“As a slave ^H5650 pants ^H7602 for the shade ^H6738,

And as a hired ^H7916 worker ^H7916 who eagerly ^H6960 waits ^H6960 for his wages ^H6467,

“For we are only of yesterday ^H8543 and know ^H3045 nothing ^H3808,

Because ^H3588 our days ^H3117 on earth ^H776 are as a shadow ^H6738.

“Like a flower ^H6731 he comes ^H3318 out ^H3318 and withers ^H4448.

He also flees ^H1272 like a shadow ^H6738 and does not remain ^H5975.

“My eye ^H5869 has also become ^H3543 inexpressive ^H3543 because ^H4480 of grief ^H3708,

And all ^H3605 my body ^H3338 parts ^H3338 are like a shadow ^H6738.

Keep ^H8104 me as [fn]the apple ^H380 of the eye ^H5869;

Hide ^H5641 me in the shadow ^H6738 of Your wings ^H3671

How ^H4100 precious ^H3368 is Your mercy ^H2617, God ^H430!

And the sons ^H1121 of mankind ^H120 take ^H2620 refuge ^H2620 in the shadow ^H6738 of Your wings ^H3671.

For the music director; set to [fn]Al-tashheth. A [fn]Mikhtam of David, [fn]when he fled from Saul in the cave.

Be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to me, God ^H430, be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to me,

For my soul ^H5315 takes ^H2620 refuge ^H2620 in You;

And in the shadow ^H6738 of Your wings ^H3671 I will take ^H2620 refuge ^H2620

Until ^H5704 destruction ^H1942 passes ^H5674 by ^H5674.

For You have been ^H1961 my help ^H5833,

And in the shadow ^H6738 of Your wings ^H3671 I sing ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442.

The mountains ^H2022 were covered ^H3680 with its shadow ^H6738,

And [fn]the cedars ^H730 of God ^H410 with its branches ^H6057.

One who dwells ^H3427 in the shelter ^H5643 of the Most ^H5945 High ^H5945

Will lodge ^H3885 in the shadow ^H6738 of the Almighty ^H7706.

My days ^H3117 are like a [fn]lengthened ^H5186 shadow ^H6738,

And [fn]I wither ^H3001 away like [fn]grass ^H6212.

I am passing ^H1980 like a shadow ^H6738 when it lengthens ^H5186;

I am shaken ^H5287 off ^H5287 like the locust ^H697.

The LORD ^H3068 is your [fn]protector ^H8104;

The LORD ^H3068 is your shade ^H6738 on your right ^H3225 hand ^H3027.

Man ^H120 is ^H1819 like ^H1819 the breath ^H1892;

His days ^H3117 are like a passing ^H5674 shadow ^H6738.

For wisdom ^H2451 is [fn]protection ^H6738 just as money ^H3701 is [fn]protection ^H6738,

But the advantage ^H3504 of knowledge ^H1847 is that wisdom ^H2451 keeps ^H2421 its possessors ^H1167 alive ^H2421.

The Bride

“Like an apple ^H8598 tree ^H8598 among the trees ^H6086 of the forest ^H3293,

So ^H3651 is my beloved ^H1730 among ^H996 the [fn]young ^H1121 men ^H1121.

In his shade ^H6738 I took ^H2530 great delight ^H2530 and sat ^H3427 down ^H3427,

And his fruit ^H6529 was sweet ^H4966 to my [fn]taste ^H2441.

“[fn]Give ^H935 us advice ^H6098, make ^H6213 a decision ^H6415;

[fn]Cast ^H7896 your shadow ^H6738 like night ^H3915 [fn]at high ^H8432 noon ^H6672;

Hide ^H5641 the outcasts ^H5080, do not betray ^H1540 the fugitive ^H5074.

For You have been ^H1961 a stronghold ^H4581 for the helpless ^H1800,

A stronghold ^H4581 for the poor ^H34 in his distress ^H6862,

A refuge ^H4268 from the storm ^H2230, a shade ^H6738 from the heat ^H2721;

For the breath ^H7307 of the ruthless ^H6184

Is like a rain storm ^H2230 against a wall ^H7023.

Who proceed ^H1980 down ^H3381 to Egypt ^H4714

Without ^H3808 consulting ^H7592 [fn]Me,

To take ^H5756 refuge ^H5756 in the safety ^H4581 of Pharaoh ^H6547,

And to seek ^H2620 shelter ^H2620 in the shadow ^H6738 of Egypt ^H4714!

Each ^H376 will be like a refuge ^H4224 from the wind ^H7307

And a shelter ^H5643 from the storm ^H2230,

Like [fn]streams ^H6388 of water ^H4325 in a dry ^H6724 country ^H6724,

Like the shade ^H6738 of a [fn]huge ^H3515 rock ^H5553 in an exhausted ^H5889 land ^H776.

The tree ^H7091 snake ^H7091 will make ^H7077 its nest ^H7077 and lay ^H4422 eggs there ^H8033,

And it will hatch ^H1234 and gather ^H1716 them under its [fn]protection ^H6738.

Yes ^H389, the [fn]hawks ^H1772 will be gathered ^H6908 there ^H8033,

Every ^H802 one ^H376 with its kind ^H7468.

He has made ^H7760 My mouth ^H6310 like a sharp ^H2299 sword ^H2719,

In the shadow ^H6738 of His hand ^H3027 He has concealed ^H2244 Me;

And He has also made ^H7760 Me a sharpened ^H1305 arrow ^H2671,

He has hidden ^H5641 Me in His quiver ^H827.

“In the shadow ^H6738 of Heshbon ^H2809

The fugitives ^H5127 stand ^H5975 without ^H4480 strength ^H3581;

For a fire ^H784 has spread ^H3318 out ^H3318 from Heshbon ^H2809

And a flame ^H3852 from the midst ^H996 of Sihon ^H5511,

And it has devoured ^H398 the forehead ^H6285 of Moab ^H4124

And the scalps ^H6936 of the [fn]loud ^H7588 revelers ^H1121.

The breath ^H7307 of our nostrils ^H639, the LORD’S ^H3068 anointed ^H4899,

Was captured ^H3920 in their pits ^H7825,

Of whom ^H834 we had said ^H559, “[fn]In his shadow ^H6738

We shall live ^H2421 among the nations ^H1471.”

‘All ^H3605 the birds ^H5775 of the sky ^H8064 nested ^H7077 in its twigs ^H5589,

And under ^H8478 its branches ^H6288 all ^H3605 the animals ^H2416 of the field ^H7704 gave ^H3205 birth ^H3205,

And all ^H3605 great ^H7227 nations ^H1471 lived ^H3427 under its shade ^H6738.

They offer ^H2076 sacrifices ^H2076 on the tops ^H7218 of the mountains ^H2022

And [fn]burn ^H6999 incense ^H6999 on the hills ^H1389,

Under ^H8478 oak ^H437, poplar ^H3839, and terebinth ^H424,

Because ^H3588 their shade ^H6738 is pleasant ^H2896.

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 your daughters ^H1323 play ^H2181 the ^H2181 prostitute ^H2181,

And your [fn]brides ^H3618 commit ^H5003 adultery ^H5003.

Those who live ^H3427 in his shadow ^H6738

Will [fn]again ^H7725 raise ^H2421 grain ^H1715,

And they will blossom ^H6524 like the vine ^H1612.

His fame ^H2143 will be like the wine ^H3196 of Lebanon ^H3844.

Then Jonah ^H3124 left ^H3318 the city ^H5892 and sat ^H3427 down ^H3427 east ^H6924 of [fn]it. There ^H8033 he made ^H6213 a shelter ^H5521 for himself and sat ^H3427 under ^H8478 it in the shade ^H6738, until ^H5704 H834 he could see ^H7200 what ^H4100 would happen ^H1961 in the city ^H5892.
