לַמְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִד לְהַזְכִּיר׃
For the leader. Of David. Lehazkir.
אֱלֹהִים לְהַצִּילֵנִי יְהוָה לְעֶזְרָתִי חוּשָׁה׃
Hasten, O God, to save me; O LORD, to aid me!
יֵבֹשׁוּ וְיַחְפְּרוּ מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשִׁי יִסֹּגוּ אָחוֹר וְיִכָּלְמוּ חֲפֵצֵי רָעָתִי׃
Let those who seek my life be frustrated and disgraced; let those who wish me harm, fall back in shame.
יָשׁוּבוּ עַל־עֵקֶב בָּשְׁתָּם הָאֹמְרִים הֶאָח הֶאָח׃
Let those who say, “Aha! Aha!” turn back because of their frustration.
יָשִׂישׂוּ וְיִשְׂמְחוּ בְּךָ כָּל־מְבַקְשֶׁיךָ וְיֹאמְרוּ תָמִיד יִגְדַּל אֱלֹהִים אֹהֲבֵי יְשׁוּעָתֶךָ׃
But let all who seek You be glad and rejoice in You; let those who are eager for Your deliverance always say, “Extolled be God!”
וַאֲנִי עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן אֱלֹהִים חוּשָׁה־לִּי עֶזְרִי וּמְפַלְטִי אַתָּה יְהוָה אַל־תְּאַחַר׃
But I am poor and needy; O God, hasten to me! You are my help and my rescuer; O LORD, do not delay.

למנצח על־שושנים לדוד
הושיעני אלהים כי באו מים עד־נפש
טבעתי ביון מצולה ואין מעמד באתי במעמקי־מים ושבלת שטפתני
יגעתי בקראי נחר גרוני כלו עיני מיחל לאלהי
רבו משערות ראשי שנאי חנם עצמו מצמיתי איבי שקר אשר לא־גזלתי אז אשיב
א‍להים אתה ידעת לאולתי ואשמותי ממך לא־נכחדו
אל־יבשו בי קויך אדני יהוה צבאות אל־יכלמו בי מבקשיך אלהי ישראל
כי־עליך נשאתי חרפה כסתה כלמה פני
מוזר הייתי לאחי ונכרי לבני אמי
כי־קנאת ביתך אכלתני וחרפות חורפיך נפלו עלי
ואבכה בצום נפשי ותהי לחרפות לי
ואתנה לבושי שק ואהי להם למשל
ישיחו בי ישבי שער ונגינות שותי שכר
ואני תפלתי־לך יהוה עת רצון אלהים ברב־חסדך ענני באמת ישעך
הצילני מטיט ואל־אטבעה אנצלה משנאי וממעמקי־מים
אל־תשטפני שבלת מים ואל־תבלעני מצולה ואל־תאטר־עלי באר פיה
ענני יהוה כי־טוב חסדך כרב רחמיך פנה אלי
ואל־תסתר פניך מעבדך כי־צר־לי מהר ענני
קרבה אל־נפשי גאלה למען איבי פדני
אתה ידעת חרפתי ובשתי וכלמתי נגדך כל־צוררי
חרפה שברה לבי ואנושה ואקוה לנוד ואין ולמנחמים ולא מצאתי
ויתנו בברותי ראש ולצמאי ישקוני חמץ
יהי־שלחנם לפניהם לפח ולשלומים למוקש
תחשכנה עיניהם מראות ומתניהם תמיד המעד
שפך־עליהם זעמך וחרון אפך ישיגם
תהי־טירתם נשמה באהליהם אל־יהי ישב
כי־אתה אשר־הכית רדפו ואל־מכאוב חלליך יספרו
תנה־עון על־עונם ואל־יבאו בצדקתך
ימחו מספר חיים ועם צדיקים אל־יכתבו
ואני עני וכואב ישועתך אלהים תשגבני
אהללה שם־אלהים בשיר ואגדלנו בתודה
ותיטב ליהוה משור פר מקרן מפריס
ראו ענוים ישמחו דרשי אלהים ויחי לבבכם
כי־שמע אל־אביונים יהוה ואת־אסיריו לא בזה
יהללוהו שמים וארץ ימים וכל־רמש בם
כי אלהים יושיע ציון ויבנה ערי יהודה וישבו שם וירשוה
וזרע עבדיו ינחלוה ואהבי שמו ישכנו־בה

March 25, 2018 Tehilim Perek (Psalms) 68
For the leader. Of David. A psalm. A song.
God will arise, His enemies shall be scattered, His foes shall flee before Him.
Disperse them as smoke is dispersed; as wax melts at fire, so the wicked shall perish before God.
But the righteous shall rejoice; they shall exult in the presence of God; they shall be exceedingly joyful.
Sing to God, chant hymns to His name; extol Him who rides the clouds; the LORD is His name. Exult in His presence—
the father of orphans, the champion of widows, God, in His holy habitation.
God restores the lonely to their homes, sets free the imprisoned, safe and sound, while the rebellious must live in a parched land.
O God, when You went at the head of Your army, when You marched through the desert, selah
the earth trembled, the sky rained because of God, yon Sinai, because of God, the God of Israel.
You released a bountiful rain, O God; when Your own land languished, You sustained it.
Your tribe dwells there; O God, in Your goodness You provide for the needy.
The Lord gives a command; the women who bring the news are a great host:
“The kings and their armies are in headlong flight; housewives are sharing in the spoils;
even for those of you who lie among the sheepfolds there are wings of a dove sheathed in silver, its pinions in fine gold.”
When Shaddai scattered the kings, it seemed like a snowstorm in Zalmon.
O majestic mountain, Mount Bashan; O jagged mountain, Mount Bashan;
why so hostile, O jagged mountains, toward the mountain God desired as His dwelling? The LORD shall abide there forever.
God’s chariots are myriads upon myriads, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them as in Sinai in holiness.
You went up to the heights, having taken captives, having received tribute of men, even of those who rebel against the LORD God’s abiding there.
Blessed is the Lord. Day by day He supports us, God, our deliverance.Selah.
God is for us a God of deliverance; GOD the Lord provides an escape from death.
God will smash the heads of His enemies, the hairy crown of him who walks about in his guilt.
The Lord said, “I will retrieve from Bashan, I will retrieve from the depths of the sea;
that your feet may wade through blood; that the tongue of your dogs may have its portion of your enemies.”
Men see Your processions, O God, the processions of my God, my king, into the sanctuary.
First come singers, then musicians, amidst maidens playing timbrels.
In assemblies bless God, the LORD, O you who are from the fountain of Israel.
There is little Benjamin who rules them, the princes of Judah who command them, the princes of Zebulun and Naphtali.
Your God has ordained strength for you, the strength, O God, which You displayed for us
from Your temple above Jerusalem. The kings bring You tribute.
Blast the beast of the marsh, the herd of bulls among the peoples, the calves, till they come cringing with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples who delight in wars!
Tribute-bearers shall come from Egypt; Cush shall hasten its gifts to God.
O kingdoms of the earth, sing to God; chant hymns to the Lord,selah
to Him who rides the ancient highest heavens, who thunders forth with His mighty voice.
Ascribe might to God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose might is in the skies.
You are awesome, O God, in Your holy places; it is the God of Israel who gives might and power to the people. Blessed is God.

אַ֤ךְ מִשְּׂאֵת֨וֹ ׀ יָעֲצ֣וּ לְהַדִּיחַ֮ יִרְצ֪וּ כָ֫זָ֥ב בְּפִ֥יו יְבָרֵ֑כוּ וּ֝בְקִרְבָּ֗ם יְקַלְלוּ־סֶֽלָה׃
They lay plans to topple him from his rank; they delight in falsehood; they bless with their mouths, while inwardly they curse.Selah.
אַ֣ךְ לֵ֭אלֹהִים דּ֣וֹמִּי נַפְשִׁ֑י כִּי־מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ תִּקְוָתִֽי׃
Truly, wait quietly for God, O my soul, for my hope comes from Him.
אַךְ־ה֣וּא צ֭וּרִי וִֽישׁוּעָתִ֑י מִ֝שְׂגַּבִּ֗י לֹ֣א אֶמּֽוֹט׃
He is my rock and deliverance, my haven; I shall not be shaken.
עַל־אֱ֭לֹהִים יִשְׁעִ֣י וּכְבוֹדִ֑י צוּר־עֻזִּ֥י מַ֝חְסִ֗י בֵּֽאלֹהִֽים׃
I rely on God, my deliverance and glory, my rock of strength; in God is my refuge.
בִּטְח֘וּ ב֤וֹ בְכָל־עֵ֨ת ׀ עָ֗ם שִׁפְכֽוּ־לְפָנָ֥יו לְבַבְכֶ֑ם אֱלֹהִ֖ים מַחֲסֶה־לָּ֣נוּ סֶֽלָה׃
Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts before Him; God is our refuge. Selah.
אַ֤ךְ ׀ הֶ֥בֶל בְּנֵֽי־אָדָם֮ כָּזָ֪ב בְּנֵ֫י אִ֥ישׁ בְּמֹאזְנַ֥יִם לַעֲל֑וֹת הֵ֝֗מָּה מֵהֶ֥בֶל יָֽחַד׃
Men are mere breath; mortals, illusion; placed on a scale all together, they weigh even less than a breath.
אַל־תִּבְטְח֣וּ בְעֹשֶׁק֮ וּבְגָזֵ֪ל אַל־תֶּ֫הְבָּ֥לוּ חַ֤יִל ׀ כִּֽי־יָנ֑וּב אַל־תָּשִׁ֥יתוּ לֵֽב׃
Do not trust in violence, or put false hopes in robbery; if force bears fruit pay it no mind.
אַחַ֤ת ׀ דִּבֶּ֬ר אֱלֹהִ֗ים שְׁתַּֽיִם־ז֥וּ שָׁמָ֑עְתִּי כִּ֥י עֹ֝֗ז לֵאלֹהִֽים׃
One thing God has spoken; two things have I heard: that might belongs to God,
וּלְךָֽ־אֲדֹנָ֥י חָ֑סֶד כִּֽי־אַתָּ֨ה תְשַׁלֵּ֖ם לְאִ֣ישׁ כְּֽמַעֲשֵֽׂהוּ׃
and faithfulness is Yours, O Lord, to reward each man according to his deeds.
