1למנצח לדוד מזמור אלהי תהלתי אל תחרש׃
1For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O God of my praise, keep not silence;
2כי פי רשע ופי מרמה עלי פתחו דברו אתי לשון שקר׃
2For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me; they have spoken unto me with a lying tongue.

4In return for my love they are my adversaries; but I am all prayer.
5וישימו עלי רעה תחת טובה ושנאה תחת אהבתי׃
5And they have laid upon me evil for good, and hatred for my love:

6'Set Thou a wicked man over him; and let an adversary stand at his right hand.

27וידעו כי ידך זאת אתה יהוה עשיתה׃
27That they may know that this is Thy hand; that Thou, LORD, hast done it.
