1 {To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song.} Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.

1 לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ לְדָוִ֗ד מִזְמֹ֥ור שִֽׁיר׃

2 As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.

2 יָק֣וּם אֱ֭לֹהִים יָפ֣וּצוּ אֹויְבָ֑יו וְיָנ֥וּסוּ מְ֝שַׂנְאָ֗יו מִפָּנָֽיו׃

3 But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.

3 כְּהִנְדֹּ֥ף עָשָׁ֗ן תִּ֫נְדֹּ֥ף כְּהִמֵּ֣ס דֹּ֭ונַג מִפְּנֵי־אֵ֑שׁ יֹאבְד֥וּ רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים מִפְּנֵ֥י אֱלֹהִֽים׃

4 Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.

4 וְֽצַדִּיקִ֗ים יִשְׂמְח֣וּ יַֽ֭עַלְצוּ לִפְנֵ֥י אֱלֹהִ֗ים וְיָשִׂ֥ישׂוּ בְשִׂמְחָֽה׃

5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.

5 שִׁ֤ירוּ׀ לֵֽאלֹהִים֮ זַמְּר֪וּ שְׁ֫מֹ֥ו סֹ֡לּוּ לָרֹכֵ֣ב בָּ֭עֲרָבֹות בְּיָ֥הּ שְׁמֹ֗ו וְעִלְז֥וּ לְפָנָֽיו׃

6 God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].

6 אֲבִ֣י יְ֭תֹומִים וְדַיַּ֣ן אַלְמָנֹ֑ות אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים בִּמְעֹ֥ון קָדְשֹֽׁו׃

7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness -- (Selah) --

7 אֱלֹהִ֤ים׀ מֹ֘ושִׁ֤יב יְחִידִ֨ים׀ בַּ֗יְתָה מֹוצִ֣יא אֲ֭סִירִים בַּכֹּושָׁרֹ֑ות אַ֥ךְ סֹ֝ורֲרִ֗ים שָׁכְנ֥וּ צְחִיחָֽה׃

8 The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

8 אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים בְּ֭צֵאתְךָ לִפְנֵ֣י עַמֶּ֑ךָ בְּצַעְדְּךָ֖ בִֽישִׁימֹ֣ון סֶֽלָה׃

9 Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.

9 אֶ֤רֶץ רָעָ֨שָׁה׀ אַף־שָׁמַ֣יִם נָטְפוּ֮ מִפְּנֵ֪י אֱלֹ֫הִ֥ים זֶ֥ה סִינַ֑י מִפְּנֵ֥י אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

10 Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!

10 גֶּ֣שֶׁם נְ֭דָבֹות תָּנִ֣יף אֱלֹהִ֑ים נַחֲלָתְךָ֥ וְ֝נִלְאָ֗ה אַתָּ֥ה כֹֽונַנְתָּֽהּ׃

11 The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.

11 חַיָּתְךָ֥ יָֽשְׁבוּ־בָ֑הּ תָּ֤כִ֥ין בְּטֹובָתְךָ֖ לֶעָנִ֣י אֱלֹהִֽים׃

12 Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.

12 אֲדֹנָ֥י יִתֶּן־אֹ֑מֶר הַֽ֝מְבַשְּׂרֹ֗ות צָבָ֥א רָֽב׃

13 Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.

13 מַלְכֵ֣י צְ֭בָאֹות יִדֹּד֣וּן יִדֹּד֑וּן וּנְוַת בַּ֝֗יִת תְּחַלֵּ֥ק שָׁלָֽל׃

14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.

14 אִֽם־תִּשְׁכְּבוּן֮ בֵּ֪ין שְׁפַ֫תָּ֥יִם כַּנְפֵ֣י יֹ֭ונָה נֶחְפָּ֣ה בַכֶּ֑סֶף וְ֝אֶבְרֹותֶ֗יהָ בִּֽירַקְרַ֥ק חָרֽוּץ׃

15 [As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.

15 בְּפָ֘רֵ֤שׂ שַׁדַּ֓י מְלָ֘כִ֤ים בָּ֗הּ תַּשְׁלֵ֥ג בְּצַלְמֹֽון׃

16 Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.

16 הַר־אֱ֭לֹהִים הַר־בָּשָׁ֑ן הַ֥ר גַּ֝בְנֻנִּ֗ים הַר־בָּשָֽׁן׃

17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.

17 לָ֤מָּה׀ תְּֽרַצְּדוּן֮ הָרִ֪ים גַּבְנֻ֫נִּ֥ים הָהָ֗ר חָמַ֣ד אֱלֹהִ֣ים לְשִׁבְתֹּ֑ו אַף־יְ֝הוָ֗ה יִשְׁכֹּ֥ן לָנֶֽצַח׃

18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.

18 רֶ֤כֶב אֱלֹהִ֗ים רִבֹּתַ֣יִם אַלְפֵ֣י שִׁנְאָ֑ן אֲדֹנָ֥י בָ֝֗ם סִינַ֥י בַּקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃

19 Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], the ùGod who is our salvation. Selah.

19 עָ֘לִ֤יתָ לַמָּרֹ֨ום׀ שָׁ֘בִ֤יתָ שֶּׁ֗בִי לָקַ֣חְתָּ מַ֭תָּנֹות בָּאָדָ֑ם וְאַ֥ף סֹ֝ורְרִ֗ים לִשְׁכֹּ֤ן׀ יָ֬הּ אֱלֹהִֽים׃

20 Our ùGod is the ùGod of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.

20 בָּ֤ר֣וּךְ אֲדֹנָי֮ יֹ֤ום׀ יֹ֥ום יַֽעֲמָס־לָ֗נוּ הָ֘אֵ֤ל יְֽשׁוּעָתֵ֬נוּ סֶֽלָה׃

21 Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.

21 הָ֤אֵ֣ל׀ לָנוּ֮ אֵ֤ל לְֽמֹושָׁ֫עֹ֥ות וְלֵיהוִ֥ה אֲדֹנָ֑י לַ֝מָּ֗וֶת תֹּוצָאֹֽות׃

22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;

22 אַךְ־אֱלֹהִ֗ים יִמְחַץ֮ רֹ֤אשׁ אֹ֫יְבָ֥יו קָדְקֹ֥ד שֵׂעָ֑ר מִ֝תְהַלֵּ֗ךְ בַּאֲשָׁמָֽיו׃

23 That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.

23 אָמַ֣ר אֲ֭דֹנָי מִבָּשָׁ֣ן אָשִׁ֑יב אָ֝שִׁ֗יב מִֽמְּצֻלֹ֥ות יָֽם׃

24 They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my ùGod, my King, in the sanctuary.

24 לְמַ֤עַן׀ תִּֽמְחַ֥ץ רַגְלְךָ֗ בְּ֫דָ֥ם לְשֹׁ֥ון כְּלָבֶ֑יךָ מֵאֹיְבִ֥ים מִנֵּֽהוּ׃

25 The singers went before, the players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.

25 רָא֣וּ הֲלִיכֹותֶ֣יךָ אֱלֹהִ֑ים הֲלִ֘יכֹ֤ות אֵלִ֖י מַלְכִּ֣י בַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃

26 In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, -- [ye] from the fountain of Israel.

26 קִדְּמ֣וּ רִים אַחַ֣ר נֹגְנִ֑ים בְּתֹ֥וךְ עֲ֝לָמֹ֗ות תֹּופֵפֹֽות׃

27 There is little Benjamin, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

27 בְּֽ֭מַקְהֵלֹות בָּרְכ֣וּ אֱלֹהִ֑ים יְ֝הוָ֗ה מִמְּקֹ֥ור יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.

28 שָׁ֤ם בִּנְיָמִ֨ן׀ צָעִ֡יר רֹדֵ֗ם שָׂרֵ֣י יְ֭הוּדָה רִגְמָתָ֑ם שָׂרֵ֥י זְ֝בֻל֗וּן שָׂרֵ֥י נַפְתָּלִֽי׃

29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.

29 צִוָּ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ עֻ֫זֶּ֥ךָ עוּזָּ֥ה אֱלֹהִ֑ים ז֝֗וּ פָּעַ֥לְתָּ לָּֽנוּ׃

30 Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.

30 מֵֽ֭הֵיכָלֶךָ עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִָ֑ם לְךָ֤ יֹובִ֖ילוּ מְלָכִ֣ים שָֽׁי׃

31 Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.

31 גְּעַ֨ר חַיַּ֪ת קָנֶ֡ה עֲדַ֤ת אַבִּירִ֨ים׀ בְּעֶגְלֵ֬י עַמִּ֗ים מִתְרַפֵּ֥ס בְּרַצֵּי־כָ֑סֶף בִּזַּ֥ר עַ֝מִּ֗ים קְרָבֹ֥ות יֶחְפָּֽצוּ׃

32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of the Lord, (Selah,)

32 יֶאֱתָ֣יוּ חַ֭שְׁמַנִּים מִנִּ֣י מִצְרָ֑יִם כּ֥וּשׁ תָּרִ֥יץ יָ֝דָ֗יו לֵאלֹהִֽים׃

33 Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the heavens which are of old: lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.

33 מַמְלְכֹ֣ות הָ֭אָרֶץ שִׁ֣ירוּ לֵאלֹהִ֑ים זַמְּר֖וּ אֲדֹנָ֣י סֶֽלָה׃

34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.

34 לָ֭רֹכֵב בִּשְׁמֵ֣י שְׁמֵי־קֶ֑דֶם הֵ֥ן יִתֵּ֥ן בְּ֝קֹולֹו קֹ֣ול עֹֽז׃

35 Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, -- the ùGod of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!

35 תְּנ֥וּ עֹ֗ז לֵֽאלֹ֫הִ֥ים עַֽל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֥ל גַּאֲוָתֹ֑ו וְ֝עֻזֹּ֗ו בַּשְּׁחָקִֽים׃
