1 שִׁיר מִזְמוֹר לִבְנֵי קֹרַח לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־מָחֲלַת לְעַנּוֹת מַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵימָן הָאֶזְרָחִי׃
1 A Song, a Psalm of the sons of Korah; for the Leader; upon Mahalath Leannoth. Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite.
2 יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יְשׁוּעָתִי יוֹם־צָעַקְתִּי בַלַּיְלָה נֶגְדֶּךָ׃
2 O LORD, God of my salvation, What time I cry in the night before Thee,
3 תָּבוֹא לְפָנֶיךָ תְּפִלָּתִי הַטֵּה־אָזְנְךָ לְרִנָּתִי׃
3 Let my prayer come before Thee, Incline Thine ear unto my cry.
4 כִּי־שָׂבְעָה בְרָעוֹת נַפְשִׁי וְחַיַּי לִשְׁאוֹל הִגִּיעוּ׃
4 For my soul is sated with troubles, And my life draweth nigh unto the grave.
5 נֶחְשַׁבְתִּי עִם־יוֹרְדֵי בוֹר הָיִיתִי כְּגֶבֶר אֵין־אֱיָל׃
5 I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am become as a man that hath no help;
6 בַּמֵּתִים חָפְשִׁי כְּמוֹ חֲלָלִים שֹׁכְבֵי קֶבֶר אֲשֶׁר לֹא זְכַרְתָּם עוֹד וְהֵמָּה מִיָּדְךָ נִגְזָרוּ׃
6 Set apart among the dead, Like the slain that lie in the grave, Whom Thou rememberest no more; And they are cut off from Thy hand. .
7 שַׁתַּנִי בְּבוֹר תַּחְתִּיּוֹת בְּמַחֲשַׁכִּים בִּמְצֹלוֹת׃
7 Thou hast laid me in the nether-most pit, In dark places, in the deeps.
8 עָלַי סָמְכָה חֲמָתֶךָ וְכָל־מִשְׁבָּרֶיךָ עִנִּיתָ סֶּלָה׃
8 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, And all Thy waves Thou pressest down. Selah
9 הִרְחַקְתָּ מְיֻדָּעַי מִמֶּנִּי שַׁתַּנִי תוֹעֵבוֹת לָמוֹ כָּלֻא וְלֹא אֵצֵא׃
9 Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me; Thou hast made me an abomination unto them; I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
10 עֵינִי דָאֲבָה מִנִּי עֹנִי קְרָאתִיךָ יְהוָה בְּכָל־יוֹם שִׁטַּחְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ כַפָּי׃
10 Mine eye languisheth by reason of affliction; I have called upon Thee, O LORD, every day, I have spread forth my hands unto Thee.
11 הֲלַמֵּתִים תַּעֲשֶׂה־פֶּלֶא אִם־רְפָאִים יָקוּמוּ יוֹדוּךָ סֶּלָה׃
11 Wilt Thou work wonders for the dead? Or shall the shades arise and give Thee thanks? Selah
12 הַיְסֻפַּר בַּקֶּבֶר חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמוּנָתְךָ בָּאֲבַדּוֹן׃
12 Shall Thy mercy be declared in the grave? Or Thy faithfulness in destruction?
13 הֲיִוָּדַע בַּחֹשֶׁךְ פִּלְאֶךָ וְצִדְקָתְךָ בְּאֶרֶץ נְשִׁיָּה׃
13 Shall Thy wonders be known in the dark? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
14 וַאֲנִי אֵלֶיךָ יְהוָה שִׁוַּעְתִּי וּבַבֹּקֶר תְּפִלָּתִי תְקַדְּמֶךָּ׃
14 But as for me, unto Thee, O LORD, do I cry, And in the morning doth my prayer come to meet Thee.
15 לָמָה יְהוָה תִּזְנַח נַפְשִׁי תַּסְתִּיר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי׃
15 LORD, why castest Thou off my soul? Why hidest Thou Thy face from me?
16 עָנִי אֲנִי וְגֹוֵעַ מִנֹּעַר נָשָׂאתִי אֵמֶיךָ אָפוּנָה׃
16 I am afflicted and at the point of death from my youth up; I have borne Thy terrors, I am distracted.
17 עָלַי עָבְרוּ חֲרוֹנֶיךָ בִּעוּתֶיךָ צִמְּתוּתֻנִי׃
17 Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; Thy terrors have cut me off.
18 סַבּוּנִי כַמַּיִם כָּל־הַיּוֹם הִקִּיפוּ עָלַי יָחַד׃
18 They came round about me like water all the day; They compassed me about together.
19 הִרְחַקְתָּ מִמֶּנִּי אֹהֵב וָרֵעַ מְיֻדָּעַי מַחְשָׁךְ׃
19 Friend and companion hast Thou put far from me, And mine acquaintance into darkness.

1 מַשְׂכִּיל לְאֵיתָן הָאֶזְרָחִי׃
1 Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.
2 חַסְדֵי יְהוָה עוֹלָם אָשִׁירָה לְדֹר וָדֹר אוֹדִיעַ אֱמוּנָתְךָ בְּפִי׃
2 I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever; To all generations will I make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth.
3 כִּי־אָמַרְתִּי עוֹלָם חֶסֶד יִבָּנֶה שָׁמַיִם תָּכִן אֱמוּנָתְךָ בָהֶם׃
3 For I have said: 'For ever is mercy built; In the very heavens Thou dost establish Thy faithfulness.
4 כָּרַתִּי בְרִית לִבְחִירִי נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי לְדָוִד עַבְדִּי׃
4 I have made a covenant with My chosen, I have sworn unto David My servant:
5 עַד־עוֹלָם אָכִין זַרְעֶךָ וּבָנִיתִי לְדֹר־וָדוֹר כִּסְאֲךָ סֶלָה׃
5 For ever will I establish thy seed, And build up thy throne to all generations.' Selah
6 וְיוֹדוּ שָׁמַיִם פִּלְאֲךָ יְהוָה אַף־אֱמוּנָתְךָ בִּקְהַל קְדֹשִׁים׃
6 So shall the heavens praise Thy wonders, O LORD, Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
7 כִּי מִי בַשַּׁחַק יַעֲרֹךְ לַיהוָה יִדְמֶה לַיהוָה בִּבְנֵי אֵלִים׃
7 For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD, Who among the sons of might can be likened unto the LORD,
8 אֵל נַעֲרָץ בְּסוֹד־קְדֹשִׁים רַבָּה וְנוֹרָא עַל־כָּל־סְבִיבָיו׃
8 A God dreaded in the great council of the holy ones, And feared of all them that are about Him?
9 יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי צְבָאוֹת מִי־כָמוֹךָ חֲסִין יָהּ וֶאֱמוּנָתְךָ סְבִיבוֹתֶיךָ׃
9 O LORD God of hosts, Who is a mighty one, like unto Thee, O LORD? And Thy faithfulness is round about Thee.
10 אַתָּה מוֹשֵׁל בְּגֵאוּת הַיָּם בְּשׂוֹא גַלָּיו אַתָּה תְשַׁבְּחֵם׃
10 Thou rulest the proud swelling of the sea; When the waves thereof arise, Thou stillest them.
11 אַתָּה דִכִּאתָ כֶחָלָל רָהַב בִּזְרוֹעַ עֻזְּךָ פִּזַּרְתָּ אוֹיְבֶיךָ׃
11 Thou didst crush Rahab, as one that is slain; Thou didst scattered Thine enemies with the arm of Thy strength.
12 לְךָ שָׁמַיִם אַף־לְךָ אָרֶץ תֵּבֵל וּמְלֹאָהּ אַתָּה יְסַדְתָּם׃
12 Thine are the heavens, Thine also the earth; The world and the fulness thereof, Thou hast founded them.
13 צָפוֹן וְיָמִין אַתָּה בְרָאתָם תָּבוֹר וְחֶרְמוֹן בְּשִׁמְךָ יְרַנֵּנוּ׃
13 The north and the south, Thou hast created them; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in Thy name.
14 לְךָ זְרוֹעַ עִם־גְּבוּרָה תָּעֹז יָדְךָ תָּרוּם יְמִינֶךָ׃
14 Thine is an arm with might; Strong is Thy hand, and exalted is Thy right hand.
15 צֶדֶק וּמִשְׁפָּט מְכוֹן כִּסְאֶךָ חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת יְקַדְּמוּ פָנֶיךָ׃
15 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Thy throne; Mercy and truth go before Thee.
16 אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם יוֹדְעֵי תְרוּעָה יְהוָה בְּאוֹר־פָּנֶיךָ יְהַלֵּכוּן׃
16 Happy is the people that know the joyful shout; They walk, O LORD, in the light of Thy countenance.
17 בְּשִׁמְךָ יְגִילוּן כָּל־הַיּוֹם וּבְצִדְקָתְךָ יָרוּמוּ׃
17 In Thy name do they rejoice all the day; And through Thy righteousness are they exalted.
18 כִּי־תִפְאֶרֶת עֻזָּמוֹ אָתָּה וּבִרְצֹנְךָ תרים [תָּרוּם] קַרְנֵנוּ׃
18 For Thou art the glory of their strength; And in Thy favour our horn is exalted.
19 כִּי לַיהוָה מָגִנֵּנוּ וְלִקְדוֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל מַלְכֵּנוּ׃
19 For of the LORD is our shield; And the Holy One of Israel is our king.
20 אָז דִּבַּרְתָּ־בְחָזוֹן לַחֲסִידֶיךָ וַתֹּאמֶר שִׁוִּיתִי עֵזֶר עַל־גִּבּוֹר הֲרִימוֹתִי בָחוּר מֵעָם׃
20 Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, And saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
21 מָצָאתִי דָּוִד עַבְדִּי בְּשֶׁמֶן קָדְשִׁי מְשַׁחְתִּיו׃
21 I have found David My servant; With My holy oil have I anointed him;
22 אֲשֶׁר יָדִי תִּכּוֹן עִמּוֹ אַף־זְרוֹעִי תְאַמְּצֶנּוּ׃
22 With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
23 לֹא־יַשִּׁא אוֹיֵב בּוֹ וּבֶן־עַוְלָה לֹא יְעַנֶּנּוּ׃
23 The enemy shall not exact from him; Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
24 וְכַתּוֹתִי מִפָּנָיו צָרָיו וּמְשַׂנְאָיו אֶגּוֹף׃
24 And I will beat to pieces his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him.
25 וֶאֶמוּנָתִי וְחַסְדִּי עִמּוֹ וּבִשְׁמִי תָּרוּם קַרְנוֹ׃
25 But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him; And through My name shall his horn be exalted.
26 וְשַׂמְתִּי בַיָּם יָדוֹ וּבַנְּהָרוֹת יְמִינוֹ׃
26 I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.
27 הוּא יִקְרָאֵנִי אָבִי אָתָּה אֵלִי וְצוּר יְשׁוּעָתִי׃
27 He shall call unto Me: Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. .
28 אַף־אָנִי בְּכוֹר אֶתְּנֵהוּ עֶלְיוֹן לְמַלְכֵי־אָרֶץ׃
28 I also will appoint him first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth.
29 לְעוֹלָם אשמור־[אֶשְׁמָר־] לוֹ חַסְדִּי וּבְרִיתִי נֶאֱמֶנֶת לוֹ׃
29 For ever will I keep for him My mercy, And My covenant shall stand fast with him.
30 וְשַׂמְתִּי לָעַד זַרְעוֹ וְכִסְאוֹ כִּימֵי שָׁמָיִם׃
30 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, And his throne as the days of heaven.
31 אִם־יַעַזְבוּ בָנָיו תּוֹרָתִי וּבְמִשְׁפָּטַי לֹא יֵלֵכוּן׃
31 If his children forsake My law, And walk not in Mine ordinances; :
32 אִם־חֻקֹּתַי יְחַלֵּלוּ וּמִצְוֺתַי לֹא יִשְׁמֹרוּ׃
32 If they profane My statutes, And keep not My commandments;
33 וּפָקַדְתִּי בְשֵׁבֶט פִּשְׁעָם וּבִנְגָעִים עֲוֺנָם׃
33 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with strokes.
34 וְחַסְדִּי לֹא־אָפִיר מֵעִמּוֹ וְלֹא־אֲשַׁקֵּר בֶּאֱמוּנָתִי׃
34 But My mercy will I not break off from him, Nor will I be false to My faithfulness.
35 לֹא־אֲחַלֵּל בְּרִיתִי וּמוֹצָא שְׂפָתַי לֹא אֲשַׁנֶּה׃
35 My covenant will I not profane, Nor alter that which is gone out of My lips.
36 אַחַת נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי בְקָדְשִׁי אִם־לְדָוִד אֲכַזֵּב׃
36 Once have I sworn by My holiness: Surely I will not be false unto David;
37 זַרְעוֹ לְעוֹלָם יִהְיֶה וְכִסְאוֹ כַשֶּׁמֶשׁ נֶגְדִּי׃
37 His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before Me.
38 כְּיָרֵחַ יִכּוֹן עוֹלָם וְעֵד בַּשַּׁחַק נֶאֱמָן סֶלָה׃
38 It shall be established for ever as the moon; And be stedfast as the witness in sky.' Selah
39 וְאַתָּה זָנַחְתָּ וַתִּמְאָס הִתְעַבַּרְתָּ עִם־מְשִׁיחֶךָ׃
39 But Thou hast cast off and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with Thine anointed.
40 נֵאַרְתָּה בְּרִית עַבְדֶּךָ חִלַּלְתָּ לָאָרֶץ נִזְרוֹ׃
40 Thou hast abhorred the covenant of Thy servant; Thou hast profaned his crown even to the ground.
41 פָּרַצְתָּ כָל־גְּדֵרֹתָיו שַׂמְתָּ מִבְצָרָיו מְחִתָּה׃
41 Thou hast broken down all his fences; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.
42 שַׁסֻּהוּ כָּל־עֹבְרֵי דָרֶךְ הָיָה חֶרְפָּה לִשְׁכֵנָיו׃
42 All that pass by the way spoil him; He is become a taunt to his neighbours.
43 הֲרִימוֹתָ יְמִין צָרָיו הִשְׂמַחְתָּ כָּל־אוֹיְבָיו׃
43 Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
44 אַף־תָּשִׁיב צוּר חַרְבּוֹ וְלֹא הֲקֵימֹתוֹ בַּמִּלְחָמָה׃
44 Yea, Thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle.
45 הִשְׁבַּתָּ מִטְּהָרוֹ וְכִסְאוֹ לָאָרֶץ מִגַּרְתָּה׃
45 Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground.
46 הִקְצַרְתָּ יְמֵי עֲלוּמָיו הֶעֱטִיתָ עָלָיו בּוּשָׁה סֶלָה׃
46 The days of his youth hast Thou shortened; Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah
47 עַד־מָה יְהוָה תִּסָּתֵר לָנֶצַח תִּבְעַר כְּמוֹ־אֵשׁ חֲמָתֶךָ׃
47 How long, O LORD, wilt Thou hide Thyself for ever? How long shall Thy wrath burn like fire?
48 זְכָר־אֲנִי מֶה־חָלֶד עַל־מַה־שָּׁוְא בָּרָאתָ כָל־בְּנֵי־אָדָם׃
48 O remember how short my time is; For what vanity hast Thou created all the children of men!
49 מִי גֶבֶר יִחְיֶה וְלֹא יִרְאֶה־מָּוֶת יְמַלֵּט נַפְשׁוֹ מִיַּד־שְׁאוֹל סֶלָה׃
49 What man is he that liveth and shall not see death, That shall deliver his soul from the power of the grave? Selah
50 אַיֵּה חֲסָדֶיךָ הָרִאשֹׁנִים אֲדֹנָי נִשְׁבַּעְתָּ לְדָוִד בֶּאֱמוּנָתֶךָ׃
50 Where are Thy former mercies, O Lord, Which Thou didst swear unto David in Thy faithfulness?
51 זְכֹר אֲדֹנָי חֶרְפַּת עֲבָדֶיךָ שְׂאֵתִי בְחֵיקִי כָּל־רַבִּים עַמִּים׃
51 Remember, Lord, the taunt of Thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom [the taunt of] so many peoples;
52 אֲשֶׁר חֵרְפוּ אוֹיְבֶיךָ יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר חֵרְפוּ עִקְּבוֹת מְשִׁיחֶךָ׃
52 Wherewith Thine enemies have taunted, O LORD, Wherewith they have taunted the footsteps of Thine anointed.
53 בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה לְעוֹלָם אָמֵן וְאָמֵן׃
53 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
