NASB Parallel HEB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New American Standard Bible 1995Hebrew Study Bible
1"My spirit is broken, my days are extinguished, The grave is ready for me.1רוּחִ֣י חֻ֭בָּלָה יָמַ֥י נִזְעָ֗כוּ קְבָרִ֥ים לִֽי׃
2"Surely mockers are with me, And my eye gazes on their provocation.2אִם־ לֹ֣א הֲ֭תֻלִים עִמָּדִ֑י וּ֝בְהַמְּרוֹתָ֗ם תָּלַ֥ן עֵינִֽי׃
3"Lay down, now, a pledge for me with Yourself; Who is there that will be my guarantor?3שִֽׂימָה־ נָּ֭א עָרְבֵ֣נִי עִמָּ֑ךְ מִֽי ה֝֗וּא לְיָדִ֥י יִתָּקֵֽעַ׃
4"For You have kept their heart from understanding, Therefore You will not exalt them.4כִּֽי־ לִ֭בָּם צָפַ֣נְתָּ מִּשָּׂ֑כֶל עַל־ כֵּ֝֗ן לֹ֣א תְרֹמֵֽם׃
5"He who informs against friends for a share of the spoil, The eyes of his children also will languish.5לְ֭חֵלֶק יַגִּ֣יד רֵעִ֑ים וְעֵינֵ֖י בָנָ֣יו תִּכְלֶֽנָה׃
6"But He has made me a byword of the people, And I am one at whom men spit.6וְֽ֭הִצִּגַנִי לִמְשֹׁ֣ל עַמִּ֑ים וְתֹ֖פֶת לְפָנִ֣ים אֶֽהְיֶֽה׃
7"My eye has also grown dim because of grief, And all my members are as a shadow.7וַתֵּ֣כַהּ מִכַּ֣עַשׂ עֵינִ֑י וִֽיצֻרַ֖י כַּצֵּ֣ל כֻּלָּֽם׃
8"The upright will be appalled at this, And the innocent will stir up himself against the godless.8יָשֹׁ֣מּוּ יְשָׁרִ֣ים עַל־ זֹ֑את וְ֝נָקִ֗י עַל־ חָנֵ֥ף יִתְעֹרָֽר׃
9"Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his way, And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.9וְיֹאחֵ֣ז צַדִּ֣יק דַּרְכּ֑וֹ וּֽטֳהָר־ יָ֝דַ֗יִם יֹסִ֥יף אֹֽמֶץ׃
10"But come again all of you now, For I do not find a wise man among you.10וְֽאוּלָ֗ם כֻּלָּ֣ם תָּ֭שֻׁבוּ וּבֹ֣אוּ נָ֑א וְלֹֽא־ אֶמְצָ֖א בָכֶ֣ם חָכָֽם׃
11"My days are past, my plans are torn apart, Even the wishes of my heart.11יָמַ֣י עָ֭בְרוּ זִמֹּתַ֣י נִתְּק֑וּ מ֖וֹרָשֵׁ֣י לְבָבִֽי׃
12"They make night into day, saying, 'The light is near,' in the presence of darkness.12לַ֭יְלָה לְי֣וֹם יָשִׂ֑ימוּ א֝֗וֹר קָר֥וֹב מִפְּנֵי־ חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃
13"If I look for Sheol as my home, I make my bed in the darkness;13אִם־ אֲ֭קַוֶּה שְׁא֣וֹל בֵּיתִ֑י בַּ֝חֹ֗שֶׁךְ רִפַּ֥דְתִּי יְצוּעָֽי׃
14If I call to the pit, 'You are my father'; To the worm, 'my mother and my sister';14לַשַּׁ֣חַת קָ֭רָאתִי אָ֣בִי אָ֑תָּה אִמִּ֥י וַ֝אֲחֹתִ֗י לָֽרִמָּֽה׃
15Where now is my hope? And who regards my hope?15וְ֭אַיֵּה אֵפ֣וֹ תִקְוָתִ֑י וְ֝תִקְוָתִ֗י מִ֣י יְשׁוּרֶֽנָּה׃
16"Will it go down with me to Sheol? Shall we together go down into the dust?"16בַּדֵּ֣י שְׁאֹ֣ל תֵּרַ֑דְנָה אִם־ יַ֖חַד עַל־ עָפָ֣ר נָֽחַת׃ ס
