חׇנֵּ֤נִי אֱלֹהִ֨ים ׀ חׇנֵּ֗נִי כִּ֥י בְךָ֮ חָסָ֢יָה נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י וּבְצֵֽל־כְּנָפֶ֥יךָ אֶחְסֶ֑ה עַ֝֗ד יַעֲבֹ֥ר הַוּֽוֹת׃

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me,
for I seek refuge in You,
I seek refuge in the shadow of Your wings,
until danger passes.

to God who is good to me,

who will reach down from heaven and deliver me—
sending down steadfast love;
my persecutor reviles.    Selah.

נַפְשִׁ֤י ׀ בְּת֥וֹךְ לְבָאִם֮ אֶשְׁכְּבָ֢ה לֹ֫הֲטִ֥ים בְּֽנֵי־אָדָ֗ם שִׁ֭נֵּיהֶם חֲנִ֣ית וְחִצִּ֑ים וּ֝לְשׁוֹנָ֗ם חֶ֣רֶב חַדָּֽה׃

As for me, I lie down among lions who devour humans—
whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongue is a sharp sword.

let Your glory be over all the earth!

They prepared a net for my feet to ensnare me;
they dug a pit for me,
but they fell into it.    Selah.

ח׳

נָ֘כ֤וֹן לִבִּ֣י אֱ֭לֹהִים נָכ֣וֹן לִבִּ֑י אָ֝שִׁ֗ירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃

My heart is firm, O God;
my heart is firm;
I will sing, I will chant a hymn.

Awake, O my soul!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will wake the dawn.

I will praise You among the peoples, O my Sovereign;
I will sing a hymn to You among the nations—

כִּֽי־גָדֹ֣ל עַד־שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

for Your faithfulness is as high as heaven;
Your steadfastness reaches to the sky.
