1ψαλμοϲ τω δαυειδ εν τω ειναι αυτον εν τη ερημω τηϲ ϊουδαιαϲ 2ο θϲ ο θϲ μου προϲ ϲε ορθριζω εδιψηϲεν ϲοι η ψυχη μου ποϲαπλωϲ ϲοι η ϲαρξ μου εν γη ερημω και αβατω και ανυδρω 3ουτωϲ εν τω αγιω ωφθην ϲοι του ϊδειν την δυναμιν ϲου και την δοξαν ϲου 4οτι κρειϲϲον το ελεοϲ ϲου ϋπερ ζωαϲ τα χειλη μου επαινεϲουϲιν ϲε 5ουτωϲ ευλογηϲω ϲε εν τη ζωη μου εν τω ονοματι ϲου αρω ταϲ χειραϲ μου
1Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. 2He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved. 3How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence. 4They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah. 5My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
6 7ει εμνημονευον ϲου επι τηϲ ϲτρωμνηϲ μου εν τοιϲ ορθροιϲ εμελετων ειϲ ϲε 8οτι εγενηθηϲ βοηθοϲ μου και εν τη ϲκεπη των πτερυγων ϲου αγαλλιαϲομαι 9εκολληθη η ψυχη μου οπιϲω ϲου εμου αντελαβετο η δεξια ϲου 10αυτοι δε ειϲ ματην εζητηϲαν την ψυχην μου ειϲελευϲονται ειϲ τα κατωτατα τηϲ γηϲ
6He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. 7In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. 8Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah. 9Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity. 10Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
11μεριδεϲ αλωπεκων εϲονται 12ο δε βαϲιλευϲ ευφρανθηϲεται επι τω κω επαινεϲθηϲεται παϲ ο ομνυων εν αυτω οτι ενεφραγη ϲτομα λαλουντων αδικα
11God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God. 12Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
