1And David spoke the words of this song to the LORD in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.1וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר דָּוִד֙ לַֽיהוָ֔ה אֶת־ דִּבְרֵ֖י הַשִּׁירָ֣ה הַזֹּ֑את בְּיוֹם֩ הִצִּ֨יל יְהוָ֥ה אֹת֛וֹ מִכַּ֥ף כָּל־ אֹיְבָ֖יו וּמִכַּ֥ף שָׁאֽוּל׃
2He said, "The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;2וַיֹּאמַ֑ר יְהוָ֛ה סַֽלְעִ֥י וּמְצֻדָתִ֖י וּמְפַלְטִי־ לִֽי׃
3My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; My savior, You save me from violence.3אֱלֹהֵ֥י צוּרִ֖י אֶחֱסֶה־ בּ֑וֹ מָגִנִּ֞י וְקֶ֣רֶן יִשְׁעִ֗י מִשְׂגַּבִּי֙ וּמְנוּסִ֔י מֹשִׁעִ֕י מֵחָמָ֖ס תֹּשִׁעֵֽנִי׃
4"I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, And I am saved from my enemies.4מְהֻלָּ֖ל אֶקְרָ֣א יְהוָ֑ה וּמֵאֹיְבַ֖י אִוָּשֵֽׁעַ׃
5"For the waves of death encompassed me; The torrents of destruction overwhelmed me;5כִּ֥י אֲפָפֻ֖נִי מִשְׁבְּרֵי־ מָ֑וֶת נַחֲלֵ֥י בְלִיַּ֖עַל יְבַעֲתֻֽנִי׃
6The cords of Sheol surrounded me; The snares of death confronted me.6חֶבְלֵ֥י שְׁא֖וֹל סַבֻּ֑נִי קִדְּמֻ֖נִי מֹֽקְשֵׁי־ מָֽוֶת׃
7"In my distress I called upon the LORD, Yes, I cried to my God; And from His temple He heard my voice, And my cry for help came into His ears.7בַּצַּר־ לִי֙ אֶקְרָ֣א יְהוָ֔ה וְאֶל־ אֱלֹהַ֖י אֶקְרָ֑א וַיִּשְׁמַ֤ע מֵהֵֽיכָלוֹ֙ קוֹלִ֔י וְשַׁוְעָתִ֖י בְּאָזְנָֽיו׃
8"Then the earth shook and quaked, The foundations of heaven were trembling And were shaken, because He was angry.8[ותגעש] (וַיִּתְגָּעַ֤שׁ‪‬‪‬) וַתִּרְעַשׁ֙ הָאָ֔רֶץ מוֹסְד֥וֹת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם יִרְגָּ֑זוּ וַיִּֽתְגָּעֲשׁ֖וּ כִּֽי־ חָ֥רָה לֽוֹ׃
9"Smoke went up out of His nostrils, Fire from His mouth devoured; Coals were kindled by it.9עָלָ֤ה עָשָׁן֙ בְּאַפּ֔וֹ וְאֵ֥שׁ מִפִּ֖יו תֹּאכֵ֑ל גֶּחָלִ֖ים בָּעֲר֥וּ מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃
10"He bowed the heavens also, and came down With thick darkness under His feet.10וַיֵּ֥ט שָׁמַ֖יִם וַיֵּרַ֑ד וַעֲרָפֶ֖ל תַּ֥חַת רַגְלָֽיו׃
11"And He rode on a cherub and flew; And He appeared on the wings of the wind.11וַיִּרְכַּ֥ב עַל־ כְּר֖וּב וַיָּעֹ֑ף וַיֵּרָ֖א עַל־ כַּנְפֵי־ רֽוּחַ׃
12"And He made darkness canopies around Him, A mass of waters, thick clouds of the sky.12וַיָּ֥שֶׁת חֹ֛שֶׁךְ סְבִיבֹתָ֖יו סֻכּ֑וֹת חַֽשְׁרַת־ מַ֖יִם עָבֵ֥י שְׁחָקִֽים׃
13"From the brightness before Him Coals of fire were kindled.13מִנֹּ֖גַהּ נֶגְדּ֑וֹ בָּעֲר֖וּ גַּחֲלֵי־ אֵֽשׁ׃
14"The LORD thundered from heaven, And the Most High uttered His voice.14יַרְעֵ֥ם מִן־ שָׁמַ֖יִם יְהוָ֑ה וְעֶלְי֖וֹן יִתֵּ֥ן קוֹלֽוֹ׃
15"And He sent out arrows, and scattered them, Lightning, and routed them.15וַיִּשְׁלַ֥ח חִצִּ֖ים וַיְפִיצֵ֑ם בָּרָ֖ק [ויהמם] (וַיָּהֹֽם׃)
16"Then the channels of the sea appeared, The foundations of the world were laid bare By the rebuke of the LORD, At the blast of the breath of His nostrils.16וַיֵּֽרָאוּ֙ אֲפִ֣קֵי יָ֔ם יִגָּל֖וּ מֹסְד֣וֹת תֵּבֵ֑ל בְּגַעֲרַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה מִנִּשְׁמַ֖ת ר֥וּחַ אַפּֽוֹ׃
17"He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters.17יִשְׁלַ֥ח מִמָּר֖וֹם יִקָּחֵ֑נִי יַֽמְשֵׁ֖נִי מִמַּ֥יִם רַבִּֽים׃
18"He delivered me from my strong enemy, From those who hated me, for they were too strong for me.18יַצִּילֵ֕נִי מֵאֹיְבִ֖י עָ֑ז מִשֹּׂ֣נְאַ֔י כִּ֥י אָמְצ֖וּ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
19"They confronted me in the day of my calamity, But the LORD was my support.19יְקַדְּמֻ֖נִי בְּי֣וֹם אֵידִ֑י וַיְהִ֧י יְהוָ֛ה מִשְׁעָ֖ן לִֽי׃
20"He also brought me forth into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me.20וַיֹּצֵ֥א לַמֶּרְחָ֖ב אֹתִ֑י יְחַלְּצֵ֖נִי כִּי־ חָ֥פֵֽץ בִּֽי׃
21"The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me.21יִגְמְלֵ֥נִי יְהוָ֖ה כְּצִדְקָתִ֑י כְּבֹ֥ר יָדַ֖י יָשִׁ֥יב לִֽי׃
22"For I have kept the ways of the LORD, And have not acted wickedly against my God.22כִּ֥י שָׁמַ֖רְתִּי דַּרְכֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְלֹ֥א רָשַׁ֖עְתִּי מֵאֱלֹהָֽי׃
23"For all His ordinances were before me, And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.23כִּ֥י כָל־ [משפטו] (מִשְׁפָּטָ֖יו) לְנֶגְדִּ֑י וְחֻקֹּתָ֖יו לֹא־ אָס֥וּר מִמֶּֽנָּה׃
24"I was also blameless toward Him, And I kept myself from my iniquity.24וָאֶהְיֶ֥ה תָמִ֖ים ל֑וֹ וָאֶשְׁתַּמְּרָ֖ה מֵעֲוֺנִֽי׃
25"Therefore the LORD has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness before His eyes.25וַיָּ֧שֶׁב יְהוָ֛ה לִ֖י כְּצִדְקָתִ֑י כְּבֹרִ֖י לְנֶ֥גֶד עֵינָֽיו׃
26"With the kind You show Yourself kind, With the blameless You show Yourself blameless;26עִם־ חָסִ֖יד תִּתְחַסָּ֑ד עִם־ גִּבּ֥וֹר תָּמִ֖ים תִּתַּמָּֽם׃
27With the pure You show Yourself pure, And with the perverted You show Yourself astute.27עִם־ נָבָ֖ר תִּתָּבָ֑ר וְעִם־ עִקֵּ֖שׁ תִּתַּפָּֽל׃
28"And You save an afflicted people; But Your eyes are on the haughty whom You abase.28וְאֶת־ עַ֥ם עָנִ֖י תּוֹשִׁ֑יעַ וְעֵינֶ֖יךָ עַל־ רָמִ֥ים תַּשְׁפִּֽיל׃
29"For You are my lamp, O LORD; And the LORD illumines my darkness.29כִּֽי־ אַתָּ֥ה נֵירִ֖י יְהוָ֑ה וַיהוָ֖ה יַגִּ֥יהַּ חָשְׁכִּֽי׃
30"For by You I can run upon a troop; By my God I can leap over a wall.30כִּ֥י בְכָ֖ה אָר֣וּץ גְּד֑וּד בֵּאלֹהַ֖י אֲדַלֶּג־ שֽׁוּר׃
31"As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the LORD is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.31הָאֵ֖ל תָּמִ֣ים דַּרְכּ֑וֹ אִמְרַ֤ת יְהוָה֙ צְרוּפָ֔ה מָגֵ֣ן ה֔וּא לְכֹ֖ל הַחֹסִ֥ים בּֽוֹ׃
32"For who is God, besides the LORD? And who is a rock, besides our God?32כִּ֥י מִי־ אֵ֖ל מִבַּלְעֲדֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וּמִ֥י צ֖וּר מִֽבַּלְעֲדֵ֥י אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
33"God is my strong fortress; And He sets the blameless in His way.33הָאֵ֥ל מָעוּזִּ֖י חָ֑יִל וַיַּתֵּ֥ר תָּמִ֖ים [דרכו] (דַּרְכִּֽי׃)
34"He makes my feet like hinds' feet, And sets me on my high places.34מְשַׁוֶּ֥ה [רגליו] (רַגְלַ֖י) כָּאַיָּל֑וֹת וְעַ֥ל בָּמוֹתַ֖י יַעֲמִדֵֽנִי׃
35"He trains my hands for battle, So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.35מְלַמֵּ֥ד יָדַ֖י לַמִּלְחָמָ֑ה וְנִחַ֥ת קֶֽשֶׁת־ נְחוּשָׁ֖ה זְרֹעֹתָֽי׃
36"You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, And Your help makes me great.36וַתִּתֶּן־ לִ֖י מָגֵ֣ן יִשְׁעֶ֑ךָ וַעֲנֹתְךָ֖ תַּרְבֵּֽנִי׃
37"You enlarge my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped.37תַּרְחִ֥יב צַעֲדִ֖י תַּחְתֵּ֑נִי וְלֹ֥א מָעֲד֖וּ קַרְסֻלָּֽי׃
38"I pursued my enemies and destroyed them, And I did not turn back until they were consumed.38אֶרְדְּפָ֥ה אֹיְבַ֖י וָאַשְׁמִידֵ֑ם וְלֹ֥א אָשׁ֖וּב עַד־ כַּלּוֹתָֽם׃
39"And I have devoured them and shattered them, so that they did not rise; And they fell under my feet.39וָאֲכַלֵּ֥ם וָאֶמְחָצֵ֖ם וְלֹ֣א יְקוּמ֑וּן וַֽיִּפְּל֖וּ תַּ֥חַת רַגְלָֽי׃
40"For You have girded me with strength for battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.40וַתַּזְרֵ֥נִי חַ֖יִל לַמִּלְחָמָ֑ה תַּכְרִ֥יעַ קָמַ֖י תַּחְתֵּֽנִי׃
41"You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, And I destroyed those who hated me.41וְאֹ֣יְבַ֔י תַּ֥תָּה לִּ֖י עֹ֑רֶף מְשַׂנְאַ֖י וָאַצְמִיתֵֽם׃
42"They looked, but there was none to save; Even to the LORD, but He did not answer them.42יִשְׁע֖וּ וְאֵ֣ין מֹשִׁ֑יעַ אֶל־ יְהוָ֖ה וְלֹ֥א עָנָֽם׃
43"Then I pulverized them as the dust of the earth; I crushed and stamped them as the mire of the streets.43וְאֶשְׁחָקֵ֖ם כַּעֲפַר־ אָ֑רֶץ כְּטִיט־ חוּצ֥וֹת אֲדִקֵּ֖ם אֶרְקָעֵֽם׃
44"You have also delivered me from the contentions of my people; You have kept me as head of the nations; A people whom I have not known serve me.44וַֽתְּפַלְּטֵ֔נִי מֵרִיבֵ֖י עַמִּ֑י תִּשְׁמְרֵ֙נִי֙ לְרֹ֣אשׁ גּוֹיִ֔ם עַ֥ם לֹא־ יָדַ֖עְתִּי יַעַבְדֻֽנִי׃
45"Foreigners pretend obedience to me; As soon as they hear, they obey me.45בְּנֵ֥י נֵכָ֖ר יִתְכַּֽחֲשׁוּ־ לִ֑י לִשְׁמ֥וֹעַ אֹ֖זֶן יִשָּׁ֥מְעוּ לִֽי׃
46"Foreigners lose heart, And come trembling out of their fortresses.46בְּנֵ֥י נֵכָ֖ר יִבֹּ֑לוּ וְיַחְגְּר֖וּ מִמִּסְגְּרוֹתָֽם׃
47"The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,47חַי־ יְהוָ֖ה וּבָר֣וּךְ צוּרִ֑י וְיָרֻ֕ם אֱלֹהֵ֖י צ֥וּר יִשְׁעִֽי׃
48The God who executes vengeance for me, And brings down peoples under me,48הָאֵ֕ל הַנֹּתֵ֥ן נְקָמֹ֖ת לִ֑י וּמוֹרִ֥יד עַמִּ֖ים תַּחְתֵּֽנִי׃
49Who also brings me out from my enemies; You even lift me above those who rise up against me; You rescue me from the violent man.49וּמוֹצִיאִ֖י מֵאֹֽיְבָ֑י וּמִקָּמַי֙ תְּר֣וֹמְמֵ֔נִי מֵאִ֥ישׁ חֲמָסִ֖ים תַּצִּילֵֽנִי׃
50"Therefore I will give thanks to You, O LORD, among the nations, And I will sing praises to Your name.50עַל־ כֵּ֛ן אוֹדְךָ֥ יְהוָ֖ה בַּגּוֹיִ֑ם וּלְשִׁמְךָ֖ אֲזַמֵּֽר׃
51"He is a tower of deliverance to His king, And shows lovingkindness to His anointed, To David and his descendants forever."51[מגדיל] (מִגְדּ֖וֹל) יְשׁוּע֣וֹת מַלְכּ֑וֹ וְעֹֽשֶׂה־ חֶ֧סֶד לִמְשִׁיח֛וֹ לְדָוִ֥ד וּלְזַרְע֖וֹ עַד־ עוֹלָֽם׃ פ
