1 А҆́лефъ. А҆́зъ мꙋ́жъ ви́дѧ нищетꙋ̀ (мою̀) въ жезлѣ̀ ꙗ҆́рости є҆гѡ̀ на мѧ̀:
1 YO soy el hombre que ha visto aflicción en la vara de su enojo.
1 I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
2 поѧ́тъ мѧ̀ и҆ ѿведе́ мѧ во тьмꙋ̀, а҆ не во свѣ́тъ.
2 Guióme y llevóme en tinieblas, mas no en luz.
2 He has led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.
3 Ѻ҆ба́че на мѧ̀ ѡ҆братѝ рꙋ́кꙋ свою̀ ве́сь де́нь,
3 Ciertamente contra mí volvió y revolvió su mano todo el día.
3 Surely he turns his hand against me again and again all day long.
4 Бе́ѳъ. ѡ҆бетшѝ пло́ть мою̀ и҆ ко́жꙋ мою̀, кѡ́сти моѧ̑ сокрꙋшѝ:
4 Hizo envejecer mi carne y mi piel; quebrantó mis huesos.
4 He has made my flesh and my skin old. He has broken my bones.
5 соградѝ на мѧ̀ и҆ ѡ҆б̾ѧ̀ главꙋ̀ мою̀ и҆ ᲂу҆трꙋдѝ,
5 Edificó contra mí, y cercóme de tósigo y de trabajo.
5 He has built against me, and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.
6 въ те́мныхъ посади́ мѧ, ꙗ҆́коже мє́ртвыѧ вѣ́ка:
6 Asentóme en oscuridades, como los ya muertos de mucho tiempo.
6 He has made me dwell in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
7 Гі́мель. соградѝ на мѧ̀, и҆ не и҆зы́дꙋ, ѡ҆тѧготѝ ѡ҆кѡ́вы моѧ̑,
7 Cercóme por todos lados, y no puedo salir; agravó mis grillos.
7 He has walled me about, so that I can’t go out. He has made my chain heavy.
8 и҆ є҆гда̀ воскричꙋ̀ и҆ возопїю̀, заградѝ моли́твꙋ мою̀:
8 Aun cuando clamé y dí voces, cerro [los oídos á] mi oración.
8 Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.
9 возградѝ пꙋти̑ моѧ̑, заградѝ стєзѝ моѧ̑, возмѧтѐ.
9 Cercó mis caminos con piedra tajada, torció mis senderos.
9 He has walled up my ways with cut stone. He has made my paths crooked.
10 Да́леѳъ. Бы́сть ꙗ҆́кѡ медвѣ́дь ловѧ́й, (присѣдѧ́й мѝ) ꙗ҆́кѡ ле́въ въ сокрове́нныхъ,
10 Como oso que acecha fué para mí, como león en escondrijos.
10 He is to me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in hiding.
11 гна̀ ѿстꙋпи́вшаго, и҆ ᲂу҆поко́и мѧ̀, положи́ мѧ поги́бша:
11 Torció mis caminos, y depedazóme; tornóme asolado.
11 He has turned away my path, and pulled me in pieces. He has made me desolate.
12 напрѧжѐ лꙋ́къ сво́й, и҆ поста́ви мѧ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ зна́менїе на стрѣлѧ́нїе,
12 Su arco entesó, y púsome como blanco á la saeta.
12 He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
13 Гѐ. пꙋстѝ въ лѧ́двїѧ моѧ̑ стрѣ́лы тꙋ́ла своегѡ̀.
13 Hizo entrar en mis riñones las saetas de su aljaba.
13 He has caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my kidneys.
14 Бы́хъ въ смѣ́хъ всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ мои̑мъ, пѣ́снь и҆́хъ ве́сь де́нь.
14 Fuí escarnio á todo mi pueblo, canción de ellos todos los días.
14 I have become a derision to all my people, and their song all day long.
15 Насы́ти мѧ̀ го́рести, напои́ мѧ же́лчи
15 Hartóme de amarguras, embriagóme de ajenjos.
15 He has filled me with bitterness. He has stuffed me with wormwood.
16 Ва́ѵъ. и҆ и҆з̾ѧ̀ ка́менемъ зꙋ́бы моѧ̑, напита́ мѧ пе́пеломъ
16 Quebróme los dientes con cascajo, cubrióme de ceniza.
16 He has also broken my teeth with gravel. He has covered me with ashes.
17 и҆ ѿри́нꙋ ѿ ми́ра дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀. Забы́хъ благѡты̀
17 Y mi alma se alejó de la paz, olvidéme del bien.
17 You have removed my soul far away from peace. I forgot prosperity.
18 и҆ рѣ́хъ: поги́бе побѣ́да моѧ̀ и҆ наде́жда моѧ̀ ѿ гдⷭ҇а.
18 Y dije: Pereció mi fortaleza, y mi esperanza de Jehová.
18 I said, “My strength has perished, along with my expectation from Yahweh.”
19 За́їнъ. Помѧнѝ нищетꙋ̀ мою̀ и҆ гоне́нїе моѐ.
19 Acuérdate de mi aflicción y de mi abatimiento, del ajenjo y de la hiel.
19 Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the bitterness.
20 Го́ресть и҆ же́лчь мою̀ помѧнꙋ̀, и҆ стꙋжи́тъ во мнѣ̀ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀.
20 Tendrálo aún en memoria mi alma, porque en mí está humillada.
20 My soul still remembers them, and is bowed down within me.
21 Сїѧ̑ положꙋ̀ въ се́рдцы мое́мъ, сегѡ̀ ра́ди потерплю̀.
21 Esto reduciré á mi corazón, por lo cual esperaré.
21 This I recall to my mind; therefore I have hope.
22 И҆́ѳъ. Млⷭ҇ть гдⷭ҇нѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ѡ҆ста́ви менѐ, не сконча́шасѧ бо щедрѡ́ты є҆гѡ̀: пребыва́ѧй во ᲂу҆́трїихъ, поми́лꙋй, гдⷭ҇и, ꙗ҆́кѡ не погибо́хомъ, не сконча́шасѧ бо щедрѡ́ты твоѧ̑.
22 [Es por] la misericordia de Jehová que no somos consumidos, porque nunca decayeron sus misericordias.
22 It is because of Yahweh’s loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his mercies don’t fail.
23 Нѡ́ваѧ во ᲂу҆́трїихъ, мно́га є҆́сть вѣ́ра твоѧ̀.
23 Nuevas son cada mañana; grande es tu fidelidad.
23 They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
24 Ча́сть моѧ̀ гдⷭ҇ь, речѐ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀: сегѡ̀ ра́ди пождꙋ̀ є҆гѡ̀.
24 Mi parte es Jehová, dijo mi alma; por tanto en él esperaré.
24 “Yahweh is my portion,” says my soul. “Therefore I will hope in him.”
25 Те́ѳъ. Бл҃гъ гдⷭ҇ь надѣ́ющымсѧ на́нь:
25 Bueno es Jehová á los que en él esperan, al alma que le buscare.
25 Yahweh is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.
26 дꙋшѝ и҆́щꙋщей є҆гѡ̀ бла́го (є҆́сть), и҆ надѣ́ющейсѧ съ молча́нїемъ спⷭ҇нїѧ бж҃їѧ.
26 Bueno es esperar callando en la salud de Jehová.
26 It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Yahweh.
27 Бла́го є҆́сть мꙋ́жꙋ, є҆гда̀ во́зметъ ꙗ҆ре́мъ въ ю҆́ности свое́й:
27 Bueno es al hombre, si llevare el yugo desde su mocedad.
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28 І҆ѡ́дъ. сѧ́детъ на є҆ди́нѣ и҆ ᲂу҆мо́лкнетъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ воздви́гнꙋ на сѧ̀:
28 Sentaráse solo, y callará, porque lo llevó sobre sí.
28 Let him sit alone and keep silence, because he has laid it on him.
29 положи́тъ во пра́хѣ ᲂу҆ста̀ своѧ̑, не́гли ка́кѡ бꙋ́детъ наде́жда:
29 Pondrá su boca en el polvo, por si quizá hay esperanza.
29 Let him put his mouth in the dust, if it is so that there may be hope.
30 пода́стъ лани́тꙋ свою̀ бїю́щемꙋ, насы́титсѧ ᲂу҆кори́знъ.
30 Dará la mejilla al que le hiriere; hartaráse de afrenta.
30 Let him give his cheek to him who strikes him. Let him be filled full of reproach.
31 Ка́фъ. Ꙗ҆́кѡ не во вѣ́къ ѿри́нетъ гдⷭ҇ь,
31 Porque el Señor no desechará para siempre:
31 For the Lord will not cast off forever.
32 ꙗ҆́кѡ смири́вый поми́лꙋетъ по мно́жествꙋ млⷭ҇ти своеѧ̀,
32 Antes si afligiere, también se compadecerá según la multitud de sus misericordias.
32 For though he causes grief, yet he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
33 не ѿри́нꙋ ѿ срⷣца своегѡ̀ и҆ смирѝ сы́ны мꙋ́жескїѧ.
33 Porque no aflige ni congoja de su corazón á los hijos de los hombres.
33 For he does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.
34 Ла́медъ. Є҆́же смири́ти под̾ но́зѣ є҆гѡ̀ всѧ̑ ᲂу҆́зники земны̑ѧ,
34 Desmenuzar bajo de sus pies todos los encarcelados de la tierra,
34 To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
35 є҆́же ᲂу҆клони́ти сꙋ́дъ мꙋ́жа пред̾ лице́мъ вы́шнѧгѡ,
35 Hacer apartar el derecho del hombre ante la presencia del Altísimo,
35 to turn away the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
36 ѡ҆сꙋди́ти человѣ́ка, внегда̀ сꙋди́тисѧ є҆мꙋ̀, гдⷭ҇ь не речѐ.
36 Trastornar al hombre en su causa, el Señor no lo sabe.
36 to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord doesn’t approve.
37 Ме́мъ. Кто́ є҆сть то́й, и҆́же речѐ, и҆ бы́ти, гдⷭ҇ꙋ не повелѣ́вшꙋ;
37 ¿Quién [será] aquel que diga, que vino [algo] que el Señor no mandó?
37 Who is he who says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord doesn’t command it?
38 И҆з̾ ᲂу҆́стъ вы́шнѧгѡ не и҆зы́детъ ѕло̀ и҆ добро̀.
38 ¿De la boca del Altísimo no saldrá malo y bueno?
38 Doesn’t evil and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?
39 Что̀ возро́пщетъ человѣ́къ живꙋ́щь, мꙋ́жъ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ̀ свое́мъ;
39 ¿Por qué murmura el hombre viviente, el hombre en su pecado?
39 Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
40 Нꙋ́нъ. И҆зыска́сѧ пꙋ́ть на́шъ и҆ и҆спыта́сѧ, и҆ ѡ҆брати́мсѧ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ.
40 Escudriñemos nuestros caminos, y busquemos, y volvámonos á Jehová.
40 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Yahweh.
41 Воздви́гнемъ сердца̀ на̑ша съ рꙋка́ми къ бг҃ꙋ высо́комꙋ на нб҃сѝ.
41 Levantemos nuestros corazones con las manos á Dios en los cielos.
41 Let’s lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.
42 Мы̀ согрѣши́хомъ и҆ нече́ствовахомъ, сегѡ̀ ра́ди не поми́ловалъ є҆сѝ:
42 Nosotros nos hemos rebelado, y fuimos desleales; tú no perdonaste.
42 “We have transgressed and have rebelled. You have not pardoned.
43 Са́мехъ. покры́лъ є҆сѝ ꙗ҆́ростїю и҆ ѿгна́лъ є҆сѝ на́съ, ᲂу҆би́лъ и҆ не пощадѣ́лъ є҆сѝ:
43 Desplegaste la ira, y nos perseguiste; mataste, no perdonaste.
43 “You have covered us with anger and pursued us. You have killed. You have not pitied.
44 покры́лсѧ є҆сѝ ѡ҆́блакомъ, да не до́йдетъ къ тебѣ̀ моли́тва,
44 Te cubriste de nube, porque no pasase la oración [nuestra].
44 You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
45 сомжи́ти ѻ҆́чи моѝ и҆ ѿри́нꙋти, положи́лъ є҆сѝ на́съ посредѣ̀ люді́й.
45 Raedura y abominación nos tornaste en medio de los pueblos.
45 You have made us an off-scouring and refuse in the middle of the peoples.
46 А҆́їнъ. Ѿверзо́ша на ны̀ ᲂу҆ста̀ своѧ̑ всѝ вразѝ на́ши.
46 Todos nuestros enemigos abrieron sobre nosotros su boca.
46 “All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
47 Стра́хъ и҆ ᲂу҆́жасъ бы́сть на́мъ, надме́нїе и҆ сокрꙋше́нїе:
47 Temor y lazo fué para nosotros, asolamiento y quebrantamiento.
47 Terror and the pit have come on us, devastation and destruction.”
48 и҆схѡ́дища вѡдна́ѧ и҆злїе́тъ ѻ҆́ко моѐ ѡ҆ сокрꙋше́нїи дще́ре люді́й мои́хъ.
48 Ríos de aguas echan mis ojos, por el quebrantamiento de la hija de mi pueblo.
48 My eye runs down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49 Фѝ. Ѻ҆́ко моѐ погрѧ́знꙋ: и҆ не ᲂу҆мо́лкнꙋ, є҆́же не бы́ти ѡ҆слабле́нїю,
49 Mis ojos destilan, y no cesan, porque no hay alivio,
49 My eye pours down and doesn’t cease, without any intermission,
50 до́ндеже приклони́тсѧ и҆ ᲂу҆ви́дитъ гдⷭ҇ь съ нб҃сѐ.
50 Hasta que Jehová mire y vea desde los cielos.
50 until Yahweh looks down, and sees from heaven.
51 Ѻ҆́ко моѐ закрыва́етсѧ ѡ҆ дꙋшѝ мое́й, па́че всѣ́хъ дще́рей гра́да.
51 Mis ojos contristaron mi alma, por todas las hijas de mi ciudad.
51 My eye affects my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
52 Ца́ди. Ловѧ́ще ᲂу҆лови́ша мѧ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ вра́бїѧ вразѝ моѝ тꙋ́не:
52 Mis enemigos me dieron caza como á ave, sin por qué.
52 They have chased me relentlessly like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.
53 ᲂу҆мори́ша въ ро́вѣ жи́знь мою̀ и҆ возложи́ша на мѧ̀ ка́мень.
53 Ataron mi vida en mazmorra, pusieron piedra sobre mí.
53 They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone on me.
54 Возлїѧ́сѧ вода̀ вы́ше главы̀ моеѧ̀: рѣ́хъ: ѿринове́нъ є҆́смь.
54 Aguas de avenida vinieron sobre mi cabeza; yo dije: Muerto soy.
54 Waters flowed over my head. I said, “I am cut off.”
55 Кѡ́фъ. Призва́хъ и҆́мѧ твоѐ, гдⷭ҇и, и҆з̾ ро́ва преиспо́днѧгѡ:
55 Invoqué tu nombre, oh Jehová, desde la cárcel profunda.
55 I called on your name, Yahweh, out of the lowest dungeon.
56 гла́съ мо́й ᲂу҆слы́шалъ є҆сѝ: не покры́й ᲂу҆ше́съ твои́хъ на мольбꙋ̀ мою̀:
56 Oiste mi voz; no escondas tu oído á mi clamor, para mi respiro.
56 You heard my voice: “Don’t hide your ear from my sighing, and my cry.”
57 на по́мощь мою̀ прибли́жилсѧ є҆сѝ, въ де́нь, во́ньже призва́хъ тѧ̀, ре́клъ мѝ є҆сѝ: не бо́йсѧ.
57 Acercástete el día que te invoqué: dijiste: No temas.
57 You came near in the day that I called on you. You said, “Don’t be afraid.”
58 Ре́шъ. Сꙋди́лъ є҆сѝ, гдⷭ҇и, прю̀ дꙋшѝ моеѧ̀, и҆зба́вилъ є҆сѝ жи́знь мою̀:
58 Abogaste, Señor, la causa de mi alma; redimiste mi vida.
58 Lord, you have pleaded the causes of my soul. You have redeemed my life.
59 ви́дѣлъ є҆сѝ, гдⷭ҇и, смѧтє́нїѧ моѧ̑, разсꙋди́лъ є҆сѝ сꙋ́дъ мо́й:
59 Tú has visto, oh Jehová, mi agravio; defiende mi causa.
59 Yahweh, you have seen my wrong. Judge my cause.
60 вѣ́си всѐ ѿмще́нїе и҆́хъ и҆ всѧ̑ помышлє́нїѧ и҆́хъ на мѧ̀.
60 Tú has visto toda su venganza; todos sus pensamientos contra mí.
60 You have seen all their vengeance and all their plans against me.
61 Ши́нъ. Слы́шалъ є҆сѝ ᲂу҆кѡри́зны и҆́хъ, всѧ̑ совѣ́ты и҆́хъ на мѧ̀,
61 Tú has oído el oprobio de ellos, oh Jehová, todas sus maquinaciones contra mí;
61 You have heard their reproach, Yahweh, and all their plans against me,
62 ᲂу҆стнѣ̀ востаю́щихъ на мѧ̀ и҆ поꙋче́нїе и҆́хъ на мѧ̀ ве́сь де́нь,
62 Los dichos de los que contra mí se levantaron, y su designio contra mí todo el día.
62 the lips of those that rose up against me, and their plots against me all day long.
63 сѣдѣ́нїе и҆́хъ и҆ воста́нїе и҆́хъ: при́зри на ѻ҆́чи и҆́хъ.
63 Su sentarse, y su levantarse mira: yo soy su canción.
63 You see their sitting down and their rising up. I am their song.
64 Ѳа́ѵъ. Возда́си и҆̀мъ, гдⷭ҇и, воздаѧ́нїе по дѣлѡ́мъ рꙋкꙋ̀ и҆́хъ:
64 Dales el pago, oh Jehová, según la obra de sus manos.
64 You will pay them back, Yahweh, according to the work of their hands.
65 возда́си и҆̀мъ застꙋпле́нїе, сердца̀ моегѡ̀ трꙋ́дъ.
65 Dales ansia de corazón, tu maldición á ellos.
65 You will give them hardness of heart, your curse to them.
66 Ты̀ и҆̀хъ прожене́ши во гнѣ́вѣ и҆ потреби́ши и҆̀хъ под̾ небесе́мъ, гдⷭ҇и.
66 Persíguelos en tu furor, y quebrántalos de debajo de los cielos, oh Jehová.
66 You will pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of Yahweh.

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
