Psalms 61

εἰς τὸ τέλος ὑπὲρ Ιδιθουν ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ

For the end, a Psalm of David for Jeduthun.

οὐχὶ τῷ θεῷ ὑποταγήσεται ἡ ψυχή μου παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ γὰρ τὸ σωτήριόν μου

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

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

For he is my God and my Savior; My helper, I shall not be moved very much.

ἕως πότε ἐπιτίθεσθε ἐπ᾿ ἄνθρωπον φονεύετε πάντες ὡς τοίχῳ κεκλιμένῳ καὶ φραγμῷ ὠσμένῳ

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

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

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

πλὴν τῷ θεῷ ὑποτάγηθι ἡ ψυχή μου ὅτι παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἡ ὑπομονή μου

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

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

For he is my God and my Savior; My helper, I shall not be moved.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

Trust not in unrighteousness, And lust not after robberies: If wealth should flow in, set not your heart upon it.

ἅπαξ ἐλάλησεν ὁ θεός δύο ταῦτα ἤκουσα

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

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

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