א לְדָוִד-- בְּשַׁנּוֹתוֹ אֶת-טַעְמוֹ, לִפְנֵי אֲבִימֶלֶךְ; וַיְגָרְשֵׁהוּ, וַיֵּלַךְ.
|
1 [A Psalm] of David; when he changed his demeanour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.
|
ב אֲבָרְכָה אֶת-יְהוָה בְּכָל-עֵת; תָּמִיד, תְּהִלָּתוֹ בְּפִי.
|
2 I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
|
ג בַּיהוָה, תִּתְהַלֵּל נַפְשִׁי; יִשְׁמְעוּ עֲנָוִים וְיִשְׂמָחוּ.
|
3 My soul shall glory in the LORD; the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
|
ד גַּדְּלוּ לַיהוָה אִתִּי; וּנְרוֹמְמָה שְׁמוֹ יַחְדָּו.
|
4 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together.
|
ה דָּרַשְׁתִּי אֶת-יְהוָה וְעָנָנִי; וּמִכָּל-מְגוּרוֹתַי הִצִּילָנִי.
|
5 I sought the LORD, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
|
ו הִבִּיטוּ אֵלָיו וְנָהָרוּ; וּפְנֵיהֶם, אַל-יֶחְפָּרוּ.
|
6 They looked unto Him, and were radiant; and their faces shall never be abashed.
|
ז זֶה עָנִי קָרָא, וַיהוָה שָׁמֵעַ; וּמִכָּל-צָרוֹתָיו, הוֹשִׁיעוֹ.
|
7 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard, and saved him out of all his troubles.
|
ח חֹנֶה מַלְאַךְ-יְהוָה סָבִיב לִירֵאָיו; וַיְחַלְּצֵם.
|
8 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them.
|
ט טַעֲמוּ וּרְאוּ, כִּי-טוֹב יְהוָה; אַשְׁרֵי הַגֶּבֶר, יֶחֱסֶה-בּוֹ.
|
9 O consider and see that the LORD is good; happy is the man that taketh refuge in Him.
|
י יְראוּ אֶת-יְהוָה קְדֹשָׁיו: כִּי-אֵין מַחְסוֹר, לִירֵאָיו.
|
10 O fear the LORD, ye His holy ones; for there is no want to them that fear Him.
|
יא כְּפִירִים, רָשׁוּ וְרָעֵבוּ; וְדֹרְשֵׁי יְהוָה, לֹא-יַחְסְרוּ כָל-טוֹב.
|
11 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; but they that seek the LORD want not any good thing.
|
יב לְכוּ-בָנִים, שִׁמְעוּ-לִי; יִרְאַת יְהוָה, אֲלַמֶּדְכֶם.
|
12 Come, ye children, hearken unto me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
|
יג מִי-הָאִישׁ, הֶחָפֵץ חַיִּים; אֹהֵב יָמִים, לִרְאוֹת טוֹב.
|
13 Who is the man that desireth life, and loveth days, that he may see good therein?
|
יד נְצֹר לְשׁוֹנְךָ מֵרָע; וּשְׂפָתֶיךָ, מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָה.
|
14 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
|
טו סוּר מֵרָע, וַעֲשֵׂה-טוֹב; בַּקֵּשׁ שָׁלוֹם וְרָדְפֵהוּ.
|
15 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
|
טז עֵינֵי יְהוָה, אֶל-צַדִּיקִים; וְאָזְנָיו, אֶל-שַׁוְעָתָם.
|
16 The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous, and His ears are open unto their cry.
|
יז פְּנֵי יְהוָה, בְּעֹשֵׂי רָע; לְהַכְרִית מֵאֶרֶץ זִכְרָם.
|
17 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
|
יח צָעֲקוּ, וַיהוָה שָׁמֵעַ; וּמִכָּל-צָרוֹתָם, הִצִּילָם.
|
18 They cried, and the LORD heard, and delivered them out of all their troubles.
|
יט קָרוֹב יְהוָה, לְנִשְׁבְּרֵי-לֵב; וְאֶת-דַּכְּאֵי-רוּחַ יוֹשִׁיעַ.
|
19 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, and saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.
|
כ רַבּוֹת, רָעוֹת צַדִּיק; וּמִכֻּלָּם, יַצִּילֶנּוּ יְהוָה.
|
20 Many are the ills of the righteous, but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
|
כא שֹׁמֵר כָּל-עַצְמוֹתָיו; אַחַת מֵהֵנָּה, לֹא נִשְׁבָּרָה.
|
21 He keepeth all his bones; not one of them is broken.
|
כב תְּמוֹתֵת רָשָׁע רָעָה; וְשֹׂנְאֵי צַדִּיק יֶאְשָׁמוּ.
|
22 Evil shall kill the wicked; and they that hate the righteous shall be held guilty.
|
כג פֹּדֶה יְהוָה, נֶפֶשׁ עֲבָדָיו; וְלֹא יֶאְשְׁמוּ, כָּל-הַחֹסִים בּוֹ.
|
23 The LORD redeemeth the soul of His servants; and none of them that take refuge in Him shall be desolate. {P}
