Psalms 61

1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ Ἰδιθοὺν ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυίδ.

2 Οὐχὶ τῷ Θεῷ ὑποταγήσεται ἡ ψυχή μου; παρʼ αὐτοῦ γὰρ τὸ σωτήριόν μου.

3 Καὶ γὰρ αὐτὸς Θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου, ἀντιλήπτωρ μου, οὐ μὴ σαλευθῶ ἐπὶ πλεῖον.

4 Ἕως πότε ἐπιτίθεσθε ἐπʼ ἄνθρωπον; φονεύετε πάντες ὡς τοίχῳ κεκλιμένῳ καὶ φραγμῷ ὠσμένῳ.

5 Πλὴν τὴν τιμήν μου ἐβουλεύσαντο ἀπώσασθαι· ἔδραμον ἐν δίψει· τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐλόγουν, καὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν κατηρῶντο. διάψαλμα.

6 Πλὴν τῷ Θεῷ ὑποτάγηθι, ἡ ψυχή μου, ὅτι παρʼ αὐτοῦ ἡ ὑπομονή μου.

7 Ὅτι αὐτὸς Θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου, ἀντιλήπτωρ μου, οὐ μὴ μεταναστεύσω.

8 Ἐπὶ τῷ Θεῷ τὸ σωτήριόν μου, καὶ ἡ δόξα μου· ὁ Θεὸς τῆς βοηθείας μου, καὶ ἡ ἐλπίς μου ἐπὶ τῷ Θεῷ.

9 Ἐλπίσατε ἐπʼ αὐτὸν πᾶσα συναγωγὴ λαοῦ· ἐκχέετε ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν, ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς βοηθὸς ἡμῶν· διάψαλμα.

10 Πλὴν μάταιοι οἱ νἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ψευδεῖς οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐν ζυγοῖς τοῦ ἀδικῆσαι, αὐτοὶ ἐκ ματαιότητος ἐπιτοαυτό.

11 Μὴ ἐλπίζετε ἐπʼ ἀδικίαν, καὶ ἐπὶ ἁρπάγματα μὴ ἐπιποθεῖτε· πλοῦτος ἐὰν ῥέῃ, μὴ προστίθεσθε καρδίαν.

12 Ἅπαξ ἐλάλησεν ὁ Θεὸς, δύο ταῦτα ἤκουσα, ὅτι τὸ κράτος τοῦ Θεοῦ·

13 καὶ σοῦ, Κύριε τὸ ἔλεος, ὅτι σὺ ἀποδώσεις ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ.

1 For the end, a Psalm of David for Idithun.

2 Shall not my soul be subjected to God? for of him is my salvation.

4 How long will ye assault a man? ye are all slaughtering as with a bowed wall and a broken hedge.

5 They only took counsel to set at nought mine honour: I ran in thirst: with their mouth they blessed, but with their heart they cursed. Pause.

6 Nevertheless do thou, my soul, be subjected to God; for of him is my patient hope.

7 For he is my God and my Saviour; my helper, I shall not be moved.

8 In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

9 Hope in him, all ye congregation of the people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our helper. Pause.

10 But the sons of men are vain; the sons of men are false, so as to be deceitful in the balances; they are all alike formed out of vanity.

altogether.

11 Trust not in unrighteousness, and lust not after robberies: if wealth should flow in, set not your heart upon it.

12 God has spoken once, and I have heard these two things, that power is of God;

13 and mercy is thine, O Lord; for thou wilt recompense every one according to his works.
