| 1 | The psalm of David which he sung to the Lord for the words of Chusi the son of Jemini. | Psalmus David, quem cantavit Domino pro verbis Chusi, filii Iemini. | Ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυὶδ, ὃν ᾖσε τῷ Κυρίῳ ὑπὲρ τῶν λόγων Χουσὶ υἱοῦ Ἰεμενεί. |
| 2 | O Lord my God, in thee have I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me. | Domine Deus meus, in te speravi; salvum me fac ex omnibus persequentibus me, et libera me: | Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, ἐπὶ σοὶ ἤλπισα, σῶσόν με ἐκ πάντων τῶν διωκόντων με, καὶ ῥῦσαί με, |
| 3 | Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save. | nequando rapiat ut leo animam meam, dum non est qui redimat, neque qui salvum faciat. | μή ποτε ἁρπάσῃ ὡς λέων τὴν ψυχήν μου, μὴ ὄντος λυτρουμένου, μηδὲ σώζοντος. |
| 4 | O Lord my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands: | Domine Deus meus, si feci istud, si est iniquitas in manibus meis, | Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, εἰ ἐποίησα τοῦτο, εἰ ἔστιν ἀδικία ἐν χερσί μου, |
| 5 | If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies. | si reddidi retribuentibus mihi mala, decidam merito ab inimicis meis inanis. | εἰ ἀνταπέδωκα τοῖς ἀνταποδιδοῦσί μοι κακὰ, ἀποπέσοιμι ἄρα ἀπὸ τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου κενός· |
| 6 | Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust. | Persequatur inimicus animam meam, et comprehendat; et conculcet in terra vitam meam, et gloriam meam in pulverem deducat. | Καταδιώξαι ὁ ἐχθρὸς τὴν ψυχήν μου καὶ καταλάβοι, καὶ καταπατήσαι εἰς γῆν τὴν ζωήν μου, καὶ τὴν δόξαν μου εἰς χοῦν κατασκηνώσαι· διάψαλμα. |
| 7 | Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded: | Exsurge, Domine, in ira tua, et exaltare in finibus inimicorum meorum: et exsurge, Domine Deus meus, in praecepto quod mandasti, | Ἀνάστηθι Κύριε ἐν ὀργῇ σου, ὑψώθητι ἐν τοῖς πέρασι τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου· ἐξεγέρθητι Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου ἐν προστάγματι ᾧ ἐνετείλω, |
| 8 | And a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high. | et synagoga populorum circumdabit te: et propter hanc in altum regredere: | καὶ συναγωγὴ λαῶν κυκλώσει σε· καὶ ὑπὲρ ταύτης εἰς ὕψος ἐπίστρεψον. |
| 9 | The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me. | Dominus iudicat populos. Iudica me, Domine, secundum iustitiam meam, et secundum innocentiam meam super me. | Κύριος κρινεῖ λαούς· κρίνον με Κύριε κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου, καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἀκακίαν μου ἐπʼ ἐμοί. |
| 10 | The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought: and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God. | Consumetur nequitia peccatorum, et diriges iustum, scrutans corda et renes, Deus. | Συντελεσθήτω δὴ πονηρία ἁμαρτωλῶν, καὶ κατευθυνεῖς δίκαιον, ἐτάζων καρδίας καὶ νεφροὺς ὁ Θεός. |
| 11 | Just is my help from the Lord: who saveth the upright of heart. | Iustum adiutorium meum a Domino, qui salvos facit rectos corde. | Δικαία ἡ βοήθειά μου παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ σώζοντος τοὺς εὐθεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ. |
| 12 | God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day? | Deus iudex iustus, fortis, et patiens; numquid irascitur per singulos dies? | Ὁ Θεὸς κριτὴς δίκαιος, καὶ ἰσχυρὸς, καὶ μακρόθυμος, μὴ ὀργὴν ἐπάγων καθʼ ἑκάστην ἡμέραν. |
| 13 | Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword: he hath bent his bow and made it ready. | Nisi conversi fueritis, gladium suum vibrabit; arcum suum tetendit, et paravit illum. | Ἐὰν μὴ ἐπιστραφῆτε, τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ στιλβώσει, τὸ τόξον αὐτοῦ ἐνέτεινε, καὶ ἡτοίμασεν αὐτό. |
| 14 | And in it he hath prepared the instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn. | Et in eo paravit vasa mortis, sagittas suas ardentibus effecit. | Καὶ ἐν αὐτῷ ἡτοίμασε σκεύη θανάτου, τὰ βέλη αὐτοῦ τοῖς καιομένοις ἐξειργάσατο. |
| 15 | Behold he hath been in labour with injustice; he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity. | Ecce parturiit iniustitiam; concepit dolorem, et peperit iniquitatem. | Ἰδοὺ ὠδίνησεν ἀδικίαν, συνέλαβε πόνον, καὶ ἔτεκεν ἀνομίαν. |
| 16 | He hath opened a pit and dug it; and he is fallen into the hole he made. | Lacum aperuit, et effodit eum; et incidit in foveam quam fecit. | Λάκκον ὤρυξε καὶ ἀνέσκαψεν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐμπεσεῖται εἰς βόθρον ὃν εἰργάσατο. |
| 17 | His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall comedown upon his crown. | Convertetur dolor eius in caput eius, et in verticem ipsius iniquitas eius descendet. | Ἐπιστρέψει ὁ πόνος αὐτοῦ εἰς κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ κορυφὴν αὐτοῦ ἡ ἀδικία αὐτοῦ καταβήσεται. |
| 18 | I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high. | Confitebor Domino secundum iustitiam eius, et psallam nomini Domini altissimi. | Ἐξομολογήσομαι Κυρίῳ κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ, ψαλῶ τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου τοῦ ὑψίστου. |
