shir mizmor ledavid
A Song, a Psalm of David.
2נָכ֣וֹן לִבִּ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים אָשִׁ֥ירָה וַ֝אֲזַמְּרָ֗ה אַף־כְּבוֹדִֽי׃
nakhon libbi elohim ashira va'azammera af-kevodi
My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
3ע֭וּרָֽה הַנֵּ֥בֶל וְכִנּ֗וֹר אָעִ֥ירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃
ura hannevel vekhinnor a'ira shachar
Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn.
4אוֹדְךָ֖ בָעַמִּ֥ים ׀ יְהוָ֑ה וַ֝אֲזַמֶּרְךָ֗ בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃
odkha va'ammim ADONAI va'azammerkha bal-ummim
I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the peoples; And I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations.
5כִּֽי־גָד֣וֹל מֵֽעַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃
ki-gadol me'al-shamayim chasdekha ve'ad-shechakim amittekha
For Thy mercy is great above the heavens, And Thy truth reacheth unto the skies.
6ר֣וּמָה עַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃
ruma al-shamayim elohim ve'al kal-ha'aretz kevodekha
Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; And Thy glory be above all the earth.
7לְ֭מַעַן יֵחָלְצ֣וּן יְדִידֶ֑יךָ הוֹשִׁ֖יעָה יְמִֽינְךָ֣ וַעֲנֵֽנִי׃
lema'an yechaltzun yedidekha hoshi'a yeminkha va'aneni
That Thy beloved may be delivered, Save with Thy right hand, and answer me.
8אֱלֹהִ֤ים ׀ דִּבֶּ֥ר בְּקָדְשׁ֗וֹ אֶעְלֹ֥זָה אֲחַלְּקָ֥ה שְׁכֶ֑ם וְעֵ֖מֶק סֻכּ֣וֹת אֲמַדֵּֽד׃
elohim dibber bekadsho e'loza achalleka shekhem ve'emek sukkot amadded
God spoke in His holiness, that I would exult; That I would divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
9לִ֤י גִלְעָ֨ד ׀ לִ֤י מְנַשֶּׁ֗ה וְ֭אֶפְרַיִם מָע֣וֹז רֹאשִׁ֑י יְ֝הוּדָ֗ה מְחֹקְקִֽי׃
li gil'ad li menashe ve'efrayim ma'oz roshi yehuda mechokki
Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.
10מוֹאָ֤ב ׀ סִ֬יר רַחְצִ֗י עַל־אֱ֭דוֹם אַשְׁלִ֣יךְ נַעֲלִ֑י עֲלֵֽי־פְ֝לֶ֗שֶׁת אֶתְרוֹעָֽע׃
mo'av sir rachtzi al-edom ashlikh na'ali ale-feleshet etro'a'
Moab is my washpot; Upon Edom do I cast my shoe; Over Philistia do I cry aloud.
11מִ֣י יֹ֭בִלֵנִי עִ֣יר מִבְצָ֑ר מִ֖י נָחַ֣נִי עַד־אֱדֽוֹם׃
mi yovileni ir mivtzar mi nachani ad-edom
Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me unto Edom?
12הֲלֹֽא־אֱלֹהִ֥ים זְנַחְתָּ֑נוּ וְֽלֹא־תֵצֵ֥א אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים בְּצִבְאֹתֵֽינוּ׃
halo-elohim zenachtanu velo-tetze elohim betziv'otenu
Hast not Thou cast us off, O God? And Thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts?
13הָֽבָה־לָּ֣נוּ עֶזְרָ֣ת מִצָּ֑ר וְ֝שָׁ֗וְא תְּשׁוּעַ֥ת אָדָֽם׃
hava-lanu ezrat mitzar veshav teshu'at adam
Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man.
14בֵּֽאלֹהִ֥ים נַעֲשֶׂה־חָ֑יִל וְ֝ה֗וּא יָב֥וּס צָרֵֽינוּ׃
belohim na'ase-chayil vehu yavus tzarenu
Through God we shall do valiantly; For He it is that will tread down our adversaries.
