹ־נָחָשׁ חֲמַת עַכְשׁוּב תַּחַת שְׂפָתֵימוֹ סֶֽלָה׃ | 3 |
They sharpen their tongues like a serpent; The poison of the adder is under their lips. (Pause)
| שָׁמְרֵנִי יְהוָה ׀ מִידֵי רָשָׁע מֵאִישׁ חֲמָסִים תִּנְצְרֵנִי אֲשֶׁר חָשְׁבוּ לִדְחוֹת פְּעָמָֽי׃ | 4 |
Defend me, O LORD! from the hands of the wicked, Preserve me from the man of violence, Who have purposed to cause my fall! (Pause)
| טָֽמְנֽוּ־גֵאִים ׀ פַּח לִי וַחֲבָלִים פָּרְשׂוּ רֶשֶׁת לְיַד־מַעְגָּל מֹקְשִׁים שָֽׁתוּ־לִי סֶֽלָה׃ | 5 |
The proud have hidden snares and cords for me; They have spread a net by the way-side; They have set traps for me.
| אָמַרְתִּי לַיהוָה אֵלִי אָתָּה הַאֲזִינָה יְהוָה קוֹל תַּחֲנוּנָֽי׃ | 6 |
I say to Jehovah, Thou art my God; Hear, O Jehovah! the voice of my supplication!
| יְהֹוִה אֲדֹנָי עֹז יְשׁוּעָתִי סַכֹּתָה לְרֹאשִׁי בְּיוֹם נָֽשֶׁק׃ | 7 |
The Lord Jehovah is my saving strength: Thou shelterest my head in the day of battle!
| אַל־תִּתֵּן יְהוָה מַאֲוַיֵּי רָשָׁע זְמָמוֹ אַל־תָּפֵק יָרוּמוּ סֶֽלָה׃ | 8 |
Grant not, O LORD! the desires of the wicked; Let not their devices prosper; Let them not exalt themselves!
| רֹאשׁ מְסִבָּי עֲמַל שְׂפָתֵימוֹ יכסומו יְכַסֵּֽמוֹ׃ | 9 |
As for the heads of those who encompass me, Let the mischief of their own lips cover them!
| ימיטו יִמּוֹטוּ עֲלֵיהֶם גֶּֽחָלִים בָּאֵשׁ יַפִּלֵם בְּמַהֲמֹרוֹת בַּֽל־יָקֽוּמוּ׃ | 10 |
Let burning coals fall upon them; May they be cast into the fire, And into deep waters from which they shall not arise!
| אִישׁ לָשׁוֹן בַּל־יִכּוֹן בָּאָרֶץ אִישׁ־חָמָס רָע יְצוּדֶנּוּ לְמַדְחֵפֹֽת׃ | 11 |
The slanderer shall not be established upon the earth; Evil shall pursue the violent man to destruction.
| ידעת יָדַעְתִּי כִּֽי־יַעֲשֶׂה יְהוָה דִּין עָנִי מִשְׁפַּט אֶבְיֹנִֽים׃ | 12 |
I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, And the right of the poor.
| אַךְ צַדִּיקִים יוֹדוּ לִשְׁמֶךָ יֵשְׁבוּ יְשָׁרִים אֶת־פָּנֶֽיךָ׃ | 13 |
Yea, the righteous shall praise thy name; The upright shall dwell in thy presence!
