A Prayer of David.
1 Hear a just cause, O LORD, Attend to my cry; Give ear to my prayer which is not from deceitful lips.
Αγαπήσω-σε-,-κύριε-η-ισχύς-μου-.-
2 Let my vindication come from Your presence; Let Your eyes look on the things that are upright.
κύριος-στερέωμά-μου-καὶ-καταφυγή-μου-καὶ-ρύστης-μου-,-ο-θεός-μου-βοηθός-μου-,-καὶ-ελπιῶ-επ᾿-αυτόν-,-υπερασπιστής-μου-καὶ-κέρας-σωτηρίας-μου-,-αντιλήμπτωρ-μου-.-
3 You have tested my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tried me and have found nothing; I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
αινῶν-επικαλέσομαι-κύριον-καὶ-εκ-τῶν-εχθρῶν-μου-σωθήσομαι-.-
4 Concerning the works of men, By the word of Your lips, I have kept away from the paths of the destroyer.
περιέσχον-με-ωδῖνες-θανάτου-,-καὶ-χείμαρροι-ανομίας-εξετάραξάν-με-
5 Uphold my steps in Your paths, That my footsteps may not slip.
ωδῖνες-άδου-περιεκύκλωσάν-με-,-προέφθασάν-με-παγίδες-θανάτου-.-
6 I have called upon You, for You will hear me, O God; Incline Your ear to me, and hear my speech.
καὶ-εν-τῶ-θλίβεσθαί-με-επεκαλεσάμην-τὸν-κύριον-καὶ-πρὸς-τὸν-θεόν-μου-εκέκραξα-·-ήκουσεν-εκ-ναοῦ-αγίου-αυτοῦ-φωνῆς-μου-,-καὶ-η-κραυγή-μου-ενώπιον-αυτοῦ-εισελεύσεται-εις-τὰ-ῶτα-αυτοῦ-.-
7 Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust in You From those who rise up against them.
καὶ-εσαλεύθη-καὶ-έντρομος-εγενήθη-η-γῆ-,-καὶ-τὰ-θεμέλια-τῶν-ορέων-εταράχθησαν-καὶ-εσαλεύθησαν-,-ότι-ωργίσθη-αυτοῖς-ο-θεός-.-
8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,
ανέβη-καπνὸς-εν-οργῆ-αυτοῦ-,-καὶ-πῦρ-απὸ-προσώπου-αυτοῦ-κατεφλόγισεν-,-άνθρακες-ανήφθησαν-απ᾿-αυτοῦ-.-
9 From the wicked who oppress me, From my deadly enemies who surround me.
καὶ-έκλινεν-ουρανὸν-καὶ-κατέβη-,-καὶ-γνόφος-υπὸ-τοὺς-πόδας-αυτοῦ-.-
10 They have closed up their fat hearts; With their mouths they speak proudly.
καὶ-επέβη-επὶ-χερουβιν-καὶ-επετάσθη-,-επετάσθη-επὶ-πτερύγων-ανέμων-.-
11 They have now surrounded us in our steps; They have set their eyes, crouching down to the earth,
καὶ-έθετο-σκότος-αποκρυφὴν-αυτοῦ-·-κύκλω-αυτοῦ-η-σκηνὴ-αυτοῦ-,-σκοτεινὸν-ύδωρ-εν-νεφέλαις-αέρων-.-
12 As a lion is eager to tear his prey, And like a young lion lurking in secret places.
απὸ-τῆς-τηλαυγήσεως-ενώπιον-αυτοῦ-αι-νεφέλαι-διῆλθον-,-χάλαζα-καὶ-άνθρακες-πυρός-.-
13 Arise, O LORD, Confront him, cast him down; Deliver my life from the wicked with Your sword,
καὶ-εβρόντησεν-εξ-ουρανοῦ-κύριος-,-καὶ-ο-ύψιστος-έδωκεν-φωνὴν-αυτοῦ-·-
14 With Your hand from men, O LORD, From men of the world who have their portion in this life, And whose belly You fill with Your hidden treasure. They are satisfied with children, And leave the rest of their possession for their babes.
καὶ-εξαπέστειλεν-βέλη-καὶ-εσκόρπισεν-αυτοὺς-καὶ-αστραπὰς-επλήθυνεν-καὶ-συνετάραξεν-αυτούς-.-
15 As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness.
καὶ-ώφθησαν-αι-πηγαὶ-τῶν-υδάτων-,-καὶ-ανεκαλύφθη-τὰ-θεμέλια-τῆς-οικουμένης-απὸ-επιτιμήσεώς-σου-,-κύριε-,-απὸ-εμπνεύσεως-πνεύματος-οργῆς-σου-.-
