א שִׁגָּיוֹן, לְדָוִד: אֲשֶׁר-שָׁר לַיהוָה--עַל-דִּבְרֵי-כוּשׁ, בֶּן-יְמִינִי.
|
1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning Cush a Benjamite.
|
|
ב יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי, בְּךָ חָסִיתִי; הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי מִכָּל-רֹדְפַי, וְהַצִּילֵנִי.
|
2 O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me;
|
|
ג פֶּן-יִטְרֹף כְּאַרְיֵה נַפְשִׁי; פֹּרֵק, וְאֵין מַצִּיל.
|
3 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
|
|
ד יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי, אִם-עָשִׂיתִי זֹאת; אִם-יֶשׁ-עָוֶל בְּכַפָּי.
|
4 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
|
|
ה אִם-גָּמַלְתִּי, שׁוֹלְמִי רָע; וָאֲחַלְּצָה צוֹרְרִי רֵיקָם.
|
5 If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness;
|
|
ו יִרַדֹּף אוֹיֵב נַפְשִׁי, וְיַשֵּׂג--וְיִרְמֹס לָאָרֶץ חַיָּי; וּכְבוֹדִי, לֶעָפָר יַשְׁכֵּן סֶלָה.
|
6 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah
|
|
ז קוּמָה יְהוָה, בְּאַפֶּךָ--הִנָּשֵׂא, בְּעַבְרוֹת צוֹרְרָי; וְעוּרָה אֵלַי, מִשְׁפָּט צִוִּיתָ.
|
7 Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded.
|
|
ח וַעֲדַת לְאֻמִּים, תְּסוֹבְבֶךָּ; וְעָלֶיהָ, לַמָּרוֹם שׁוּבָה.
|
8 And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high.
|
|
ט יְהוָה, יָדִין עַמִּים: שָׁפְטֵנִי יְהוָה; כְּצִדְקִי וּכְתֻמִּי עָלָי.
|
9 O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
|
י יִגְמָר נָא רַע, רְשָׁעִים-- וּתְכוֹנֵן צַדִּיק;
וּבֹחֵן לִבּוֹת, וּכְלָיוֹת-- אֱלֹהִים צַדִּיק.
|
10 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; {N}
for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins.
|
|
יא מָגִנִּי עַל-אֱלֹהִים; מוֹשִׁיעַ, יִשְׁרֵי-לֵב.
|
11 My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart.
|
|
יב אֱלֹהִים, שׁוֹפֵט צַדִּיק; וְאֵל, זֹעֵם בְּכָל-יוֹם.
|
12 God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
|
|
יג אִם-לֹא יָשׁוּב, חַרְבּוֹ יִלְטוֹשׁ; קַשְׁתּוֹ דָרַךְ, וַיְכוֹנְנֶהָ.
|
13 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready;
|
|
יד וְלוֹ, הֵכִין כְּלֵי מָוֶת; חִצָּיו, לְדֹלְקִים יִפְעָל.
|
14 He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp.
|
|
טו הִנֵּה יְחַבֶּל-אָוֶן; וְהָרָה עָמָל, וְיָלַד שָׁקֶר.
|
15 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood.
|
|
טז בּוֹר כָּרָה, וַיַּחְפְּרֵהוּ; וַיִּפֹּל, בְּשַׁחַת יִפְעָל.
|
16 He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
|
|
יז יָשׁוּב עֲמָלוֹ בְרֹאשׁוֹ; וְעַל קָדְקֳדוֹ, חֲמָסוֹ יֵרֵד.
|
17 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
|
|
יח אוֹדֶה יְהוָה כְּצִדְקוֹ; וַאֲזַמְּרָה, שֵׁם-יְהוָה עֶלְיוֹן.
|
18 I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High. {P}
