Isaiah (ישעיה) - Isaia 38

STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	NEW JERUSALEM
1 מִזְמֹור לְדָוִד לְהַזְכִּיר	1 [Psalm Of David In commemoration] Yahweh, do not correct me in anger, do not discipline me inwrath.
2 יְהוָה אַל־בְּקֶצְפְּךָ תֹוכִיחֵנִי וּבַחֲמָתְךָ תְיַסְּרֵנִי	2 For your arrows have pierced deep into me, your hand has pressed down upon me.
3 כִּי־חִצֶּיךָ נִחֲתוּ בִי וַתִּנְחַת עָלַי יָדֶךָ	3 Your indignation has left no part of me unscathed, my sin has left no health in my bones.
4 אֵין־מְתֹם בִּבְשָׂרִי מִפְּנֵי זַעְמֶךָ אֵין־שָׁלֹום בַּעֲצָמַי מִפְּנֵי חַטָּאתִי	4 My sins stand higher than my head, they weigh on me as an unbearable weight.
5 כִּי עֲוֹנֹתַי עָבְרוּ רֹאשִׁי כְּמַשָּׂא כָבֵד יִכְבְּדוּ מִמֶּנִּי	5 I have stinking, festering wounds, thanks to my fol y.
6 הִבְאִישׁוּ נָמַקּוּ חַבּוּרֹתָי מִפְּנֵי אִוַּלְתִּי	6 I am twisted and bent double, I spend my days in gloom.
7 נַעֲוֵיתִי שַׁחֹתִי עַד־מְאֹד כָּל־הַיֹּום קֹדֵר הִלָּכְתִּי	7 My loins burn with fever, no part of me is unscathed.
8 כִּי־כְסָלַי מָלְאוּ נִקְלֶה וְאֵין מְתֹם בִּבְשָׂרִי	8 Numbed and utterly crushed I groan in distress of heart.
9 נְפוּגֹותִי וְנִדְכֵּיתִי עַד־מְאֹד אַגְתִּי מִנַּהֲמַת לִבִּי	9 Lord, all my longing is known to you, my sighing no secret from you,
10 אֲ‍דֹנָי נֶגְדְּךָ כָל־תַּאֲוָתִי וְאַנְחָתִי מִמְּךָ לֹא־נִסְתָּרָה	10 my heart is throbbing, my strength has failed, the light has gone out of my eyes.
11 לִבִּי סְחַרְחַר עֲזָבַנִי כֹחִי וְאֹור־עֵינַי גַּם־הֵם אֵין אִתִּי	11 Friends and companions shun my disease, even the dearest of them keep their distance.
12 אֹהֲבַי ׀ וְרֵעַי מִנֶּגֶד נִגְעִי יַעֲמֹדוּ וּקְרֹובַי מֵרָחֹק עָמָדוּ	12 Those with designs on my life lay snares, those who wish me ill speak of violence and hatchtreachery all day long.
13 וַיְנַקְשׁוּ ׀ מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשִׁי וְדֹרְשֵׁי רָעָתִי דִּבְּרוּ הַוֹּות וּמִרְמֹות כָּל־הַיֹּום יֶהְגּוּ	13 But I hear nothing, as though I were deaf, as though dumb, saying not a word.
14 וַאֲנִי כְחֵרֵשׁ לֹא אֶשְׁמָע וּכְאִלֵּם לֹא יִפְתַּח־פִּיו	14 I am like the one who, hearing nothing, has no sharp answer to make.
15 וָאֱהִי כְּאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר לֹא־שֹׁמֵעַ וְאֵין בְּפִיו תֹּוכָחֹות	15 For in you, Yahweh, I put my hope, you, Lord my God, wil give answer.
16 כִּי־לְךָ יְהוָה הֹוחָלְתִּי אַתָּה תַעֲנֶה אֲדֹנָי אֱלֹהָי	16 I said, 'Never let them gloat over me, do not let them take advantage of me if my foot slips.'
17 כִּי־אָמַרְתִּי פֶּן־יִשְׂמְחוּ־לִי בְּמֹוט רַגְלִי עָלַי הִגְדִּילוּ	17 There is no escape for me from fal ing, no relief from my misery.
18 כִּי־אֲנִי לְצֶלַע נָכֹון וּמַכְאֹובִי נֶגְדִּי תָמִיד	18 But I make no secret of my guilt, I am anxious at the thought of my sin.
19 כִּי־עֲוֹנִי אַגִּיד אֶדְאַג מֵחַטָּאתִי	19 There is no numbering those who oppose me without cause, no counting those who hate meunprovoked,
20 וְאֹיְבַי חַיִּים עָצֵמוּ וְרַבּוּ שֹׂנְאַי שָׁקֶר	20 repaying me evil for good, slandering me for trying to do them good.
21 וּמְשַׁלְּמֵי רָעָה תַּחַת טֹובָה יִשְׂטְנוּנִי תַּחַת [רְדֹופִי־ כ] (רָדְפִי־טֹוב׃ ק)	21 Yahweh, do not desert me, my God, do not stand aloof from me.
22 אַל־תַּעַזְבֵנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי אַל־תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי	22 Come quickly to my help, Lord, my Saviour!
23 חוּשָׁה לְעֶזְרָתִי אֲדֹנָי תְּשׁוּעָתִי
