1ειϲ το τελοϲ ϋπερ τηϲ ογδοηϲ ψαλμοϲ τω δαυειδ 2ϲωϲον με κε οτι εκλελοιπεν οϲιοϲ οτι ωλιγωθηϲαν αι αληθειαι απο > των υιων των ανθρωπων 3ματαια ελαληϲαν εκαϲτοϲ προϲ τον πληϲιον αυτου χειλη δολια εν καρδια και εν καρδια ελαληϲαν 4εξολεθρευϲαι κϲ παντα τα χειλη τα δολια και γλωϲϲαν μεγαλορημονα 5τουϲ ειπονταϲ την γλωϲϲαν ημων μεγαλυνουμεν τα χειλη ημων παρ ημων εϲτιν τιϲ ημων κϲ εϲτιν
1In the LORD put I my trust: How say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? 2For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. 3If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? 4The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. 5The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6απο τηϲ ταλαι>πωριαϲ των πτωχων και απο του ϲτεναγμου των πενητω νυν αναϲτηϲομαι λεγει κϲ θηϲομαι εν ϲωτηρια παρρηϲιαϲομαι εν αυτω 7τα λογια κυ λογια αγνα αργυριον πεπυρωμενον δοκιμιον τη γη κεκαθαριϲμενον επταπλαϲιωϲ 8ϲυ κε φυλαξειϲ ημαϲ και διατηρηϲειϲ ημαϲ απο τηϲ γενεαϲ ταυτηϲ και ειϲ τον αιωνα 9κυκλω οι αϲεβειϲ περιπατουϲιν κατα το ϋψοϲ ϲου επολυωρηϲαϲ τουϲ υιουϲ των ανθρωπων
6Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup. 7For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
