< תהילים 30 >
מזמור שיר חנכת הבית לדוד ארוממך יהוה כי דליתני ולא שמחת איבי לי׃ | 1 |
A psalm of David. A psalm for the dedication of the Temple. I want to tell everyone how good you are, Lord, for you saved me, and you didn't let my enemies triumph over me.
יהוה אלהי שועתי אליך ותרפאני׃ | 2 |
Lord, my God, I called out to you for help, and you have healed me.
יהוה העלית מן שאול נפשי חייתני מיורדי בור׃ (Sheol ) | 3 |
Lord, you rescued me from the grave, you brought me back to life, saving me from going down into the pit of death. (Sheol )
זמרו ליהוה חסידיו והודו לזכר קדשו׃ | 4 |
You who trust the Lord, sing praises to him, and be thankful for his holy character!
כי רגע באפו חיים ברצונו בערב ילין בכי ולבקר רנה׃ | 5 |
For his anger only lasts a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime. You may spend the night in tears, but happiness comes with the morning.
ואני אמרתי בשלוי בל אמוט לעולם׃ | 6 |
When things were going well, I said, “Nothing will ever shake me!”
יהוה ברצונך העמדתה להררי עז הסתרת פניך הייתי נבהל׃ | 7 |
Lord, when you showed me your favor I stood as strong as a mountain; when you turned away from me I was terrified.
אליך יהוה אקרא ואל אדני אתחנן׃ | 8 |
I called out to you for help, Lord. I asked the Lord for grace, saying,
מה בצע בדמי ברדתי אל שחת היודך עפר היגיד אמתך׃ | 9 |
What would you gain if I die, if I go down into the pit of death? Would my dust praise you? Would it tell of your trustworthiness?
שמע יהוה וחנני יהוה היה עזר לי׃ | 10 |
Please listen to me, Lord, and be gracious to me! Lord, you are the one who helps me.
הפכת מספדי למחול לי פתחת שקי ותאזרני שמחה׃ | 11 |
You have turned my weeping into dancing. You have taken off my clothes of sackcloth and dressed me in happiness,
למען יזמרך כבוד ולא ידם יהוה אלהי לעולם אודך׃ | 12 |
so I can sing praises to you and not keep quiet. Lord my God, I will thank you forever!
