Psalms, 61

1. Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David.

1. Gr. Psalm 61 (Heb. 62) εἰς τὸ τέλος ὑπὲρ Ιδιθουν ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ

2. Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.

2. οὐχὶ τῷ θεῷ ὑποταγήσεται ἡ ψυχή μου παρ’ αὐτοῦ γὰρ τὸ σωτήριόν μου

3. For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.

3. καὶ γὰρ αὐτὸς θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου οὐ μὴ σαλευθῶ ἐπὶ πλεῖον

4. How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.

4. ἕως πότε ἐπιτίθεσθε ἐπ’ ἄνθρωπον φονεύετε πάντες ὡς τοίχῳ κεκλιμένῳ καὶ φραγμῷ ὠσμένῳ

5. But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.

5. πλὴν τὴν τιμήν μου ἐβουλεύσαντο ἀπώσασθαι ἔδραμον ἐν ψεύδει τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐλογοῦσαν καὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν κατηρῶντο διάψαλμα

6. But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.

6. πλὴν τῷ θεῷ ὑποτάγηθι ἡ ψυχή μου ὅτι παρ’ αὐτοῦ ἡ ὑπομονή μου

7. For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.

7. ὅτι αὐτὸς θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου οὐ μὴ μεταναστεύσω

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

8. ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ τὸ σωτήριόν μου καὶ ἡ δόξα μου ὁ θεὸς τῆς βοηθείας μου καὶ ἡ ἐλπίς μου ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ

9. Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.

9. ἐλπίσατε ἐπ’ αὐτόν πᾶσα συναγωγὴ λαοῦ ἐκχέετε ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν ὁ θεὸς βοηθὸς ἡμῶν διάψαλμα

10. But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.

10. πλὴν μάταιοι οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ψευδεῖς οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐν ζυγοῖς τοῦ ἀδικῆσαι αὐτοὶ ἐκ ματαιότητος ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό

11. Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

11. μὴ ἐλπίζετε ἐπὶ ἀδικίαν καὶ ἐπὶ ἅρπαγμα μὴ ἐπιποθεῖτε πλοῦτος ἐὰν ῥέῃ μὴ προστίθεσθε καρδίαν

12. God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God,

12. ἅπαξ ἐλάλησεν ὁ θεός δύο ταῦτα ἤκουσα

13. and mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.

13. ὅτι τὸ κράτος τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ σοί κύριε τὸ ἔλεος ὅτι σὺ ἀποδώσεις ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ
