1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

1 לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

2 שְׁמַע־אֱלֹהִ֣ים קֹולִ֣י בְשִׂיחִ֑י מִפַּ֥חַד אֹ֝ויֵ֗ב תִּצֹּ֥ר חַיָּֽי׃

3 Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,

3 תַּ֭סְתִּירֵנִי מִסֹּ֣וד מְרֵעִ֑ים מֵ֝רִגְשַׁ֗ת פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃

4 That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

4 אֲשֶׁ֤ר שָׁנְנ֣וּ כַחֶ֣רֶב לְשֹׁונָ֑ם דָּרְכ֥וּ חִ֝צָּ֗ם דָּבָ֥ר מָֽר׃

5 They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?

5 לִירֹ֣ות בַּמִּסְתָּרִ֣ים תָּ֑ם פִּתְאֹ֥ם יֹ֝רֻ֗הוּ וְלֹ֣א יִירָֽאוּ׃

6 They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, `say they', a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.

6 יְחַזְּקוּ־לָ֨מֹו׀ דָּ֘בָ֤ר רָ֗ע יְֽ֭סַפְּרוּ לִטְמֹ֣ון מֹוקְשִׁ֑ים אָ֝מְר֗וּ מִ֣י יִרְאֶה־לָּֽמֹו׃

7 But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.

7 יַֽחְפְּֽשׂוּ־עֹולֹ֗ת תַּ֭מְנוּ חֵ֣פֶשׂ מְחֻפָּ֑שׂ וְקֶ֥רֶב אִ֝֗ישׁ וְלֵ֣ב עָמֹֽק׃

8 So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.

8 וַיֹּרֵ֗ם אֱלֹ֫הִ֥ים חֵ֥ץ פִּתְאֹ֑ום הָ֝י֗וּ מַכֹּותָֽם׃

9 And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.

9 וַיַּכְשִׁיל֣וּהוּ עָלֵ֣ימֹו לְשֹׁונָ֑ם יִ֝תְנֹדֲד֗וּ כָּל־רֹ֥אֵה בָֽם׃

10 The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory. Psalm 65 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A song of David.

10 וַיִּֽירְא֗וּ כָּל־אָ֫דָ֥ם וַ֭יַּגִּידוּ פֹּ֥עַל אֱלֹהִ֗ים וּֽמַעֲשֵׂ֥הוּ הִשְׂכִּֽילוּ׃
