English Standard VersionHebrew Study Bible
1Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The steadfast love of God endures all the day.1לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מַשְׂכִּ֥יל לְדָוִֽד׃ בְּב֤וֹא ׀ דּוֹאֵ֣ג הָאֲדֹמִי֮ וַיַּגֵּ֪ד לְשָׁ֫א֥וּל וַיֹּ֥אמֶר ל֑וֹ בָּ֥א דָ֝וִ֗ד אֶל־ בֵּ֥ית אֲחִימֶֽלֶךְ׃ מַה־ תִּתְהַלֵּ֣ל בְּ֭רָעָה הַגִּבּ֑וֹר חֶ֥סֶד אֵ֝֗ל כָּל־ הַיּֽוֹם׃
2Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.2הַ֭וּוֹת תַּחְשֹׁ֣ב לְשׁוֹנֶ֑ךָ כְּתַ֥עַר מְ֝לֻטָּ֗שׁ עֹשֵׂ֥ה רְמִיָּֽה׃
3You love evil more than good, and lying more than speaking what is right. Selah3אָהַ֣בְתָּ רָּ֣ע מִטּ֑וֹב שֶׁ֓קֶר ׀ מִדַּבֵּ֖ר צֶ֣דֶק סֶֽלָה׃
4You love all words that devour, O deceitful tongue.4אָהַ֥בְתָּ כָֽל־ דִּבְרֵי־ בָ֗לַע לְשׁ֣וֹן מִרְמָֽה׃
5But God will break you down forever; he will snatch and tear you from your tent; he will uproot you from the land of the living. Selah5גַּם־ אֵל֮ יִתָּצְךָ֪ לָ֫נֶ֥צַח יַחְתְּךָ֣ וְיִסָּחֲךָ֣ מֵאֹ֑הֶל וְשֵֽׁרֶשְׁךָ֨ מֵאֶ֖רֶץ חַיִּ֣ים סֶֽלָה׃
6The righteous shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying,6וְיִרְא֖וּ צַדִּיקִ֥ים וְיִירָ֗אוּ וְעָלָ֥יו יִשְׂחָֽקוּ׃
7“See the man who would not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his riches and sought refuge in his own destruction!”7הִנֵּ֤ה הַגֶּ֗בֶר לֹ֤א יָשִׂ֥ים אֱלֹהִ֗ים מָֽע֫וּזּ֥וֹ וַ֭יִּבְטַח בְּרֹ֣ב עָשְׁר֑וֹ יָ֝עֹ֗ז בְּהַוָּתֽוֹ׃
8But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever.8וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ כְּזַ֣יִת רַ֭עֲנָן בְּבֵ֣ית אֱלֹהִ֑ים בָּטַ֥חְתִּי בְחֶֽסֶד־ אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים עוֹלָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃
9I will thank you forever, because you have done it. I will wait for your name, for it is good, in the presence of the godly.9אוֹדְךָ֣ לְ֭עוֹלָם כִּ֣י עָשִׂ֑יתָ וַאֲקַוֶּ֖ה שִׁמְךָ֥ כִֽי־ ט֝֗וֹב נֶ֣גֶד חֲסִידֶֽיךָ׃
