1Of David, when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, so that [the king] drove him away. I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise will always be on my lips. 1לְדָוִ֗ד בְּשַׁנּוֹת֣וֹ אֶת־ טַ֭עְמוֹ לִפְנֵ֣י אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ וַֽ֝יְגָרֲשֵׁ֗הוּ וַיֵּלַֽךְ׃ אֲבָרֲכָ֣ה אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה בְּכָל־ עֵ֑ת תָּ֝מִ֗יד תְּֽהִלָּת֥וֹ בְּפִֽי׃
2My soul will boast in the LORD; let the oppressed hear and rejoice. 2בַּ֭יהוָה תִּתְהַלֵּ֣ל נַפְשִׁ֑י יִשְׁמְע֖וּ עֲנָוִ֣ים וְיִשְׂמָֽחוּ׃
3Magnify the LORD with me; let us exalt His name together. 3גַּדְּל֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה אִתִּ֑י וּנְרוֹמְמָ֖ה שְׁמ֣וֹ יַחְדָּֽו׃
4I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. 4דָּרַ֣שְׁתִּי אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה וְעָנָ֑נִי וּמִכָּל־ מְ֝גוּרוֹתַ֗י הִצִּילָֽנִי׃
5Those who look to Him are radiant with joy; their faces shall never be ashamed. 5הִבִּ֣יטוּ אֵלָ֣יו וְנָהָ֑רוּ וּ֝פְנֵיהֶ֗ם אַל־ יֶחְפָּֽרוּ׃
6This poor man called out, and the LORD heard him; He saved him from all his troubles. 6זֶ֤ה עָנִ֣י קָ֭רָא וַיהוָ֣ה שָׁמֵ֑עַ וּמִכָּל־ צָ֝רוֹתָ֗יו הוֹשִׁיעֽוֹ׃
7The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and he delivers them. 7חֹנֶ֤ה מַלְאַךְ־ יְהוָ֓ה סָ֘בִ֤יב לִֽירֵאָ֗יו וַֽיְחַלְּצֵֽם׃
8Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! 8טַעֲמ֣וּ וּ֭רְאוּ כִּי־ ט֣וֹב יְהוָ֑ה אַֽשְׁרֵ֥י הַ֝גֶּ֗בֶר יֶחֱסֶה־ בּֽוֹ׃
9Fear the LORD, you His saints, for those who fear Him lack nothing. 9יְר֣אוּ אֶת־ יְהוָ֣ה קְדֹשָׁ֑יו כִּי־ אֵ֥ין מַ֝חְס֗וֹר לִירֵאָֽיו׃
10Young lions go lacking and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. 10כְּ֭פִירִים רָשׁ֣וּ וְרָעֵ֑בוּ וְדֹרְשֵׁ֥י יְ֝הוָ֗ה לֹא־ יַחְסְר֥וּ כָל־ טֽוֹב׃
11Come, children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD. 11לְֽכוּ־ בָ֭נִים שִׁמְעוּ־ לִ֑י יִֽרְאַ֥ת יְ֝הוָ֗ה אֲלַמֶּדְכֶֽם׃
12Who is the man who delights in life, who desires to see [many] good days? 12מִֽי־ הָ֭אִישׁ הֶחָפֵ֣ץ חַיִּ֑ים אֹהֵ֥ב יָ֝מִ֗ים לִרְא֥וֹת טֽוֹב׃
13Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from deceitful speech. 13נְצֹ֣ר לְשׁוֹנְךָ֣ מֵרָ֑ע וּ֝שְׂפָתֶ֗יךָ מִדַּבֵּ֥ר מִרְמָֽה׃
14Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. 14ס֣וּר מֵ֭רָע וַעֲשֵׂה־ ט֑וֹב בַּקֵּ֖שׁ שָׁל֣וֹם וְרָדְפֵֽהוּ׃
15The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their cry. 15עֵינֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה אֶל־ צַדִּיקִ֑ים וְ֝אָזְנָ֗יו אֶל־ שַׁוְעָתָֽם׃
16[But] the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to sever their memory from the earth. 16פְּנֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה בְּעֹ֣שֵׂי רָ֑ע לְהַכְרִ֖ית מֵאֶ֣רֶץ זִכְרָֽם׃
17The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears; He delivers them from all their troubles. 17צָעֲק֣וּ וַיהוָ֣ה שָׁמֵ֑עַ וּמִכָּל־ צָ֝רוֹתָ֗ם הִצִּילָֽם׃
18The LORD is near to the brokenhearted; He saves the contrite in spirit. 18קָר֣וֹב יְ֭הוָה לְנִשְׁבְּרֵי־ לֵ֑ב וְֽאֶת־ דַּכְּאֵי־ ר֥וּחַ יוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃
19Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all. 19רַ֭בּוֹת רָע֣וֹת צַדִּ֑יק וּ֝מִכֻּלָּ֗ם יַצִּילֶ֥נּוּ יְהוָֽה׃
20He protects all his bones; not one of them will be broken. 20שֹׁמֵ֥ר כָּל־ עַצְמוֹתָ֑יו אַחַ֥ת מֵ֝הֵ֗נָּה לֹ֣א נִשְׁבָּֽרָה׃
21Evil {will} slay the wicked, and the haters of the righteous will be condemned. 21תְּמוֹתֵ֣ת רָשָׁ֣ע רָעָ֑ה וְשֹׂנְאֵ֖י צַדִּ֣יק יֶאְשָֽׁמוּ׃
22The LORD redeems His servants, and none who take refuge in Him will be condemned. 22פּוֹדֶ֣ה יְ֭הוָה נֶ֣פֶשׁ עֲבָדָ֑יו וְלֹ֥א יֶ֝אְשְׁמ֗וּ כָּֽל־ הַחֹסִ֥ים בּֽוֹ׃
