1“My soul loathes my life; I will give free course to my complaint, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.1נָֽקְטָ֥ה נַפְשִׁ֗י בְּחַ֫יָּ֥י אֶֽעֶזְבָ֣ה עָלַ֣י שִׂיחִ֑י אֲ֝דַבְּרָה֗ בְּמַ֣ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃
2I will say to God, ‘Do not condemn me; Show me why You contend with me.2אֹמַ֣ר אֶל־ אֱ֭לוֹהַּ אַל־ תַּרְשִׁיעֵ֑נִי הֽ֝וֹדִיעֵ֗נִי עַ֣ל מַה־ תְּרִיבֵֽנִי׃
3Does it seem good to You that You should oppress, That You should despise the work of Your hands, And smile on the counsel of the wicked?3הֲט֤וֹב לְךָ֨ ׀ כִּֽי־ תַעֲשֹׁ֗ק כִּֽי־ תִ֭מְאַס יְגִ֣יעַ כַּפֶּ֑יךָ וְעַל־ עֲצַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים הוֹפָֽעְתָּ׃
4Do You have eyes of flesh? Or do You see as man sees?4הַעֵינֵ֣י בָשָׂ֣ר לָ֑ךְ אִם־ כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ תִּרְאֶֽה׃
5Are Your days like the days of a mortal man? Are Your years like the days of a mighty man,5הֲכִימֵ֣י אֱנ֣וֹשׁ יָמֶ֑יךָ אִם־ שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר׃
6That You should seek for my iniquity And search out my sin,6כִּֽי־ תְבַקֵּ֥שׁ לַעֲוֺנִ֑י וּ֭לְחַטָּאתִ֥י תִדְרֽוֹשׁ׃
7Although You know that I am not wicked, And there is no one who can deliver from Your hand?7עַֽל־ דַּ֭עְתְּךָ כִּי־ לֹ֣א אֶרְשָׁ֑ע וְאֵ֖ין מִיָּדְךָ֣ מַצִּֽיל׃
8‘Your hands have made me and fashioned me, An intricate unity; Yet You would destroy me.8יָדֶ֣יךָ עִ֭צְּבוּנִי וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֑וּנִי יַ֥חַד סָ֝בִ֗יב וַֽתְּבַלְּעֵֽנִי׃
9Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay. And will You turn me into dust again?9זְכָר־ נָ֭א כִּי־ כַחֹ֣מֶר עֲשִׂיתָ֑נִי וְֽאֶל־ עָפָ֥ר תְּשִׁיבֵֽנִי׃
10Did You not pour me out like milk, And curdle me like cheese,10הֲלֹ֣א כֶ֭חָלָב תַּתִּיכֵ֑נִי וְ֝כַגְּבִנָּ֗ה תַּקְפִּיאֵֽנִי׃
11Clothe me with skin and flesh, And knit me together with bones and sinews?11ע֣וֹר וּ֭בָשָׂר תַּלְבִּישֵׁ֑נִי וּֽבַעֲצָמ֥וֹת וְ֝גִידִ֗ים תְּסֹכְכֵֽנִי׃
12You have granted me life and favor, And Your care has preserved my spirit.12חַיִּ֣ים וָ֭חֶסֶד עָשִׂ֣יתָ עִמָּדִ֑י וּ֝פְקֻדָּתְךָ֗ שָֽׁמְרָ֥ה רוּחִֽי׃
13‘And these things You have hidden in Your heart; I know that this was with You:13וְ֭אֵלֶּה צָפַ֣נְתָּ בִלְבָבֶ֑ךָ יָ֝דַ֗עְתִּי כִּי־ זֹ֥את עִמָּֽךְ׃
14If I sin, then You mark me, And will not acquit me of my iniquity.14אִם־ חָטָ֥אתִי וּשְׁמַרְתָּ֑נִי וּ֝מֵעֲוֺנִ֗י לֹ֣א תְנַקֵּֽנִי׃
15If I am wicked, woe to me; Even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head. I am full of disgrace; See my misery!15אִם־ רָשַׁ֡עְתִּי אַלְלַ֬י לִ֗י וְ֭צָדַקְתִּי לֹא־ אֶשָּׂ֣א רֹאשִׁ֑י שְׂבַ֥ע קָ֝ל֗וֹן וּרְאֵ֥ה עָנְיִֽי׃
16If my head is exalted, You hunt me like a fierce lion, And again You show Yourself awesome against me.16וְ֭יִגְאֶה כַּשַּׁ֣חַל תְּצוּדֵ֑נִי וְ֝תָשֹׁ֗ב תִּתְפַּלָּא־ בִֽי׃
17You renew Your witnesses against me, And increase Your indignation toward me; Changes and war are ever with me.17תְּחַדֵּ֬שׁ עֵדֶ֨יךָ ׀ נֶגְדִּ֗י וְתֶ֣רֶב כַּֽ֭עַשְׂךָ עִמָּדִ֑י חֲלִיפ֖וֹת וְצָבָ֣א עִמִּֽי׃
18‘Why then have You brought me out of the womb? Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!18וְלָ֣מָּה מֵ֭רֶחֶם הֹצֵאתָ֑נִי אֶ֝גְוַ֗ע וְעַ֣יִן לֹא־ תִרְאֵֽנִי׃
19I would have been as though I had not been. I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.19כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־ הָיִ֣יתִי אֶהְיֶ֑ה מִ֝בֶּ֗טֶן לַקֶּ֥בֶר אוּבָֽל׃
20Are not my days few? Cease! Leave me alone, that I may take a little comfort,20הֲלֹא־ מְעַ֣ט יָמַ֣י [יחדל] (וַחֲדָ֑ל) [ישית] (וְשִׁ֥ית) מִ֝מֶּ֗נִּי וְאַבְלִ֥יגָה מְּעָֽט׃
21Before I go to the place from which I shall not return, To the land of darkness and the shadow of death,21בְּטֶ֣רֶם אֵ֭לֵךְ וְלֹ֣א אָשׁ֑וּב אֶל־ אֶ֖רֶץ חֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָֽוֶת׃
22A land as dark as darkness itself, As the shadow of death, without any order, Where even the light is like darkness.’ ”22אֶ֤רֶץ עֵיפָ֨תָה ׀ כְּמ֥וֹ אֹ֗פֶל צַ֭לְמָוֶת וְלֹ֥א סְדָרִ֗ים וַתֹּ֥פַע כְּמוֹ־ אֹֽפֶל׃ פ
