Ps 139

FFor the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. O Lord, You have searched me and known me. (LXX 138:1; Rahlfs 138:1) לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִ֣ד מִזְמ֑וֹר יְהוָ֥ה חֲ֝קַרְתַּ֗נִי וַתֵּדָֽע׃ 2You know when I sit and when I rise; You understand my thoughts from afar. (LXX 138:2; Rahlfs 138:2) אַתָּ֣ה יָ֭דַעְתָּ שִׁבְתִּ֣י וְקוּמִ֑י בַּ֥נְתָּה לְ֝רֵעִ֗י מֵרָחֽוֹק׃ 3You search out my path and my lying down; You are aware of all my ways. (LXX 138:3; Rahlfs 138:3) אָרְחִ֣י וְרִבְעִ֣י זֵרִ֑יתָ וְֽכָל־דְּרָכַ֥י הִסְכַּֽנְתָּה׃ 4Even before a word is on my tongue, You know all about it, O Lord. (LXX 138:4; Rahlfs 138:4) כִּ֤י אֵ֣ין מִ֭לָּה בִּלְשׁוֹנִ֑י הֵ֥ן יְ֝הוָ֗ה יָדַ֥עְתָּ כֻלָּֽהּ׃ 5You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me. (LXX 138:5; Rahlfs 138:5) אָח֣וֹר וָקֶ֣דֶם צַרְתָּ֑נִי וַתָּ֖שֶׁת עָלַ֣י כַּפֶּֽכָה׃ 6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. (LXX 138:6; Rahlfs 138:6) פלאיה דַ֣עַת מִמֶּ֑נִּי נִ֝שְׂגְּבָ֗ה לֹא־א֥וּכַֽל לָֽהּ׃ 7Where can I go to escape Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence? (LXX 138:7; Rahlfs 138:7) אָ֭נָ֥ה אֵלֵ֣ךְ מֵרוּחֶ֑ךָ וְ֝אָ֗נָה מִפָּנֶ֥יךָ אֶבְרָֽח׃ 8If I ascend to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there. (LXX 138:8; Rahlfs 138:8) אִם־אֶסַּ֣ק שָׁ֭מַיִם שָׁ֣ם אָ֑תָּה וְאַצִּ֖יעָה שְּׁא֣וֹל הִנֶּֽךָּ׃ 9If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle by the farthest sea, (LXX 138:9; Rahlfs 138:9) אֶשָּׂ֥א כַנְפֵי־שָׁ֑חַר אֶ֝שְׁכְּנָ֗ה בְּאַחֲרִ֥ית יָֽם׃ 10even there Your hand will guide me; Your right hand will hold me fast. (LXX 138:10; Rahlfs 138:10) גַּם־שָׁ֭ם יָדְךָ֣ תַנְחֵ֑נִי וְֽתֹאחֲזֵ֥נִי יְמִינֶֽךָ׃ 11If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me, and the light become night around me”— (LXX 138:11; Rahlfs 138:11) וָ֭אֹמַר אַךְ־חֹ֣שֶׁךְ יְשׁוּפֵ֑נִי וְ֝לַ֗יְלָה א֣וֹר בַּעֲדֵֽנִי׃ 12even the darkness is not dark to You, but the night shines like the day, for darkness is as light to You. (LXX 138:12; Rahlfs 138:12) גַּם־חֹשֶׁךְ֮ לֹֽא־יַחְשִׁ֪יךְ מִ֫מֶּ֥ךָ וְ֭לַיְלָה כַּיּ֣וֹם יָאִ֑יר כַּ֝חֲשֵׁיכָ֗ה כָּאוֹרָֽה׃ 13For You formed my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. (LXX 138:13; Rahlfs 138:13) כִּֽי־אַ֭תָּה קָנִ֣יתָ כִלְיֹתָ֑י תְּ֝סֻכֵּ֗נִי בְּבֶ֣טֶן אִמִּֽי׃ 14I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works, and I know this very well. (LXX 138:14; Rahlfs 138:14) אֽוֹדְךָ֗ עַ֤ל כִּ֥י נוֹרָא֗וֹת נִ֫פְלֵ֥יתִי נִפְלָאִ֥ים מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ וְ֝נַפְשִׁ֗י יֹדַ֥עַת מְאֹֽד׃ 15My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in secret, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. (LXX 138:15; Rahlfs 138:15) לֹא־נִכְחַ֥ד עָצְמִ֗י מִ֫מֶּ֥ךָּ אֲשֶׁר־עֻשֵּׂ֥יתִי בַסֵּ֑תֶר רֻ֝קַּ֗מְתִּי בְּֽתַחְתִּיּ֥וֹת אָֽרֶץ׃ 16Your eyes saw my unformed body; all my days were written in Your book and ordained for me before one of them came to be. (LXX 138:16; Rahlfs 138:16) גָּלְמִ֤י ׀ רָ֘א֤וּ עֵינֶ֗יךָ וְעַֽל־סִפְרְךָ֮ כֻּלָּ֪ם יִכָּ֫תֵ֥בוּ יָמִ֥ים יֻצָּ֑רוּ ולא אֶחָ֣ד בָּהֶֽם׃ 17How precious to me are Your thoughts, O God, how vast is their sum! (LXX 138:17; Rahlfs 138:17) וְלִ֗י מַה־יָּקְר֣וּ רֵעֶ֣יךָ אֵ֑ל מֶ֥ה עָ֝צְמוּ רָאשֵׁיהֶֽם׃ 18If I were to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand; and when I awake, I am still with You. (LXX 138:18; Rahlfs 138:18) אֶ֭סְפְּרֵם מֵח֣וֹל יִרְבּ֑וּן הֱ֝קִיצֹ֗תִי וְעוֹדִ֥י עִמָּֽךְ׃ 19O God, that You would slay the wicked—away from me, you bloodthirsty men— (LXX 138:19; Rahlfs 138:19) אִם־תִּקְטֹ֖ל אֱל֥וֹהַּ ׀ רָשָׁ֑ע וְאַנְשֵׁ֥י דָ֝מִ֗ים ס֣וּרוּ מֶֽנִּי׃ 20who speak of You deceitfully; Your enemies take Your name in vain. (LXX 138:20; Rahlfs 138:20) אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֹ֭אמְרֻךָ לִמְזִמָּ֑ה נָשֻׂ֖א לַשָּׁ֣וְא עָרֶֽיךָ׃ 21Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord, and detest those who rise against You? (LXX 138:21; Rahlfs 138:21) הֲלֽוֹא־מְשַׂנְאֶ֖יךָ יְהוָ֥ה ׀ אֶשְׂנָ֑א וּ֝בִתְקוֹמְמֶ֗יךָ אֶתְקוֹטָֽט׃ 22I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them as my enemies. (LXX 138:22; Rahlfs 138:22) תַּכְלִ֣ית שִׂנְאָ֣ה שְׂנֵאתִ֑ים לְ֝אוֹיְבִ֗ים הָ֣יוּ לִֽי׃ 23Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my concerns. (LXX 138:23; Rahlfs 138:23) חָקְרֵ֣נִי אֵ֭ל וְדַ֣ע לְבָבִ֑י בְּ֝חָנֵ֗נִי וְדַ֣ע שַׂרְעַפָּֽי׃ 24See if there is any offensive way in me; lead me in the way everlasting. (LXX 138:24; Rahlfs 138:24) וּרְאֵ֗ה אִם־דֶּֽרֶךְ־עֹ֥צֶב בִּ֑י וּ֝נְחֵ֗נִי בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ עוֹלָֽם׃
