Psalm 13 "How Long, Adonai?" Sung by Cantor Shoshana Brown

Описание: “How Long, Adonai?”
(Text of Psalm as sung without repeats)

Ad ana, Adonai, tishkacheini netzach;
Ad ana tastir panekha mimeini?
Ad ana ashit eitztot b’nafshi,
Yagon bilvavi yomam,
Ad ana yarum oyvi alai?
Habita aneini Adonai Elohai,
Ha’ira einai—pen ashit hamavet.
Pen yomar oyvi y’chaltiv;
Tzarai yagilu ki emot.
How long, Adonai—will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
How long will these things roil my mind,
This grief dwell in my heart?
How long will you give my enemy power over me?
Look at me, and answer me, Adonai my God—
Restore the light to my eyes—lest I close them in death…

Va’ani b’chasdekha vatachti;
Yagel libi bishuatekha;
And yet I will trust in your faithful love,
My heart will rejoice in your salvation.
Ashira l’Adonai—ki gamal alai!
[I will sing to Adonai—for God is good to me!]
