1Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David.
1Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ὕμνοις· συνέσεως τῷ Δαυΐδ
2When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us?
2ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν τοὺς Ζιφαίους καὶ εἰπεῖν τῷ Σαούλ· οὐκ ἰδοὺ Δαυΐδ κέκρυπται παρ᾿ ἡμῖν;
3Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.
3Ο ΘΕΟΣ, ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου σῶσόν με καὶ ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου κρῖνόν με.
4O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.
4ὁ Θεός, εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου, ἐνώτισαι τὰ ρήματα τοῦ στόματός μου.
5For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.
5ὅτι ἀλλότριοι ἐπανέστησαν ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ καὶ κραταιοὶ ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου καὶ οὐ προέθεντο τὸν Θεὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν. (διάψαλμα). ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς βοηθεῖ μοι, καὶ ὁ Κύριος ἀντιλήπτωρ τῆς ψυχῆς μου.
6For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.
no verse 6 in this text
7Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.
7ἀποστρέψει τὰ κακὰ τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου· ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου ἐξολόθρευσον αὐτούς.
8I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:
8ἑκουσίως θύσω σοι, ἐξομολογήσομαι τῷ ὀνόματί σου, Κύριε, ὅτι ἀγαθόν·
9For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.
9ὅτι ἐκ πάσης θλίψεως ἐρρύσω με, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου ἐπεῖδεν ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου.
