- 1[To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.] Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ תַּשְׁחֵת֮ לְדָוִ֪ד מִ֫כְתָּ֥ם בִּשְׁלֹ֥חַ שָׁא֑וּל וַֽיִּשְׁמְר֥וּ אֶת הַ֝בַּ֗יִת לַהֲמִיתֽוֹ
- 2Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.הַצִּילֵ֖נִי מֵאֹיְבַ֥י אֱלֹהָ֑י מִּמִתְקוֹמְמַ֥י תְּשַׂגְּבֵֽנִי
- 3For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.הַ֭צִּילֵנִי מִפֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וּֽמֵאַנְשֵׁ֥י דָ֝מִ֗ים הוֹשִׁיעֵֽנִי
- 4They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.כִּ֤י הִנֵּ֪ה אָֽרְב֡וּ לְנַפְשִׁ֗י יָג֣וּרוּ עָלַ֣י עַזִ֑ים לֹא פִשְׁעִ֖י וְלֹא חַטָּאתִ֣י יְהוָֽה
- 5Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.בְּֽלִי עָ֭וֺן יְרוּצ֣וּן וְיִכּוֹנָ֑נוּ ע֖וּרָה לִקְרָאתִ֣י וּרְאֵה
- 6They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.וְאַתָּ֤ה יְהוָֽה אֱלֹהִ֥ים צְבָא֡וֹת אֱלֹ֘הֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל הָקִ֗יצָה לִפְקֹ֥ד כָּֽל הַגּוֹיִ֑ם אַל תָּחֹ֨ן כָּל בֹּ֖גְדֵי אָ֣וֶן סֶֽלָה
- 7Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?יָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיס֥וֹבְבוּ עִֽיר
- 8But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.הִנֵּ֤ה יַבִּ֘יע֤וּן בְּפִיהֶ֗ם חֲ֭רָבוֹת בְּשִׂפְתוֹתֵיהֶ֑ם כִּי מִ֥י שֹׁמֵֽעַ
- 9Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תִּשְׂחַק תִּ֝לְעַ֗ג לְכָל גּוֹיִֽם
- 10The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.עֻ֭זּוֹ אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֶשְׁמֹ֑רָה כִּֽי אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים מִשְׂגַּבִּֽי
- 11Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.אֱלֹהֵ֣י חסדו חַסְדִּ֣י יְקַדְּמֵ֑נִי אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים יַרְאֵ֥נִי בְשֹׁרְרָֽי
- 12For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.אַל תַּהַרְגֵ֤ם פֶּֽן יִשְׁכְּח֬וּ עַמִּ֗י הֲנִיעֵ֣מוֹ בְ֭חֵילְךָ וְהוֹרִידֵ֑מוֹ מָֽגִנֵּ֣נוּ אֲדֹנָֽי
- 13Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.חַטַּאת פִּ֗ימוֹ דְּֽבַר שְׂפָ֫תֵ֥ימוֹ וְיִלָּכְד֥וּ בִגְאוֹנָ֑ם וּמֵאָלָ֖ה וּמִכַּ֣חַשׁ יְסַפֵּֽרוּ
- 14And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.כַּלֵּ֥ה בְחֵמָה֮ כַּלֵּ֪ה וְֽאֵ֫ינֵ֥מוֹ וְֽיֵדְע֗וּ כִּֽי אֱ֭לֹהִים מֹשֵׁ֣ל בְּיַעֲקֹ֑ב לְאַפְסֵ֖י הָאָ֣רֶץ סֶֽלָה
- 15Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.וְיָשׁ֣וּבוּ לָ֭עֶרֶב יֶהֱמ֥וּ כַכָּ֗לֶב וִיס֥וֹבְבוּ עִֽיר
- 16But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.הֵ֭מָּה ינועון יְנִיע֣וּן לֶאֱכֹ֑ל אִם לֹ֥א יִ֝שְׂבְּע֗וּ וַיָּלִֽינוּ
- 17Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.וַאֲנִ֤י אָשִׁ֣יר עֻזֶּךָ֮ וַאֲרַנֵּ֥ן לַבֹּ֗קֶר חַ֫סְדֶּ֥ךָ כִּֽי הָיִ֣יתָ מִשְׂגָּ֣ב וּ֝מָנ֗וֹס בְּי֣וֹם צַר

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.
