< Псалтирь 54 >
1 В конец, в песнех разума Давиду, внегда приити Зифеем и рещи Саулови: не се ли, Давид скрыся в нас? Боже, во имя Твое спаси мя и в силе Твоей суди ми.
“To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.
2 Боже, услыши молитву мою, внуши глаголы уст моих:
O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 яко чуждии восташа на мя, и крепцыи взыскаша душу мою, и не предложиша Бога пред собою.
For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)
4 Се бо, Бог помогает ми, и Господь заступник души моей:
Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.
5 отвратит злая врагом моим: истиною Твоею потреби их.
He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.
6 Волею пожру Тебе, исповемся имени Твоему, Господи, яко благо:
I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.
7 яко от всякия печали избавил мя еси, и на враги моя воззре око мое.
For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.
