| א מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד לְהַזְכִּיר. |
1 A Psalm of David, to make memorial. |
| ב יְהוָה–אַל-בְּקֶצְפְּךָ תוֹכִיחֵנִי; וּבַחֲמָתְךָ תְיַסְּרֵנִי. |
2 O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger; neither chasten me in Thy wrath. |
| ג כִּי-חִצֶּיךָ, נִחֲתוּ בִי; וַתִּנְחַת עָלַי יָדֶךָ. |
3 For Thine arrows are gone deep into me, and Thy hand is come down upon me. |
| ד אֵין-מְתֹם בִּבְשָׂרִי, מִפְּנֵי זַעְמֶךָ; אֵין-שָׁלוֹם בַּעֲצָמַי, מִפְּנֵי חַטָּאתִי. |
4 There is no soundness in my flesh because of Thine indignation; neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin. |
| ה כִּי עֲוֺנֹתַי, עָבְרוּ רֹאשִׁי; כְּמַשָּׂא כָבֵד, יִכְבְּדוּ מִמֶּנִּי. |
5 For mine iniquities are gone over my head; as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me. |
| ו הִבְאִישׁוּ נָמַקּוּ, חַבּוּרֹתָי: מִפְּנֵי, אִוַּלְתִּי. |
6 My wounds are noisome, they fester, because of my foolishness. |
| ז נַעֲוֵיתִי שַׁחֹתִי עַד-מְאֹד; כָּל-הַיּוֹם, קֹדֵר הִלָּכְתִּי. |
7 I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day. |
| ח כִּי-כְסָלַי, מָלְאוּ נִקְלֶה; וְאֵין מְתֹם, בִּבְשָׂרִי. |
8 For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh. |
| ט נְפוּגוֹתִי וְנִדְכֵּיתִי עַד-מְאֹד; שָׁאַגְתִּי, מִנַּהֲמַת לִבִּי. |
9 I am benumbed and sore crushed; I groan by reason of the moaning of my heart. |
| י אֲדֹנָי, נֶגְדְּךָ כָל-תַּאֲוָתִי; וְאַנְחָתִי, מִמְּךָ לֹא-נִסְתָּרָה. |
10 Lord, all my desire is before Thee; and my sighing is not hid from Thee. |
| יא לִבִּי סְחַרְחַר, עֲזָבַנִי כֹחִי; וְאוֹר-עֵינַי גַּם-הֵם, אֵין אִתִּי. |
11 My heart fluttereth, my strength faileth me; as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me. |
| יב אֹהֲבַי, וְרֵעַי–מִנֶּגֶד נִגְעִי יַעֲמֹדוּ; וּקְרוֹבַי, מֵרָחֹק עָמָדוּ. |
12 My friends and my companions stand aloof from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off. |
| יג וַיְנַקְשׁוּ, מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשִׁי, וְדֹרְשֵׁי רָעָתִי, דִּבְּרוּ הַוּוֹת; וּמִרְמוֹת, כָּל-הַיּוֹם יֶהְגּוּ. |
13 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak crafty devices, and utter deceits all the day. |
| יד וַאֲנִי כְחֵרֵשׁ, לֹא אֶשְׁמָע; וּכְאִלֵּם, לֹא יִפְתַּח-פִּיו. |
14 But I am as a deaf man, I hear not; and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth. |
| טו וָאֱהִי–כְּאִישׁ, אֲשֶׁר לֹא-שֹׁמֵעַ; וְאֵין בְּפִיו, תּוֹכָחוֹת. |
15 Yea, I am become as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no arguments. |
| טז כִּי-לְךָ יְהוָה הוֹחָלְתִּי; אַתָּה תַעֲנֶה, אֲדֹנָי אֱלֹהָי. |
16 For in Thee, O LORD, do I hope; Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God. |
| יז כִּי-אָמַרְתִּי, פֶּן-יִשְׂמְחוּ-לִי; בְּמוֹט רַגְלִי, עָלַי הִגְדִּילוּ. |
17 For I said: ‘Lest they rejoice over me; when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.’ |
| יח כִּי-אֲנִי, לְצֶלַע נָכוֹן; וּמַכְאוֹבִי נֶגְדִּי תָמִיד. |
18 For I am ready to halt, and my pain is continually before me. |
| יט כִּי-עֲוֺנִי אַגִּיד; אֶדְאַג, מֵחַטָּאתִי. |
19 For I do declare mine iniquity; I am full of care because of my sin. |
| כ וְאֹיְבַי, חַיִּים עָצֵמוּ; וְרַבּוּ שֹׂנְאַי שָׁקֶר. |
20 But mine enemies are strong in health; and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied. |
| כא וּמְשַׁלְּמֵי רָעָה, תַּחַת טוֹבָה– יִשְׂטְנוּנִי, תַּחַת רדופי- (רָדְפִי-) טוֹב. |
21 They also that repay evil for good are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good. |
| כב אַל-תַּעַזְבֵנִי יְהוָה: אֱלֹהַי, אַל-תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי. |
22 Forsake me not, O LORD; O my God, be not far from me. |
| כג חוּשָׁה לְעֶזְרָתִי: אֲדֹנָי, תְּשׁוּעָתִי. |
23 Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation. {P} |
