SONG: He Heard My Cry - TEHILLIM 40 - תהילים מ' LYRICS: 1For the conductor, of David a song. לַֽמְנַצֵּ֖חַ לְדָוִ֥ד מִזְמֽוֹר: 2I have greatly hoped for the Lord, and He extended [His ear] to me and heard my cry. קַוֹּ֣ה קִוִּ֣יתִי יְהֹוָ֑ה וַיֵּ֥ט אֵ֜לַ֗י וַיִּשְׁמַ֥ע שַׁוְעָתִֽי: 3And He drew me up out of the roaring pit, from the thick mire, and He set my feet upon a rock, He established my steps. וַיַּ֚עֲלֵ֨נִי | מִבּ֥וֹר שָׁאוֹן֘ מִטִּ֪יט הַיָּוֵ֥ן וַיָּ֖קֶם עַל־סֶ֥לַע רַ֜גְלָ֗י כּוֹנֵ֥ן אֲשֻׁרָֽי: 4He put a new song into my mouth, a praise to our God, so that many may see and fear, and trust in the Lord. וַיִּתֵּ֬ן בְּפִ֨י | שִׁ֥יר חָדָשׁ֘ תְּהִלָּ֪ה לֵֽאלֹ֫הֵ֥ינוּ יִרְא֣וּ רַבִּ֣ים וְיִירָ֑אוּ וְ֜יִבְטְח֗וּ בַּֽיהֹוָֽה: 5Praiseworthy is the man who made the Lord his trust, and did not turn to the haughty and those who turn to falsehood. אַֽשְֽׁרֵ֥י הַגֶּ֗בֶר אֲשֶׁר־שָׂ֣ם יְ֖הֹוָה מִבְטַח֑וֹ וְֽלֹֽא־פָנָ֥ה אֶל־רְ֜הָבִ֗ים וְשָׂטֵ֥י כָזָֽב: 6You have done great things, You, O Lord my God. Your wonders and Your thoughts are for us. There is none to equal You; were I to tell and speak, they would be too many to tell. רַבּ֚וֹת עָשִׂ֨יתָ | אַתָּ֚ה יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהַי֘ נִפְלְאֹתֶ֥יךָ וּמַחְשְׁבֹתֶ֗יךָ אֵ֫לֵ֥ינוּ אֵ֚ין | עֲרֹ֬ךְ אֵלֶ֗יךָ אַגִּ֥ידָה וַֽאֲדַבֵּ֑רָה עָֽ֜צְמ֗וּ מִסַּפֵּֽר: 7You desired neither sacrifice nor meal offering; You dug ears for me; a burnt offering or a sin offering You did not request. זֶ֚בַח וּמִנְחָ֨ה | לֹֽא־חָפַ֗צְתָּ אָ֖זְנַיִם כָּרִ֣יתָ לִּ֑י עוֹלָ֥ה וַֽ֜חֲטָאָ֗ה לֹ֣א שָׁאָֽלְתָּ: 8Then I said, "Behold I have come," with a scroll of a book written for me. אָ֣ז אָ֖מַרְתִּי הִנֵּה־בָ֑אתִי בִּמְגִלַּת־סֵ֜֗פֶר כָּת֥וּב עָלָֽי: 9O God, I desired to do Your will and [to have] Your law within my innards. לַֽעֲשׂ֬וֹת רְצֽוֹנְךָ֣ אֱלֹהַ֣י חָפָ֑צְתִּי וְ֜תוֹרָֽתְךָ֗ בְּת֣וֹךְ מֵעָֽי: 10I brought tidings of righteousness in a great assembly. Behold, I will not withhold my lips, O Lord, You know. בִּשַּׂ֚רְתִּי צֶ֨דֶק | בְּקָ֘הָ֚ל רָ֗ב הִנֵּ֣ה שְׂ֖פָתַי לֹ֣א אֶכְלָ֑א יְ֜הֹוָ֗ה אַתָּ֥ה יָדָֽעְתָּ: 11I did not conceal Your charity within my heart; I stated Your faith and Your salvation-I did not withhold Your kindness and truth-to a great assembly. צִדְקָֽתְךָ֚ לֹֽא־כִסִּ֨יתִי | בְּת֬וֹךְ לִבִּ֗י אֱמוּנָֽתְךָ֣ וּתְשׁוּעָֽתְךָ֣ אָמָ֑רְתִּי לֹא־כִחַ֖דְתִּי חַסְדְּךָ֥ וַֽ֜אֲמִתְּךָ֗ לְקָהָ֥ל רָֽב: 12You, O Lord, do not withhold Your mercies from me; may Your kindness and Your truth always watch me. אַתָּ֚ה יְהֹוָ֗ה לֹא־תִכְלָ֣א רַֽחֲמֶ֣יךָ מִמֶּ֑נִּי חַסְדְּךָ֥ וַֽ֜אֲמִתְּךָ֗ תָּמִ֥יד יִצְּרֽוּנִי: 13For countless evils have encompassed me; my iniquities have overtaken me and I could not see [them because] they are more numerous than the hairs of my head, and my heart has forsaken me. כִּ֚י אָֽפְפ֨וּ עָלַ֪י רָע֡וֹת עַד־אֵ֬ין מִסְפָּ֗ר הִשִּׂיג֣וּנִי עֲ֖ו‍ֹנֹתַי וְלֹא־יָכֹ֣לְתִּי לִרְא֑וֹת עָֽצְמ֖וּ מִשַּֽׂעֲר֥וֹת רֹ֜אשִׁ֗י וְלִבִּ֥י עֲזָבָֽנִי: 14O Lord, be willing to save me; O Lord, hasten to my help. רְצֵֽה־ יְ֖הֹוָה לְהַצִּילֵ֑נִי יְ֜הֹוָ֗ה לְעֶזְרָ֥תִי חֽוּשָׁה: 15May those who seek my soul to destroy it be shamed and embarrassed together; may those who seek to harm me retreat and be humiliated. יֵבֹ֚שׁוּ וְיַחְפְּר֨וּ | יַחַד֘ מְבַקְשֵׁ֥י נַפְשִׁ֗י לִסְפּ֫וֹתָ֥הּ יִסֹּ֣גוּ אָ֖חוֹר וְיִכָּֽלְמ֑וּ חֲ֜פֵצֵ֗י רָֽעָתִֽי: 16May they be bewildered afterwards because of their shame, those who say about me, "Aha! Aha!" יָשֹֽׁמּוּ עַל־עֵ֣קֶב בָּשְׁתָּ֑ם הָאֹֽמְרִ֥ים לִ֜֗י הֶאָ֥ח | הֶאָֽח: 17All who seek You shall exult and rejoice; those who love Your salvation shall constantly say, "May the Lord be magnified." יָ֘שִׂ֚ישׂוּ וְיִשְׂמְח֨וּ | בְּךָ֗ כָּל־מְבַ֫קְשֶׁ֥יךָ יֹֽאמְר֣וּ תָ֖מִיד יִגְדַּ֣ל יְהֹוָ֑ה אֹֽ֜הֲבֵ֗י תְּשֽׁוּעָתֶֽךָ: 18But I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my help and my rescuer, my God; do not delay. וַֽאֲנִ֚י | עָנִ֣י וְאֶבְיוֹן֘ אֲדֹנָ֪י יַֽחֲשָׁב֫ לִ֥י עֶזְרָתִ֣י וּמְפַלְטִ֣י אַ֑תָּה אֱ֜לֹהַ֗י אַל־תְּאַחַֽר: #teshuvaMusic #jewishmusic #beezrathashem #rabbiyaronreuven #tehillim #KINGDAVID #DAVIDHAMELECH #psalms
