Berean Standard Bible
1Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυΐδ.
1O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
2ΕΞΕΛΟΥ με, Κύριε, ἐξ ἀνθρώπου πονηροῦ, ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς ἀδίκου ρῦσαί με,
2You know when I sit and when I rise; You understand my thoughts from afar.
3οἵτινες ἐλογίσαντο ἀδικίαν ἐν καρδίᾳ, ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν παρετάσσοντο πολέμους·
3You search out my path and my lying down; You are aware of all my ways.
4ἠκόνησαν γλῶσσαν αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ ὄφεως, ἰὸς ἀσπίδων ὑπὸ τὰ χείλη αὐτῶν. (διάψαλμα).
4Even before a word is on my tongue, You know all about it, O LORD.
5φύλαξόν με, Κύριε, ἐκ χειρὸς ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων ἀδίκων ἐξελοῦ με, οἵτινες διελογίσαντο τοῦ ὑποσκελίσαι τὰ διαβήματά μου·
5You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me.
6ἔκρυψαν ὑπερήφανοι παγίδα μοι καὶ σχοινία διέτειναν, παγίδα τοῖς ποσί μου, ἐχόμενα τρίβους σκάνδαλα ἔθεντό μοι. (διάψαλμα).
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
7εἶπα τῷ Κυρίῳ· Θεός μου εἶ σύ, ἐνώτισαι, Κύριε, τὴν φωνὴν τῆς δεήσεώς μου.
7Where can I go to escape Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence?
8Κύριε, Κύριε, δύναμις τῆς σωτηρίας μου, ἐπεσκίασας ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν μου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πολέμου.
8If I ascend to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there.
9μὴ παραδῷς με, Κύριε, ἀπὸ τῆς ἐπιθυμίας μου ἁμαρτωλῷ· διελογίσαντο κατ᾿ ἐμοῦ, μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς με, μήποτε ὑψωθῶσιν. (διάψαλμα).
9If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle by the farthest sea,
10ἡ κεφαλὴ τοῦ κυκλώματος αὐτῶν, κόπος τῶν χειλέων αὐτῶν καλύψει αὐτούς.
10even there Your hand will guide me; Your right hand will hold me fast.
11πεσοῦνται ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς ἄνθρακες, ἐν πυρὶ καταβαλεῖς αὐτούς, ἐν ταλαιπωρίαις οὐ μὴ ὑποστῶσιν.
11If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me, and the light become night around me”—
12ἀνὴρ γλωσσώδης οὐ κατευθυνθήσεται ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἄνδρα ἄδικον κακὰ θηρεύσει εἰς διαφθοράν.
12even the darkness is not dark to You, but the night shines like the day, for darkness is as light to You.
13ἔγνων ὅτι ποιήσει Κύριος τὴν κρίσιν τῶν πτωχῶν καὶ τὴν δίκην τῶν πενήτων.
13For You formed my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14πλὴν δίκαιοι ἐξομολογήσονται τῷ ὀνόματί σου, κατοικήσουσιν εὐθεῖς σὺν τῷ προσώπῳ σου.
14I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works, and I know this very well.
