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.
