11The cuckoo calls but has not laid, so it is he who gathers riches but not by right; he shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end he stands dishonored. | יאקֹרֵ֚א דָגָר֙ וְלֹ֣א יָלָ֔ד עֹ֥שֶׂה עֹ֖שֶׁר וְלֹ֣א בְמִשְׁפָּ֑ט בַּֽחֲצִ֚י יָמָיו֙ (כתיב יָמָו֙) יַעַזְבֶ֔נּוּ וּבְאַֽחֲרִית֖וֹ יִֽהְיֶ֥ה נָבָֽל: |
1For the conductor, a song of the sons of Korah, on alamoth. | אלַמְנַצֵּחַ לִבְנֵי קֹרַח עַל עֲלָמוֹת שִׁיר: | |
2God is for us a shelter and a strength, a help in troubles; He is very accessible. | באֱלֹהִים לָנוּ מַחֲסֶה וָעֹז עֶזְרָה בְצָרוֹת נִמְצָא מְאֹד: | |
3Therefore we will not fear when the earth changes and when mountains totter into the heart of seas. | געַל כֵּן לֹא נִירָא בְּהָמִיר אָרֶץ וּבְמוֹט הָרִים בְּלֵב יַמִּים: | |
4His waters shall stir and be muddied; mountains shall quake from His pride forever. | דיֶהֱמוּ יֶחְמְרוּ מֵימָיו יִרְעֲשׁוּ הָרִים בְּגַאֲוָתוֹ סֶלָה: | |
5But as for the river-its rivulets shall cause the city of God, the holy place of the dwellings of the Most High, to rejoice. | הנָהָר פְּלָגָיו יְשַׂמְּחוּ עִיר אֱלֹהִים קְדֹשׁ מִשְׁכְּנֵי עֶלְיוֹן: | |
6God is in its midst that it should not totter; God shall help it as morning approaches. | ואֱלֹהִים בְּקִרְבָּהּ בַּל תִּמּוֹט יַעְזְּרֶהָ אֱלֹהִים לִפְנוֹת בֹּקֶר: | |
7Nations have stirred, kingdoms have tottered; He let out His voice, the earth shall melt. | זהָמוּ גוֹיִם מָטוּ מַמְלָכוֹת נָתַן בְּקוֹלוֹ תָּמוּג אָרֶץ: | |
8The Lord of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress forever. | חיְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עִמָּנוּ מִשְׂגַּב לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶלָה: | |
9Go and see the works of the Lord, that He has wrought devastation in the earth. | טלְכוּ חֲזוּ מִפְעֲלוֹת יְהֹוָה אֲשֶׁר שָׂם שַׁמּוֹת בָּאָרֶץ: | |
10He puts a stop to wars until the end of the earth; He will break the bow and cut the spear [to pieces]; wagons He will burn with fire. | ימַשְׁבִּית מִלְחָמוֹת עַד קְצֵה הָאָרֶץ קֶשֶׁת יְשַׁבֵּר וְקִצֵּץ חֲנִית עֲגָלוֹת יִשְׂרֹף בָּאֵשׁ: | |
11Desist, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted upon the earth. | יאהַרְפּוּ וּדְעוּ כִּי אָנֹכִי אֱלֹהִים אָרוּם בַּגּוֹיִם אָרוּם בָּאָרֶץ: | |
12The Lord of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress forever. | יביְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עִמָּנוּ מִשְׂגַּב לָֹנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶלָה: |
