א לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹת; מִזְמוֹר לְאָסָף שִׁיר. |
1 For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. |
ב נוֹדָע בִּיהוּדָה אֱלֹהִים; בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל, גָּדוֹל שְׁמוֹ. |
2 In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel. |
ג וַיְהִי בְשָׁלֵם סוּכּוֹ; וּמְעוֹנָתוֹ בְצִיּוֹן. |
3 In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion. |
ד שָׁמָּה, שִׁבַּר רִשְׁפֵי-קָשֶׁת; מָגֵן וְחֶרֶב וּמִלְחָמָה סֶלָה. |
4 There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah |
ה נָאוֹר, אַתָּה אַדִּיר– מֵהַרְרֵי-טָרֶף. |
5 Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey. |
ו אֶשְׁתּוֹלְלוּ, אַבִּירֵי לֵב– נָמוּ שְׁנָתָם;
וְלֹא-מָצְאוּ כָל-אַנְשֵׁי-חַיִל יְדֵיהֶם. |
6 The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; {N}
and none of the men of might have found their hands. |
ז מִגַּעֲרָתְךָ, אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב; נִרְדָּם, וְרֶכֶב וָסוּס. |
7 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. |
ח אַתָּה, נוֹרָא אַתָּה–וּמִי-יַעֲמֹד לְפָנֶיךָ; מֵאָז אַפֶּךָ. |
8 Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? |
ט מִשָּׁמַיִם, הִשְׁמַעְתָּ דִּין; אֶרֶץ יָרְאָה וְשָׁקָטָה. |
9 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, |
י בְּקוּם-לַמִּשְׁפָּט אֱלֹהִים– לְהוֹשִׁיעַ כָּל-עַנְוֵי-אֶרֶץ סֶלָה. |
10 When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah |
יא כִּי-חֲמַת אָדָם תּוֹדֶךָּ; שְׁאֵרִית חֵמֹת תַּחְגֹּר. |
11 Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. |
יב נִדְרוּ וְשַׁלְּמוּ, לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם: כָּל-סְבִיבָיו–יֹבִילוּ שַׁי, לַמּוֹרָא. |
12 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared; |
יג יִבְצֹר, רוּחַ נְגִידִים; נוֹרָא, לְמַלְכֵי-אָרֶץ. |
13 He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth. {P} |
