לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד:
For the conductor, a song about David.
יְהוָה בְּעָזְּךָ יִשְׂמַח מֶלֶךְ וּבִישׁוּעָתְךָ מַה יָּגֶיל מְאֹד:
O Lord, may the king rejoice with Your strength, and how greatly does he exult with Your salvation!
תַּאֲוַת לִבּוֹ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ וַאֲרֶשֶׁת שְׂפָתָיו בַּל מָנַעְתָּ סֶּלָה:
You gave him his heart's desire, and the speech of his lips You have never withheld.
כִּי תְקַדְּמֶנּוּ בִּרְכוֹת טוֹב תָּשִׁית לְרֹאשׁוֹ עֲטֶרֶת פָּז:
For You have preceded him with the blessings of the good man; You have placed a gold crown on his head.
חַיִּים שָׁאַל מִמְּךָ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ אֹרֶךְ יָמִים עוֹלָם וָעֶד:
He asked You for life; You gave it to him, length of days forever and ever.
גָּדוֹל כְּבוֹדוֹ בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ הוֹד וְהָדָר תְּשַׁוֶּה עָלָיו:
His glory is great in Your salvation; majesty and beauty You place upon him.
כִּי תְשִׁיתֵהוּ בְרָכוֹת לָעַד תְּחַדֵּהוּ בְשִׂמְחָה אֶת פָּנֶיךָ:
For You make him blessings forever; You shall make him happy with joy before You.
כִּי הַמֶּלֶךְ בֹּטֵחַ בַּיהוָה וּבְחֶסֶד עֶלְיוֹן בַּל יִמּוֹט:
For the king trusts in the Lord and in the loving- kindness of the Most High, that he should not falter.
תִּמְצָא יָדְךָ לְכָל אֹיְבֶיךָ יְמִינְךָ תִּמְצָא שֹׂנְאֶיךָ:
Your hand shall suffice for all Your enemies; Your right hand shall suffice for those who hate You.
תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ כְּתַנּוּר אֵשׁ לְעֵת פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָה בְּאַפּוֹ יְבַלְּעֵם וְתֹאכְלֵם אֵשׁ:
You shall place them as a fiery furnace at the time of Your anger; may the Lord destroy them with His wrath and may fire consume them.
פִּרְיָמוֹ מֵאֶרֶץ תְּאַבֵּד וְזַרְעָם מִבְּנֵי אָדָם:
You shall destroy their fruit from the earth and their seed from the sons of man.
כִּי נָטוּ עָלֶיךָ רָעָה חָשְׁבוּ מְזִמָּה בַּל יוּכָלוּ:
For they have directed evil against You; they have devised a plot that they cannot [execute].
כִּי תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ שֶׁכֶם בְּמֵיתָרֶיךָ תְּכוֹנֵן עַל פְּנֵיהֶם:
For You shall place them as a portion; with Your bowstrings You shall set [Your arrows] toward their faces.
רוּמָה יְהוָה בְּעֻזֶּךָ נָשִׁירָה וּנְזַמְּרָה גְּבוּרָתֶךָ:
Exalt Yourself, O Lord, with Your strength; let us sing and chant of Your might.
