ΛF΄

Τοῦ Δαυείδ.

Μὴ παραζήλου ἐν πονηρευομένοις,

μηδέ ζήλου τοὺς ποιοῦντας τὴν ἀνομίαν·

¹³

ὅτι ὡσεὶ χόρτος ταχὺ ἀποξηρανθήσονται,

καὶ ὡσεὶ λάχανα χλόης ταχὺ ἀποπεσοῦνται.

ἔλπισον ἐπὶ Κύριον καὶ ποίει χρηστότητα,

καὶ κατασκήνου τὴν γῆν

καὶ ποιμανθήσῃ ἐπὶ τῷ πλούτῳ αὐτῆς.

κατατρύφησον τοῦ κυρίου, καὶ δώσει σοι τὰ αἰτήματα τῆς καρδίας σου.

ἀποκάλυψον πρὸς Κύριον τὴν ὁδόν σου

καὶ ἔλπισον ἐπʼ αὐτόν, καὶ αὐτὸς ποιήσει·

καὶ ἐξοίσει ὡς φῶς τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου,

καὶ τὸ κρίμα σου ὡς μεσημβρίαν.

ὑποτάγηθι τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἱκέτευσον αὐτόν·

μὴ παραζήλου ἐν τῷ κατευοδουμένῳ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ.

ἐν ἀνθρώπῳ ποιοῦντι παρανομίας.

παῦσαι ἀπὸ ὀργῆς καὶ ἐνκατάλιπε θυμόν.

μὴ παραζήλου ὤστε πονηρεύεσθαι.

ὅτι οἱ πονηρευόμενοι ἐξολοθρευθήσονται,

οἱ δὲ ὑπομένοντες τὸν κύριον αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσιν τὴν γῆν.

καὶ ἔτι ὀλίγον καὶ οὐ μὴ ὑπάρξῃ ἁμαρτωλός,

καὶ ζητήσεις τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ εὕρῃς·

οἱ δέ πρᾳεῖς κληρονομήσουσιν

καὶ κατατρυφήσουσιν ἐπὶ πλήθει εἰρήνης.

παρατηρήσεται ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς τὸν δίκαιον,

καὶ βρύξει ἐπʼ αὐτὸν τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτοῦ·

δὲ κύριος ἐκγελάσεται αὐτόν,

ὅτι προβλέπει ὅτι ἤξει ἡ ἡμέρα αὐτοῦ.

ῥομφαίαν ἐσπάσαντο οἱ ἁμαρτωλοί,

ἐνέτειναν τόξον αὐτῶν,

τοῦ καταβαλεῖν πτωχὸν καὶ πένητα,

τοῦ σφάξαι τοὺς εὐθεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ·

⁴⁵

ἡ ῥομφαία αὐτῶν εἰσέλθοι εἰς τὴν καρδίαν αὐτῶν,

⁶

καὶ τὰ τόξα αὐτῶν συντριβείησαν.

κρεῖσσον ὀλίγον τῷ δικαίῳ ὑπέρ πλοῦτον ἁμαρτωλῶν πολύν.

ὅτι βραχίονες ἁμαρτωλῶν συντριβήσονται,

ὑποστηρίζει δὲ τοὺς δικαίους Κύριος.

γινώσκει Κύριος τὰς ὁδοὺς τῶν ἀμώμων,

καὶ ἡ κληρονομία αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔσται·

οὐ καταισχυνθήσονται ἐν καιρῷ πονηρῷ,

καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις λιμοῦ χορτασθήσονται.

ὅτι οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀπολοῦνται,

οἱ δὲ ἐχθροὶ τοῦ κυρίου ἅμα τῷ δοξασθῆναι αὐτοὺς καὶ

§ὑψωθῆναι

⁷

ἐκλιπόντες ὡσεὶ καπνὸς ἐξέλιπον.

δανίζεται ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς καὶ οὐκ ἀποτίσει

ὁ δὲ δίκαιος οἰκτείρει καὶ διδοῖ

ὅτι οἱ εὐλογοῦντες αὐτὸν κληρονομήσουσι γῆν,

οἱ δὲ καταρώμενοι αὐτὸν ἐξολοθρευθήσονται.

παρὰ Κυρίου τὰ διαβήματα ἀνθρώπου κατευθύνεται.

καὶ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ θελήσει·

ὅταν πέσῃ οὐ καταραχθήσεται,

ὅτι Κύριος ἀντιστηρίζει χεῖρα αὐτοῦ.

νεώτερος ἐγενόμην καὶ γὰρ ἐγήρασα,

καὶ οὐκ ἴδον δίκαιον ἐνκαταλελιμμένον

οὐδὲ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ζητοῦν ἄρτους.

ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἐλεῷ καὶ δανίζει,

καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ εἰς εὐλογίαν ἔσται.

ἔκκλινον ἀπὸ κακοῦ καὶ ποίησον ἀγαθόν,

καὶ κατασκήνου εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος.

ὅτι Κύριος ἀγαπῷ κρίσιν,

καὶ οὐκ ἐνκαταλείψει τοὺς ὁσίους αὐτοῦ,

⁸¹⁰

εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα φυλαχθήσονται·

ἄμωμοι ἐκδικηθήσονται,

καὶ σπέρμα ἀσεβῶν ἐξολοθρευθήσεται.

δίκαιοι δέ κληρονομήσουσι γῆν,

καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος ἐπʼ αὐτῆς.

στόμα δικαίου μελετήσει σοφίαν,

καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ λαλήσει κρίσιν·

ὁ νόμος τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ἐν καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ,

καὶ οὐχ ὑποσκελισθήσεται τὰ διαβήματα αὐτοῦ.

κατανοήσει ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς τὸν δίκαιον, καὶ ζητεῖ τοῦ θανατῶσαι αὐτόν·

ὁ δὲ κύριος οὐ μὴ ἐνκαταλίπῃ αὐτὸν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ,

οὐδὲ μὴ καταδικάσῃ αὐτὸν ὅταν κρίνηται αὐτῷ.

ὑπόμεινον τὸν κύριον καὶ φύλαξον τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ,

καὶ ὑψώσει σε τοῦ κατακληρονομῆσαι τὴν γῆν,

ἐν τῷ ἐξολεθρεύεσθαι ἁμαρτωλοὺς ὄψῃ.

εἶδον ἀσεβῆ ὑπερυψούμενον

καὶ ἐπαιρόμενον ὡς τὰς κέδρους τοῦ Λιβάνου·

καὶ παρῆλθον, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν·

καὶ ἐζήτησα αὐτόν, καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθη ὁ τόπος αὐτοῦ.

φύλασσε ἀκακίαν καὶ ἴδε εὐθύτητα,

ὅτι ἐστὶν ἐνκατάλιμμα ἀνθρώπῳ εἰρηνικῷ.

οἱ δὲ παράνομοι ἐξολεθρευθήσονται ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό,

τὰ ἐνκαταλίμματα τῶν ἀσεβῶν ἐξολεθρευθήσονται.

σωτηρία δὲ τῶν δικαίων παρὰ Κυρίῳ,

καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς αὐτῶν ἐστιν ἐν καιρῷ θλίψεως·

καὶ βοηθήσει αὐτοῖς Κύριος καὶ ῥύσεται αὐτούς,

¹¹¹²

καὶ ἐξελεῖται αὐτοὺς ἐξ ἁμαρτωλῶν καὶ σώσει αὐτούς, ὅτι

¹³

ἤλπισαν ἐπʼ αὐτόν.

For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of Yahweh.

An oracle is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: “There is no fear of God before his eyes.”

For he flatters himself in his own eyes, Too much to detect and hate his sin.

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good; He doesn’t abhor evil.

Your lovingkindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.

How precious is your lovingkindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.

For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.

Oh continue your lovingkindness to those who know you, Your righteousness to the upright in heart.

Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.

There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
