1מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד בִּהְיוֹתוֹ בְּמִדְבַּר יְהוּדָֽהA psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah.Mizmor ledavid bihyoto bemidbar yehudah
2אֱלֹהִים אֵלִי אַתָּה אֲֽשַׁחֲרֶךָּ צָמְאָה לְךָ נַפְשִׁי כָּמַהּ לְךָ בְשָׂרִי בְּאֶרֶץ־צִיָּה וְעָיֵף בְּלִי־מָֽיִםGod, You are my God; I search for You, my soul thirsts for You, my body yearns for You, as a parched and thirsty land that has no water.Elohim eli atah ashacharecha tzamah lecha nafshi kamah lecha vesari beeretz-tziyah veayef beli-mayim
3כֵּן בַּקֹּדֶשׁ חֲזִיתִךָ לִרְאוֹת עֻזְּךָ וּכְבוֹדֶֽךָI shall behold You in the sanctuary, and see Your might and glory,Ken bakodesh chaziticha lirot uzcha uchvodecha
4כִּי־טוֹב חַסְדְּךָ מֵחַיִּים שְׂפָתַי יְשַׁבְּחֽוּנְךָTruly Your faithfulness is better than life; my lips declare Your praise.Ki-tov chasdcha mechayim sefatay yeshabchuncha
5כֵּן אֲבָרֶכְךָ בְחַיָּי בְּשִׁמְךָ אֶשָּׂא כַפָּֽיI bless You all my life; I lift up my hands, invoking Your name.Ken avarechcha vechayay beshimcha esa chapay
6כְּמוֹ חֵלֶב וָדֶשֶׁן תִּשְׂבַּע נַפְשִׁי וְשִׂפְתֵי רְנָנוֹת יְהַלֶּל־פִּֽיI am sated as with a rich feast, I sing praises with joyful lipsKemo chelev vadeshen tisba nafshi vesiftey renanot yehalel-pi
7אִם־זְכַרְתִּיךָ עַל־יְצוּעָי בְּאַשְׁמֻרוֹת אֶהְגֶּה־בָּֽךְwhen I call You to mind upon my bed, when I think of You in the watches of the night—Im-zecharticha al-yetzuay beashmurot ehgeh-bach
8כִּֽי־הָיִיתָ עֶזְרָתָה לִּי וּבְצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ אֲרַנֵּֽןfor You are my help, and in the shadow of Your wings I shout for joy.Ki-hayita ezratah li uvtzel kenafeycha aranen
9דָּבְקָה נַפְשִׁי אַחֲרֶיךָ בִּי תָּמְכָה יְמִינֶֽךָMy soul is attached to You; Your right hand supports me.Davkah nafshi achareycha bi tamchah yeminecha
10וְהֵמָּה לְשׁוֹאָה יְבַקְשׁוּ נַפְשִׁי יָבֹאוּ בְּֽתַחְתִּיּוֹת הָאָֽרֶץMay those who seek to destroy my life enter the depths of the earth.Vehemah leshoah yevakshu nafshi yavou betachtiot haaretz
11יַגִּירֻהוּ עַל־יְדֵי־חָרֶב מְנָת שֻׁעָלִים יִהְיֽוּMay they be gutted by the sword; may they be prey to jackals.Yagiruhu al-yedey-charev menat shualim yihyu
12וְהַמֶּלֶךְ יִשְׂמַח בֵּאלֹהִים יִתְהַלֵּל כׇּל־הַנִּשְׁבָּע בּוֹ כִּי יִסָּכֵר פִּי דוֹבְרֵי־שָֽׁקֶרBut the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by [God] shall exult, when the mouth of liars is stopped.Vehamelech yismach belohim yithalel kol-hanishba bo ki yisacher pi dovrey-shaker
