Ψαλμοί 139
1 εἰς τὸ τέλος ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ κύριε ἐδοκίμασάς με καὶ ἔγνως με
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2 σὺ ἔγνως τὴν καθέδραν μου καὶ τὴν ἔγερσίν μου σὺ συνῆκας τοὺς διαλογισμούς μου ἀπὸ μακρόθεν
Thou knowest my downsitting and my uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3 τὴν τρίβον μου καὶ τὴν σχοῖνόν μου σὺ ἐξιχνίασας καὶ πάσας τὰς ὁδούς μου προεῖδες
Thou dost scrutinize my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4 ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν λόγος ἐν γλώσσῃ μου
For there is not a word on my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5 ἰδού κύριε σὺ ἔγνως πάντα τὰ ἔσχατα καὶ τὰ ἀρχαῖα σὺ ἔπλασάς με καὶ ἔθηκας ἐπ’ ἐμὲ τὴν χεῖρά σου
Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.
6 ἐθαυμαστώθη ἡ γνῶσίς σου ἐξ ἐμοῦ ἐκραταιώθη οὐ μὴ δύνωμαι πρὸς αὐτήν
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain to it.
7 ποῦ πορευθῶ ἀπὸ τοῦ πνεύματός σου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου σου ποῦ φύγω
Where shall I go from thy spirit? or where shall I flee from thy presence?
If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. (Sheol h7585)
9 ἐὰν ἀναλάβοιμι τὰς πτέρυγάς μου κατ’ ὄρθρον καὶ κατασκηνώσω εἰς τὰ ἔσχατα τῆς θαλάσσης
If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 καὶ γὰρ ἐκεῖ ἡ χείρ σου ὁδηγήσει με καὶ καθέξει με ἡ δεξιά σου
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 καὶ εἶπα ἄρα σκότος καταπατήσει με καὶ νὺξ φωτισμὸς ἐν τῇ τρυφῇ μου
If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
12 ὅτι σκότος οὐ σκοτισθήσεται ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ νὺξ ὡς ἡμέρα φωτισθήσεται ὡς τὸ σκότος αὐτῆς οὕτως καὶ τὸ φῶς αὐτῆς
Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
13 ὅτι σὺ ἐκτήσω τοὺς νεφρούς μου κύριε ἀντελάβου μου ἐκ γαστρὸς μητρός μου
For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
14 ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ὅτι φοβερῶς ἐθαυμαστώθην θαυμάσια τὰ ἔργα σου καὶ ἡ ψυχή μου γινώσκει σφόδρα
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul well knoweth
15 οὐκ ἐκρύβη τὸ ὀστοῦν μου ἀπὸ σοῦ ὃ ἐποίησας ἐν κρυφῇ καὶ ἡ ὑπόστασίς μου ἐν τοῖς κατωτάτοις τῆς γῆς
My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and skilfully formed in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 τὸ ἀκατέργαστόν μου εἴδοσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ βιβλίον σου πάντες γραφήσονται ἡμέρας πλασθήσονται καὶ οὐθεὶς ἐν αὐτοῖς
Thy eyes saw my substance, not yet formed; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
17 ἐμοὶ δὲ λίαν ἐτιμήθησαν οἱ φίλοι σου ὁ θεός λίαν ἐκραταιώθησαν αἱ ἀρχαὶ αὐτῶν
How precious also are thy thoughts to me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18 ἐξαριθμήσομαι αὐτούς καὶ ὑπὲρ ἄμμον πληθυνθήσονται ἐξηγέρθην καὶ ἔτι εἰμὶ μετὰ σοῦ
If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
19 ἐὰν ἀποκτείνῃς ἁμαρτωλούς ὁ θεός ἄνδρες αἱμάτων ἐκκλίνατε ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ
Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
20 ὅτι ἐρεῖς εἰς διαλογισμόν λήμψονται εἰς ματαιότητα τὰς πόλεις σου
For they speak against thee wickedly, and thy enemies take thy name in vain.
21 οὐχὶ τοὺς μισοῦντάς σε κύριε ἐμίσησα καὶ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἐχθροῖς σου ἐξετηκόμην
Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22 τέλειον μῖσος ἐμίσουν αὐτούς εἰς ἐχθροὺς ἐγένοντό μοι
I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them my enemies.
23 δοκίμασόν με ὁ θεός καὶ γνῶθι τὴν καρδίαν μου ἔτασόν με καὶ γνῶθι τὰς τρίβους μου
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24 καὶ ἰδὲ εἰ ὁδὸς ἀνομίας ἐν ἐμοί καὶ ὁδήγησόν με ἐν ὁδῷ αἰωνίᾳ
And see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
