< תהילים 89 >
מַשְׂכִּיל לְאֵיתָן הָֽאֶזְרָחִֽי׃ חַֽסְדֵי יְהוָה עוֹלָם אָשִׁירָה לְדֹר וָדֹר ׀ אוֹדִיעַ אֱמוּנָתְךָ בְּפִֽי׃ | 1 |
AN INSTRUCTION OF ETHAN THE EZRAHITE. Of the kind acts of YHWH, I sing for all time, From generation to generation I make known Your faithfulness with my mouth,
כִּֽי־אָמַרְתִּי עוֹלָם חֶסֶד יִבָּנֶה שָׁמַיִם ׀ תָּכִן אֱמוּנָתְךָ בָהֶֽם׃ | 2 |
For I said, “Kindness is built for all time, The heavens! You establish Your faithfulness in them.”
כָּרַתִּֽי בְרִית לִבְחִירִי נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי לְדָוִד עַבְדִּֽי׃ | 3 |
I have made a covenant for My chosen, I have sworn to My servant David:
עַד־עוֹלָם אָכִין זַרְעֶךָ וּבָנִיתִי לְדֹר־וָדוֹר כִּסְאֲךָ סֶֽלָה׃ | 4 |
“Even for all time I establish your seed, And have built your throne to generation and generation.” (Selah)
וְיוֹדוּ שָׁמַיִם פִּלְאֲךָ יְהוָה אַף־אֱמֽוּנָתְךָ בִּקְהַל קְדֹשִֽׁים׃ | 5 |
And the heavens confess Your wonders, O YHWH, Your faithfulness [is] also in an assembly of holy ones.
כִּי מִי בַשַּׁחַק יַעֲרֹךְ לַיהוָה יִדְמֶה לַיהוָה בִּבְנֵי אֵלִים׃ | 6 |
For who in the sky, compares himself to YHWH? [Who] is like to YHWH among sons of the mighty?
אֵל נַעֲרָץ בְּסוֹד־קְדֹשִׁים רַבָּה וְנוֹרָא עַל־כָּל־סְבִיבָֽיו׃ | 7 |
God is very terrible, In the secret counsel of His holy ones, And fearful over all surrounding Him.
יְהוָה ׀ אֱלֹהֵי צְבָאוֹת מִֽי־כָֽמוֹךָ חֲסִין ׀ יָהּ וֶאֱמֽוּנָתְךָ סְבִיבוֹתֶֽיךָ׃ | 8 |
O YHWH, God of Hosts, Who [is] like You—a strong YAH? And Your faithfulness [is] around You.
אַתָּה מוֹשֵׁל בְּגֵאוּת הַיָּם בְּשׂוֹא גַלָּיו אַתָּה תְשַׁבְּחֵֽם׃ | 9 |
You [are] ruler over the pride of the sea, In the lifting up of its billows You restrain them.
אַתָּה דִכִּאתָ כֶחָלָל רָהַב בִּזְרוֹעַ עֻזְּךָ פִּזַּרְתָּ אוֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃ | 10 |
You have bruised Rahab, as one wounded. You have scattered Your enemies with the arm of Your strength.
לְךָ שָׁמַיִם אַף־לְךָ אָרֶץ תֵּבֵל וּמְלֹאָהּ אַתָּה יְסַדְתָּֽם׃ | 11 |
The heavens [are] Yours, The earth [is] also Yours, The habitable world and its fullness, You have founded them.
צָפוֹן וְיָמִין אַתָּה בְרָאתָם תָּבוֹר וְחֶרְמוֹן בְּשִׁמְךָ יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃ | 12 |
North and south You have appointed them, Tabor and Hermon sing in Your Name.
לְךָ זְרוֹעַ עִם־גְּבוּרָה תָּעֹז יָדְךָ תָּרוּם יְמִינֶֽךָ׃ | 13 |
You have an arm with might, Strong is Your hand—high Your right hand.
צֶדֶק וּמִשְׁפָּט מְכוֹן כִּסְאֶךָ חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת יְֽקַדְּמוּ פָנֶֽיךָ׃ | 14 |
Righteousness and judgment [Are] the fixed place of Your throne, Kindness and truth go before Your face.
אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם יוֹדְעֵי תְרוּעָה יְהוָה בְּֽאוֹר־פָּנֶיךָ יְהַלֵּכֽוּן׃ | 15 |
O the blessedness of the people knowing the shout, O YHWH, they habitually walk in the light of Your face.
בְּשִׁמְךָ יְגִילוּן כָּל־הַיּוֹם וּבְצִדְקָתְךָ יָרֽוּמוּ׃ | 16 |
They rejoice in Your Name all the day, And they are exalted in Your righteousness,
כִּֽי־תִפְאֶרֶת עֻזָּמוֹ אָתָּה וּבִרְצֹנְךָ תרים תָּרוּם קַרְנֵֽנוּ׃ | 17 |
For You [are] the beauty of their strength, And in Your good will is our horn exalted,
כִּי לַֽיהוָה מָֽגִנֵּנוּ וְלִקְדוֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל מַלְכֵּֽנוּ׃ | 18 |
For our shield [is] of YHWH, And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
אָז דִּבַּרְתָּֽ־בְחָזוֹן לַֽחֲסִידֶיךָ וַתֹּאמֶר שִׁוִּיתִי עֵזֶר עַל־גִּבּוֹר הֲרִימוֹתִי בָחוּר מֵעָֽם׃ | 19 |
Then You have spoken in vision, To Your saint, indeed, You say, I have placed help on a mighty one, Exalted a chosen one out of the people,
מָצָאתִי דָּוִד עַבְדִּי בְּשֶׁמֶן קָדְשִׁי מְשַׁחְתִּֽיו׃ | 20 |
I have found My servant David, With My holy oil I have anointed him.
אֲשֶׁר יָדִי תִּכּוֹן עִמּוֹ אַף־זְרוֹעִי תְאַמְּצֶֽנּוּ׃ | 21 |
With whom My hand is established, My arm also strengthens him.
לֹֽא־יַשִּׁא אוֹיֵב בּוֹ וּבֶן־עַוְלָה לֹא יְעַנֶּֽנּוּ׃ | 22 |
An enemy does not exact on him, And a son of perverseness does not afflict him.
וְכַתּוֹתִי מִפָּנָיו צָרָיו וּמְשַׂנְאָיו אֶגּֽוֹף׃ | 23 |
And I have beaten down his adversaries before him, And I plague those hating him,
וֶֽאֶֽמוּנָתִי וְחַסְדִּי עִמּוֹ וּבִשְׁמִי תָּרוּם קַרְנֽוֹ׃ | 24 |
And My faithfulness and kindness [are] with him, And in My Name is his horn exalted.
וְשַׂמְתִּי בַיָּם יָדוֹ וּֽבַנְּהָרוֹת יְמִינֽוֹ׃ | 25 |
And I have set his hand on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.
הוּא יִקְרָאֵנִי אָבִי אָתָּה אֵלִי וְצוּר יְשׁוּעָתִֽי׃ | 26 |
He proclaims to Me: “You [are] my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.”
אַף־אָנִי בְּכוֹר אֶתְּנֵהוּ עֶלְיוֹן לְמַלְכֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃ | 27 |
I also appoint him firstborn, Highest of the kings of the earth.
לְעוֹלָם אשמור־אֶשְׁמָר־לוֹ חַסְדִּי וּבְרִיתִי נֶאֱמֶנֶת לֽוֹ׃ | 28 |
For all time I keep for him My kindness, And My covenant [is] steadfast with him.
וְשַׂמְתִּי לָעַד זַרְעוֹ וְכִסְאוֹ כִּימֵי שָׁמָֽיִם׃ | 29 |
And I have set his seed forever, And his throne as the days of the heavens.
אִם־יַֽעַזְבוּ בָנָיו תּוֹרָתִי וּבְמִשְׁפָּטַי לֹא יֵלֵכֽוּן׃ | 30 |
If his sons forsake My law, And do not walk in My judgments;
אִם־חֻקֹּתַי יְחַלֵּלוּ וּמִצְוֺתַי לֹא יִשְׁמֹֽרוּ׃ | 31 |
If they defile My statutes, And do not keep My commands,
וּפָקַדְתִּי בְשֵׁבֶט פִּשְׁעָם וּבִנְגָעִים עֲוֺנָֽם׃ | 32 |
I have looked after their transgression with a rod, And their iniquity with strokes,
וְחַסְדִּי לֹֽא־אָפִיר מֵֽעִמּוֹ וְלֹֽא־אֲשַׁקֵּר בֶּאֱמוּנָתִֽי׃ | 33 |
And I do not break My kindness from him, Nor do I deal falsely in My faithfulness.
לֹא־אֲחַלֵּל בְּרִיתִי וּמוֹצָא שְׂפָתַי לֹא אֲשַׁנֶּֽה׃ | 34 |
I do not profane My covenant, And I do not change that which is going forth from My lips.
אַחַת נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי בְקָדְשִׁי אִֽם־לְדָוִד אֲכַזֵּֽב׃ | 35 |
Once I have sworn by My holiness, I do not lie to David,
זַרְעוֹ לְעוֹלָם יִהְיֶה וְכִסְאוֹ כַשֶּׁמֶשׁ נֶגְדִּֽי׃ | 36 |
His seed is for all time, And his throne [is] as the sun before Me,
כְּיָרֵחַ יִכּוֹן עוֹלָם וְעֵד בַּשַּׁחַק נֶאֱמָן סֶֽלָה׃ | 37 |
It is established as the moon for all time, And the witness in the sky is steadfast. (Selah)
וְאַתָּה זָנַחְתָּ וַתִּמְאָס הִתְעַבַּרְתָּ עִם־מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃ | 38 |
And You, You have cast off, and reject, You have shown Yourself angry with Your anointed,
נֵאַרְתָּה בְּרִית עַבְדֶּךָ חִלַּלְתָּ לָאָרֶץ נִזְרֽוֹ׃ | 39 |
Have rejected the covenant of Your servant, You have defiled his crown to the earth,
פָּרַצְתָּ כָל־גְּדֵרֹתָיו שַׂמְתָּ מִבְצָרָיו מְחִתָּה׃ | 40 |
You have broken down all his hedges, You have made his fortifications a ruin.
שַׁסֻּהוּ כָּל־עֹבְרֵי דָרֶךְ הָיָה חֶרְפָּה לִשְׁכֵנֽ͏ָיו׃ | 41 |
Everyone passing by the way has spoiled him, He has been a reproach to his neighbors,
הֲרִימוֹתָ יְמִין צָרָיו הִשְׂמַחְתָּ כָּל־אוֹיְבָֽיו׃ | 42 |
You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries, You have caused all his enemies to rejoice.
אַף־תָּשִׁיב צוּר חַרְבּוֹ וְלֹא הֲקֵימֹתוֹ בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה׃ | 43 |
Also—You turn back the sharpness of his sword, And have not established him in battle,
הִשְׁבַּתָּ מִטְּהָרוֹ וְכִסְאוֹ לָאָרֶץ מִגַּֽרְתָּה׃ | 44 |
Have caused [him] to cease from his brightness, And have cast down his throne to the earth.
הִקְצַרְתָּ יְמֵי עֲלוּמָיו הֶֽעֱטִיתָ עָלָיו בּוּשָׁה סֶֽלָה׃ | 45 |
You have shortened the days of his youth, Have covered him over [with] shame. (Selah)
עַד־מָה יְהוָה תִּסָּתֵר לָנֶצַח תִּבְעַר כְּמוֹ־אֵשׁ חֲמָתֶֽךָ׃ | 46 |
Until when, O YHWH, are You hidden? Does Your fury burn as fire forever?
זְכָר־אֲנִי מֶה־חָלֶד עַל־מַה־שָּׁוְא בָּרָאתָ כָל־בְּנֵי־אָדָֽם׃ | 47 |
Remember how [short] my lifetime [is]. Why have You created in vain All the sons of men?
מִי גֶבֶר יִֽחְיֶה וְלֹא יִרְאֶה־מָּוֶת יְמַלֵּט נַפְשׁוֹ מִיַּד־שְׁאוֹל סֶֽלָה׃ (Sheol ) | 48 |
Who [is] the man that lives, and does not see death? He delivers his soul from the hand of Sheol. (Selah) (Sheol )
אַיֵּה ׀ חֲסָדֶיךָ הָרִאשֹׁנִים ׀ אֲדֹנָי נִשְׁבַּעְתָּ לְדָוִד בֶּאֱמוּנָתֶֽךָ׃ | 49 |
Where [are] Your former kindnesses, O Lord, [Which] You have sworn to David in Your faithfulness?
זְכֹר אֲדֹנָי חֶרְפַּת עֲבָדֶיךָ שְׂאֵתִי בְחֵיקִי כָּל־רַבִּים עַמִּֽים׃ | 50 |
Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Your servants, I have borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,
אֲשֶׁר חֵרְפוּ אוֹיְבֶיךָ ׀ יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר חֵרְפוּ עִקְּבוֹת מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃ | 51 |
With which Your enemies reproached, O YHWH, With which they have reproached The steps of Your anointed.
בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה לְעוֹלָם אָמֵן ׀ וְאָמֵֽן׃ | 52 |
Blessed [is] YHWH for all time. Amen and amen!
