תהילים 56

לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־יוֹנַת אֵלֶם רְחֹקִים לְדָוִד מִכְתָּם בֶּאֱחֹז אוֹתוֹ פְלִשְׁתִּים בְּגַת׃

Lamnatzei'ach al yonat elem rechokim leDavid michtam, be'echoz oto Felishtim beGat.

For the leader; on yonath elem rehokim. Of David. A michtam; when the Philistines seized him in Gath.

חָנֵּנִי אֱלֹהִים כִּי־שְׁאָפַנִי אֱנוֹשׁ כָּל־הַיּוֹם לֹחֵם יִלְחָצֵנִי׃

Choneni Elohim ki she'afani enosh, kol hayom lochem yilchatzeni.

Have mercy on me, O God, for men persecute me; all day long my adversary oppresses me.

שָׁאֲפוּ שׁוֹרְרַי כָּל־הַיּוֹם כִּי־רַבִּים לֹחֲמִים לִי מָרוֹם׃

Sha'afu shorerai kol hayom, ki rabim lochamim li marom.

My watchful foes persecute me all day long; many are my arrogant assailants.

יוֹם אִירָא אֲנִי אֵלֶיךָ אֶבְטָח׃

Yom ira ani elecha evtach.

When I am afraid, I trust in You,

בֵּאלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּל דְּבָרוֹ בֵּאלֹהִים בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה בָשָׂר לִי׃

BElohim ahalel devaro, bElohim batachti lo ira, ma ya'ase vasar li.

in God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid; what can mortals do to me?

כָּל־הַיּוֹם דְּבָרַי יְעַצֵּבוּ עָלַי כָּל־מַחְשְׁבֹתָם לָרָע׃

Kol hayom devarai ye'atzevu, alai kol machshevotam lara.

All day long they cause me grief in their plotting; all their schemes against me are evil.

יָגוּרוּ יִצְפּוֹנוּ הֵמָּה עֲקֵבַי יִשְׁמֹרוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר קִוּוּ נַפְשִׁי׃

Yaguru yitzponu hema akevai yishmoru, ka'asher kivu nafshi.

They conspire, they lie in wait; they watch my every step, hoping to take my life.

עַל־אָוֶן פַּלֶּט־לָמוֹ בְּאַף עַמִּים הוֹרֵד אֱלֹהִים׃

Al aven palet lamo, be'af amim hored Elohim.

Cast them out for their iniquity; in Your anger, O God, bring peoples down!

נֹדִי סָפַרְתָּה אָתָּה שִׂימָה דִמְעָתִי בְנֹאדֶךָ הֲלֹא בְּסִפְרָתֶךָ׃

Nodi safarta ata, sima dim'ati veno'decha, halo besifratecha.

You keep count of my wanderings; put my tears in Your flask, in Your record.

אָז יָשׁוּבוּ אוֹיְבַי אָחוֹר בְּיוֹם אֶקְרָא זֶה־יָדַעְתִּי כִּי־אֱלֹהִים לִי׃

Az yashuvu oyvai achor beyom ekra, ze yadati ki Elohim li.

Then my enemies will retreat when I call on You; this I know, that God is for me.

בֵּאלֹהִים אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָר בַּיהוָה אֲהַלֵּל דָּבָר׃

BElohim ahalel davar, baAdonai ahalel davar.

In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise,

בֵּאלֹהִים בָּטַחְתִּי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה אָדָם לִי׃

BElohim batachti lo ira, ma ya'ase adam li.

in God I trust; I am not afraid; what can man do to me?

עָלַי אֱלֹהִים נְדָרֶיךָ אֲשַׁלֵּם תּוֹדֹת לָךְ׃

Alai Elohim nedarecha, ashalem todot lach.

I must pay my vows to You, O God; I will render thank offerings to You.

כִּי הִצַּלְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִמָּוֶת הֲלֹא רַגְלַי מִדֶּחִי לְהִתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהִים בְּאוֹר הַחַיִּים׃

Ki hitzalta nafshi mimavet, halo raglai midechi, lehithalech lifnei Elohim be'or hachayim.

For You have saved my life from death, my foot from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
