< Ψαλμοί 13 >
1 εἰς τὸ τέλος ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. How long, O Lord? Will you forget me until the end? How long will you turn your face away from me?
2 ἕως πότε κύριε ἐπιλήσῃ μου εἰς τέλος ἕως πότε ἀποστρέψεις τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ
How long can I take counsel in my soul, sorrowing in my heart throughout the day?
3 ἕως τίνος θήσομαι βουλὰς ἐν ψυχῇ μου ὀδύνας ἐν καρδίᾳ μου ἡμέρας ἕως πότε ὑψωθήσεται ὁ ἐχθρός μου ἐπ’ ἐμέ
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
4 ἐπίβλεψον εἰσάκουσόν μου κύριε ὁ θεός μου φώτισον τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου μήποτε ὑπνώσω εἰς θάνατον
Look upon me and listen to me, O Lord my God. Enlighten my eyes, lest I fall asleep forever in death,
5 μήποτε εἴπῃ ὁ ἐχθρός μου ἴσχυσα πρὸς αὐτόν οἱ θλίβοντές με ἀγαλλιάσονται ἐὰν σαλευθῶ
lest at any time my enemy may say, “I have prevailed against him.” Those who trouble me will exult, if I have been disturbed.
6 ἐγὼ δὲ ἐπὶ τῷ ἐλέει σου ἤλπισα ἀγαλλιάσεται ἡ καρδία μου ἐπὶ τῷ σωτηρίῳ σου ᾄσω τῷ κυρίῳ τῷ εὐεργετήσαντί με καὶ ψαλῶ τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου τοῦ ὑψίστου
But I have hoped in your mercy. My heart will exult in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, who assigns good things to me. And I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord Most High.
