That You should seek ^H1245 for my guilt ^H5771

And search ^H1875 after my sin ^H2403?

O sons ^H1121 of men ^H376, how ^H4100 long ^H5704 will my glory ^H3519 become a reproach ^H3639?

How long will you love ^H157 what ^H7385 is ^H7385 worthless ^H7385 and seek ^H1245 falsehood ^H3577? [fn]Selah ^H5542.

[fn]This ^H2088 is the generation ^H1755 of those who seek ^H1875 Him,

Who seek ^H1245 Your face ^H6440—pay heed O Jacob ^H3290. [fn]Selah ^H5542.

One ^H259 thing ^H259 I have asked ^H7592 from Yahweh ^H3068, that I shall seek ^H1245:

That I may dwell ^H3427 in the house ^H1004 of Yahweh ^H3068 all ^H3605 the days ^H3117 of my life ^H2416,

To behold ^H2372 the [fn]beauty ^H5278 of Yahweh ^H3068

And to inquire ^H1239 in His temple ^H1964.

On Your behalf my heart ^H3820 says ^H559, “Seek ^H1245 My face ^H6440,”

“Your face ^H6440, O Yahweh ^H3068, I shall seek ^H1245.”

Samekh

Depart ^H5493 from evil ^H7451 and do ^H6213 good ^H2896;

Seek ^H1245 peace ^H7965 and pursue ^H7291 it.

Let those be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 and dishonored ^H3637 who seek ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315;

Let those who devise ^H2803 evil ^H7451 against me be turned ^H5472 back ^H268 and humiliated ^H2659.

Nun

I was ^H1961 young ^H5288 and now ^H1571 I am ^H2204 old ^H2204,

Yet I have not seen ^H7200 the righteous ^H6662 forsaken ^H5800

Or his seed ^H2233 begging ^H1245 bread ^H3899.

Tsadhe

The wicked ^H7563 spies ^H6822 upon the righteous ^H6662

And seeks ^H1245 to put him to death ^H4191.

Then [fn]he passed ^H5674 away ^H5674, and behold ^H2009, he was no ^H369 more ^H369;

I sought ^H1245 for him, but he could not be found ^H4672.

Those who search ^H1245 for my life ^H5315 lay ^H5367 snares ^H5367 for me;

And those who seek ^H1875 [fn]to do me evil ^H7451 have [fn]threatened ^H1696 destruction ^H1942,

And they meditate ^H1897 on deception ^H4820 all ^H3605 day ^H3117 long.

Let those be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 and humiliated ^H2659 together ^H3162

Who seek ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315 to sweep ^H5595 it away ^H5595;

Let those be turned ^H5472 back ^H268 and dishonored ^H3637

Who ^H2655 delight ^H2655 in [fn]evil ^H7451 against me ^H7451.

Let all ^H3605 who seek ^H1245 You rejoice ^H7797 and be ^H8055 glad ^H8055 in You;

Let those who love ^H157 Your salvation ^H8668 say ^H559 continually ^H8548,

“Yahweh ^H3068 be magnified ^H1431!”

For strangers ^H2114 have risen ^H6965 against ^H5921 me

And ruthless ^H6184 men ^H6184 have sought ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315;

They have not set ^H7760 God ^H430 before ^H5048 them. [fn]Selah ^H5542.

But those ^H1992 who seek ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315 to destroy ^H7722 it,

Will go ^H935 into the [fn]depths ^H8482 of the earth ^H776.

May those who hope ^H6960 for You not be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 through me, O Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635;

May those who seek ^H1245 You not be dishonored ^H3637 through me, O God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478,

Let those be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 and humiliated ^H2659

Who seek ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315;

Let those be turned ^H5472 back ^H268 and dishonored ^H3637

Who delight ^H2655 in [fn]evil ^H7451 against me ^H7451.

Let those be joyful ^H7797 and glad ^H8055 in You

All ^H3605 who seek ^H1245 You

And let them say ^H559 continually ^H8548,

“Let God ^H430 be magnified ^H1431,”

Those who love ^H157 Your salvation ^H3444.

Let those who accuse ^H7853 my soul ^H5315 be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 and consumed ^H3615;

Let them be wrapped ^H5844 up ^H5844 with reproach ^H2781 and dishonor ^H3639, who seek ^H1245 [fn]to do me evil ^H7451.

My tongue ^H3956 also ^H1571 will utter ^H1897 Your righteousness ^H6666 all ^H3605 day ^H3117 long;

For they are ^H954 ashamed ^H954, for they are humiliated ^H2659 who seek ^H1245 [fn]to do me evil ^H7451.

Fill ^H4390 their faces ^H6440 with disgrace ^H7036,

That they may seek ^H1245 Your name ^H8034, O Yahweh ^H3068.

O God ^H430, arrogant ^H2086 men ^H2086 have risen ^H6965 up ^H6965 against ^H5921 me,

And [fn]a band ^H5712 of ruthless ^H6184 men ^H6184 have sought ^H1245 my [fn]life ^H5315,

And they have not set ^H7760 You before ^H5048 them.

The young ^H3715 lions ^H3715 roar ^H7580 to go after their prey ^H2964

And to seek ^H1245 their food ^H400 from God ^H410.

Boast ^H1984 in His holy ^H6944 name ^H8034;

Let the heart ^H3820 of those who seek ^H1245 Yahweh ^H3068 be ^H8055 glad ^H8055.

I have wandered ^H8582 off ^H8582 like a lost ^H6 sheep ^H7716; search ^H1245 for Your slave ^H5650,

For I have not forgotten ^H7911 Your commandments ^H4687.

For the sake ^H4616 of the house ^H1004 of Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430,

I will seek ^H1245 your good ^H2896.

If ^H518 you seek ^H1245 her as silver ^H3701

And search ^H2664 for her as for hidden ^H4301 treasures ^H4301;

He who earnestly ^H7836 seeks ^H7836 good ^H2896 seeks ^H1245 favor ^H7522,

But he who searches ^H1875 for evil ^H7451, evil will come ^H935 to him.

A scoffer ^H3887 seeks ^H1245 wisdom ^H2451 and finds none ^H369,

But knowledge ^H1847 is ^H7043 easy ^H7043 to one who has ^H995 understanding ^H995.

The heart ^H3820 of the one who has understanding ^H995 seeks ^H1245 knowledge ^H1847,

But the mouth ^H6310 of fools ^H3684 feeds ^H7462 on folly ^H200.

He who covers ^H3680 a transgression ^H6588 seeks ^H1245 love ^H160,

But he who repeats ^H8138 a matter ^H1697 separates ^H6504 close ^H441 companions ^H441.

A rebellious ^H4805 man ^H4805 seeks ^H1245 only ^H389 evil ^H7451,

So a cruel ^H394 messenger ^H4397 will be sent ^H7971 against him.

He who loves ^H157 transgression ^H6588 loves ^H157 quarreling ^H4683;

He who makes ^H1361 his doorway ^H6607 high ^H1361 seeks ^H1245 destruction ^H7667.

He who separates ^H6504 himself seeks ^H1245 his own desire ^H8378,

He breaks ^H1566 out ^H1566 in dispute against all ^H3605 sound ^H8454 wisdom ^H8454.

The heart ^H3820 of the understanding ^H995 acquires ^H7069 knowledge ^H1847,

And the ear ^H241 of the wise ^H2450 seeks ^H1245 knowledge ^H1847.

Working ^H6466 for treasures ^H214 by a lying ^H8267 tongue ^H3956

Is a fleeting ^H5086 breath ^H1892, by those who pursue ^H1245 death ^H4194.

“They struck ^H5221 me, but I did not become ^H2470 [fn]ill ^H2470;

They beat ^H1986 me, but I did not know ^H3045 it.

When ^H4970 shall I awake ^H6974?

I will seek ^H1245 yet ^H5750 another ^H3254.”

Evil ^H7451 men ^H376 do not understand ^H995 justice ^H4941,

But those who seek ^H1245 Yahweh ^H3068 understand ^H995 all ^H3605 things ^H3605.

Men ^H376 of bloodshed ^H1818 hate ^H8130 the blameless ^H8535,

But the upright ^H3477 seek ^H1245 the well-being of his soul ^H5315.

Many ^H7227 seek ^H1245 the face ^H6440 of a ruler ^H4910,

But justice ^H4941 for man ^H376 comes from Yahweh ^H3068.

A time ^H6256 to search ^H1245 and a time ^H6256 to lose ^H6;

A time ^H6256 to keep ^H8104 and a time ^H6256 to throw ^H7993 away ^H7993.
