Greek Septuagint
1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ψαλμοῖς ᾠδὴ τᾠ Δαυίδ.
2 Ἐν τῷ ἐπικαλεῖσθαί με, εἰσήκουσέ μου ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δικαιοσύνης μου· ἐν θλίψει ἐπλάτυνάς μοι· οἰκτείρησόν με, καὶ εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου.
3 Υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων, ἕως πότε βαρυκάρδιοι; ἱνατί ἀγαπᾶτε ματαιότητα, καὶ ζητεῖτε ψεῦδος; διάψαλμα.
4 Καὶ γνῶτε ὅτι ἐθαυμάστωσε Κύριος τὸν ὅσιον αὐτοῦ, Κύριος εἰσακούσεταί μου ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς αὐτόν.
5 Ὀργίζεσθε καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε· ἃ λέγετε ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν, ἐπὶ ταῖς κοίταις ὑμῶν κατανύγητε· διάψαλμα.
6 Θύσατε θυσίαν δικαιοσύνης, καὶ ἐλπίσατε ἐπὶ Κύριον.
7 Πολλοὶ λέγουσι, τίς δείξει ἡμῖν τὰ ἀγαθά; ἐσημειώθη ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς τὸ φῶς τοῦ προσώπου σου, Κύριε.
8 Ἔδωκας εὐφροσύνην εἰς τὴν καρδίαν μου· ἀπὸ καρποῦ σίτου καὶ οἴνου καὶ ἐλαίου αὐτῶν ἐπληθύνθησαν.
9 Ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ κοιμηθήσομαι, καὶ ὑπνώσω· ὅτι σὺ Κύριε κατὰ μόνας ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι κατῴκισάς με.
Brenton English
1 For the end, a Song of David among the Psalms.
2 When I called upon him , the God of my righteousness heard me: thou hast made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and hearken to my prayer.
3 O ye sons of men, how long will ye be slow of heart? wherefore do ye love vanity, and seek falsehood? Pause.
heavy of heart.
4 But know ye that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.
5 Be ye angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what ye say in your hearts. Pause.
6 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.
7 Many say, Who will shew us good things? the light of thy countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.
8 Thou hast put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their corn and wine and oil.
9 I will both lie down in peace and sleep: for thou, Lord, only hast caused me to dwell securely.
