< Ψαλμοί 86 >
1 προσευχὴ τῷ Δαυιδ κλῖνον κύριε τὸ οὖς σου καὶ ἐπάκουσόν μου ὅτι πτωχὸς καὶ πένης εἰμὶ ἐγώ
Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
2 φύλαξον τὴν ψυχήν μου ὅτι ὅσιός εἰμι σῶσον τὸν δοῦλόν σου ὁ θεός μου τὸν ἐλπίζοντα ἐπὶ σέ
Preserve my soul, for I am devout. O thou my God, save thy servant who trusts in thee.
3 ἐλέησόν με κύριε ὅτι πρὸς σὲ κεκράξομαι ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν
Be merciful to me, O Lord, for to thee do I cry all the day long.
4 εὔφρανον τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ δούλου σου ὅτι πρὸς σέ κύριε ἦρα τὴν ψυχήν μου
Rejoice the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 ὅτι σύ κύριε χρηστὸς καὶ ἐπιεικὴς καὶ πολυέλεος πᾶσι τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις σε
For thou, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in loving kindness to all those who call upon thee.
6 ἐνώτισαι κύριε τὴν προσευχήν μου καὶ πρόσχες τῇ φωνῇ τῆς δεήσεώς μου
Give ear, O Jehovah, to my prayer, and hearken to the voice of my supplications.
7 ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεώς μου ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σέ ὅτι εἰσήκουσάς μου
In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee, for thou will answer me.
8 οὐκ ἔστιν ὅμοιός σοι ἐν θεοῖς κύριε καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν κατὰ τὰ ἔργα σου
There is none like thee among the gods, O Lord, nor like thy works.
9 πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ὅσα ἐποίησας ἥξουσιν καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν ἐνώπιόν σου κύριε καὶ δοξάσουσιν τὸ ὄνομά σου
All nations whom thou have made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and they shall glorify thy name.
10 ὅτι μέγας εἶ σὺ καὶ ποιῶν θαυμάσια σὺ εἶ ὁ θεὸς μόνος ὁ μέγας
For thou are great, and do wondrous things. Thou alone are God.
11 ὁδήγησόν με κύριε τῇ ὁδῷ σου καὶ πορεύσομαι ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου εὐφρανθήτω ἡ καρδία μου τοῦ φοβεῖσθαι τὸ ὄνομά σου
Teach me thy way, O Jehovah, I will walk in thy truth. Unite my heart to fear thy name.
12 ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι κύριε ὁ θεός μου ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου καὶ δοξάσω τὸ ὄνομά σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
13 ὅτι τὸ ἔλεός σου μέγα ἐπ’ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐρρύσω τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐξ ᾅδου κατωτάτου (Sheol )
For great is thy loving kindness toward me, and thou have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. (Sheol )
14 ὁ θεός παράνομοι ἐπανέστησαν ἐπ’ ἐμέ καὶ συναγωγὴ κραταιῶν ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου καὶ οὐ προέθεντό σε ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν
O God, the proud have risen up against me, and a company of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set thee before them.
15 καὶ σύ κύριε ὁ θεός οἰκτίρμων καὶ ἐλεήμων μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος καὶ ἀληθινός
But thou, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth.
16 ἐπίβλεψον ἐπ’ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐλέησόν με δὸς τὸ κράτος σου τῷ παιδί σου καὶ σῶσον τὸν υἱὸν τῆς παιδίσκης σου
O turn to me, and have mercy upon me. Give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
17 ποίησον μετ’ ἐμοῦ σημεῖον εἰς ἀγαθόν καὶ ἰδέτωσαν οἱ μισοῦντές με καὶ αἰσχυνθήτωσαν ὅτι σύ κύριε ἐβοήθησάς μοι καὶ παρεκάλεσάς με
Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it, and be put to shame, because thou, Jehovah, have helped me, and comforted me.
