1 Yashai (salvation) me, Alahayam (), for the mayam (Waters) bawaa (come) come up to my neck!
2 I tabai (sink) in matzawalah (deep) yawan (mire), where there is no foothold. I bawaa (bring) come into maimaq (deep) mayam (Waters), where the shabal (floods) shatap (overflow) me.
3 I am yagai (weary) with my qaraa (called). My garawan (throat) is charar (dry). My iyan (eye) kalah (complete / finish), looking for my Alahayam ().
4 Those who shanaa (hate) me chanam (without) a cause are more than the shairawath (hairs) of my raash (head). Those who want to tzamath (cut) me off, being my ayab (enemy) shaqar (wrongfully), are itzam (mighty). I have to shawab (turn) what I didn't gazal (take) away.
5 Alahayam (), you yadai (know) my awalath (foolishness). My ashamah (sins) aren't kachad (hidden) from you.
6 Don't let those who qawah (gather/wait) for you be bawash (shamed) through me, Adanay () Yahawah () of tzabaawath (armies). Don't let those who baqash (seek) you be brought to dishonor through me, Alahayam () of Yashar-Al (Israel).
7 Because for your sake, I have nashaa (lift) charapah (reproach). Kalamah (shame) has kasah (covered) my panayam (face).
8 I have become a stranger to my ach (brother/kinsman), an nakaray (alien) to my am (mother) banay (my son).
9 For the qanaah (zeal) of your bayath (house) akal (eat) me. The reproaches of those who charap (reproach) you napal (fall / be cast down) fallen on me.
10 When I bakah (wept) and I tzawam (fasted), that was to my charapah (reproach).
11 When I nathan (give) sackcloth my labawash (clothing), I became a mashal (byword) to them.
12 Those who yashab (inhabit/dwell) in the shair (gate) shayach (meditate) about me. I am the nagayanah (song) of the drunkards.
13 But as for me, my thapalah (prayer) is to you, Yahawah (), in an ratzawan (acceptable) ith (time). Alahayam (), in the rab (abundance) of your loving chasad (grace), inah (answer / respond) me in the amath (truth) of your yashai (salvation).
14 Natzal (deliver) me out of the tayat (mire), and don't let me tabai (sink). Let me be natzal (delivered) from those who shanaa (hate) me, and out of the maimaq (deep) mayam (Waters).
15 Don't let the mayam (Waters) waters shatap (overwhelm) me, neither let the matzawalah (deep) balai (swallow) me up. Don't let the baar (pit) atar (shut) its pah (mouth) on me.
16 Inah (answer / respond) me, Yahawah (), for your loving chasad (grace) is tawab (good / proper function). According to the rab (multitude) of your tender racham (show mercy / love), panah (turn) to me.
17 Don't sathar (hide) your panayam (face) from your ibad (servant), for I am in tzarar (distress). Inah (answer / respond) me mahar (speedily)!
18 Qarab (come close) near to my napash (soul), and gaal (redeem) it. Padah (ransom) me because of my ayab (enemy).
19 You yadai (know) my charapah (reproach), my charapah (shame), and my dishonor. My tzarar (adversaries) are all before you.
20 Charapah (reproach) has shabar (broken) my lab (heart), and I am nawash (full) of heaviness. I qawah (gather/wait) for some to nawad (take) pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I matzaa (found) none.
21 They also nathan (give) me raash (head) for my food. In my tzamaa (thirst), they gave me chamatz (vinegar) to shaqah (drink).
22 Let their shalachan (table) panayam (face) them become a pach (snare / trap). May it become a retribution and a mawaqash (trap).
23 Let their iyan (eye) be chashak (darkness), so that they can't raah (see / saw). Let their backs be continually bent.
24 Shapak (pour) out your zaim (indignation) on them. Let the charawan (fierceness) of your ap (nostril / picture: bull snorting) nashag (overtake) them.
25 Let their tayarah (habitation) be shamam (desolate). Let no one yashab (inhabit/dwell) in their ahal (tents).
26 For they radap (persecute) him whom you have wounded. They sapar (book) of the makaab (sorrow) of those whom you have hurt.
27 Nathan (give) them with crime upon crime. Don't bawaa (bring) them come into your tzadaqah (righteousness).
28 Let them be machah (blotted) out of the sapar (book / scribed document) of chay (life), and not be kathab (write) with the tzadayaq (righteous).
29 But I am in pain and distress. Let your yashawaih (salvation), Alahayam (), protect me.
30 I will halal (praise) the sham (name) of Alahayam () with a shayar (song), and will gadal (magnify) him with thanksgiving.
31 It will yatab (please) Yahawah () yatab (better) than an shawar (ox), or a shawar (bull) that has qaran (horns) and paras (hoofs).
32 The inaw (humble) raah (see) seen it, and are shamach (glad). You who darash (seek) after Alahayam (), let your labab (heart) chayah (live).
33 For Yahawah () shamai (hearken / hear) the abayawan (needy), and doesn't bazah (despise) his captive asayar (people).
34 Let shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens) and aratz (Earth/land) halal (praise) him; the yamayam (seas), and everything that ramash (moves) therein!
35 For Alahayam () will yashai (salvation) Tzayawan (Zion), and banah (build) the iray (cities) of Yahawadah (Judah). They shall settle there, and own it.
36 The zarai (children) also of his ibad (servant) shall nachal (inherit) it. Those who ahab (love) his sham (name) shall shakan (place) therein.
