To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. How long wilt thou forgetH7911 me, O LORDH3068? for everH5331? how long wilt thou hideH5641 thy faceH6440 from me? {chief…: or, overseer}
How long shall I takeH7896 counselH6098 in my soulH5315, having sorrowH3015 in my heartH3824 dailyH3119? how long shall mine enemyH341 be exaltedH7311 over me?
ConsiderH5027 and hearH6030 me, O LORDH3068 my GodH430: lightenH215 mine eyesH5869, lest I sleepH3462 the sleep of deathH4194;
Lest mine enemyH341 sayH559, I have prevailedH3201 against him; and those that troubleH6862 me rejoiceH1523 when I am movedH4131.
But I have trustedH982 in thy mercyH2617; my heartH3820 shall rejoiceH1523 in thy salvationH3444.
I will singH7891 unto the LORDH3068, because he hath dealt bountifullyH1580 with me.
Querverweise zu Psalm 13,2 Ps 13,2
In the dayH3117 of my troubleH6869 I soughtH1875 the LordH136: my soreH3027 ranH5064 in the nightH3915, and ceasedH6313 not: my soulH5315 refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162. {sore: Heb. hand}
I rememberedH2142 GodH430, and was troubledH1993: I complainedH7878, and my spiritH7307 was overwhelmedH5848. SelahH5542.
Thou holdestH270 mine eyesH5869 wakingH8109: I am so troubledH6470 that I cannot speakH1696.
I have consideredH2803 the daysH3117 of oldH6924, the yearsH8141 of ancient timesH5769.
I call to remembranceH2142 my songH5058 in the nightH3915: I communeH7878 with mine own heartH3824: and my spiritH7307 made diligent searchH2664.
Will the LordH136 cast offH2186 for everH5769? and willH3254 he be favourableH7521 no more?
Is his mercyH2617 clean goneH656 for everH5331? doth his promiseH562 failH1584 for evermoreH1755+H1755? {for evermore: Heb. to generation and generation?}
Hath GodH410 forgottenH7911 to be graciousH2589? hath he in angerH639 shut upH7092 his tender merciesH7356? SelahH5542.
And I saidH559, This is my infirmityH2470: but I will remember the yearsH8141 of the right handH3225 of the most HighH5945.
I will rememberH2142+H2142 the worksH4611 of the LORDH3050: surely I will rememberH2142 thy wondersH6382 of oldH6924.
I will meditateH1897 also of all thy workH6467, and talkH7878 of thy doingsH5949.
For I am readyH3559 to haltH6761, and my sorrowH4341 is continuallyH8548 before me. {to halt: Heb. for halting}
Lest he tearH2963 my soulH5315 like a lionH738, rending it in piecesH6561, while there is none to deliverH5337. {none…: Heb. not a deliverer}
All they that seeH7200 me laugh me to scornH3932: they shoot outH6358 the lipH8193, they shakeH5128 the headH7218, saying, {shoot…: Heb. open}
The sorrowsH2256 of deathH4194 compassedH661 me, and the painsH4712 of hellH7585 gat holdH4672 upon me: I foundH4672 troubleH6869 and sorrowH3015. {gat…: Heb. found me}
If I have rewardedH1580 evilH7451 unto him that was at peaceH7999 with me; (yea, I have deliveredH2502 him that without causeH7387 is mine enemyH6887:)
He trustedH1556 on the LORDH3068 that he would deliverH6403 him: let him deliverH5337 him, seeing he delightedH2654 in him. {He trusted…: Heb. He rolled himself on} {seeing…: or, if he delight in}
In the multitudeH7230 of my thoughtsH8312 withinH7130 me thy comfortsH8575 delightH8173 my soulH5315.
Wherefore the kingH4428 saidH559 unto me, Why is thy countenanceH6440 sadH7451, seeing thou art not sickH2470? this is nothing else but sorrowH7455 of heartH3820. Then I was veryH3966 soreH7235 afraidH3372,
Let the enemyH341 persecuteH7291 my soulH5315, and takeH5381 it; yea, let him tread downH7429 my lifeH2416 upon the earthH776, and layH7931 mine honourH3519 in the dustH6083. SelahH5542.
Let the lyingH8267 lipsH8193 be put to silenceH481; which speakH1696 grievousH6277 things proudlyH1346 and contemptuouslyH937 against the righteousH6662. {grievous…: Heb. a hard thing}
I lookedH5027 on my right handH3225, and beheldH7200, but there was no man that would knowH5234 me: refugeH4498 failedH6 me; no man caredH1875 for my soulH5315. {I looked…: or, Look on the right hand, and see} {failed…: Heb. perished from me} {cared…: Heb. sought after}
I criedH2199 unto thee, O LORDH3068: I saidH559, Thou art my refugeH4268 and my portionH2506 in the landH776 of the livingH2416.
AttendH7181 unto my cryH7440; for I am broughtH1809 veryH3966 lowH1809: deliverH5337 me from my persecutorsH7291; for they are strongerH553 than I.
BringH3318 my soulH5315 out of prisonH4525, that I may praiseH3034 thy nameH8034: the righteousH6662 shall compass me aboutH3803; for thou shalt deal bountifullyH1580 with me.
A merryH8056 heartH3820 maketh a cheerfulH3190 countenanceH6440: but by sorrowH6094 of the heartH3820 the spiritH7307 is brokenH5218.
Out of the mouthH6310 of babesH5768 and sucklingsH3243 hast thou ordainedH3245 strengthH5797 because of thine enemiesH6887, that thou mightest stillH7673 the enemyH341 and the avengerH5358. {ordained: Heb. founded}
As with a swordH7524 in my bonesH6106, mine enemiesH6887 reproachH2778 me; while they sayH559 dailyH3117 unto me, Where is thy GodH430? {sword: or, killing}
Am I a seaH3220, or a whaleH8577, that thou settestH7760 a watchH4929 over me?
When I sayH559, My bedH6210 shall comfortH5162 me, my couchH4904 shall easeH5375 my complaintH7879;
Then thou scarestH2865 me with dreamsH2472, and terrifiestH1204 me through visionsH2384:
So that my soulH5315 choosethH977 stranglingH4267, and deathH4194 rather than my lifeH6106. {life: Heb. bones}
All his daysH3117 also he eatethH398 in darknessH2822, and he hath muchH7235 sorrowH3707 and wrathH7110 with his sicknessH2483.
O thou enemyH341, destructionsH2723 are come to a perpetualH5331 endH8552: and thou hast destroyedH5428 citiesH6145+H5892; their memorialH2143 is perishedH6 with themH1992. {O thou…: or, The destructions of the enemy are come to a perpetual end: and their cities hast thou destroyed, etc}
Thou makestH7760 us a bywordH4912 among the heathenH1471, a shakingH4493 of the headH7218 among the peopleH3816.
My confusionH3639 is continuallyH3117 before me, and the shameH1322 of my faceH6440 hath coveredH3680 me,
For the voiceH6963 of him that reproachethH2778 and blasphemethH1442; by reasonH6440 of the enemyH341 and avengerH5358.
If I speak of strengthH3581, lo, he is strongH533: and if of judgmentH4941, who shall setH3259 me a time to plead?
If I justifyH6663 myself, mine own mouthH6310 shall condemnH7561 me: if I say, I am perfectH8535, it shall also prove me perverseH6140.
Though I were perfectH8535, yet would I not knowH3045 my soulH5315: I would despiseH3988 my lifeH2416.
When I would comfortH4010 myself against sorrowH3015, my heartH3820 is faintH1742 in me. {in: Heb. upon}
To judgeH8199 the fatherlessH3490 and the oppressedH1790, that the manH582 of the earthH776 may no moreH3254 oppressH6206. {oppress: or, terrify}
Have mercyH2603 upon us, O LORDH3068, have mercyH2603 upon us: for we are exceedinglyH7227 filledH7646 with contemptH937.
If I sayH559, I will forgetH7911 my complaintH7879, I will leave offH5800 my heavinessH6440, and comfortH1082 myself:
Thou didst sayH559, WoeH188 is me now! for the LORDH3068 hath addedH3254 griefH3015 to my sorrowH4341; I faintedH3021 in my sighingH585, and I findH4672 no restH4496.
FromH6440 the wickedH7563 thatH2098 oppressH7703 me, from my deadlyH5315 enemiesH341, who compass me aboutH5362. {oppress: Heb. waste} {my…: Heb. my enemies against the soul}
Our soulH5315 is exceedinglyH7227 filledH7646 with the scorningH3933 of those that are at easeH7600, and with the contemptH937 of the proudH3238+H1343+H1349.
ThenG5119 saith heG3004 unto themG846, MyG3450 soulG5590 isG2076 exceeding sorrowfulG4036, even untoG2193 deathG2288: tarry yeG3306 hereG5602, andG2532 watchG1127 withG3326 meG1700.
O GodH430, how long shall the adversaryH6862 reproachH2778? shall the enemyH341 blasphemeH5006 thy nameH8034 for everH5331?
For the enemyH341 hath persecutedH7291 my soulH5315; he hath smittenH1792 my lifeH2416 downH1792 to the groundH776; he hath made me to dwellH3427 in darknessH4285, as those that have been longH5769 deadH4191.
If I be wickedH7561, woeH480 unto me; and if I be righteousH6663, yet will I not lift upH5375 my headH7218. I am fullH7649 of confusionH7036; therefore seeH7202+H7200 thou mine afflictionH6040;
ButG235 becauseG3754 I have saidG2980 these thingsG5023 unto youG5213, sorrowG3077 hath filledG4137 yourG5216 heartG2588.
RememberH2142 this, that the enemyH341 hath reproachedH2778, O LORDH3068, and that the foolishH5036 peopleH5971 have blasphemedH5006 thy nameH8034.
Therefore is my spiritH7307 overwhelmedH5848 within me; my heartH3820 withinH8432 me is desolateH8074.
Behold, I goH1980 forwardH6924, but he is not there; and backwardH268, but I cannot perceiveH995 him:
On the left handH8040, where he doth workH6213, but I cannot beholdH2372 him: he hidethH5848 himself on the right handH3225, that I cannot seeH7200 him:
But he knowethH3045 the wayH1870 that I takeH5978: when he hath triedH974 me, I shall come forthH3318 as goldH2091. {that…: Heb. that is with me}
ThatG3754 IG3427 haveG2076 greatG3173 heavinessG3077 andG2532 continualG88 sorrow inG3601 myG3450 heartG2588.
And SaulH7586 was yet the moreH3254 afraidH3372 ofH6440 DavidH1732; and SaulH7586 became David'sH1732 enemyH341 continuallyH3117.
Her adversariesH6862 are the chiefH7218, her enemiesH341 prosperH7951; for the LORDH3068 hath afflictedH3013 her for the multitudeH7230 of her transgressionsH6588: her childrenH5768 are goneH1980 into captivityH7628 beforeH6440 the enemyH6862.
Why is my painH3511 perpetualH5331, and my woundH4347 incurableH605, which refusethH3985 to be healedH7495? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liarH391, and as watersH4325 that failH539? {fail: Heb. be not sure?}
ForG1063 indeedG2532 he was sickG770 nighG3897 unto deathG2288: butG235 GodG2316 had mercyG1653 on himG846; andG1161 notG3756 on himG846 onlyG3440, butG235 on meG1691 alsoG2532, lestG3363 I should haveG2192 sorrowG3077 uponG1909 sorrowG3077.
For if a manH376 findH4672 his enemyH341, will he let him goH7971 wellH2896 awayH1870? wherefore the LORDH3068 rewardH7999 thee goodH2896 for that thou hast doneH6213 unto me this dayH3117.
WhenG5607 IG3450 wasG5607 dailyG2250+G2596 withG3326 youG5216 inG1722 the templeG2411, ye stretched forthG1614 noG3756 handsG5495 againstG1909 meG1691: butG235 thisG3778 isG2076 yourG5216 hourG5610, andG2532 the powerG1849 of darknessG4655.
And EstherH635 saidH559, The adversaryH376+H6862 and enemyH341 is this wickedH7451 HamanH2001. Then HamanH2001 was afraidH1204 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and the queenH4436. {The adversary: Heb. The man adversary} {before: or, at the presence of}
Her filthinessH2932 is in her skirtsH7757; she rememberethH2142 not her last endH319; therefore she came downH3381 wonderfullyH6382: she had no comforterH5162. O LORDH3068, beholdH7200 my afflictionH6040: for the enemyH341 hath magnifiedH1431 himself.
RejoiceH8055 not against me, O mine enemyH341: when I fallH5307, I shall ariseH6965; when I sitH3427 in darknessH2822, the LORDH3068 shall be a lightH216 unto me.
I will bearH5375 the indignationH2197 of the LORDH3068, because I have sinnedH2398 against him, until he pleadH7378 my causeH7379, and executeH6213 judgmentH4941 for me: he will bring me forthH3318 to the lightH216, and I shall beholdH7200 his righteousnessH6666.
Then she that is mine enemyH341 shall seeH7200 it, and shameH955 shall coverH3680 her which saidH559 unto me, Where is the LORDH3068 thy GodH430? mine eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200 her: now shall she be trodden downH4823 as the mireH2916 of the streetsH2351. {Then…: or, And thou wilt see her that is mine enemy, and cover her with shame} {shall she…: Heb. she shall be for a treading down}
