< תהילים 91 >
יֹשֵׁב בְּסֵתֶר עֶלְיוֹן בְּצֵל שַׁדַּי יִתְלוֹנָֽן׃ | 1 |
Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.
אֹמַר לַֽיהוָה מַחְסִי וּמְצוּדָתִי אֱלֹהַי אֶבְטַח־בּֽוֹ׃ | 2 |
He shall say to the Lord, You are my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.
כִּי הוּא יַצִּֽילְךָ מִפַּח יָקוּשׁ מִדֶּבֶר הַוּֽוֹת׃ | 3 |
For he shall deliver you from the snare of the hunters, from [every] troublesome matter.
בְּאֶבְרָתוֹ ׀ יָסֶךְ לָךְ וְתַֽחַת־כְּנָפָיו תֶּחְסֶה צִנָּה וְֽסֹחֵרָה אֲמִתּֽוֹ׃ | 4 |
He shall overshadow you with his shoulders, and you shall trust under his wings: his truth shall cover you with a shield.
לֹא־תִירָא מִפַּחַד לָיְלָה מֵחֵץ יָעוּף יוֹמָֽם׃ | 5 |
You shall not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;
מִדֶּבֶר בָּאֹפֶל יַהֲלֹךְ מִקֶּטֶב יָשׁוּד צָהֳרָֽיִם׃ | 6 |
[nor] of the [evil] thing that walks in darkness; [nor] of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.
יִפֹּל מִצִּדְּךָ ׀ אֶלֶף וּרְבָבָה מִימִינֶךָ אֵלֶיךָ לֹא יִגָּֽשׁ׃ | 7 |
A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
רַק בְּעֵינֶיךָ תַבִּיט וְשִׁלֻּמַת רְשָׁעִים תִּרְאֶֽה׃ | 8 |
Only with your eyes shall you observe and see the reward of sinners.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהוָה מַחְסִי עֶלְיוֹן שַׂמְתָּ מְעוֹנֶֽךָ׃ | 9 |
For you, O Lord, are my hope: you, my soul, have made the Most High your refuge.
לֹֽא־תְאֻנֶּה אֵלֶיךָ רָעָה וְנֶגַע לֹא־יִקְרַב בְּאָהֳלֶֽךָ׃ | 10 |
No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.
כִּי מַלְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה־לָּךְ לִשְׁמָרְךָ בְּכָל־דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃ | 11 |
For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.
עַל־כַּפַּיִם יִשָּׂאוּנְךָ פֶּן־תִּגֹּף בָּאֶבֶן רַגְלֶֽךָ׃ | 12 |
They shall bear you up on their hands, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.
עַל־שַׁחַל וָפֶתֶן תִּדְרֹךְ תִּרְמֹס כְּפִיר וְתַנִּֽין׃ | 13 |
You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon.
כִּי בִי חָשַׁק וַאֲפַלְּטֵהוּ אֲשַׂגְּבֵהוּ כִּֽי־יָדַע שְׁמִֽי׃ | 14 |
For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.
יִקְרָאֵנִי ׀ וְֽאֶעֱנֵהוּ עִמּֽוֹ־אָנֹכִי בְצָרָה אֲחַלְּצֵהוּ וַֽאֲכַבְּדֵֽהוּ׃ | 15 |
He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.
אֹרֶךְ יָמִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵהוּ וְאַרְאֵהוּ בִּֽישׁוּעָתִֽי׃ | 16 |
I will satisfy him with length of days, and show him my salvation.
