1 Why do you keep far away, O Lord? why are you not to be seen in times of trouble?

1 לָמָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תַּעֲמֹ֣ד בְּרָחֹ֑וק תַּ֝עְלִ֗ים לְעִתֹּ֥ות בַּצָּרָֽה׃

2 The evil-doer in his pride is cruel to the poor; let him be taken by the tricks of his invention.

2 בְּגַאֲוַ֣ת רָ֭שָׁע יִדְלַ֣ק עָנִ֑י יִתָּפְשׂ֓וּ׀ בִּמְזִמֹּ֖ות ז֣וּ חָשָֽׁבוּ׃

3 For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.

3 כִּֽי־הִלֵּ֣ל רָ֭שָׁע עַל־תַּאֲוַ֣ת נַפְשֹׁ֑ו וּבֹצֵ֥עַ בֵּ֝רֵ֗ךְ נִ֘אֵ֥ץ׀ יְהוָֽה׃

4 The evil-doer in his pride says, God will not make a search. All his thoughts are, There is no God.

4 רָשָׁ֗ע כְּגֹ֣בַהּ אַ֭פֹּו בַּל־יִדְרֹ֑שׁ אֵ֥ין אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים כָּל־מְזִמֹּותָֽיו׃

5 His ways are ever fixed; your decisions are higher than he may see: as for his haters, they are as nothing to him.

5 יָ֘חִ֤ילוּ דָרְכּו דְרָכָ֨יו׀ בְּכָל־עֵ֗ת מָרֹ֣ום מִ֭שְׁפָּטֶיךָ מִנֶּגְדֹּ֑ו כָּל־צֹ֝ורְרָ֗יו יָפִ֥יחַ בָּהֶֽם׃

6 He has said in his heart, I will not be moved: through all generations I will never be in trouble.

6 אָמַ֣ר בְּ֭לִבֹּו בַּל־אֶמֹּ֑וט לְדֹ֥ר וָ֝דֹ֗ר אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־בְרָֽע׃

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and false words: under his tongue are evil purposes and dark thoughts.

7 אָלָ֤ה פִּ֣יהוּ מָ֭לֵא וּמִרְמֹ֣ות וָתֹ֑ךְ תַּ֥חַת לְ֝שֹׁונֹ֗ו עָמָ֥ל וָאָֽוֶן׃

8 He is waiting in the dark places of the towns: in the secret places he puts to death those who have done no wrong: his eyes are secretly turned against the poor.

8 יֵשֵׁ֤ב׀ בְּמַאְרַ֬ב חֲצֵרִ֗ים בַּֽ֭מִּסְתָּרִים יַהֲרֹ֣ג נָקִ֑י עֵ֝ינָ֗יו לְֽחֵלְכָ֥ה יִצְפֹּֽנוּ׃

9 He keeps himself in a secret place like a lion in his hole, waiting to put his hands on the poor man, and pulling him into his net.

9 יֶאֱרֹ֬ב בַּמִּסְתָּ֨ר׀ כְּאַרְיֵ֬ה בְסֻכֹּ֗ה יֶ֭אֱרֹב לַחֲטֹ֣וף עָנִ֑י יַחְטֹ֥ף עָ֝נִ֗י בְּמָשְׁכֹ֥ו בְרִשְׁתֹּֽו׃

10 The upright are crushed and made low, and the feeble are overcome by his strong ones.

10 וַדָּכַה יִדְכֶּ֥ה יָשֹׁ֑חַ וְנָפַ֥ל בַּ֝עֲצוּמָ֗יו חֶלְכָּאִים חֵ֣יל כָּאִֽים׃

11 He says in his heart, God has no memory of me: his face is turned away; he will never see it.

11 אָמַ֣ר בְּ֭לִבֹּו שָׁ֣כַֽח3 אֵ֑ל הִסְתִּ֥יר פָּ֝נָ֗יו בַּל־רָאָ֥ה לָנֶֽצַח׃

12 Up! O Lord; let your hand be lifted: give thought to the poor.

12 קוּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה אֵ֭ל נְשָׂ֣א יָדֶ֑ךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּ֥ח עֲנִיִּים עֲנָוִֽים׃

13 Why has the evil-doer a low opinion of God, saying in his heart, You will not make search for it?

13 עַל־מֶ֤ה׀ נִאֵ֖ץ רָשָׁ֥ע׀ אֱלֹהִ֑ים אָמַ֥ר בְּ֝לִבֹּ֗ו לֹ֣א תִּדְרֹֽשׁ׃

14 You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

14 רָאִ֡תָה כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה׀ עָ֘מָ֤ל וָכַ֨עַס׀ תַּבִּיט֮ לָתֵ֪ת בְּיָ֫דֶ֥ךָ עָ֭לֶיךָ יַעֲזֹ֣ב חֵלֶ֑כָה יָ֝תֹ֗ום אַתָּ֤ה׀ הָיִ֬יתָ עֹוזֵֽר׃

15 Let the arm of the sinner and the evil-doer be broken; go on searching for his sin till there is no more.

15 בֹר זְרֹ֣ועַ רָשָׁ֑ע וָ֝רָ֗ע תִּֽדְרֹושׁ־רִשְׁעֹ֥ו3 בַל־תִּמְצָֽא׃

16 The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations are gone from his land.

16 יְהוָ֣ה מֶ֭לֶךְ עֹולָ֣ם וָעֶ֑ד אָבְד֥וּ גֹ֝ויִ֗ם מֵֽאַרְצֹֽו׃

17 Lord, you have given ear to the prayer of the poor: you will make strong their hearts, you will give them a hearing:

17 תַּאֲוַ֬ת עֲנָוִ֣ים שָׁמַ֣עְתָּ יְהוָ֑ה תָּכִ֥ין לִ֝בָּ֗ם תַּקְשִׁ֥יב אָזְנֶֽךָ׃

18 To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.

18 לִשְׁפֹּ֥ט יָתֹ֗ום וָ֫דָ֥ךְ בַּל־יֹוסִ֥יף עֹ֑וד לַעֲרֹ֥ץ אֱ֝נֹ֗ושׁ מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
