לְשַׁבָּחָא תּוּשְׁבַּחְתָּא לְדָוִד:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

For praise, a hymn of David.

עַד אָן יְיָ תַּשְׁלִינַנִי לְעָלְמִין עַד אָן תִּטְמוֹר זִיו אַפָּךְ מִנִי:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

How long, O LORD, will you neglect me forever? How long will you hide the splendor of your face from me?

עַד אָן אֲשַׁוֵי מִלְכָּא בְּנַפְשִׁי דְוָנָא בִּלְבָבִי יְמָם עַד אָן יִתְּרָם בְּעֵל דְבָבִי עֲלָי:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

How long will I put warnings in my soul, suffering in my heart daily? How long will my enemy vaunt himself over me?

אִסְתַּכֵּל וְקַבֵּל צְלוֹתִי יְיָ אֱלָהִי אַנְהִיר עֵינַי בְּאוֹרַיַתָךְ דִלְמָא אֱחוֹב וְאֶדְמוּךְ עִם חַיָבֵי מוֹתָא:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

Pay heed and receive my prayer, O LORD my God; illumine my eyes by your Torah, lest I sin and sleep with those who deserve death.

דִלְמָא יֵימַר יִצְרָא בִישָׁא אַשְׁלַטְתֵּיהּ מְעִיקַי יְרַנֵנוּן מְטוּל אֶסְטֵי מֵאָרְחָתָךְ:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

Lest the evil impulse⁵³ should say, “I have taken control of him,” [lest] my oppressors rejoice because I stray⁵⁴ from your paths.

footnotes: ⁵³ my enemy ⁵⁴ have strayed

וַאֲנָא בְּטוּבָךְ אִתְרַחֲצֵית יְרַנֵן לְבָבִי בְּפוּרְקָנָךְ אֲשַׁבַּח קֳדָם יְיָ מְטוּל דִפְרִיעַ עֲלָי טָבְתָא:

The Psalms Targum: An English Translation (Edward M. Cook)

But I have placed my trust in your goodness, my heart will rejoice in your redemption; I will give praise in the Lord’s presence because he rewards me with good things.
