1Written by David, when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, causing the king to send him away. I will praise the LORD at all times; my mouth will continually praise him. 1לְדָוִ֗ד בְּשַׁנּוֹת֣וֹ אֶת־ טַ֭עְמוֹ לִפְנֵ֣י אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ וַֽ֝יְגָרֲשֵׁ֗הוּ וַיֵּלַֽךְ׃ אֲבָרֲכָ֣ה אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה בְּכָל־ עֵ֑ת תָּ֝מִ֗יד תְּֽהִלָּת֥וֹ בְּפִֽי׃
2I will boast in the LORD; let the oppressed hear and rejoice! 2בַּ֭יהוָה תִּתְהַלֵּ֣ל נַפְשִׁ֑י יִשְׁמְע֖וּ עֲנָוִ֣ים וְיִשְׂמָֽחוּ׃
3Magnify the LORD with me! Let's praise his name together! 3גַּדְּל֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה אִתִּ֑י וּנְרוֹמְמָ֖ה שְׁמ֣וֹ יַחְדָּֽו׃
4I sought the LORD's help and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. 4דָּרַ֣שְׁתִּי אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה וְעָנָ֑נִי וּמִכָּל־ מְ֝גוּרוֹתַ֗י הִצִּילָֽנִי׃
5Those who look to him for help are happy; their faces are not ashamed. 5הִבִּ֣יטוּ אֵלָ֣יו וְנָהָ֑רוּ וּ֝פְנֵיהֶ֗ם אַל־ יֶחְפָּֽרוּ׃
6This oppressed man cried out and the LORD heard; he saved him from all his troubles. 6זֶ֤ה עָנִ֣י קָ֭רָא וַיהוָ֣ה שָׁמֵ֑עַ וּמִכָּל־ צָ֝רוֹתָ֗יו הוֹשִׁיעֽוֹ׃
7The LORD's angel camps around the LORD's loyal followers and delivers them. 7חֹנֶ֤ה מַלְאַךְ־ יְהוָ֓ה סָ֘בִ֤יב לִֽירֵאָ֗יו וַֽיְחַלְּצֵֽם׃
8Taste and see that the LORD is good! How blessed is the one who takes shelter in him! 8טַעֲמ֣וּ וּ֭רְאוּ כִּי־ ט֣וֹב יְהוָ֑ה אַֽשְׁרֵ֥י הַ֝גֶּ֗בֶר יֶחֱסֶה־ בּֽוֹ׃
9Remain loyal to the LORD, you chosen people of his, for his loyal followers lack nothing! 9יְר֣אוּ אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה קְדֹשָׁ֑יו כִּי־ אֵ֥ין מַ֝חְס֗וֹר לִירֵאָֽיו׃
10Even young lions sometimes lack food and are hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. 10כְּ֭פִירִים רָשׁ֣וּ וְרָעֵ֑בוּ וְדֹרְשֵׁ֥י יְ֝הוָ֗ה לֹא־ יַחְסְר֥וּ כָל־ טֽוֹב׃
11Come children! Listen to me! I will teach you what it means to fear the LORD. 11לְֽכוּ־ בָ֭נִים שִׁמְעוּ־ לִ֑י יִֽרְאַ֥ת יְ֝הוָ֗ה אֲלַמֶּדְכֶֽם׃
12Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life? 12מִֽי־ הָ֭אִישׁ הֶחָפֵ֣ץ חַיִּ֑ים אֹהֵ֥ב יָ֝מִ֗ים לִרְא֥וֹת טֽוֹב׃
13Then make sure you don't speak evil words or use deceptive speech! 13נְצֹ֣ר לְשׁוֹנְךָ֣ מֵרָ֑ע וּ֝שְׂפָתֶ֗יךָ מִדַּבֵּ֥ר מִרְמָֽה׃
14Turn away from evil and do what is right! Strive for peace and promote it! 14ס֣וּר מֵ֭רָע וַעֲשֵׂה־ ט֑וֹב בַּקֵּ֖שׁ שָׁל֣וֹם וְרָדְפֵֽהוּ׃
15The LORD pays attention to the godly and hears their cry for help. 15עֵינֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה אֶל־ צַדִּיקִ֑ים וְ֝אָזְנָ֗יו אֶל־ שַׁוְעָתָֽם׃
16But the LORD opposes evildoers and wipes out all memory of them from the earth. 16פְּנֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה בְּעֹ֣שֵׂי רָ֑ע לְהַכְרִ֖ית מֵאֶ֣רֶץ זִכְרָֽם׃
17The godly cry out and the LORD hears; he saves them from all their troubles. 17צָעֲק֣וּ וַיהוָ֣ה שָׁמֵ֑עַ וּמִכָּל־ צָ֝רוֹתָ֗ם הִצִּילָֽם׃
18The LORD is near the brokenhearted; he delivers those who are discouraged. 18קָר֣וֹב יְ֭הוָה לְנִשְׁבְּרֵי־ לֵ֑ב וְֽאֶת־ דַּכְּאֵי־ ר֥וּחַ יוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃
19The godly face many dangers, but the LORD saves them from each one of them. 19רַ֭בּוֹת רָע֣וֹת צַדִּ֑יק וּ֝מִכֻּלָּ֗ם יַצִּילֶ֥נּוּ יְהוָֽה׃
20He protects all his bones; not one of them is broken. 20שֹׁמֵ֥ר כָּל־ עַצְמוֹתָ֑יו אַחַ֥ת מֵ֝הֵ֗נָּה לֹ֣א נִשְׁבָּֽרָה׃
21Evil people self-destruct; those who hate the godly are punished. 21תְּמוֹתֵ֣ת רָשָׁ֣ע רָעָ֑ה וְשֹׂנְאֵ֖י צַדִּ֣יק יֶאְשָֽׁמוּ׃
22The LORD rescues his servants; all who take shelter in him escape punishment. 22פּוֹדֶ֣ה יְ֭הוָה נֶ֣פֶשׁ עֲבָדָ֑יו וְלֹ֥א יֶ֝אְשְׁמ֗וּ כָּֽל־ הַחֹסִ֥ים בּֽוֹ׃
