1For the choir director: A psalm of David, regarding the time Saul sent soldiers to watch David's house in order to kill him. To be sung to the tune "Do Not Destroy!" Rescue me from my enemies, O God. Protect me from those who have come to destroy me.1לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ אַל־ תַּשְׁחֵת֮ לְדָוִ֪ד מִ֫כְתָּ֥ם בִּשְׁלֹ֥חַ שָׁא֑וּל וַֽיִּשְׁמְר֥וּ אֶת־ הַ֝בַּ֗יִת לַהֲמִיתֽוֹ׃ הַצִּילֵ֖נִי מֵאֹיְבַ֥י ׀ אֱלֹהָ֑י מִּמִתְקוֹמְמַ֥י תְּשַׂגְּבֵֽנִי׃
2Rescue me from these criminals; save me from these murderers.2הַ֭צִּילֵנִי מִפֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וּֽמֵאַנְשֵׁ֥י דָ֝מִ֗ים הוֹשִׁיעֵֽנִי׃
3They have set an ambush for me. Fierce enemies are out there waiting, LORD, though I have not sinned or offended them.3כִּ֤י הִנֵּ֪ה אָֽרְב֡וּ לְנַפְשִׁ֗י יָג֣וּרוּ עָלַ֣י עַזִ֑ים לֹא־ פִשְׁעִ֖י וְלֹא־ חַטָּאתִ֣י יְהוָֽה׃
4I have done nothing wrong, yet they prepare to attack me. Wake up! See what is happening and help me!4בְּֽלִי־ עָ֭וֺן יְרוּצ֣וּן וְיִכּוֹנָ֑נוּ ע֖וּרָה לִקְרָאתִ֣י וּרְאֵה׃‪‬
5O LORD God of Heaven's Armies, the God of Israel, wake up and punish those hostile nations. Show no mercy to wicked traitors. Interlude5וְאַתָּ֤ה יְהוָֽה־ אֱלֹהִ֥ים ׀ צְבָא֡וֹת אֱלֹ֘הֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל הָקִ֗יצָה לִפְקֹ֥ד כָּֽל־ הַגּוֹיִ֑ם אַל־ תָּחֹ֨ן כָּל־ בֹּ֖גְדֵי אָ֣וֶן סֶֽלָה׃
6They come out at night, snarling like vicious dogs as they prowl the streets.6יָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיס֥וֹבְבוּ עִֽיר׃
7Listen to the filth that comes from their mouths; their words cut like swords. "After all, who can hear us?" they sneer.7הִנֵּ֤ה ׀ יַבִּ֘יע֤וּן בְּפִיהֶ֗ם חֲ֭רָבוֹת בְּשִׂפְתוֹתֵיהֶ֑ם כִּי־ מִ֥י שֹׁמֵֽעַ׃
8But LORD, you laugh at them. You scoff at all the hostile nations.8וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תִּשְׂחַק־ לָ֑מוֹ תִּ֝לְעַ֗ג לְכָל־ גּוֹיִֽם׃
9You are my strength; I wait for you to rescue me, for you, O God, are my fortress.9עֻ֭זּוֹ אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֶשְׁמֹ֑רָה כִּֽי־ אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים מִשְׂגַּבִּֽי׃
10In his unfailing love, my God will stand with me. He will let me look down in triumph on all my enemies.10אֱלֹהֵ֣י חסדו [חַסְדִּ֣י] (יְקַדְּמֵ֑נִי) אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים יַרְאֵ֥נִי בְשֹׁרְרָֽי׃
11Don't kill them, for my people soon forget such lessons; stagger them with your power, and bring them to their knees, O Lord our shield.11אַל־ תַּהַרְגֵ֤ם ׀ פֶּֽן־ יִשְׁכְּח֬וּ עַמִּ֗י הֲנִיעֵ֣מוֹ בְ֭חֵילְךָ וְהוֹרִידֵ֑מוֹ מָֽגִנֵּ֣נוּ אֲדֹנָֽי׃
12Because of the sinful things they say, because of the evil that is on their lips, let them be captured by their pride, their curses, and their lies.12חַטַּאת־ פִּ֗ימוֹ דְּֽבַר־ שְׂפָ֫תֵ֥ימוֹ וְיִלָּכְד֥וּ בִגְאוֹנָ֑ם וּמֵאָלָ֖ה וּמִכַּ֣חַשׁ יְסַפֵּֽרוּ׃
13Destroy them in your anger! Wipe them out completely! Then the whole world will know that God reigns in Israel. Interlude13כַּלֵּ֥ה בְחֵמָה֮ כַּלֵּ֪ה וְֽאֵ֫ינֵ֥מוֹ וְֽיֵדְע֗וּ כִּֽי־ אֱ֭לֹהִים מֹשֵׁ֣ל בְּיַעֲקֹ֑ב לְאַפְסֵ֖י הָאָ֣רֶץ סֶֽלָה׃
14My enemies come out at night, snarling like vicious dogs as they prowl the streets.14וְיָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיס֥וֹבְבוּ עִֽיר׃
15They scavenge for food but go to sleep unsatisfied.15הֵ֭מָּה ינועון [יְנִיע֣וּן] (לֶאֱכֹ֑ל) אִם־ לֹ֥א יִ֝שְׂבְּע֗וּ וַיָּלִֽינוּ׃
16But as for me, I will sing about your power. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress.16וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ אָשִׁ֣יר עֻזֶּךָ֮ וַאֲרַנֵּ֥ן לַבֹּ֗קֶר חַ֫סְדֶּ֥ךָ כִּֽי־ הָיִ֣יתָ מִשְׂגָּ֣ב לִ֑י וּ֝מָנ֗וֹס בְּי֣וֹם צַר־ לִֽי׃
17O my Strength, to you I sing praises, for you, O God, are my refuge, the God who shows me unfailing love.17עֻ֭זִּי אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֲזַמֵּ֑רָה כִּֽי־ אֱלֹהִ֥ים מִ֝שְׂגַּבִּ֗י אֱלֹהֵ֥י חַסְדִּֽי׃
