1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹת מַשְׂכִּיל לְדָוִד׃
1 For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David.
2 הַאֲזִינָה אֱלֹהִים תְּפִלָּתִי וְאַל־תִּתְעַלַּם מִתְּחִנָּתִי׃
2 Give ear, O God, to my prayer; And hide not Thyself from my supplication.
3 הַקְשִׁיבָה לִּי וַעֲנֵנִי אָרִיד בְּשִׂיחִי וְאָהִימָה׃
3 Attend unto me, and hear me; I am distraught in my complaint, and will moan;
4 מִקּוֹל אוֹיֵב מִפְּנֵי עָקַת רָשָׁע כִּי־יָמִיטוּ עָלַי אָוֶן וּבְאַף יִשְׂטְמוּנִי׃
4 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; For they cast mischief upon me, and in anger they persecute me.
5 לִבִּי יָחִיל בְּקִרְבִּי וְאֵימוֹת מָוֶת נָפְלוּ עָלָי׃
5 My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
6 יִרְאָה וָרַעַד יָבֹא בִי וַתְּכַסֵּנִי פַּלָּצוּת׃
6 Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
7 וָאֹמַר מִי־יִתֶּן־לִּי אֵבֶר כַּיּוֹנָה אָעוּפָה וְאֶשְׁכֹּנָה׃
7 And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then would I fly away, and be at rest.
8 הִנֵּה אַרְחִיק נְדֹד אָלִין בַּמִּדְבָּר סֶלָה׃
8 Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah
9 אָחִישָׁה מִפְלָט לִי מֵרוּחַ סֹעָה מִסָּעַר׃
9 I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.'
10 בַּלַּע אֲדֹנָי פַּלַּג לְשׁוֹנָם כִּי־רָאִיתִי חָמָס וְרִיב בָּעִיר׃
10 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongue; For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
11 יוֹמָם וָלַיְלָה יְסוֹבְבֻהָ עַל־חוֹמֹתֶיהָ וְאָוֶן וְעָמָל בְּקִרְבָּהּ׃
11 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; iniquity also and mischief are in the midst of it.
12 הַוּוֹת בְּקִרְבָּהּ וְלֹא־יָמִישׁ מֵרְחֹבָהּ תֹּךְ וּמִרְמָה׃
12 Wickedness is in the midst thereof; oppression and guile depart not from her broad place.
13 כִּי לֹא־אוֹיֵב יְחָרְפֵנִי וְאֶשָּׂא לֹא־מְשַׂנְאִי עָלַי הִגְדִּיל וְאֶסָּתֵר מִמֶּנּוּ׃
13 For it was not an enemy that taunted me, Then I could have borne it; Neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, Then I would have hid myself from him.
14 וְאַתָּה אֱנוֹשׁ כְּעֶרְכִּי אַלּוּפִי וּמְיֻדָּעִי׃
14 But it was thou, a man mine equal, My companion, and my familiar friend;
15 אֲשֶׁר יַחְדָּו נַמְתִּיק סוֹד בְּבֵית אֱלֹהִים נְהַלֵּךְ בְּרָגֶשׁ׃
15 We took sweet counsel together, In the house of God we walked with the throng.
16 ישימות [יַשִּׁי] [מָוֶת ] עָלֵימוֹ יֵרְדוּ שְׁאוֹל חַיִּים כִּי־רָעוֹת בִּמְגוּרָם בְּקִרְבָּם׃
16 May He incite death against them, Let them go down alive into the nether-world; For evil is in their dwelling, and within them.
17 אֲנִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים אֶקְרָא וַיהוָה יוֹשִׁיעֵנִי׃
17 As for me, I will call upon God; And the LORD shall save me.
18 עֶרֶב וָבֹקֶר וְצָהֳרַיִם אָשִׂיחָה וְאֶהֱמֶה וַיִּשְׁמַע קוֹלִי׃
18 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I complain, and moan; And He hath heard my voice.
19 פָּדָה בְשָׁלוֹם נַפְשִׁי מִקֲּרָב־לִי כִּי־בְרַבִּים הָיוּ עִמָּדִי׃
19 He hath redeemed my soul in peace so that none came nigh me; For they were many that strove with me.
20 יִשְׁמַע אֵל וְיַעֲנֵם וְיֹשֵׁב קֶדֶם סֶלָה אֲשֶׁר אֵין חֲלִיפוֹת לָמוֹ וְלֹא יָרְאוּ אֱלֹהִים׃
20 God shall hear, and humble them, even He that is enthroned of old, Selah, such as have no changes, and fear not God.
21 שָׁלַח יָדָיו בִּשְׁלֹמָיו חִלֵּל בְּרִיתוֹ׃
21 He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; He hath profaned his covenant.
22 חָלְקוּ מַחְמָאֹת פִּיו וּקֲרָב־לִבּוֹ רַכּוּ דְבָרָיו מִשֶּׁמֶן וְהֵמָּה פְתִחוֹת׃
22 Smoother than cream were the speeches of his mouth, But his heart was war; His words were softer than oil, Yet were they keen-edged swords.
23 הַשְׁלֵךְ עַל־יְהוָה יְהָבְךָ וְהוּא יְכַלְכְּלֶךָ לֹא־יִתֵּן לְעוֹלָם מוֹט לַצַּדִּיק׃
23 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
24 וְאַתָּה אֱלֹהִים תּוֹרִדֵם לִבְאֵר שַׁחַת אַנְשֵׁי דָמִים וּמִרְמָה לֹא־יֶחֱצוּ יְמֵיהֶם וַאֲנִי אֶבְטַח־בָּךְ׃
24 But Thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the nethermost pit; Men of blood and deceit shall not live out half their days; But as for me, I will trust in Thee.

6 כָּל־הַיּוֹם דְּבָרַי יְעַצֵּבוּ עָלַי כָּל־מַחְשְׁבֹתָם לָרָע׃
6 All the day they trouble mine affairs; All their thoughts are against me for evil.
