| מִזְמ֥וֹר שִׁ֗יר לְי֣וֹם הַשַּׁבָּֽת׃ | 1 | A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. |
| ט֗וֹב לְהֹד֥וֹת לַיהוָ֑ה וּלְזַמֵּ֖ר לְשִׁמְךָ֣ עֶלְיֽוֹן׃ | 2 | It is right to praise YHWH and [it is right] to sing praise to your name, Most High. |
| לְהַגִּ֣יד בַּבֹּ֣קֶר חַסְֽדֶּ֑ךָ וֶ֝אֱמֽוּנָתְךָ֗ בַּלֵּילֽוֹת׃ | 3 | [It is right] to declare your loyalty in the morning and [it is right to declare] your faithfulness at night. |
| עֲֽלֵי־עָ֭שׂוֹר וַעֲלֵי־נָ֑בֶל עֲלֵ֖י הִגָּי֣וֹן בְּכִנּֽוֹר׃ | 4 | [It is right to praise YHWH] with a ten-stringed instrument and with a harp, with a soft melody on a lyre. |
| כִּ֤י שִׂמַּחְתַּ֣נִי יְהוָ֣ה בְּפָעֳלֶ֑ךָ *בְּֽמַעֲשֵׂה* יָדֶ֣יךָ אֲרַנֵּֽן׃ | 5 | For you have made me rejoice, YHWH, by your action; In the work of your hands I rejoice. |
| מַה־גָּדְל֣וּ מַעֲשֶׂ֣יךָ יְהוָ֑ה מְ֝אֹ֗ד עָמְק֥וּ מַחְשְׁבֹתֶֽיךָ׃ | 6 | How great are your works, YHWH! Your plans are so deep. |
| אִֽישׁ־בַּ֭עַר לֹ֣א יֵדָ֑ע וּ֝כְסִ֗יל לֹא־יָבִ֥ין אֶת־זֹֽאת׃ | 7 | Stupid people do not know [this] and fools do not understand this: |
| בִּפְרֹ֤חַ רְשָׁעִ֨ים ׀ כְּמ֥וֹ עֵ֗שֶׂב וַ֭יָּצִיצוּ כָּל־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן לְהִשָּֽׁמְדָ֥ם עֲדֵי־עַֽד׃ | 8 | when wicked people flourish like a green plant and any evildoers prosper, [this is] for them to be destroyed forever, |
| וְאַתָּ֥ה מָר֗וֹם לְעֹלָ֥ם יְהוָֽה׃ | 9 | but you are on high forever, YHWH. |
| כִּ֤י הִנֵּ֪ה אֹיְבֶ֡יךָ ׀ יְֽהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־הִנֵּ֣ה אֹיְבֶ֣יךָ יֹאבֵ֑דוּ יִ֝תְפָּרְד֗וּ כָּל־פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ | 10 | For look, your enemies, YHWH— for look, your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered, |
| וַתָּ֣רֶם כִּרְאֵ֣ים קַרְנִ֑י *בְּלּתִי* *כְּ*שֶׁ֣מֶן רַעֲנָֽן׃ | 11 | and you will lift up my horn like a wild ox, my old age [will be] fresh like oil, |
| וַתַּבֵּ֥ט עֵינִ֗י בְּשׁ֫וּרָ֥י בַּקָּמִ֖ים עָלַ֥י מְרֵעִ֗ים תִּשְׁמַ֥עְנָה אָזְנָֽי׃ | 12 | and my eyes will look upon my enemies; my ears will hear those who rise up against me, wicked people. |
| צַ֭דִּיק כַּתָּמָ֣ר יִפְרָ֑ח כְּאֶ֖רֶז בַּלְּבָנ֣וֹן יִשְׂגֶּֽה׃ | 13 | The righteous will flourish like a palm tree; like a cedar tree in Lebanon he will grow. |
| שְׁ֭תוּלִים בְּבֵ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה בְּחַצְר֖וֹת אֱלֹהֵ֣ינוּ יַפְרִֽיחוּ׃ | 14 | [They will be] transplanted in the house of YHWH; in the courtyards of our God they will flourish. |
| ע֭וֹד יְנוּב֣וּן בְּשֵׂיבָ֑ה דְּשֵׁנִ֖ים וְרַֽעֲנַנִּ֣ים יִהְיֽוּ׃ | 15 | They will still thrive in old age; they will be vigorous and fresh |
| לְ֭הַגִּיד כִּֽי־יָשָׁ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה צ֝וּרִ֗י וְֽלֹא־עַוְלָ֥תָה בּֽוֹ׃ | 16 | in order that people declare that YHWH, my rock, is fair and there is no injustice in him. |
