Greek Septuagint
1 Ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυὶδ, ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τῆς Ἰδουμαίας.
2 Ὁ Θεὸς ὁ Θεός μου πρὸς σὲ ὀρθρίζω, ἐδίψησέ σοι ἡ ψυχή μου, ποσαπλῶς σοι ἡ σάρξ μου, ἐν γῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ ἀβάτῳ καὶ ἀνύδρῳ,
3 οὕτως ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ ὤφθην σοι, τοῦ ἰδεῖν τὴν δύναμίν σου καὶ τὴν δόξαν σου.
4 Ὅτι κρεῖσσον τὸ ἔλεός σου ὑπὲρ ζωὰς, τὰ χείλη μου ἐπαινέσουσί σε.
5 Οὕτως εὐλογήσω σε ἐν τῇ ζωῇ μου, ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀρῶ τὰς χεῖράς μου.
6 Ὡσεὶ στέατος καὶ πιότητος ἐμπλησθείη ἡ ψυχή μου, καὶ χείλη ἀγαλλιάσεως αἰνέσει τὸ ὄνομά σου.
7 Εἰ ἐμνημόνευόν σου ἐπὶ τῆς στρωμνῆς μου, ἐν τοῖς ὄρθροις ἐμελέτων εἰς σέ.
8 Ὅτι ἐγενήθης βοηθός μου, καὶ ἐν τῇ σκέπῃ τῶν πτερύγων σου ἀγαλλιάσομαι.
9 Ἐκολλήθη ἡ ψυχή μου ὀπίσω σου, ἐμοῦ ἀντελάβετο ἡ δεξιά σου.
10 Αὐτοὶ δὲ εἰς μάτην ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου, εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὰ κατώτατα τῆς γῆς,
11 παραδοθήσονται εἰς χεῖρας ῥομφαίας, μερίδες ἀλωπέκων ἔσονται.
12 Ὁ δὲ βασιλεὺς εὐφρανθήσεται ἐπὶ τῷ Θεῷ, ἐπαινεθήσεται πᾶς ὁ ὀμνύων ἐν αὐτῷ, ὅτι ἐνεφράγη στόμα λαλούντων ἄδικα.
Brenton English
1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Idumea.
2 O God, my God, I cry to thee early; my soul has thirsted for thee: how often has my flesh longed after thee, in a barren and trackless and dry land!
3 Thus have I appeared before thee in the sanctuary, that I might see thy power and thy glory.
4 For thy mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise thee.
lives.
5 Thus will I bless thee during my life: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and my joyful lips shall praise thy name.
7 Forasmuch as I have remembered thee on my bed: in the early seasons I have meditated on thee.
if. See Acts 26. 23.
8 For thou hast been my helper, and in the shelter of thy wings will I rejoice.
9 My soul has kept very close behind thee: thy right hand has upheld me.
been glued.
10 But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts of the earth.
11 They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for foxes.
12 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.
