Holman Christian Standard BibleHebrew Study Bible
1For the choir director: "Do Not Destroy." A Davidic Miktam. When he fled before Saul into the cave. Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me, for I take refuge in You. I will seek refuge in the shadow of Your wings until danger passes. 1לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ אַל־ תַּ֭שְׁחֵת לְדָוִ֣ד מִכְתָּ֑ם בְּבָרְח֥וֹ מִפְּנֵי־ שָׁ֝א֗וּל בַּמְּעָרָֽה׃ חָנֵּ֤נִי אֱלֹהִ֨ים ׀ חָנֵּ֗נִי כִּ֥י בְךָ֮ חָסָ֪יָה נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י וּבְצֵֽל־ כְּנָפֶ֥יךָ אֶחְסֶ֑ה עַ֝֗ד יַעֲבֹ֥ר הַוּֽוֹת׃
2I call to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me. 2אֶ֭קְרָא לֵֽאלֹהִ֣ים עֶלְי֑וֹן לָ֝אֵ֗ל גֹּמֵ֥ר עָלָֽי׃
3He reaches down from heaven and saves me, challenging the one who tramples me. Selah God sends His faithful love and truth. 3יִשְׁלַ֤ח מִשָּׁמַ֨יִם ׀ וְֽיוֹשִׁיעֵ֗נִי חֵרֵ֣ף שֹׁאֲפִ֣י סֶ֑לָה יִשְׁלַ֥ח אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים חַסְדּ֥וֹ וַאֲמִתּֽוֹ׃
4I am surrounded by lions; I lie down with those who devour men. Their teeth are spears and arrows; their tongues are sharp swords. 4נַפְשִׁ֤י ׀ בְּת֥וֹךְ לְבָאִם֮ אֶשְׁכְּבָ֪ה לֹ֫הֲטִ֥ים בְּֽנֵי־ אָדָ֗ם שִׁ֭נֵּיהֶם חֲנִ֣ית וְחִצִּ֑ים וּ֝לְשׁוֹנָ֗ם חֶ֣רֶב חַדָּֽה׃
5God, be exalted above the heavens; let Your glory be over the whole earth. 5ר֣וּמָה עַל־ הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כָּל־ הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃
6They prepared a net for my steps; I was despondent. They dug a pit ahead of me, but they fell into it! Selah 6רֶ֤שֶׁת ׀ הֵכִ֣ינוּ לִפְעָמַי֮ כָּפַ֪ף נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י כָּר֣וּ לְפָנַ֣י שִׁיחָ֑ה נָפְל֖וּ בְתוֹכָ֣הּ סֶֽלָה׃
7My heart is confident, God, my heart is confident. I will sing; I will sing praises. 7נָ֘כ֤וֹן לִבִּ֣י אֱ֭לֹהִים נָכ֣וֹן לִבִּ֑י אָ֝שִׁ֗ירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃
8Wake up, my soul! Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn. 8ע֤וּרָה כְבוֹדִ֗י ע֭וּרָֽה הַנֵּ֥בֶל וְכִנּ֗וֹר אָעִ֥ירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃
9I will praise You, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to You among the nations. 9אוֹדְךָ֖ בָעַמִּ֥ים ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י אֲ֝זַמֶּרְךָ֗ בַּל־ אֻמִּֽים׃
10For Your faithful love is as high as the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches the clouds. 10כִּֽי־ גָדֹ֣ל עַד־ שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־ שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃
11God, be exalted above the heavens; let Your glory be over the whole earth. 11ר֣וּמָה עַל־ שָׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כָּל־ הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃
