1I am disgusted with my life. I will express my complaint and speak in the bitterness of my soul. 1נָֽקְטָ֥ה נַפְשִׁ֗י בְּחַ֫יָּ֥י אֶֽעֶזְבָ֣ה עָלַ֣י שִׂיחִ֑י אֲ֝דַבְּרָה֗ בְּמַ֣ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃
2I will say to God: "Do not declare me guilty! Let me know why You prosecute me. 2אֹמַ֣ר אֶל־ אֱ֭לוֹהַּ אַל־ תַּרְשִׁיעֵ֑נִי הֽ֝וֹדִיעֵ֗נִי עַ֣ל מַה־ תְּרִיבֵֽנִי׃
3Is it good for You to oppress, to reject the work of Your hands, and favor the plans of the wicked? 3הֲט֤וֹב לְךָ֨ ׀ כִּֽי־ תַעֲשֹׁ֗ק כִּֽי־ תִ֭מְאַס יְגִ֣יעַ כַּפֶּ֑יךָ וְעַל־ עֲצַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים הוֹפָֽעְתָּ׃
4Do You have eyes of flesh, or do You see as a human sees? 4הַעֵינֵ֣י בָשָׂ֣ר לָ֑ךְ אִם־ כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ תִּרְאֶֽה׃
5Are Your days like those of a human, or Your years like those of a man, 5הֲכִימֵ֣י אֱנ֣וֹשׁ יָמֶ֑יךָ אִם־ שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר׃
6that You look for my wrongdoing and search for my sin, 6כִּֽי־ תְבַקֵּ֥שׁ לַעֲוֺנִ֑י וּ֭לְחַטָּאתִ֥י תִדְרֽוֹשׁ׃
7even though You know that I am not wicked and that there is no one who can deliver from Your hand? 7עַֽל־ דַּ֭עְתְּךָ כִּי־ לֹ֣א אֶרְשָׁ֑ע וְאֵ֖ין מִיָּדְךָ֣ מַצִּֽיל׃
8"Your hands shaped me and formed me. Will You now turn and destroy me? 8יָדֶ֣יךָ עִ֭צְּבוּנִי וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֑וּנִי יַ֥חַד סָ֝בִ֗יב וַֽתְּבַלְּעֵֽנִי׃
9Please remember that You formed me like clay. Will You now return me to dust? 9זְכָר־ נָ֭א כִּי־ כַחֹ֣מֶר עֲשִׂיתָ֑נִי וְֽאֶל־ עָפָ֥ר תְּשִׁיבֵֽנִי׃
10Did You not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese? 10הֲלֹ֣א כֶ֭חָלָב תַּתִּיכֵ֑נִי וְ֝כַגְּבִנָּ֗ה תַּקְפִּיאֵֽנִי׃
11You clothed me with skin and flesh, and wove me together with bones and tendons. 11ע֣וֹר וּ֭בָשָׂר תַּלְבִּישֵׁ֑נִי וּֽבַעֲצָמ֥וֹת וְ֝גִידִ֗ים תְּסֹכְכֵֽנִי׃
12You gave me life and faithful love, and Your care has guarded my life. 12חַיִּ֣ים וָ֭חֶסֶד עָשִׂ֣יתָ עִמָּדִ֑י וּ֝פְקֻדָּתְךָ֗ שָֽׁמְרָ֥ה רוּחִֽי׃
13"Yet You concealed these thoughts in Your heart; I know that this was Your hidden plan: 13וְ֭אֵלֶּה צָפַ֣נְתָּ בִלְבָבֶ֑ךָ יָ֝דַ֗עְתִּי כִּי־ זֹ֥את עִמָּֽךְ׃
14if I sin, You would notice, and would not acquit me of my wrongdoing. 14אִם־ חָטָ֥אתִי וּשְׁמַרְתָּ֑נִי וּ֝מֵעֲוֺנִ֗י לֹ֣א תְנַקֵּֽנִי׃
15If I am wicked, woe to me! And even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head. I am filled with shame and aware of my affliction. 15אִם־ רָשַׁ֡עְתִּי אַלְלַ֬י לִ֗י וְ֭צָדַקְתִּי לֹא־ אֶשָּׂ֣א רֹאשִׁ֑י שְׂבַ֥ע קָ֝ל֗וֹן וּרְאֵ֥ה עָנְיִֽי׃
16If I am proud, You hunt me like a lion and again display Your miraculous power against me. 16וְ֭יִגְאֶה כַּשַּׁ֣חַל תְּצוּדֵ֑נִי וְ֝תָשֹׁ֗ב תִּתְפַּלָּא־ בִֽי׃
17You produce new witnesses against me and multiply Your anger toward me. Hardships assault me, wave after wave. 17תְּחַדֵּ֬שׁ עֵדֶ֨יךָ ׀ נֶגְדִּ֗י וְתֶ֣רֶב כַּֽ֭עַשְׂךָ עִמָּדִ֑י חֲלִיפ֖וֹת וְצָבָ֣א עִמִּֽי׃
18"Why did You bring me out of the womb? I should have died and never been seen. 18וְלָ֣מָּה מֵ֭רֶחֶם הֹצֵאתָ֑נִי אֶ֝גְוַ֗ע וְעַ֣יִן לֹא־ תִרְאֵֽנִי׃
19I wish I had never existed but had been carried from the womb to the grave. 19כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־ הָיִ֣יתִי אֶהְיֶ֑ה מִ֝בֶּ֗טֶן לַקֶּ֥בֶר אוּבָֽל׃
20Are my days not few? Stop it! Leave me alone, so that I can smile a little 20הֲלֹא־ מְעַ֣ט יָמַ֣י [יחדל] (וַחֲדָ֑ל) [ישית] (וְשִׁ֥ית) מִ֝מֶּ֗נִּי וְאַבְלִ֥יגָה מְּעָֽט׃
21before I go to a land of darkness and gloom, never to return. 21בְּטֶ֣רֶם אֵ֭לֵךְ וְלֹ֣א אָשׁ֑וּב אֶל־ אֶ֖רֶץ חֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָֽוֶת׃
22It is a land of blackness like the deepest darkness, gloomy and chaotic, where even the light is like the darkness." 22אֶ֤רֶץ עֵיפָ֨תָה ׀ כְּמ֥וֹ אֹ֗פֶל צַ֭לְמָוֶת וְלֹ֥א סְדָרִ֗ים וַתֹּ֥פַע כְּמוֹ־ אֹֽפֶל׃ פ
