| לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אֶֽל־הַנְּחִיל֗וֹת מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ | 1 | For the director, on the flutes, a psalm by David. |
| אֲמָרַ֖י הַאֲזִ֥ינָה׀ יְהוָ֗ה בִּ֣ינָה הֲגִֽיגִי׃ | 2 | Listen to my words YHWH; understand my murmuring. |
| הַקְשִׁ֤יבָה׀ לְק֬וֹל שַׁוְעִ֗י מַלְכִּ֥י וֵאלֹהָ֑י כִּֽי־אֵ֜לֶ֗יךָ אֶתְפַּלָּֽל׃ | 3 | Pay attention to the sound of my cry for help, my king and my God, for I am praying to you. |
| יְֽהוָ֗ה בֹּ֭קֶר תִּשְׁמַ֣ע קוֹלִ֑י בֹּ֥קֶר אֶֽעֱרָךְ־לְ֜ךָ֗ וַאֲצַפֶּֽה׃ | 4 | YHWH, in the morning you hear my voice. In the morning I arrange my case for you and wait. |
| כִּ֤י׀ לֹ֤א אֵֽל־חָפֵ֨ץ רֶ֥שַׁע׀ אָ֑תָּה לֹ֖א יְגֻרְךָ֣ רָֽע׃ | 5 | For you are not a god pleased with wickedness; evil will not sojourn with you. |
| לֹֽא־יִתְיַצְּב֣וּ הֽ֭וֹלְלִים לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינֶ֑יךָ שָׂ֜נֵ֗אתָ כָּל־פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ | 6 | Boasters will not stand before your eyes; you hate all workers of evil. |
| תְּאַבֵּד֘ דֹּבְרֵ֪י כָ֫זָ֥ב אִישׁ־דָּמִ֥ים וּמִרְמָ֗ה יְתָ֨עֵ֥ב׀ יְהוָֽה׃ | 7 | You will destroy speakers of falsehood; YHWH abhors a person of bloodshed and treachery. |
| וַאֲנִ֗י בְּרֹ֣ב חַ֭סְדְּךָ אָב֣וֹא בֵיתֶ֑ךָ אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֥ה אֶל־הֵֽיכַל־קָ֜דְשְׁךָ֗ בְּיִרְאָתֶֽךָ׃ | 8 | But I, in the greatness of your loyalty, will go to your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in fear of you. |
| יְהוָ֤ה׀ נְחֵ֬נִי בְצִדְקָתֶ֗ךָ לְמַ֥עַן שׁוֹרְרָ֑י הַושַׁ֖ר לְפָנַ֣י דַּרְכֶּֽךָ׃ | 9 | YHWH, lead me in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way straight before me. |
| כִּ֤י אֵ֪ין בְּפִ֡יהוּ נְכוֹנָה֮ קִרְבָּ֪ם הַ֫וּ֥וֹת קֶֽבֶר־פָּת֥וּחַ גְּרוֹנָ֑ם לְ֝שׁוֹנָ֗ם יַחֲלִֽיקוּן׃ | 10 | For there is nothing true in his mouth. Their inner parts are disaster. Their throat is an open tomb. They make their tongues deceitful. |
| הַֽאֲשִׁימֵ֨ם׀ אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים יִפְּלוּ֮ מִֽמֹּעֲצ֪וֹתֵ֫יהֶ֥ם בְּרֹ֣ב פִּ֭שְׁעֵיהֶם הַדִּיחֵ֑מוֹ כִּי־מָ֥רוּ בָֽךְ׃ | 11 | Make them bear their guilt, God. Let them fall on account of their designs. Drive them out because of the greatness of their crimes, for they have rebelled against you. |
| וְיִשְׂמְח֨וּ כָל־ח֪וֹסֵי בָ֡ךְ לְעוֹלָ֣ם יְ֭רַנֵּנוּ וְתָסֵ֣ךְ עָלֵ֑ימוֹ וְֽיַעְלְצ֥וּ בְ֝ךָ֗ אֹהֲבֵ֥י שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ | 12 | And let all those who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them shout forever, and may you shelter them, and let those who love you exult in you. |
| כִּֽי־אַתָּה֮ תְּבָרֵ֪ךְ צַ֫דִּ֥יק יְהוָ֑ה כַּ֝צִּנָּ֗ה רָצ֥וֹן תַּעְטְרֶֽנּוּ׃ | 13 | For you bless the righteous one. YHWH, like a large shield, you surround him with favor. |
