| 1 | לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ עַֽל־ הַשְּׁמִינִ֗ית מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ הוֹשִׁ֣יעָה יְ֭הוָה כִּי־ גָמַ֣ר חָסִ֑יד כִּי־ פַ֥סּוּ אֱ֝מוּנִ֗ים מִבְּנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ | Save, O LORD, for the godly one is gone; for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man. | For the director of music. According to sheminith. A psalm of David. Help, LORD, for no one is faithful anymore; those who are loyal have vanished from the human race. | |
| 2 | שָׁ֤וְא ׀ יְֽדַבְּרוּ֮ אִ֤ישׁ אֶת־ רֵ֫עֵ֥הוּ שְׂפַ֥ת חֲלָק֑וֹת בְּלֵ֖ב וָלֵ֣ב יְדַבֵּֽרוּ׃ | Everyone utters lies to his neighbor; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak. | Everyone lies to their neighbor; they flatter with their lips but harbor deception in their hearts. | |
| 3 | יַכְרֵ֣ת יְ֭הוָה כָּל־ שִׂפְתֵ֣י חֲלָק֑וֹת לָ֝שׁ֗וֹן מְדַבֶּ֥רֶת גְּדֹלֽוֹת׃ | May the LORD cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that makes great boasts, | May the LORD silence all flattering lips and every boastful tongue— | |
| 4 | אֲשֶׁ֤ר אָֽמְר֨וּ ׀ לִלְשֹׁנֵ֣נוּ נַ֭גְבִּיר שְׂפָתֵ֣ינוּ אִתָּ֑נוּ מִ֖י אָד֣וֹן לָֽנוּ׃ | those who say, “With our tongue we will prevail, our lips are with us; who is master over us?” | those who say, “By our tongues we will prevail; our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?” | |
| 5 | מִשֹּׁ֥ד עֲנִיִּים֮ מֵאַנְקַ֪ת אֶבְי֫וֹנִ֥ים עַתָּ֣ה אָ֭קוּם יֹאמַ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה אָשִׁ֥ית בְּ֝יֵ֗שַׁע יָפִ֥יחַֽ לֽוֹ׃ | “Because the poor are plundered, because the needy groan, I will now arise,” says the LORD; “I will place him in the safety for which he longs.” | “Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan, I will now arise,” says the LORD. “I will protect them from those who malign them.” | |
| 6 | אִֽמֲר֣וֹת יְהוָה֮ אֲמָר֪וֹת טְהֹ֫ר֥וֹת כֶּ֣סֶף צָ֭רוּף בַּעֲלִ֣יל לָאָ֑רֶץ מְ֝זֻקָּ֗ק שִׁבְעָתָֽיִם׃ | The words of the LORD are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times. | And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times. | |
| 7 | אַתָּֽה־ יְהוָ֥ה תִּשְׁמְרֵ֑ם תִּצְּרֶ֓נּוּ ׀ מִן־ הַדּ֖וֹר ז֣וּ לְעוֹלָֽם׃ | You, O LORD, will keep them; you will guard us from this generation forever. | You, LORD, will keep the needy safe and will protect us forever from the wicked, | |
| 8 | סָבִ֗יב רְשָׁעִ֥ים יִתְהַלָּכ֑וּן כְּרֻ֥ם זֻ֝לּ֗וּת לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ | On every side the wicked prowl, as vileness is exalted among the children of man. | who freely strut about when what is vile is honored by the human race. | |
