1 {A Prayer of David.} Hear the right, O Jehovah, attend unto my cry; give ear unto my prayer, which is not out of feigned lips.

1 תְּפִלָּ֗ה לְדָ֫וִ֥ד שִׁמְעָ֤ה יְהוָ֨ה׀ צֶ֗דֶק הַקְשִׁ֥יבָה רִנָּתִ֗י הַאֲזִ֥ינָה תְפִלָּתִ֑י בְּ֝לֹ֗א שִׂפְתֵ֥י מִרְמָֽה׃

2 Let my judgment come forth from thy presence, let thine eyes regard equity.

2 מִ֭לְּפָנֶיךָ מִשְׁפָּטִ֣י יֵצֵ֑א עֵ֝ינֶ֗יךָ תֶּחֱזֶ֥ינָה מֵישָׁרִֽים׃

3 Thou hast proved my heart, thou hast visited me by night; thou hast tried me, thou hast found nothing: my thought goeth not beyond my word.

3 בָּ֘חַ֤נְתָּ לִבִּ֨י׀ פָּ֘קַ֤דְתָּ לַּ֗יְלָה צְרַפְתַּ֥נִי בַל־תִּמְצָ֑א זַ֝מֹּתִ֗י בַּל־יַעֲבָר־פִּֽי׃

4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept from the paths of the violent [man].

4 לִפְעֻלֹּ֣ות אָ֭דָם בִּדְבַ֣ר שְׂפָתֶ֑יךָ אֲנִ֥י מַ֗רְתִּי אָרְחֹ֥ות פָּרִֽיץ׃

5 When thou holdest my goings in thy paths, my footsteps slip not.

5 תָּמֹ֣ךְ אֲ֭שֻׁרַי בְּמַעְגְּלֹותֶ֑יךָ בַּל־נָמֹ֥וטּוּ3 פְעָמָֽי׃

6 I have called upon thee, for thou answerest me, O ùGod. Incline thine ear unto me, hear my speech.

6 אֲנִֽי־קְרָאתִ֣יךָ כִֽי־תַעֲנֵ֣נִי אֵ֑ל הַֽט־אָזְנְךָ֥ לִ֝֗י שְׁמַ֣ע אִמְרָתִֽי׃

7 Shew wondrously thy loving-kindnesses, O thou that savest by thy right hand them that trust [in thee] from those that rise up [against them].

7 הַפְלֵ֣ה חֲ֭סָדֶיךָ מֹושִׁ֣יעַ חֹוסִ֑ים מִ֝מִּתְקֹומְמִ֗ים בִּֽימִינֶֽךָ׃

8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,

8 מְרֵנִי כְּאִישֹׁ֣ון בַּת־עָ֑יִן בְּצֵ֥ל כְּ֝נָפֶ֗יךָ תַּסְתִּירֵֽנִי׃

9 From the wicked that destroy me, my deadly enemies, who compass me about.

9 מִפְּנֵ֣י רְ֭שָׁעִים ז֣וּ שַׁדּ֑וּנִי אֹיְבַ֥י בְּ֝נֶ֗פֶשׁ יַקִּ֥יפוּ עָלָֽי׃

10 They are enclosed in their own fat; with their mouth they speak proudly.

10 חֶלְבָּ֥מֹו סָּגְר֑וּ פִּ֝֗ימֹו דִּבְּר֥וּ בְגֵאֽוּת׃

11 They have now encompassed us in our steps; their eyes have they set, bowing down to the earth.

11 אַ֭שֻּׁרֵינוּ עַתָּ֣ה סְבָבוּנִי סְבָב֑וּנוּ עֵינֵיהֶ֥ם יָ֝שִׁ֗יתוּ לִנְטֹ֥ות בָּאָֽרֶץ׃

12 He is like a lion that is greedy of its prey, and as a young lion lurking in secret places.

12 דִּמְיֹנֹ֗ו כְּ֭אַרְיֵה יִכְסֹ֣וף לִטְרֹ֑וף וְ֝כִכְפִ֗יר יֹשֵׁ֥ב בְּמִסְתָּרִֽים׃

13 Arise, Jehovah, anticipate him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, thy sword;

13 קוּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה קַדְּמָ֣ה פָ֭נָיו הַכְרִיעֵ֑הוּ פַּלְּטָ֥ה נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י מֵרָשָׁ֥ע חַרְבֶּֽךָ׃

14 From men [who are] thy hand, O Jehovah, from men of this age: their portion is in [this] life, and their belly thou fillest with thy hid [treasure]; they have their fill of sons, and leave the rest of their [substance] to their children.

14 מִֽמְתִ֥ים יָדְךָ֨׀ יְהוָ֡ה מִֽמְתִ֬ים מֵחֶ֗לֶד חֶלְקָ֥ם בַּֽחַיִּים֮ וּצְפִינְךָ וּֽצְפוּנְךָ֮ תְּמַלֵּ֪א בִ֫טְנָ֥ם יִשְׂבְּע֥וּ בָנִ֑ים וְהִנִּ֥יחוּ יִ֝תְרָ֗ם לְעֹולְלֵיהֶֽם׃

15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.

15 אֲנִ֗י בְּ֭צֶדֶק אֶחֱזֶ֣ה פָנֶ֑יךָ אֶשְׂבְּעָ֥ה בְ֝הָקִ֗יץ תְּמוּנָתֶֽךָ׃
