1For the conductor, a song of David. אלַֽ֜מְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד:

2The heavens recite the glory of God, and the sky tells of the work of His hands. בהַשָּׁמַ֗יִם מְסַפְּרִ֥ים כְּבוֹד־אֵ֑ל וּמַֽעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָ֜דָ֗יו מַגִּ֥יד הָֽרָקִֽיעַ:

3Day to day utters speech, and night to night tells knowledge. גי֣וֹם לְ֖יוֹם יַבִּ֣יעַ אֹ֑מֶר וְלַ֥יְלָה לְּ֜לַ֗יְלָה יְחַוֶּה־דָּֽעַת:

4There is neither speech nor words; their voice is not heard. דאֵ֣ין אֹ֖מֶר וְאֵ֣ין דְּבָרִ֑ים בְּ֜לִ֗י נִשְׁמָ֥ע קוֹלָֽם:

5Their line goes forth throughout the earth, and their words are at the end of the world; for the sun He made a tent therein. הבְּכָל־הָאָ֨רֶץ | יָצָ֚א קַוָּ֗ם וּבִקְצֵ֣ה תֵ֖בֵל מִלֵּיהֶ֑ם לַ֜שֶּׁ֗מֶשׁ שָׂ֤ם | אֹ֥הֶל בָּהֶֽם:

6And it is like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber; it rejoices like a mighty man running a course. ווְה֗וּא כְּ֖חָתָן יֹצֵ֣א מֵֽחֻפָּת֑וֹ יָשִׂ֥ישׂ כְּ֜גִבּ֗וֹר לָר֥וּץ אֹֽרַח:

7From the end of the heavens is its source, and its circuit is to their ends, and none is hidden from its heat. זמִקְצֵ֚ה הַשָּׁמַ֨יִם | מֽוֹצָא֗וֹ וּתְקֽוּפָת֥וֹ עַל־קְצוֹתָ֑ם וְאֵ֥ין נִ֜סְתָּ֗ר מֵֽחַמָּתֽוֹ:

8The law of YAHUAH is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the Yahuah is faithful, making the simple one wise. חתּ֘וֹרַ֚ת יְהֹוָ֣ה תְּ֖מִימָה מְשִׁ֣יבַת נָ֑פֶשׁ עֵד֖וּת יְהֹוָ֥ה נֶֽ֜אֱמָנָ֗ה מַחְכִּ֥ימַת פֶּֽתִי:

9The orders of YAHUAH are upright, causing the heart to rejoice; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes. טפִּקּ֘וּדֵ֚י יְהֹוָ֣ה יְ֖שָׁרִים מְשַׂמְּחֵי־לֵ֑ב מִצְוַ֖ת יְהֹוָ֥ה בָּ֜רָ֗ה מְאִירַ֥ת עֵינָֽיִם:

10The fear of the Yahuah is pure, existing forever; the judgments of Yahuah are true, altogether just. ייִרְאַ֚ת יְהֹוָ֨ה | טְהוֹרָה֘ עוֹמֶ֪דֶת לָ֫עַ֥ד מִשְׁפְּטֵֽי־יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱמֶ֑ת צָֽדְק֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו:

11They are to be desired more than gold, yea more than much fine gold, and are sweeter than honey and drippings of honeycombs. יאהַנֶּֽחֱמָדִ֗ים מִ֖זָּהָב וּמִפָּ֣ז רָ֑ב וּמְתוּקִ֥ים מִ֜דְּבַ֗שׁ וְנֹ֣פֶת צוּפִֽים:

12Also Your servant was careful with them; for in observing them there is great reward. יבגַּם־עַ֖בְדְּךָ נִזְהָ֣ר בָּהֶ֑ם בְּ֜שָׁמְרָ֗ם עֵ֣קֶב רָֽב:

13Who understands errors? Cleanse me of hidden [sins]. יגשְׁגִיא֥וֹת מִֽי־יָבִ֑ין מִנִּסְתָּר֥וֹת נַקֵּֽנִי:

14Also withhold Your servant from willful sins; let them not rule over me; then I will be perfect and I will be cleansed of much transgression. ידגַּ֚ם מִזֵּדִ֨ים | חֲשׂ֬ךְ עַבְדֶּ֗ךָ אַל־יִמְשְׁלוּ־בִ֖י אָ֥ז אֵיתָ֑ם וְ֜נִקֵּ֗יתִי מִפֶּ֥שַֽׁע רָֽב:

15May the sayings of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable before You, O Yahuah my Rock and my Redeemer. טויִֽהְי֥וּ לְרָצ֨וֹן | אִמְרֵי־פִ֡י וְהֶגְי֣וֹן לִבִּ֣י לְפָנֶ֑יךָ יְ֜הֹוָ֗ה צוּרִ֥י וְגֹֽאֲלִֽי:
