1 Ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, є҆гда̀ гонѧ́ше є҆го̀ а҆вессалѡ́мъ сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀, Гдⷭ҇и, ᲂу҆слы́ши моли́твꙋ мою̀, внꙋшѝ моле́нїе моѐ во и҆́стинѣ твое́й, ᲂу҆слы́ши мѧ̀ въ пра́вдѣ твое́й:
143:1 Salmo de David. OH Jehová, oye mi oración, escucha mis ruegos: respóndeme por tu verdad, por tu justicia.
143:1 A Psalm by David. Hear my prayer, Yahweh. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.
2 и҆ не вни́ди въ сꙋ́дъ съ рабо́мъ твои́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ѡ҆правди́тсѧ пред̾ тобо́ю всѧ́къ живы́й.
143:2 Y no entres en juicio con tu siervo; porque no se justificará delante de ti ningún viviente.
143:2 Don’t enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
3 Ꙗ҆́кѡ погна̀ вра́гъ дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀: смири́лъ є҆́сть въ зе́млю живо́тъ мо́й: посади́лъ мѧ̀ є҆́сть въ те́мныхъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ мє́ртвыѧ вѣ́ка.
143:3 Porque ha perseguido el enemigo mi alma; ha postrado en tierra mi vida; hame hecho habitar en tinieblas como los ya muertos.
143:3 For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
4 И҆ ᲂу҆ны̀ во мнѣ̀ дꙋ́хъ мо́й, во мнѣ̀ смѧте́сѧ се́рдце моѐ.
143:4 Y mi espíritu se angustió dentro de mí; pasmóse mi corazón.
143:4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
5 Помѧнꙋ́хъ дни̑ дрє́внїѧ, поꙋчи́хсѧ во всѣ́хъ дѣ́лѣхъ твои́хъ, въ творе́нїихъ рꙋкꙋ̀ твоє́ю поꙋча́хсѧ.
143:5 Acordéme de los días antiguos; meditaba en todas tus obras; reflexionaba en las obras de tus manos.
143:5 I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
6 Воздѣ́хъ къ тебѣ̀ рꙋ́цѣ моѝ: дꙋша̀ моѧ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ землѧ̀ безво́днаѧ тебѣ̀.
143:6 Extendí mis manos á ti; mi alma á ti como la tierra sedienta. (Selah.)
143:6 I spread out my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.
7 Ско́рѡ ᲂу҆слы́ши мѧ̀, гдⷭ҇и, и҆счезѐ дꙋ́хъ мо́й: не ѿвратѝ лица̀ твоегѡ̀ ѿ менє̀, и҆ ᲂу҆подо́блюсѧ низходѧ́щымъ въ ро́въ.
143:7 Respóndeme presto, oh Jehová que desmaya mi espíritu: no escondas de mí tu rostro, y venga yo á ser semejante á los que descienden á la sepultura.
143:7 Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don’t hide your face from me, so that I don’t become like those who go down into the pit.
8 Слы́шанꙋ сотворѝ мнѣ̀ заꙋ́тра млⷭ҇ть твою̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ на тѧ̀ ᲂу҆пова́хъ: скажѝ мнѣ̀, гдⷭ҇и, пꙋ́ть, во́ньже пойдꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ къ тебѣ̀ взѧ́хъ дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀.
143:8 Hazme oir por la mañana tu misericordia, porque en ti he confiado: hazme saber el camino por donde ande, porque á ti he alzado mi alma.
143:8 Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
9 И҆зми́ мѧ ѿ вра̑гъ мои́хъ, гдⷭ҇и, къ тебѣ̀ прибѣго́хъ.
143:9 Líbrame de mis enemigos, oh Jehová: á ti me acojo.
143:9 Deliver me, Yahweh, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me.
10 Наꙋчи́ мѧ твори́ти во́лю твою̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ є҆сѝ бг҃ъ мо́й: дх҃ъ тво́й бл҃гі́й наста́витъ мѧ̀ на зе́млю пра́вꙋ.
143:10 Enséñame á hacer tu voluntad, porque tú eres mi Dios: tu buen espíritu me guíe á tierra de rectitud.
143:10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
11 И҆́мене твоегѡ̀ ра́ди, гдⷭ҇и, живи́ши мѧ̀ пра́вдою твое́ю: и҆зведе́ши ѿ печа́ли дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀:
143:11 Por tu nombre, oh Jehová me vivificarás: por tu justicia, sacarás mi alma de angustia.
143:11 Revive me, Yahweh, for your name’s sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
12 и҆ млⷭ҇тїю твое́ю потреби́ши врагѝ моѧ̑ и҆ погꙋби́ши всѧ̑ стꙋжа́ющыѧ дꙋшѝ мое́й: ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ ра́бъ тво́й є҆́смь.
143:12 Y por tu misericordia disiparás mis enemigos, y destruirás todos los adversarios de mi alma: porque yo soy tu siervo.
143:12 In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, for I am your servant.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 143.

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXLII)

    "With my voice have I cried unto the Lord" (ver. 1). It were enough to say, "with voice:" not for nothing perhaps has "my" been added. For many cry unto the Lord, not with their own voice, but with the voice of their body.

    Forgive her, O Lord, forgive her, I beseech Thee; "enter not into judgment" with her.

    … the Son is holy, for to the creature holiness was brought in from without, but to the Spirit holiness is the fulfilment of nature, and it is for this reason that He is described not as being sanctified, but as sanctifying. He is called good, as the Father is good, and He who was begotten of the Good is good, …
