1 O lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

1 מִזְמֹ֖ור לְדָוִ֣ד לְהַזְכִּֽיר׃

2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

2 יְֽהוָ֗ה אַל־בְּקֶצְפְּךָ֥ תֹוכִיחֵ֑נִי וּֽבַחֲמָתְךָ֥ תְיַסְּרֵֽנִי׃

3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

3 כִּֽי־חִ֭צֶּיךָ נִ֣חֲתוּ בִ֑י וַתִּנְחַ֖ת עָלַ֣י יָדֶֽךָ׃

4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

4 אֵין־מְתֹ֣ם בִּ֭בְשָׂרִי מִפְּנֵ֣י זַעְמֶ֑ךָ אֵין־שָׁלֹ֥ום בַּ֝עֲצָמַ֗י מִפְּנֵ֥י חַטָּאתִֽי׃

5 My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

5 כִּ֣י עֲ֭וֹנֹתַי עָבְר֣וּ רֹאשִׁ֑י כְּמַשָּׂ֥א כָ֝בֵ֗ד יִכְבְּד֥וּ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃

6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

6 הִבְאִ֣ישׁוּ נָ֭מַקּוּ חַבּוּרֹתָ֑י מִ֝פְּנֵ֗י אִוַּלְתִּֽי׃

7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

7 נַעֲוֵ֣יתִי שַׁחֹ֣תִי עַד־מְאֹ֑ד כָּל־הַ֝יֹּ֗ום קֹדֵ֥ר הִלָּֽכְתִּי׃

8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

8 כִּֽי־כְ֭סָלַי מָלְא֣וּ נִקְלֶ֑ה וְאֵ֥ין מְ֝תֹ֗ם בִּבְשָׂרִֽי׃

9 Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

9 נְפוּגֹ֣ותִי וְנִדְכֵּ֣יתִי עַד־מְאֹ֑ד אַ֗גְתִּי מִֽנַּהֲמַ֥ת לִבִּֽי׃

10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

10 אֲ‍ֽדֹנָי נֶגְדְּךָ֥ כָל־תַּאֲוָתִ֑י וְ֝אַנְחָתִ֗י מִמְּךָ֥ לֹא־נִסְתָּֽרָה׃

11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

11 לִבִּ֣י סְ֭חַרְחַר עֲזָבַ֣נִי כֹחִ֑י וְֽאֹור־עֵינַ֥י גַּם־הֵ֝֗ם אֵ֣ין אִתִּֽי׃

12 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

12 אֹֽהֲבַ֨י׀ וְרֵעַ֗י מִנֶּ֣גֶד נִגְעִ֣י יַעֲמֹ֑דוּ וּ֝קְרֹובַ֗י מֵרָחֹ֥ק עָמָֽדוּ׃

13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

13 וַיְנַקְשׁ֤וּ׀ מְבַקְשֵׁ֬י נַפְשִׁ֗י וְדֹרְשֵׁ֣י רָ֭עָתִי דִּבְּר֣וּ הַוֹּ֑ות וּ֝מִרְמֹ֗ות כָּל־הַיֹּ֥ום יֶהְגּֽוּ׃

14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

14 וַאֲנִ֣י כְ֭חֵרֵשׁ לֹ֣א אֶשְׁמָ֑ע וּ֝כְאִלֵּ֗ם לֹ֣א יִפְתַּח־פִּֽיו׃

15 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

15 וָאֱהִ֗י כְּ֭אִישׁ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־שֹׁמֵ֑עַ וְאֵ֥ין בְּ֝פִ֗יו תֹּוכָחֹֽות׃

16 For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

16 כִּֽי־לְךָ֣ יְהוָ֣ה הֹוחָ֑לְתִּי אַתָּ֥ה תַ֝עֲנֶ֗ה אֲדֹנָ֥י אֱלֹהָֽי׃

17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

17 כִּֽי־אָ֭מַרְתִּי פֶּן־יִשְׂמְחוּ־לִ֑י בְּמֹ֥וט רַ֝גְלִ֗י עָלַ֥י הִגְדִּֽילוּ׃

18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

18 כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי לְצֶ֣לַע נָכֹ֑ון וּמַכְאֹובִ֖י נֶגְדִּ֣י תָמִֽיד׃

19 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

19 כִּֽי־עֲוֹנִ֥י אַגִּ֑יד אֶ֝דְאַ֗ג מֵֽחַטָּאתִֽי׃

20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.

20 וְֽ֭אֹיְבַי חַיִּ֣ים עָצֵ֑מוּ וְרַבּ֖וּ שֹׂנְאַ֣י שָֽׁקֶר׃

21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

21 וּמְשַׁלְּמֵ֣י רָ֭עָה תַּ֣חַת טֹובָ֑ה יִ֝שְׂטְנ֗וּנִי תַּ֣חַת רְדֹופִי־ רָֽדְפִי־טֹֽוב׃

22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

22 אַל־תַּֽעַזְבֵ֥נִי יְהוָ֑ה אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י אַל־תִּרְחַ֥ק מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
