תנ"ך - מקרא על פי המסורה	NEW JERUSALEM
1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח מִזְמֹור	1 [For the choirmaster Of the sons of Korah Psalm] Yahweh, you are gracious to your land, you bringback the captives of Jacob,
2 רָצִיתָ יְהוָה אַרְצֶךָ בְתָּ [שְׁבוּת כ] (שְׁבִית ק) יַעֲקֹב	2 you take away the guilt of your people, you blot out al their sin.Pause
3 נָשָׂאתָ עֲוֹן עַמֶּךָ כִּסִּיתָ כָל־חַטָּאתָם סֶלָה	3 You retract al your anger, you renounce the heat of your fury.
4 אָסַפְתָּ כָל־עֶבְרָתֶךָ הֱשִׁיבֹותָ מֵחֲרֹון אַפֶּךָ	4 Bring us back, God our Saviour, appease your indignation against us!
5 וּבֵנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֵנוּ וְהָפֵר כַּעַסְךָ עִמָּנוּ	5 Wil you be angry with us for ever? Wil you prolong your wrath age after age?
6 הַלְעֹולָם תֶּאֱנַף־בָּנוּ תִּמְשֹׁךְ אַפְּךָ לְדֹר וָדֹר	6 Wil you not give us life again, for your people to rejoice in you?
7 הֲלֹא־אַתָּה תָּשׁוּב תְּחַיֵּנוּ וְעַמְּךָ יִשְׂמְחוּ־בָךְ	7 Show us, Lord, your faithful love, grant us your saving help.
8 הַרְאֵנוּ יְהוָה חַסְדֶּךָ וְיֶשְׁעֲךָ תִּתֶּן־לָנוּ	8 I am listening. What is God's message? Yahweh's message is peace for his people, for his faithful, ifonly they renounce their folly.
9 אֶשְׁמְעָה מַה־יְדַבֵּר הָאֵל ׀ יְהוָה כִּי ׀ יְדַבֵּר שָׁלֹום אֶל־עַמֹּו וְאֶל־חֲסִידָיו וְאַל־יָשׁוּבוּ לְכִסְלָה	9 His saving help is near for those who fear him, his glory wil dwel in our land.
10 אַךְ ׀ קָרֹוב לִירֵאָיו יִשְׁעֹו לִשְׁכֹּן כָּבֹוד בְּאַרְצֵנוּ	10 Faithful Love and Loyalty join together, Saving Justice and Peace embrace.
11 חֶסֶד־וֶאֱמֶת נִפְגָּשׁוּ צֶדֶק וְשָׁלֹום נָשָׁקוּ	11 Loyalty wil spring up from the earth, and Justice wil lean down from heaven.
12 אֱמֶת מֵאֶרֶץ תִּצְמָח וְצֶדֶק מִשָּׁמַיִם נִשְׁקָף	12 Yahweh will himself give prosperity, and our soil wil yield its harvest.
13 גַּם־יְהוָה יִתֵּן הַטֹּוב וְאַרְצֵנוּ תִּתֵּן יְבוּלָהּ	13 Justice will walk before him, treading out a path.
14 צֶדֶק לְפָנָיו יְהַלֵּךְ וְיָשֵׂם לְדֶרֶךְ פְּעָמָיו
