ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τῆς Ιουδαίας | (A psalm. Of David. This was when he was in the desert of Juda.) | Psalmus David, cum esset in deserto Idumææ. |
2 ὁ θεὸς ὁ θεός μου πρὸς σὲ ὀρθρίζω ἐδίψησέν σοι ἡ ψυχή μου ποσαπλῶς σοι ἡ σάρξ μου ἐν γῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ ἀβάτῳ καὶ ἀνύδρῳ 3 οὕτως ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ ὤφθην σοι τοῦ ἰδεῖν τὴν δύναμίν σου καὶ τὴν δόξαν σου 4 ὅτι κρεῖσσον τὸ ἔλεός σου ὑπὲρ ζωάς τὰ χείλη μου ἐπαινέσουσίν σε 5 οὕτως εὐλογήσω σε ἐν τῇ ζωῇ μου ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀρῶ τὰς χεῖράς μου 6 ὡσεὶ στέατος καὶ πιότητος ἐμπλησθείη ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ χείλη ἀγαλλιάσεως αἰνέσει τὸ στόμα μου 7 εἰ ἐμνημόνευόν σου ἐπὶ τῆς στρωμνῆς μου ἐν τοῖς ὄρθροις ἐμελέτων εἰς σέ 8 ὅτι ἐγενήθης βοηθός μου καὶ ἐν τῇ σκέπῃ τῶν πτερύγων σου ἀγαλλιάσομαι 9 ἐκολλήθη ἡ ψυχή μου ὀπίσω σου ἐμοῦ ἀντελάβετο ἡ δεξιά σου 10 αὐτοὶ δὲ εἰς μάτην ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὰ κατώτατα τῆς γῆς 11 παραδοθήσονται εἰς χεῖρας ῥομφαίας μερίδες ἀλωπέκων ἔσονται 12 ὁ δὲ βασιλεὺς εὐφρανθήσεται ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ ἐπαινεσθήσεται πᾶς ὁ ὀμνύων ἐν αὐτῷ ὅτι ἐνεφράγη στόμα λαλούντων ἄδικα | 2 O God, thou art my God; how eager my quest for thee, body athirst and soul longing for thee, 3 like some parched wilderness, where stream is none! So in the holy place, I contemplate thee, ready for the revelation of thy greatness, thy glory. 4 To win thy favour is dearer to me than life itself; my songs of praise can no more be withheld. 5 So, all my life long, I will bless thee, holding up my hands in honour of thy name; 6 my heart filled, as with some rich feast, my mouth, in joyful accents, singing thy praise. 7 My thoughts shall go out to thee at dawn, as I lie awake remembering thee, 8 and the protection thou hast given me. Gladly I take shelter under thy wings, 9 cling close to thee, borne up by thy protecting hand. 10 In vain do my enemies plot against my life, soon to be swallowed up in the depths of earth, 11 a prey to the sword, carrion for jackals! 12 The king shall triumph in God’s protection, blessed as they are ever blessed who take their vows in his name; silence shall fall on the lips that muttered treason. | 2 Deus, Deus meus, ad te de luce vigilo. Sitivit in te anima mea; quam multipliciter tibi caro mea! 3 In terra deserta, et invia, et inaquosa, sic in sancto apparui tibi, ut viderem virtutem tuam et gloriam tuam. 4 Quoniam melior est misericordia tua super vitas, labia mea laudabunt te. 5 Sic benedicam te in vita mea, et in nomine tuo levabo manus meas. 6 Sicut adipe et pinguedine repleatur anima mea, et labiis exsultationis laudabit os meum. 7 Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutinis meditabor in te. 8 Quia fuisti adjutor meus, et in velamento alarum tuarum exsultabo. 9 Adhæsit anima mea post te; me suscepit dextera tua. 10 Ipsi vero in vanum quæsierunt animam meam: introibunt in inferiora terræ; 11 tradentur in manus gladii: partes vulpium erunt. 12 Rex vero lætabitur in Deo; laudabuntur omnes qui jurant in eo: quia obstructum est os loquentium iniqua. |
