1In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame. 1בְּךָֽ־ יְהוָ֥ה חָסִ֑יתִי אַל־ אֵב֥וֹשָׁה לְעוֹלָֽם׃
2In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me. 2בְּצִדְקָתְךָ֗ תַּצִּילֵ֥נִי וּֽתְפַלְּטֵ֑נִי הַטֵּֽה־ אֵלַ֥י אָ֝זְנְךָ֗ וְהוֹשִׁיעֵֽנִי׃
3Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress. 3הֱיֵ֤ה לִ֨י ׀ לְצ֥וּר מָע֡וֹן לָב֗וֹא תָּמִ֗יד צִוִּ֥יתָ לְהוֹשִׁיעֵ֑נִי כִּֽי־ סַלְעִ֖י וּמְצוּדָתִ֣י אָֽתָּה׃
4Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless. 4אֱ‍ֽלֹהַ֗י פַּ֭לְּטֵנִי מִיַּ֣ד רָשָׁ֑ע מִכַּ֖ף מְעַוֵּ֣ל וְחוֹמֵץ׃‪‬
5For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth. 5כִּֽי־ אַתָּ֥ה תִקְוָתִ֑י אֲדֹנָ֥י יְ֝הוִ֗ה מִבְטַחִ֥י מִנְּעוּרָֽי׃
6I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You. 6עָלֶ֤יךָ ׀ נִסְמַ֬כְתִּי מִבֶּ֗טֶן מִמְּעֵ֣י אִ֭מִּי אַתָּ֣ה גוֹזִ֑י בְּךָ֖ תְהִלָּתִ֣י תָמִֽיד׃
7I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge. 7כְּ֭מוֹפֵת הָיִ֣יתִי לְרַבִּ֑ים וְ֝אַתָּ֗ה מַֽחֲסִי־ עֹֽז׃
8My mouth is filled [with] Your praise [and with] Your splendor all day long. 8יִמָּ֣לֵא פִ֭י תְּהִלָּתֶ֑ךָ כָּל־ הַ֝יּ֗וֹם תִּפְאַרְתֶּֽךָ׃
9Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails. 9אַֽל־ תַּ֭שְׁלִיכֵנִי לְעֵ֣ת זִקְנָ֑ה כִּכְל֥וֹת כֹּ֝חִ֗י אַֽל־ תַּעַזְבֵֽנִי׃
10For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire, 10כִּֽי־ אָמְר֣וּ אוֹיְבַ֣י לִ֑י וְשֹׁמְרֵ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י נוֹעֲצ֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃
11saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.” 11לֵ֭אמֹר אֱלֹהִ֣ים עֲזָב֑וֹ רִֽדְפ֥וּ וְ֝תִפְשׂ֗וּהוּ כִּי־ אֵ֥ין מַצִּֽיל׃
12Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me. 12אֱ֭לֹהִים אַל־ תִּרְחַ֣ק מִמֶּ֑נִּי אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י לְעֶזְרָ֥תִי חישה [חֽוּשָׁה׃]
13May the accusers of my soul be ashamed [and] consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace. 13(יֵבֹ֣שׁוּ) יִכְלוּ֮ שֹׂטְנֵ֪י נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י יַֽעֲט֣וּ חֶ֭רְפָּה וּכְלִמָּ֑ה מְ֝בַקְשֵׁ֗י רָעָתִֽי׃
14But I will always hope and will praise You more and more. 14וַ֭אֲנִי תָּמִ֣יד אֲיַחֵ֑ל וְ֝הוֹסַפְתִּ֗י עַל־ כָּל־ תְּהִלָּתֶֽךָ׃
15My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure. 15פִּ֤י ׀ יְסַפֵּ֬ר צִדְקָתֶ֗ךָ כָּל־ הַיּ֥וֹם תְּשׁוּעָתֶ֑ךָ כִּ֤י לֹ֖א יָדַ֣עְתִּי סְפֹרֽוֹת׃
16I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness— Yours alone. 16אָב֗וֹא בִּ֭גְבֻרוֹת אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֑ה אַזְכִּ֖יר צִדְקָתְךָ֣ לְבַדֶּֽךָ׃
17O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds. 17אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים לִמַּדְתַּ֥נִי מִנְּעוּרָ֑י וְעַד־ הֵ֝֗נָּה אַגִּ֥יד נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃
18Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come. 18וְגַ֤ם עַד־ זִקְנָ֨ה ׀ וְשֵׂיבָה֮ אֱלֹהִ֪ים אַֽל־ תַּעַ֫זְבֵ֥נִי עַד־ אַגִּ֣יד זְרוֹעֲךָ֣ לְד֑וֹר לְכָל־ יָ֝ב֗וֹא גְּבוּרָתֶֽךָ׃
19Your righteousness [reaches] to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You? 19וְצִדְקָתְךָ֥ אֱלֹהִ֗ים עַד־ מָ֫ר֥וֹם אֲשֶׁר־ עָשִׂ֥יתָ גְדֹל֑וֹת אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים מִ֣י כָמֽוֹךָ׃
20Though you have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up. 20אֲשֶׁ֤ר הראיתנו [הִרְאִיתַ֨נִי ׀] (צָר֥וֹת) רַבּ֗וֹת וְרָ֫ע֥וֹת תָּשׁ֥וּב תחיינו [תְּחַיֵּ֑ינִי] (וּֽמִתְּהֹמ֥וֹת) הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ תָּשׁ֥וּב תַּעֲלֵֽנִי׃
21You will increase my honor and comfort me once again. 21תֶּ֤רֶב ׀ גְּֽדֻלָּתִ֗י וְתִסֹּ֥ב תְּֽנַחֲמֵֽנִי׃
22So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel. 22גַּם־ אֲנִ֤י ׀ אוֹדְךָ֣ בִכְלִי־ נֶבֶל֮ אֲמִתְּךָ֪ אֱלֹ֫הָ֥י אֲזַמְּרָ֣ה לְךָ֣ בְכִנּ֑וֹר קְ֝ד֗וֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
23My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to You, along with my soul which You have redeemed. 23תְּרַנֵּ֣נָּ֣ה שְׂ֭פָתַי כִּ֣י אֲזַמְּרָה־ לָּ֑ךְ וְ֝נַפְשִׁ֗י אֲשֶׁ֣ר פָּדִֽיתָ׃
24My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded. 24גַּם־ לְשׁוֹנִ֗י כָּל־ הַ֭יּוֹם תֶּהְגֶּ֣ה צִדְקָתֶ֑ךָ כִּי־ בֹ֥שׁוּ כִֽי־ חָ֝פְר֗וּ מְבַקְשֵׁ֥י רָעָתִֽי׃
