1 Ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, пре́жде пома́занїѧ, Гдⷭ҇ь просвѣще́нїе моѐ и҆ сп҃си́тель мо́й, когѡ̀ ᲂу҆бою́сѧ; гдⷭ҇ь защи́титель живота̀ моегѡ̀, ѿ когѡ̀ ᲂу҆страшꙋ́сѧ;
27:1 By David. Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Внегда̀ приближа́тисѧ на мѧ̀ ѕло́бꙋющымъ, є҆́же снѣ́сти плѡ́ти моѧ̑, ѡ҆скорблѧ́ющїи мѧ̀ и҆ вразѝ моѝ, ті́и и҆знемого́ша и҆ падо́ша.
27:2 When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 А҆́ще ѡ҆полчи́тсѧ на мѧ̀ по́лкъ, не ᲂу҆бои́тсѧ се́рдце моѐ: а҆́ще воста́нетъ на мѧ̀ бра́нь, на него̀ а҆́зъ ᲂу҆пова́ю.
27:3 Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
4 Є҆ди́но проси́хъ ѿ гдⷭ҇а, то̀ взыщꙋ̀: є҆́же жи́ти мѝ въ домꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ни всѧ̑ дни̑ живота̀ моегѡ̀, зрѣ́ти мѝ красотꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ню и҆ посѣща́ти хра́мъ ст҃ы́й є҆гѡ̀.
27:4 One thing I have asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in Yahweh’s house all the days of my life, to see Yahweh’s beauty, and to inquire in his temple.
5 Ꙗ҆́кѡ скры́ мѧ въ селе́нїи свое́мъ въ де́нь ѕѡ́лъ мои́хъ, покры́ мѧ въ та́йнѣ селе́нїѧ своегѡ̀, на ка́мень вознесе́ мѧ.
27:5 For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.
6 И҆ нн҃ѣ сѐ, вознесѐ главꙋ̀ мою̀ на врагѝ моѧ̑: ѡ҆быдо́хъ и҆ пожро́хъ въ селе́нїи є҆гѡ̀ же́ртвꙋ хвале́нїѧ и҆ воскликнове́нїѧ: пою̀ и҆ воспою̀ гдⷭ҇еви.
27:6 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Yahweh.
7 Оу҆слы́ши, гдⷭ҇и, гла́съ мо́й, и҆́мже воззва́хъ, поми́лꙋй мѧ̀ и҆ ᲂу҆слы́ши мѧ̀.
27:7 Hear, Yahweh, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
8 Тебѣ̀ речѐ се́рдце моѐ: гдⷭ҇а взыщꙋ̀, взыска̀ тебѐ лицѐ моѐ, лица̀ твоегѡ̀, гдⷭ҇и, взыщꙋ̀.
27:8 When you said, “Seek my face,” my heart said to you, “I will seek your face, Yahweh.”
9 Не ѿвратѝ лица̀ твоегѡ̀ ѿ менє̀ и҆ не ᲂу҆клони́сѧ гнѣ́вомъ ѿ раба̀ твоегѡ̀: помо́щникъ мо́й бꙋ́ди, не ѿри́ни менѐ и҆ не ѡ҆ста́ви менѐ, бж҃е, сп҃си́телю мо́й.
27:9 Don’t hide your face from me. Don’t put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don’t abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
10 Ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆те́цъ мо́й и҆ ма́ти моѧ̀ ѡ҆ста́виста мѧ̀, гдⷭ҇ь же воспрїѧ́тъ мѧ̀.
27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will take me up.
11 Законоположи́ ми, гдⷭ҇и, въ пꙋтѝ твое́мъ, и҆ наста́ви мѧ̀ на стезю̀ пра́вꙋю вра̑гъ мои́хъ ра́ди.
27:11 Teach me your way, Yahweh. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.
12 Не преда́ждь менѐ въ дꙋ́шы стꙋжа́ющихъ мѝ: ꙗ҆́кѡ воста́ша на мѧ̀ свидѣ́телє непра́веднїи, и҆ солга̀ непра́вда себѣ̀.
27:12 Don’t deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out cruelty.
13 Вѣ́рꙋю ви́дѣти бл҃га̑ѧ гдⷭ҇нѧ на землѝ живы́хъ.
27:13 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living.
14 Потерпѝ гдⷭ҇а, мꙋжа́йсѧ, и҆ да крѣпи́тсѧ се́рдце твоѐ, и҆ потерпѝ гдⷭ҇а.
27:14 Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh.

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: 27.

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).
