- 1[To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil.] We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ לִבְנֵי קֹ֬רַח מַשְׂכִּֽיל
- 2How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.אֱלֹהִ֤ים בְּאָזְנֵ֬ינוּ שָׁמַ֗עְנוּ אֲבוֹתֵ֥ינוּ סִפְּרוּ פֹּ֥עַל פָּעַ֥לְתָּ בִֽ֝ימֵיהֶ֗ם בִּ֣ימֵי קֶֽדֶם
- 3For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.אַתָּ֤ה יָדְךָ֡ גּוֹיִ֣ם ה֭וֹרַשְׁתָּ וַתִּטָּעֵ֑ם תָּרַ֥ע לְ֝אֻמִּ֗ים וַֽתְּשַׁלְּחֵֽם
- 4Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.כִּ֤י לֹ֪א בְחַרְבָּ֡ם יָ֥רְשׁוּ אָ֗רֶץ וּזְרוֹעָם֮ לֹא הוֹשִׁ֪יעָ֫ה כִּֽי יְמִֽינְךָ֣ וּ֭זְרוֹעֲךָ וְא֥וֹר פָּנֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣י רְצִיתָֽם
- 5Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.אַתָּה ה֣וּא מַלְכִּ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים צַ֝וֵּ֗ה יְשׁוּע֥וֹת יַעֲקֹֽב
- 6For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.צָרֵ֣ינוּ נְנַגֵּ֑חַ בְּ֝שִׁמְךָ֗ נָב֥וּס קָמֵֽינוּ
- 7But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.כִּ֤י לֹ֣א בְקַשְׁתִּ֣י אֶבְטָ֑ח וְ֝חַרְבִּ֗י לֹ֣א תוֹשִׁיעֵֽנִי
- 8In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.כִּ֣י ה֭וֹשַׁעְתָּנוּ מִצָּרֵ֑ינוּ וּמְשַׂנְאֵ֥ינוּ הֱבִישֽׁוֹתָ
- 9But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.בֵּֽ֭אלֹהִים הִלַּלְ֣נוּ כָל הַיּ֑וֹם וְשִׁמְךָ֓ לְעוֹלָ֖ם נוֹדֶ֣ה סֶֽלָה
- 10Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.אַף זָ֭נַחְתָּ וַתַּכְלִימֵ֑נוּ וְלֹא תֵ֝צֵ֗א בְּצִבְאוֹתֵֽינוּ
- 11Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.תְּשִׁיבֵ֣נוּ אָ֭חוֹר מִנִּי צָ֑ר וּ֝מְשַׂנְאֵ֗ינוּ שָׁ֣סוּ
- 12Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.תִּ֭תְּנֵנוּ כְּצֹ֣אן מַאֲכָ֑ל וּ֝בַגּוֹיִ֗ם זֵרִיתָֽנוּ
- 13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.תִּמְכֹּֽר עַמְּךָ֥ בְלֹא ה֑וֹן וְלֹ֥א רִ֝בִּ֗יתָ בִּמְחִירֵיהֶֽם
- 14Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.תְּשִׂימֵ֣נוּ חֶ֭רְפָּה לִשְׁכֵנֵ֑ינוּ לַ֥עַג וָ֝קֶ֗לֶס לִסְבִיבוֹתֵֽינוּ
- 15My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,תְּשִׂימֵ֣נוּ מָ֭שָׁל בַּגּוֹיִ֑ם מְנֽוֹד רֹ֝֗אשׁ בַּל אֻמִּֽים
- 16For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.כָּל הַ֭יּוֹם כְּלִמָּתִ֣י נֶגְדִּ֑י וּבֹ֖שֶׁת פָּנַ֣י כִּסָּֽתְנִי
- 17All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.מִ֭קּוֹל מְחָרֵ֣ף וּמְגַדֵּ֑ף מִפְּנֵ֥י א֝וֹיֵ֗ב וּמִתְנַקֵּֽם
- 18Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;כָּל זֹ֣את בָּ֭אַתְנוּ וְלֹ֣א שְׁכַחֲנ֑וּךָ וְלֹֽא שִׁ֝קַּ֗רְנוּ בִּבְרִיתֶֽךָ
- 19Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.לֹא נָס֣וֹג אָח֣וֹר לִבֵּ֑נוּ וַתֵּ֥ט אֲשֻׁרֵ֗ינוּ מִנִּ֥י אָרְחֶֽךָ
- 20If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;כִּ֣י דִ֭כִּיתָנוּ בִּמְק֣וֹם תַּנִּ֑ים וַתְּכַ֖ס עָלֵ֣ינוּ בְצַלְמָֽוֶת
- 21Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.אִם שָׁ֭כַחְנוּ שֵׁ֣ם אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ וַנִּפְרֹ֥שׂ כַּ֝פֵּ֗ינוּ לְאֵ֣ל זָֽר
- 22Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.הֲלֹ֣א אֱ֭לֹהִים יַֽחֲקָר זֹ֑את כִּֽי ה֥וּא יֹ֝דֵ֗עַ תַּעֲלֻמ֥וֹת לֵֽב
- 23Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.כִּֽי עָ֭לֶיךָ הֹרַ֣גְנוּ כָל הַיּ֑וֹם נֶ֝חְשַׁ֗בְנוּ כְּצֹ֣אן טִבְחָֽה
- 24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?ע֤וּרָה לָ֖מָּה תִישַׁ֥ן אֲדֹנָ֑י הָ֝קִ֗יצָה אַל תִּזְנַ֥ח לָנֶֽצַח
- 25For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.לָֽמָּה פָנֶ֥יךָ תַסְתִּ֑יר תִּשְׁכַּ֖ח עָנְיֵ֣נוּ וְֽלַחֲצֵֽנוּ
- 26Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.כִּ֤י שָׁ֣חָה לֶעָפָ֣ר נַפְשֵׁ֑נוּ דָּבְקָ֖ה לָאָ֣רֶץ בִּטְנֵֽנוּ

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
