< תהילים 68 >
לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר שִֽׁיר׃ יָקוּם אֱלֹהִים יָפוּצוּ אוֹיְבָיו וְיָנוּסוּ מְשַׂנְאָיו מִפָּנָֽיו׃ | 1 |
To the chief music-maker. Of David. A Psalm. A Song. Let God be seen, and let his haters be put to flight; let those who are against him be turned back before him.
כְּהִנְדֹּף עָשָׁן תִּנְדֹּף כְּהִמֵּס דּוֹנַג מִפְּנֵי־אֵשׁ יֹאבְדוּ רְשָׁעִים מִפְּנֵי אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 2 |
Let them be like smoke before the driving wind; as wax turning soft before the fire, so let them come to an end before the power of God.
וְֽצַדִּיקִים יִשְׂמְחוּ יַֽעַלְצוּ לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהִים וְיָשִׂישׂוּ בְשִׂמְחָֽה׃ | 3 |
But let the upright be glad; let them have delight before God; let them be full of joy.
שִׁירוּ ׀ לֵֽאלֹהִים זַמְּרוּ שְׁמוֹ סֹלּוּ לָרֹכֵב בָּעֲרָבוֹת בְּיָהּ שְׁמוֹ וְעִלְזוּ לְפָנָֽיו׃ | 4 |
Make songs to God, make songs of praise to his name; make a way for him who comes through the waste lands; his name is Jah; be glad before him.
אֲבִי יְתוֹמִים וְדַיַּן אַלְמָנוֹת אֱלֹהִים בִּמְעוֹן קָדְשֽׁוֹ׃ | 5 |
A father to those who have no father, a judge of the widows, is God in his holy place.
אֱלֹהִים ׀ מוֹשִׁיב יְחִידִים ׀ בַּיְתָה מוֹצִיא אֲסִירִים בַּכּוֹשָׁרוֹת אַךְ סוֹרֲרִים שָׁכְנוּ צְחִיחָֽה׃ | 6 |
Those who are without friends, God puts in families; he makes free those who are in chains; but those who are turned away from him are given a dry land.
אֱֽלֹהִים בְּצֵאתְךָ לִפְנֵי עַמֶּךָ בְּצַעְדְּךָ בִֽישִׁימוֹן סֶֽלָה׃ | 7 |
O God, when you went out before your people, wandering through the waste land; (Selah)
אֶרֶץ רָעָשָׁה ׀ אַף־שָׁמַיִם נָטְפוּ מִפְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים זֶה סִינַי מִפְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 8 |
The earth was shaking and the heavens were streaming, because God was present; even Sinai itself was moved before God, the God of Israel.
גֶּשֶׁם נְדָבוֹת תָּנִיף אֱלֹהִים נַחֲלָתְךָ וְנִלְאָה אַתָּה כֽוֹנַנְתּֽ͏ָהּ׃ | 9 |
You, O God, did freely send the rain, giving strength to the weariness of your heritage.
חַיָּתְךָ יָֽשְׁבוּ־בָהּ תָּכִין בְּטוֹבָתְךָ לֶעָנִי אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 10 |
Those whose resting-place was there, even the poor, were comforted by your good things, O God.
אֲדֹנָי יִתֶּן־אֹמֶר הַֽמְבַשְּׂרוֹת צָבָא רָֽב׃ | 11 |
The Lord gives the word; great is the number of the women who make it public.
מַלְכֵי צְבָאוֹת יִדֹּדוּן יִדֹּדוּן וּנְוַת־בַּיִת תְּחַלֵּק שָׁלָֽל׃ | 12 |
Kings of armies quickly go in flight: and the women in the houses make a division of their goods.
אִֽם־תִּשְׁכְּבוּן בֵּין שְׁפַתָּיִם כַּנְפֵי יוֹנָה נֶחְפָּה בַכֶּסֶף וְאֶבְרוֹתֶיהָ בִּֽירַקְרַק חָרֽוּץ׃ | 13 |
Will you take your rest among the flocks? like the wings of a dove covered with silver, and its feathers with yellow gold.
בְּפָרֵשׂ שַׁדַּי מְלָכִים בָּהּ תַּשְׁלֵג בְּצַלְמֽוֹן׃ | 14 |
When the Most High put the kings to flight, it was as white as snow in Salmon.
הַר־אֱלֹהִים הַר־בָּשָׁן הַר גַּבְנֻנִּים הַר־בָּשָֽׁן׃ | 15 |
A hill of God is the hill of Bashan; a hill with high tops is the hill of Bashan.
לָמָּה ׀ תְּֽרַצְּדוּן הָרִים גַּבְנֻנִּים הָהָר חָמַד אֱלֹהִים לְשִׁבְתּוֹ אַף־יְהוָה יִשְׁכֹּן לָנֶֽצַח׃ | 16 |
Why are you looking with envy, you high hills, on the hill desired by God as his resting-place? truly, God will make it his house for ever.
רֶכֶב אֱלֹהִים רִבֹּתַיִם אַלְפֵי שִׁנְאָן אֲדֹנָי בָם סִינַי בַּקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ | 17 |
The war-carriage of God is among Israel's thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai to the holy place.
עָלִיתָ לַמָּרוֹם ׀ שָׁבִיתָ שֶּׁבִי לָקַחְתָּ מַתָּנוֹת בָּאָדָם וְאַף סוֹרְרִים לִשְׁכֹּן ׀ יָהּ אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 18 |
You have gone up on high, taking your prisoners with you; you have taken offerings from men; the Lord God has taken his place on the seat of his power.
בָּרוּךְ אֲדֹנָי יוֹם ׀ יוֹם יַֽעֲמָס־לָנוּ הָאֵל יְֽשׁוּעָתֵנוּ סֶֽלָה׃ | 19 |
Praise be to the Lord, who is our support day by day, even the God of our salvation. (Selah)
הָאֵל ׀ לָנוּ אֵל לְֽמוֹשָׁעוֹת וְלֵיהוִה אֲדֹנָי לַמָּוֶת תּוֹצָאֽוֹת׃ | 20 |
Our God is for us a God of salvation; his are the ways out of death.
אַךְ־אֱלֹהִים יִמְחַץ רֹאשׁ אֹיְבָיו קָדְקֹד שֵׂעָר מִתְהַלֵּךְ בַּאֲשָׁמָֽיו׃ | 21 |
The heads of the haters of God will be crushed; even the head of him who still goes on in his evil ways.
אָמַר אֲדֹנָי מִבָּשָׁן אָשִׁיב אָשִׁיב מִֽמְּצֻלוֹת יָֽם׃ | 22 |
The Lord said, I will make them come back from Bashan, and from the deep parts of the sea;
לְמַעַן ׀ תִּֽמְחַץ רַגְלְךָ בְּדָם לְשׁוֹן כְּלָבֶיךָ מֵאֹיְבִים מִנֵּֽהוּ׃ | 23 |
So that your foot may be red with blood, and the tongues of your dogs with the same.
רָאוּ הֲלִיכוֹתֶיךָ אֱלֹהִים הֲלִיכוֹת אֵלִי מַלְכִּי בַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ | 24 |
We see your going, O God: even the going of my God, my King, into the holy place.
קִדְּמוּ שָׁרִים אַחַר נֹגְנִים בְּתוֹךְ עֲלָמוֹת תּוֹפֵפֽוֹת׃ | 25 |
The makers of songs go before, the players of music come after, among the young girls playing on brass instruments.
בְּֽמַקְהֵלוֹת בָּרְכוּ אֱלֹהִים יְהוָה מִמְּקוֹר יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 26 |
Give praise to God in the great meeting; even the Lord, you who come from the fountain of Israel.
שָׁם בִּנְיָמִן ׀ צָעִיר רֹדֵם שָׂרֵי יְהוּדָה רִגְמָתָם שָׂרֵי זְבֻלוּן שָׂרֵי נַפְתָּלִֽי׃ | 27 |
There is little Benjamin ruling them, the chiefs of Judah and their army, the rulers of Zebulun and the rulers of Naphtali.
צִוָּה אֱלֹהֶיךָ עֻזֶּךָ עוּזָּה אֱלֹהִים זוּ פָּעַלְתָּ לָּֽנוּ׃ | 28 |
O God, send out your strength; the strength, O God, with which you have done great things for us,
מֵֽהֵיכָלֶךָ עַל־יְרוּשָׁלָ͏ִם לְךָ יוֹבִילוּ מְלָכִים שָֽׁי׃ | 29 |
Out of your Temple in Jerusalem.
גְּעַר חַיַּת קָנֶה עֲדַת אַבִּירִים ׀ בְּעֶגְלֵי עַמִּים מִתְרַפֵּס בְּרַצֵּי־כָסֶף בִּזַּר עַמִּים קְרָבוֹת יֶחְפָּֽצוּ׃ | 30 |
Say sharp words to the beast among the water-plants, the band of strong ones, with the lords of the peoples, put an end to the people whose delight is in war.
יֶאֱתָיוּ חַשְׁמַנִּים מִנִּי מִצְרָיִם כּוּשׁ תָּרִיץ יָדָיו לֵאלֹהִֽים׃ | 31 |
Kings will give you offerings, they will come out of Egypt; from Pathros will come offerings of silver; Ethiopia will be stretching out her hands to God.
מַמְלְכוֹת הָאָרֶץ שִׁירוּ לֵאלֹהִים זַמְּרוּ אֲדֹנָי סֶֽלָה׃ | 32 |
Make songs to God, you kingdoms of the earth; O make songs of praise to the Lord; (Selah)
לָרֹכֵב בִּשְׁמֵי שְׁמֵי־קֶדֶם הֵן יִתֵּן בְּקוֹלוֹ קוֹל עֹֽז׃ | 33 |
To him who goes or the clouds of heaven, the heaven which was from earliest times; he sends out his voice of power.
תְּנוּ עֹז לֵֽאלֹהִים עַֽל־יִשְׂרָאֵל גַּאֲוָתוֹ וְעֻזּוֹ בַּשְּׁחָקִֽים׃ | 34 |
Make clear that strength is God's: he is lifted up over Israel, and his power is in the clouds.
נוֹרָא אֱלֹהִים מִֽמִּקְדָּשֶׁיךָ אֵל יִשְׂרָאֵל הוּא נֹתֵן ׀ עֹז וְתַעֲצֻמוֹת לָעָם בָּרוּךְ אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 35 |
O God, you are to be feared in your holy place: the God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God.
