[1]לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵ֗ת לְדָוִ֥ד מִכְתָּֽם׃ |
[1]If ye do indeed speak righteousness, then do ye judge rightly, ye sons of men. |
[2]הַֽאֻמְנָ֗ם אֵ֣לֶם צֶ֭דֶק תְּדַבֵּר֑וּן מֵישָׁרִ֥ים תִּ֝שְׁפְּט֗וּ בְּנֵ֣י אָדָֽם׃ |
[2]For ye work iniquities in your hearts in the earth: your hands plot unrighteousness. |
[3]אַף־בְּלֵב֮ עֹולֹ֪ת תִּפְעָ֫ל֥וּן בָּאָ֡רֶץ חֲמַ֥ס יְ֝דֵיכֶ֗ם תְּפַלֵּֽסֽוּן׃ |
[3]Sinners have gone astray from the womb: they go astray from the belly: they speak lies. |
[4]זֹ֣רוּ רְשָׁעִ֣ים מֵרָ֑חֶם תָּע֥וּ מִ֝בֶּ֗טֶן דֹּבְרֵ֥י כָזָֽב׃ |
[4]Their venom is like that of a serpent; as that of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears; |
[5]חֲמַת־לָ֗מֹו כִּדְמ֥וּת חֲמַת־נָחָ֑שׁ כְּמֹו־פֶ֥תֶן חֵ֝רֵ֗שׁ יַאְטֵ֥ם אָזְנֹֽו׃ |
[5]which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor heed the charm prepared skillfully by the wise. |
[6]אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־יִ֭שְׁמַע לְקֹ֣ול מְלַחֲשִׁ֑ים חֹובֵ֖ר חֲבָרִ֣ים מְחֻכָּֽם׃ |
[6]God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions. |
[7]אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים הֲרָס־שִׁנֵּ֥ימֹו בְּפִ֑ימֹו מַלְתְּעֹ֥ות כְּ֝פִירִ֗ים נְתֹ֣ץ ׀ יְהוָֽה׃ |
[7]They shall utterly pass away like water running through: he shall bend his bow till they shall fail. |
[8]יִמָּאֲס֣וּ כְמֹו־מַ֭יִם יִתְהַלְּכוּ־לָ֑מֹו יִדְרֹ֥ךְ [חִצֹּו כ] (חִ֝צָּ֗יו ק) כְּמֹ֣ו יִתְמֹלָֽלוּ׃ |
[8]They shall be destroyed as melted wax: the fire has fallen and they have not seen the sun. |
[9]כְּמֹ֣ו בְּלוּל תֶּ֣מֶס יַהֲלֹ֑ךְ נֵ֥פֶל אֵ֝֗שֶׁת בַּל־חָ֥זוּ שָֽׁמֶשׁ׃ |
[9]Before your thorns feel the white thorn, he shall swallow you up as living, as in his wrath. |
[10]בְּטֶ֤רֶם יָבִ֣ינוּ סִּֽירֹתֵיכֶ֣ם אָטָ֑ד כְּמֹו־חַ֥י כְּמֹו־חָ֝רֹ֗ון יִשְׂעָרֶֽנּוּ׃ |
[10]The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner. |
[11]יִשְׂמַ֣ח צַ֭דִּיק כִּי־חָזָ֣ה נָקָ֑ם פְּעָמָ֥יו יִ֝רְחַ֗ץ בְּדַ֣ם הָרָשָֽׁע׃ |
[11]And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judges them in the earth. |
[12]וְיֹאמַ֣ר אָ֭דָם אַךְ־פְּרִ֣י לַצַּדִּ֑יק אַ֥ךְ יֵשׁ־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים שֹׁפְטִ֥ים בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ |
