לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל יְדוּתוּן מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד:
For the conductor, on jeduthun, a song of David.
אַךְ אֶל אֱלֹהִים דּוּמִיָּה נַפְשִׁי מִמֶּנּוּ יְשׁוּעָתִי:
Only to God does my soul hope for silently; from Him is my salvation.
אַךְ הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא אֶמּוֹט רַבָּה:
Only He is my Rock and my salvation, my stronghold so that I shall not falter greatly.
עַד אָנָה תְּהוֹתְתוּ עַל אִישׁ תְּרָצְּחוּ כֻלְּכֶם כְּקִיר נָטוּי גָּדֵר הַדְּחוּיָה:
How long will you plan destruction to man? You shall be murdered, all of you, as a leaning wall, a tottering fence.
אַךְ מִשְּׂאֵתוֹ יָעֲצוּ לְהַדִּיחַ יִרְצוּ כָזָב בְּפִיו יְבָרֵכוּ וּבְקִרְבָּם יְקַלְלוּ סֶלָה:
Only because of his loftiness have they plotted to topple him; they delight in lies; with his mouth they bless, but inwardly they curse forever.
אַךְ לֵאלֹהִים דּוֹמִּי נַפְשִׁי כִּי מִמֶּנּוּ תִּקְוָתִי:
Only to God should you hope, my soul, for my hope is from Him.
אַךְ הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא אֶמּוֹט:
Only He is my Rock and my salvation; my stronghold, I shall not falter.
עַל אֱלֹהִים יִשְׁעִי וּכְבוֹדִי צוּר עֻזִּי מַחְסִי בֵּאלֹהִים:
Upon God rests my salvation and my honor; [He is] the Rock of my strength, my shelter is in God.
בִּטְחוּ בוֹ בְכָל עֵת עָם שִׁפְכוּ לְפָנָיו לְבַבְכֶם אֱלֹהִים מַחֲסֶה לָּנוּ סֶלָה:
Trust in Him at all times; people, pour out your hearts before Him. God is our shelter forever.
אַךְ הֶבֶל בְּנֵי אָדָם כָּזָב בְּנֵי אִישׁ בְּמֹאזְנַיִם לַעֲלוֹת הֵמָּה מֵהֶבֶל יָחַד:
The sons of men are but vanity, and men of distinction are deceitful; were they to be put on a scale, together they would equal vanity.
אַל תִּבְטְחוּ בְעֹשֶׁק וּבְגָזֵל אַל תֶּהְבָּלוּ חַיִל כִּי יָנוּב אַל תָּשִׁיתוּ לֵב:
Do not trust in oppression, and do not put vain hope in robbery; if wealth burgeons, pay it no heed.
אַחַת דִּבֶּר אֱלֹהִים שְׁתַּיִם זוּ שָׁמָעְתִּי כִּי עֹז לֵאלֹהִים:
God spoke one thing, I heard two, for God has strength.
וּלְךָ אֲדֹנָי חָסֶד כִּי אַתָּה תְשַׁלֵּם לְאִישׁ כְּמַעֲשֵׂהוּ:
And You, O Lord, have kindness, for You repay a man according to his deed.
