1Unto the end, for the morning protection, a psalm for David.In finem, pro susceptione matutina. Psalmus David.Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ τῆς ἀντιλήψεως τῆς ἑωθινῆς, ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυίδ.
2O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.Deus, Deus meus, respice in me: quare me dereliquisti? longe a salute mea verba delictorum meorum.Ὁ Θεός ὁ Θεός μου, πρόσχες μοι, ἱνατί ἐγκατέλιπές με; μακρὰν ἀπὸ τῆς σωτηρίας μου οἱ λόγοι τῶν παραπτωμάτων μου.
3O my God, I shall cry by day, and thou wilt not hear: and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me.Deus meus, clamabo per diem, et non exaudies; et nocte, et non ad insipientiam mihi.Ο Θεός μου, κεκράξομαι ἡμέρας πρὸς σὲ καὶ οὐκ εἰσακούσῃ, καὶ νυκτὸς καὶ οὐκ εἰς ἄνοιαν ἐμοί.
4But thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel.Tu autem in sancto habitas, laus Israël.Σὺ δὲ ἐν ἁγίῳ κατοικεῖς, ὁ ἔπαινος τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
5In thee have our fathers hoped: they have hoped, and thou hast delivered them.In te speraverunt patres nostri; speraverunt, et liberasti eos.Ἐπὶ σοὶ ἤλπισαν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν, ἤλπισαν καὶ ἐῤῥύσω αὐτούς.
6They cried to thee, and they were saved: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.Ad te clamaverunt, et salvi facti sunt; in te speraverunt, et non sunt confusi.Πρὸς σὲ ἐκέκραξαν καὶ ἐσώθησαν, ἐπὶ σοὶ ἤλπισαν καὶ οὐ κατῃσχύνθησαν.
7But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men, and the outcast of the people.Ego autem sum vermis, et non homo; opprobrium hominum, et abiectio plebis.Ἐγὼ δέ εἰμι σκώληξ καὶ οὐκ ἄνθρωπος, ὄνειδος ἀνθρώπων καὶ ἐξουδένημα λαοῦ.
8All they that saw me have laughed me to scorn: they have spoken with the lips, and wagged the head.Omnes videntes me deriserunt me; locuti sunt labiis, et moverunt caput.Πάντες οἱ θεωροῦντές με ἐξεμυκτήρισάν με, ἐλάλησαν ἐν χείλεσιν, ἐκίνησαν κεφαλὴν,
9He hoped in the Lord, let him deliver him: let him save him, seeing he delighteth in him.Speravit in Domino, eripiat eum: salvum faciat eum, quoniam vult eum.ἤλπισεν ἐπὶ Κύριον, ῥυσάσθω αὐτὸν, σωσάτω αὐτὸν, ὅτι θέλει αὐτόν.
10For thou art he that hast drawn me out of the womb: my hope from the breasts of my mother.Quoniam tu es qui extraxisti me de ventre, spes mea ab uberibus matris meae.Ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐκσπάσας με ἐκ γαστρὸς, ἡ ἐλπίς μου ἀπὸ μαστῶν τῆς μητρός μου,
11I was cast upon thee from the womb. From my mother’s womb thou art my God,In te proiectus sum ex utero; de ventre matris meae Deus meus es tu:ἐπὶ σὲ ἐπεῤῥίφην ἐκ μήτρας· ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός μου Θεός μου εἶ σύ.
12Depart not from me. For tribulation is very near: for there is none to help me.ne discesseris a me, quoniam tribulatio proxima est, quoniam non est qui adiuvet.Μὴ ἀποστῇς ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ· ὅτι θλίψις ἐγγὺς, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ βοηθῶν.
13Many calves have surrounded me: fat bulls have besieged me.Circumdederunt me vituli multi; tauri pingues obsederunt me.Περιεκύκλωσάν με μόσχοι πολλοί, ταῦροι πίονες περιέσχον με.
14They have opened their mouths against me, as a lion ravening and roaring.Aperuerunt super me os suum, sicut leo rapiens et rugiens.Ἤνοιξαν ἐπʼ ἐμὲ τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν, ὡς λέων ὁ ἁρπάζων καὶ ὠρυόμενος.
15I am poured out like water; and all my bones are scattered. My heart is become like wax melting in the midst of my bowels.Sicut aqua effusus sum, et dispersa sunt omnia ossa mea: factum est cor meum tamquam cera liquescens in medio ventris mei.Ὡσεὶ ὕδωρ ἐξεχύθην, καὶ διεσκορπίσθη πάντα τὰ ὀστᾶ μου, ἐγενήθη ἡ καρδία μου ὡσεὶ κηρὸς τηκόμενος ἐν μέσῳ τῆς κοιλίας μου.
16My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue hath cleaved to my jaws: and thou hast brought me down into the dust of death.Aruit tamquam testa virtus mea, et lingua mea adhaesit faucibus meis: et in pulverem mortis deduxisti me.Ἐξηράνθη ὡσεὶ ὄστρακον ἡ ἰσχύς μου, καὶ ἡ γλῶσσά μου κεκόλληται τῷ λάρυγγί μου, καὶ εἰς χοῦν θανάτου κατήγαγές με.
17For many dogs have encompassed me: the council of the malignant hath besieged me. They have dug my hands and feet.Quoniam circumdederunt me canes multi; concilium malignantium obsedit me. Foderunt manus meas et pedes meos;Ὅτι ἐκύκλωσάν με κύνες πολλοὶ, συναγωγὴ πονηρευομένων περιέσχον με· ὤρυξαν χεῖράς μου, καὶ πόδας,
18They have numbered all my bones. And they have looked and stared upon me.dinumeraverunt omnia ossa mea. Ipsi vero consideraverunt et inspexerunt me.ἐξηρίθμησαν πάντα τὰ ὀστᾶ μου· αὐτοὶ δὲ κατενόησαν καὶ ἐπεῖδόν με.
19They parted my garments amongst them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.Diviserunt sibi vestimenta mea, et super vestem meam miserunt sortem.Διεμερίσαντο τὰ ἱμάτιά μου ἑαυτοῖς, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν ἱματισμόν μου ἔβαλον κλῆρον.
20But thou, O Lord, remove not thy help to a distance from me; look towards my defence.Tu autem, Domine, ne elongaveris auxilium tuum a me; ad defensionem meam conspice.Σὺ δὲ Κύριε μὴ μακρύνῃς τὴν βοήθειάν μου, εἰς τὴν ἀντίληψίν μου πρόσχες.
21Deliver, O God, my soul from the sword: my only one from the hand of the dog.Erue a framea, Deus, animam meam, et de manu canis unicam meam.Ῥῦσαι ἀπὸ ῥομφαίας τὴν ψυχήν μου, καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς κυνὸς τὴν μονογενῆ μου.
22Save me from the lion’s mouth; and my lowness from the horns of the unicorns.Salva me ex ore leonis, et a cornibus unicornium humilitatem meam.Σῶσόν με ἐκ στόματος λέοντος, καὶ ἀπὸ κεράτων μονοκερώτων τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου.
23I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I praise thee.Narrabo nomen tuum fratribus meis; in medio ecclesiae laudabo te.Διηγήσομαι τὸ ὄνομά σου τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς μου, ἐν μέσῳ ἐκκλησίας ὑμνήσω σε.
24Ye that fear the Lord, praise him: all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him.Qui timetis Dominum, laudate eum; universum semen Iacob, glorificate eum.Οἱ φοβούμενοι Κύριον αἰνέσατε αὐτὸν, ἅπαν τὸ σπέρμα Ἰακὼβ δοξάσατε αὐτὸν, φοβηθήτωσαν αὐτὸν ἅπαν τὸ σπέρμα Ἰσραήλ.
25Let all the seed of Israel fear him: because he hath not slighted nor despised the supplication of the poor man. Neither hath he turned away his face from me: and when I cried to him he heard me.Timeat eum omne semen Israël, quoniam non sprevit, neque despexit deprecationem pauperis, nec avertit faciem suam a me: et cum clamarem ad eum, exaudivit me.Οτι οὐκ ἐξουδένωσεν οὐδὲ προσώχθισε τῇ δεήσει τοῦ πτωχοῦ, οὐδὲ ἀπέστρεψε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰσήκουσέ μου.
26With thee is my praise in a great church: I will pay my vows in the sight of them that fear him.Apud te laus mea in ecclesia magna; vota mea reddam in conspectu timentium eum.Παρὰ σοῦ ὁ ἔπαινός μου ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ μεγάλῃ, τὰς εὐχάς μου ἀποδώσω ἐνώπιον τῶν φοβουμένων αὐτόν.
27The poor shall eat and shall be filled: and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their hearts shall live for ever and ever.Edent pauperes, et saturabuntur, et laudabunt Dominum qui requirunt eum: vivent corda eorum in saeculum saeculi.Φάγονται πένητες καὶ ἐμπλησθήσονται, καὶ αἰνέσουσι Κύριον οἱ ἐκζητοῦντες αὐτὸν, ζήσονται αἱ καρδίαι αὐτῶν εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος.
28All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord: And all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight.Reminiscentur et convertentur ad Dominum universi fines terrae; et adorabunt in conspectu eius universae familiae gentium:Μνησθήσονται καὶ ἐπιστραφήσονται πρὸς Κύριον πάντα τὰ πέρατα τῆς γῆς, καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ πᾶσαι αἱ πατριαὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν.
29For the kingdom is the Lord’s; and he shall have dominion over the nations.quoniam Domini est regnum, et ipse dominabitur gentium.Ὅτι τοῦ Κυρίου ἡ βασιλεία, καὶ αὐτὸς δεσπόζει τῶν ἐθνῶν.
30All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and have adored: all they that go down to the earth shall fall before him.Manducaverunt et adoraverunt omnes pingues terrae; in conspectu eius cadent omnes qui descendunt in terram.Ἔφαγον καὶ προσεκύνησαν πάντες οἱ πίονες τῆς γῆς· ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ προπεσοῦνται πάντες οἱ καταβαίνοντες εἰς τὴν γῆν· καὶ ἡ ψυχή μου αὐτῷ ζῇ,
31And to him my soul shall live: and my seed shall serve him.Et anima mea illi vivet; et semen meum serviet ipsi.καὶ τὸ σπέρμα μου δουλεύσει αὐτῷ· ἀναγγελήσεται τῷ Κυρίῳ γενεὰ ἡ ἐρχομένη·
32There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come: and the heavens shall shew forth his justice to a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.Annuntiabitur Domino generatio ventura; et annuntiabunt caeli iustitiam eius populo qui nascetur, quem fecit Dominus.Καὶ ἀναγγελοῦσι τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ λαῷ τῷ τεχθησομένῳ, ὃν ἐποίησεν ὁ Κύριος.

Jesus laments over Jerusalem, which kills the prophets

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
