א רַנְּנוּ צַדִּיקִים, בַּיהוָה; לַיְשָׁרִים, נָאוָה תְהִלָּה.
|
1 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous, praise is comely for the upright.
|
ב הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה בְּכִנּוֹר; בְּנֵבֶל עָשׂוֹר, זַמְּרוּ-לוֹ.
|
2 Give thanks unto the LORD with harp, sing praises unto Him with the psaltery of ten strings.
|
ג שִׁירוּ-לוֹ, שִׁיר חָדָשׁ; הֵיטִיבוּ נַגֵּן, בִּתְרוּעָה.
|
3 Sing unto Him a new song; play skilfully amid shouts of joy.
|
ד כִּי-יָשָׁר דְּבַר-יְהוָה; וְכָל-מַעֲשֵׂהוּ, בֶּאֱמוּנָה.
|
4 For the word of the LORD is upright; and all His work is done in faithfulness.
|
ה אֹהֵב, צְדָקָה וּמִשְׁפָּט; חֶסֶד יְהוָה, מָלְאָה הָאָרֶץ.
|
5 He loveth righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.
|
ו בִּדְבַר יְהוָה, שָׁמַיִם נַעֲשׂוּ; וּבְרוּחַ פִּיו, כָּל-צְבָאָם.
|
6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
|
ז כֹּנֵס כַּנֵּד, מֵי הַיָּם; נֹתֵן בְּאוֹצָרוֹת תְּהוֹמוֹת.
|
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; He layeth up the deeps in storehouses.
|
ח יִירְאוּ מֵיְהוָה, כָּל-הָאָרֶץ; מִמֶּנּוּ יָגוּרוּ, כָּל-יֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל.
|
8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
|
ט כִּי הוּא אָמַר וַיֶּהִי; הוּא-צִוָּה, וַיַּעֲמֹד.
|
9 For He spoke, and it was; He commanded, and it stood.
|
י יְהוָה, הֵפִיר עֲצַת-גּוֹיִם; הֵנִיא, מַחְשְׁבוֹת עַמִּים.
|
10 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
|
יא עֲצַת יְהוָה, לְעוֹלָם תַּעֲמֹד; מַחְשְׁבוֹת לִבּוֹ, לְדֹר וָדֹר.
|
11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
|
יב אַשְׁרֵי הַגּוֹי, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו; הָעָם, בָּחַר לְנַחֲלָה לוֹ.
|
12 Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD; the people whom He hath chosen for His own inheritance.
|
יג מִשָּׁמַיִם, הִבִּיט יְהוָה; רָאָה, אֶת-כָּל-בְּנֵי הָאָדָם.
|
13 The LORD looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men;
|
יד מִמְּכוֹן-שִׁבְתּוֹ הִשְׁגִּיחַ-- אֶל כָּל-יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ.
|
14 From the place of His habitation He looketh intently upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
|
טו הַיֹּצֵר יַחַד לִבָּם; הַמֵּבִין, אֶל-כָּל-מַעֲשֵׂיהֶם.
|
15 He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings.
|
טז אֵין-הַמֶּלֶךְ, נוֹשָׁע בְּרָב-חָיִל; גִּבּוֹר, לֹא-יִנָּצֵל בְּרָב-כֹּחַ.
|
16 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
|
יז שֶׁקֶר הַסּוּס, לִתְשׁוּעָה; וּבְרֹב חֵילוֹ, לֹא יְמַלֵּט.
|
17 A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth it afford escape by its great strength.
|
יח הִנֵּה עֵין יְהוָה, אֶל-יְרֵאָיו; לַמְיַחֲלִים לְחַסְדּוֹ.
|
18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is toward them that fear Him, toward them that wait for His mercy;
|
יט לְהַצִּיל מִמָּוֶת נַפְשָׁם; וּלְחַיּוֹתָם, בָּרָעָב.
|
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
|
כ נַפְשֵׁנוּ, חִכְּתָה לַיהוָה; עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הוּא.
|
20 Our soul hath waited for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
|
כא כִּי-בוֹ, יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ: כִּי בְשֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ בָטָחְנוּ.
|
21 For in Him doth our heart rejoice, because we have trusted in His holy name.
|
כב יְהִי-חַסְדְּךָ יְהוָה עָלֵינוּ: כַּאֲשֶׁר, יִחַלְנוּ לָךְ.
|
22 Let Thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have waited for Thee. {P}
