1In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city. Salvation is established as its walls and ramparts. 1בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא יוּשַׁ֥ר הַשִּׁיר־ הַזֶּ֖ה בְּאֶ֣רֶץ יְהוּדָ֑ה עִ֣יר עָז־ לָ֔נוּ יְשׁוּעָ֥ה יָשִׁ֖ית חוֹמ֥וֹת וָחֵֽל׃
2Open the gates that a righteous nation may enter— one that remains faithful. 2פִּתְח֖וּ שְׁעָרִ֑ים וְיָבֹ֥א גוֹי־ צַדִּ֖יק שֹׁמֵ֥ר אֱמֻנִֽים׃
3The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in You. 3יֵ֣צֶר סָמ֔וּךְ תִּצֹּ֖ר שָׁל֣וֹם ׀ שָׁל֑וֹם כִּ֥י בְךָ֖ בָּטֽוּחַ׃
4Trust in the LORD forever, because GOD the LORD [is] the Rock eternal. 4בִּטְח֥וּ בַֽיהוָ֖ה עֲדֵי־ עַ֑ד כִּ֚י בְּיָ֣הּ יְהוָ֔ה צ֖וּר עוֹלָמִֽים׃
5For He has humbled those who dwell on high— He lays the lofty city {low}. He brings it down to the ground; He casts it into the dust. 5כִּ֤י הֵשַׁח֙ יֹשְׁבֵ֣י מָר֔וֹם קִרְיָ֖ה נִשְׂגָּבָ֑ה יַשְׁפִּילֶ֤נָּה יַשְׁפִּילָהּ֙ עַד־ אֶ֔רֶץ יַגִּיעֶ֖נָּה עַד־ עָפָֽר׃
6Feet trample it down— the feet of the oppressed, the steps of the poor. 6תִּרְמְסֶ֖נָּה רָ֑גֶל רַגְלֵ֥י עָנִ֖י פַּעֲמֵ֥י דַלִּֽים׃
7The path of the righteous is level; You clear a straight path for the righteous. 7אֹ֥רַח לַצַּדִּ֖יק מֵֽישָׁרִ֑ים יָשָׁ֕ר מַעְגַּ֥ל צַדִּ֖יק תְּפַלֵּֽס׃
8Yes, we wait for You, O LORD; [we walk] in the path of Your judgments. Your name and renown are the desire of [our] souls. 8אַ֣ף אֹ֧רַח מִשְׁפָּטֶ֛יךָ יְהוָ֖ה קִוִּינ֑וּךָ לְשִׁמְךָ֥ וּֽלְזִכְרְךָ֖ תַּאֲוַת־ נָֽפֶשׁ׃
9My soul longs [for You] in the night; indeed, my spirit within me diligently seeks You. For when Your judgments [come] upon the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. 9נַפְשִׁ֤י אִוִּיתִ֙יךָ֙ בַּלַּ֔יְלָה אַף־ רוּחִ֥י בְקִרְבִּ֖י אֲשַֽׁחֲרֶ֑ךָּ כִּ֞י כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר מִשְׁפָּטֶ֙יךָ֙ לָאָ֔רֶץ צֶ֥דֶק לָמְד֖וּ יֹשְׁבֵ֥י תֵבֵֽל׃
10Though grace is shown to the wicked man, he does not learn righteousness. In the land of righteousness he acts unjustly and fails to see the majesty of the LORD. 10יֻחַ֤ן רָשָׁע֙ בַּל־ לָמַ֣ד צֶ֔דֶק בְּאֶ֥רֶץ נְכֹח֖וֹת יְעַוֵּ֑ל וּבַל־ יִרְאֶ֖ה גֵּא֥וּת יְהוָֽה׃ ס
11O LORD, Your hand is upraised, but they do not see it. They will see Your zeal for Your people, and be put to shame. The fire set for Your enemies will consume them! 11יְהוָ֛ה רָ֥מָה יָדְךָ֖ בַּל־ יֶחֱזָי֑וּן יֶחֱז֤וּ וְיֵבֹ֙שׁוּ֙ קִנְאַת־ עָ֔ם אַף־ אֵ֖שׁ צָרֶ֥יךָ תֹאכְלֵֽם׃ ס
12O LORD, You will establish peace for us, for, indeed, all that we have accomplished, You have done for us. 12יְהוָ֕ה תִּשְׁפֹּ֥ת שָׁל֖וֹם לָ֑נוּ כִּ֛י גַּ֥ם כָּֽל־ מַעֲשֵׂ֖ינוּ פָּעַ֥לְתָּ לָּֽנוּ׃
13O LORD our God, [other] lords besides You have had dominion, but Your name alone do we confess. 13יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֔ינוּ בְּעָל֥וּנוּ אֲדֹנִ֖ים זֽוּלָתֶ֑ךָ לְבַד־ בְּךָ֖ נַזְכִּ֥יר שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
14The dead will not live; the departed spirits will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them; You have wiped out all memory of them. 14מֵתִים֙ בַּל־ יִחְי֔וּ רְפָאִ֖ים בַּל־ יָקֻ֑מוּ לָכֵ֤ן פָּקַ֙דְתָּ֙ וַתַּשְׁמִידֵ֔ם וַתְּאַבֵּ֥ד כָּל־ זֵ֖כֶר לָֽמוֹ׃
15You have enlarged the nation, O LORD; You have increased the nation. You are glorified. You have extended the borders of the land. 15יָסַ֤פְתָּ לַגּוֹי֙ יְהוָ֔ה יָסַ֥פְתָּ לַגּ֖וֹי נִכְבָּ֑דְתָּ רִחַ֖קְתָּ כָּל־ קַצְוֵי־ אָֽרֶץ׃
16O LORD, they sought You in their distress; when You disciplined them, they poured out a quiet prayer. 16יְהוָ֖ה בַּצַּ֣ר פְּקָד֑וּךָ צָק֣וּן לַ֔חַשׁ מוּסָרְךָ֖ לָֽמוֹ׃
17As a woman with child [and] about to give birth writhes and cries out in pain, that is how we were in Your presence, O LORD. 17כְּמ֤וֹ הָרָה֙ תַּקְרִ֣יב לָלֶ֔דֶת תָּחִ֥יל תִּזְעַ֖ק בַּחֲבָלֶ֑יהָ כֵּ֛ן הָיִ֥ינוּ מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ יְהוָֽה׃
18We were pregnant, we writhed in pain, we gave birth to wind. We have brought no salvation to the earth, nor brought any life into the world. 18הָרִ֣ינוּ חַ֔לְנוּ כְּמ֖וֹ יָלַ֣דְנוּ ר֑וּחַ יְשׁוּעֹת֙ בַּל־ נַ֣עֲשֶׂה אֶ֔רֶץ וּבַֽל־ יִפְּל֖וּ יֹשְׁבֵ֥י תֵבֵֽל׃
19Your dead will live; their bodies will rise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust! For your dew is like the dew of the morning, and the earth will bring forth her dead. 19יִֽחְי֣וּ מֵתֶ֔יךָ נְבֵלָתִ֖י יְקוּמ֑וּן הָקִ֨יצוּ וְרַנְּנ֜וּ שֹׁכְנֵ֣י עָפָ֗ר כִּ֣י טַ֤ל אוֹרֹת֙ טַלֶּ֔ךָ וָאָ֖רֶץ רְפָאִ֥ים תַּפִּֽיל׃ ס
20Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves a little while until the wrath has passed. 20לֵ֤ךְ עַמִּי֙ בֹּ֣א בַחֲדָרֶ֔יךָ וּֽסְגֹ֥ר [דלתיך] (דְּלָתְךָ֖) בַּעֲדֶ֑ךָ חֲבִ֥י כִמְעַט־ רֶ֖גַע עַד־ [יעבור־] (יַעֲבָר־) זָֽעַם׃
21For behold, the LORD is coming out of His dwelling to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth will reveal her bloodshed and no longer conceal her slain. 21כִּֽי־ הִנֵּ֤ה יְהוָה֙ יֹצֵ֣א מִמְּקוֹמ֔וֹ לִפְקֹ֛ד עֲוֺ֥ן יֹֽשֵׁב־ הָאָ֖רֶץ עָלָ֑יו וְגִלְּתָ֤ה הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ אֶת־ דָּמֶ֔יהָ וְלֹֽא־ תְכַסֶּ֥ה ע֖וֹד עַל־ הֲרוּגֶֽיהָ׃ ס
