For the leader
A Psalm of David
יְהוָה answer you in the day of trouble
the name of the God of Jacob set you on high
send you help from his holiness
and from Zion establish you
remember all your offerings
and fatten your holocausts
Selahthe name of the God of Jacob set you on high
send you help from his holiness
and from Zion establish you
remember all your offerings
and fatten your holocausts
May he give you your heart's desire
and fulfill all your counsel
We will rejoice in your salvation
and in the name of our God we bear our standard
יְהוָה will fulfill all your requests
and fulfill all your counsel
We will rejoice in your salvation
and in the name of our God we bear our standard
יְהוָה will fulfill all your requests
Now I know יְהוָה will save his anointed
he will answer from his holy heaven
in the strength of the salvation of his right hand
Some in the chariots and some in the horses
but we ourselves the name of יְהוָה our God remember
They are cut down and fallen
but we ourselves are risen and restored
יְהוָה save the king
and answer us in the day of our call
he will answer from his holy heaven
in the strength of the salvation of his right hand
Some in the chariots and some in the horses
but we ourselves the name of יְהוָה our God remember
They are cut down and fallen
but we ourselves are risen and restored
יְהוָה save the king
and answer us in the day of our call
For the leader
A Psalm of David
A king joys in your strength יְהוָה
and in your salvation how greatly he will rejoice
You have given him his heart's desire
and the request of his lips you have not withheld
Selahand in your salvation how greatly he will rejoice
You have given him his heart's desire
and the request of his lips you have not withheld
for you go before him with blessings of good
you place on his head a crown of pure gold
Life he asked of you
you have given him length of days now and for ever
Great is his glory in your salvation
splendor and adorning you lay upon him
for you will place on him blessings for ever
you have filled him with the joy of your presence
for the king trusts in יְהוָה
and in the loving-kindness of the highest he will not be moved
you place on his head a crown of pure gold
Life he asked of you
you have given him length of days now and for ever
Great is his glory in your salvation
splendor and adorning you lay upon him
for you will place on him blessings for ever
you have filled him with the joy of your presence
for the king trusts in יְהוָה
and in the loving-kindness of the highest he will not be moved
your hand will find out all your enemies
your right hand will find those hating you
you will place them as a furnace of fire in the time of your presence
יְהוָה in his wrath will swallow them
and fire will devour them
you will destroy their fruit from the earth
and their seed from the children of the dust
for they stretched out evil against you
they planned a device they cannot do
for you will place them on their backs
with your bow-strings you will be ready for their presence
be exalted יְהוָה in your strength
we will sing and praise your power
Five times the poet uses the same word. How can I find a word or device that will signal the shape in this foreign tongue?
your right hand will find those hating you
you will place them as a furnace of fire in the time of your presence
יְהוָה in his wrath will swallow them
and fire will devour them
you will destroy their fruit from the earth
and their seed from the children of the dust
for they stretched out evil against you
they planned a device they cannot do
for you will place them on their backs
with your bow-strings you will be ready for their presence
be exalted יְהוָה in your strength
we will sing and praise your power
