1 In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.

1 בְּךָֽ־יְהוָ֥ה חָסִ֑יתִי אַל־אֵבֹ֥ושָׁה לְעֹולָֽם׃

2 In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.

2 בְּצִדְקָתְךָ֗ תַּצִּילֵ֥נִי וּֽתְפַלְּטֵ֑נִי הַטֵּֽה־אֵלַ֥י אָ֝זְנְךָ֗ וְהֹושִׁיעֵֽנִי׃

3 Be to me for a rock -- a habitation, To go in continually, Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark `art' Thou.

3 הֱיֵ֤ה לִ֨י׀ לְצ֥וּר מָעֹ֡ון לָבֹ֗וא תָּמִ֗יד צִוִּ֥יתָ לְהֹושִׁיעֵ֑נִי כִּֽי־סַלְעִ֖י וּמְצוּדָתִ֣י אָֽתָּה׃

4 O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

4 אֱ‍ֽלֹהַ֗י פַּ֭לְּטֵנִי מִיַּ֣ד רָשָׁ֑ע מִכַּ֖ף מְעַוֵּ֣ל וְחֹומֵץ¹׃

5 For Thou `art' my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.

5 כִּֽי־אַתָּ֥ה תִקְוָתִ֑י אֲדֹנָ֥י יְ֝הוִ֗ה מִבְטַחִ֥י מִנְּעוּרָֽי׃

6 By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee `is' my praise continually.

6 עָלֶ֤יךָ׀ נִסְמַ֬כְתִּי מִבֶּ֗טֶן מִמְּעֵ֣י אִ֭מִּי אַתָּ֣ה גֹוזִ֑י בְּךָ֖ תְהִלָּתִ֣י תָמִֽיד׃

7 As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou `art' my strong refuge.

7 כְּ֭מֹופֵת הָיִ֣יתִי לְרַבִּ֑ים וְ֝אַתָּ֗ה מַֽחֲסִי־עֹֽז׃

8 Filled is my mouth `with' Thy praise, All the day `with' Thy beauty.

8 יִמָּ֣לֵא פִ֭י תְּהִלָּתֶ֑ךָ כָּל־הַ֝יֹּ֗ום תִּפְאַרְתֶּֽךָ׃

9 Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.

9 אַֽל־תַּ֭שְׁלִיכֵנִי לְעֵ֣ת זִקְנָ֑ה כִּכְלֹ֥ות כֹּ֝חִ֗י אַֽל־תַּעַזְבֵֽנִי׃

10 For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,

10 כִּֽי־אָמְר֣וּ אֹויְבַ֣י לִ֑י וְשֹׁמְרֵ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י נֹועֲצ֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃

11 Saying, `God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.'

11 לֵ֭אמֹר אֱלֹהִ֣ים עֲזָבֹ֑ו רִֽדְפ֥וּ וְ֝תִפְשׂ֗וּהוּ כִּי־אֵ֥ין מַצִּֽיל׃

12 O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.

12 אֱ֭לֹהִים אַל־תִּרְחַ֣ק מִמֶּ֑נִּי אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י לְעֶזְרָ֥תִי חִישָׁה חֽוּשָׁה׃

13 They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered `with' reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,

13 יֵבֹ֣שׁוּ יִכְלוּ֮ שֹׂטְנֵ֪י נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י יַֽעֲט֣וּ חֶ֭רְפָּה וּכְלִמָּ֑ה מְ֝בַקְשֵׁ֗י רָעָתִֽי׃

14 And I continually do wait with hope, And have added unto all Thy praise.

14 וַ֭אֲנִי תָּמִ֣יד אֲיַחֵ֑ל וְ֝הֹוסַפְתִּ֗י עַל־כָּל־תְּהִלָּתֶֽךָ׃

15 My mouth recounteth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy salvation, For I have not known the numbers.

15 פִּ֤י׀ יְסַפֵּ֬ר צִדְקָתֶ֗ךָ כָּל־הַיֹּ֥ום תְּשׁוּעָתֶ֑ךָ כִּ֤י לֹ֖א יָדַ֣עְתִּי סְפֹרֹֽות׃

16 I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness -- Thine only.

16 אָבֹ֗וא בִּ֭גְבֻרֹות אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֑ה אַזְכִּ֖יר צִדְקָתְךָ֣ לְבַדֶּֽךָ׃

17 God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I declare Thy wonders.

17 אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים לִמַּדְתַּ֥נִי מִנְּעוּרָ֑י וְעַד־הֵ֝֗נָּה אַגִּ֥יד נִפְלְאֹותֶֽיךָ׃

18 And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.

18 וְגַ֤ם עַד־זִקְנָ֨ה׀ וְשֵׂיבָה֮ אֱלֹהִ֪ים אַֽל־תַּעַ֫זְבֵ֥נִי עַד־אַגִּ֣יד זְרֹועֲךָ֣ לְדֹ֑ור לְכָל־יָ֝בֹ֗וא גְּבוּרָתֶֽךָ׃

19 And Thy righteousness, O God, `is' unto the heights, Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who `is' like Thee?

19 וְצִדְקָתְךָ֥ אֱלֹהִ֗ים עַד־מָ֫רֹ֥ום אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֥יתָ גְדֹלֹ֑ות אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים מִ֣י כָמֹֽוךָ׃

20 Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.

20 אֲשֶׁ֤ר הִרְאִיתַנוּ הִרְאִיתַ֨נִי׀ צָרֹ֥ות רַבֹּ֗ות וְרָ֫עֹ֥ות תָּשׁ֥וּב תְּחַיֵּינוּ תְּחַיֵּ֑ינִי וּֽמִתְּהֹמֹ֥ות הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ תָּשׁ֥וּב תַּעֲלֵֽנִי׃

21 Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest -- Thou comfortest me,

21 תֶּ֤רֶב׀ גְּֽדֻלָּתִ֗י וְתִסֹּ֥ב תְּֽנַחֲמֵֽנִי׃

22 I also thank Thee with a vessel of psaltery, Thy truth, O my God, I sing to Thee with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,

22 גַּם־אֲנִ֤י׀ אֹודְךָ֣ בִכְלִי־נֶבֶל֮ אֲמִתְּךָ֪ אֱלֹ֫הָ֥י אֲזַמְּרָ֣ה לְךָ֣ בְכִנֹּ֑ור קְ֝דֹ֗ושׁ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

23 My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to Thee, And my soul that Thou hast redeemed,

23 תְּרַנֵּ֣נָּ֣ה פָתַי כִּ֣י אֲזַמְּרָה־לָּ֑ךְ וְ֝נַפְשִׁ֗י אֲשֶׁ֣ר פָּדִֽיתָ׃

24 My tongue also all the day uttereth Thy righteousness, Because ashamed -- because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!

24 גַּם־לְשֹׁונִ֗י כָּל־הַ֭יֹּום תֶּהְגֶּ֣ה צִדְקָתֶ֑ךָ כִּי־בֹ֥שׁוּ כִֽי־חָ֝פְר֗וּ מְבַקְשֵׁ֥י רָעָתִֽי׃
