Psalms 30 תְּהִלִּים

¹מִזְמ֡וֹר שִׁיר־חֲנֻכַּ֖ת הַבַּ֣יִת לְדָוִֽד׃

mizmor shir-chanukkat habbayit ledavid

1A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House; of David.

²אֲרוֹמִמְךָ֣ יְ֭הוָה כִּ֣י דִלִּיתָ֑נִי וְלֹא־שִׂמַּ֖חְתָּ אֹיְבַ֣י לִֽי׃

aromimkha ADONAI ki dillitani velo-simmachta oyvay li

2I will extol thee, O LORD, for Thou hast raised me up, and hast not suffered mine enemies to rejoice over me.

³יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָ֑י שִׁוַּ֥עְתִּי אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ וַתִּרְפָּאֵֽנִי׃

ADONAI elohay shivva'ti elekha vattirpa'eni

3O LORD my God, I cried unto Thee, and Thou didst heal me;

⁴יְֽהוָ֗ה הֶֽעֱלִ֣יתָ מִן־שְׁא֣וֹל נַפְשִׁ֑י חִ֝יִּיתַ֗נִי מיורדי [מִיָּֽרְדִי]־בֽוֹר׃

ADONAI he'elita min-sheol nafshi chiyyitani miyyardi-vor

4O LORD, Thou broughtest up my soul from the nether-world; Thou didst kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

⁵זַמְּר֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חֲסִידָ֑יו וְ֝הוֹד֗וּ לְזֵ֣כֶר קָדְשֽׁוֹ׃

zammeru laADONAI chasidav vehodu lezekher kadsho

5Sing praise unto the LORD, O ye His godly ones, and give thanks to His holy name.

⁶כִּ֤י רֶ֨גַע ׀ בְּאַפּוֹ֮ חַיִּ֪ים בִּרְצ֫וֹנ֥וֹ בָּ֭עֶרֶב יָלִ֥ין בֶּ֗כִי וְלַבֹּ֥קֶר רִנָּֽה׃

ki rega' be'appo chayyim birtzono ba'erev yalin bekhi velabboker rinna

6For His anger is but for a moment, His favour is for a life-time; weeping may tarry for the night, but joy cometh in the morning.

⁷וַ֭אֲנִי אָמַ֣רְתִּי בְשַׁלְוִ֑י בַּל־אֶמּ֥וֹט לְעוֹלָֽם׃

va'ani amarti veshalvi bal-emmot le'olam

7Now I had said in my security: 'I shall never be moved.'

⁸יְֽהוָ֗ה בִּרְצוֹנְךָ֮ הֶעֱמַ֪דְתָּה לְֽהַרְרִ֫י עֹ֥ז הִסְתַּ֥רְתָּ פָנֶ֗יךָ הָיִ֥יתִי נִבְהָֽל׃

ADONAI birtzonkha he'emadta leharri oz histarta fanekha hayiti nivhal

8Thou hadst established, O LORD, in Thy favour my mountain as a stronghold— Thou didst hide Thy face; I was affrighted.

⁹אֵלֶ֣יךָ יְהוָ֣ה אֶקְרָ֑א וְאֶל־אֲ֝דֹנָ֗י אֶתְחַנָּֽן׃

elekha ADONAI ekra ve'el-adonay etchannan

9Unto Thee, O LORD, did I call, And unto the LORD I made supplication:

¹⁰מַה־בֶּ֥צַע בְּדָמִי֮ בְּרִדְתִּ֪י אֶ֫ל־שָׁ֥חַת הֲיוֹדְךָ֥ עָפָ֑ר הֲיַגִּ֥יד אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

ma-betza' bedami beridti el-shachat hayodkha afar hayaggid amittekha

10'What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise Thee? shall it declare Thy truth?

¹¹שְׁמַע־יְהוָ֥ה וְחָנֵּ֑נִי יְ֝הוָה הֱֽיֵה־עֹזֵ֥ר לִֽי׃

shema'-ADONAI vechanneni ADONAI heye-ozer li

11Hear, O LORD, and be gracious unto me; LORD, be Thou my helper.'

¹²הָפַ֣כְתָּ מִסְפְּדִי֮ לְמָח֪וֹל לִ֥י פִּתַּ֥חְתָּ שַׂקִּ֑י וַֽתְּאַזְּרֵ֥נִי שִׂמְחָֽה׃

hafakhta mispedi lemachol li pittachta sakki vatte'azzereni simcha

12Thou didst turn for me my mourning into dancing; Thou didst loose my sackcloth, and gird me with gladness;

¹³לְמַ֤עַן ׀ יְזַמֶּרְךָ֣ כָ֭בוֹד וְלֹ֣א יִדֹּ֑ם יְהוָ֥ה אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י לְעוֹלָ֥ם אוֹדֶֽךָּ׃

lema'an yezammerkha khavod velo yiddom ADONAI elohay le'olam odekka

13So that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent; O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto Thee for ever.
