1 Ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, въ воспомина́нїе ѡ҆ сꙋббѡ́тѣ,
·
2 Гдⷭ҇и, да не ꙗ҆́ростїю твое́ю ѡ҆бличи́ши менѐ, нижѐ гнѣ́вомъ твои́мъ нака́жеши менѐ:
38:1 A Psalm by David, for a memorial. Yahweh, don’t rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.
3 ꙗ҆́кѡ стрѣ́лы твоѧ̑ ᲂу҆нзо́ша во мнѣ̀, и҆ ᲂу҆тверди́лъ є҆сѝ на мнѣ̀ рꙋ́кꙋ твою̀.
38:2 For your arrows have pierced me, your hand presses hard on me.
4 Нѣ́сть и҆сцѣле́нїѧ въ пло́ти мое́й ѿ лица̀ гнѣ́ва твоегѡ̀, нѣ́сть ми́ра въ косте́хъ мои́хъ ѿ лица̀ грѣ̑хъ мои́хъ.
38:3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation, neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
5 Ꙗ҆́кѡ беззакѡ́нїѧ моѧ̑ превзыдо́ша главꙋ̀ мою̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ бре́мѧ тѧ́жкое ѡ҆тѧготѣ́ша на мнѣ̀.
38:4 For my iniquities have gone over my head. As a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
6 Возсмердѣ́ша и҆ согни́ша ра̑ны моѧ̑, ѿ лица̀ безꙋ́мїѧ моегѡ̀.
38:5 My wounds are loathsome and corrupt because of my foolishness.
7 Пострада́хъ и҆ слѧко́хсѧ до конца̀, ве́сь де́нь сѣ́тꙋѧ хожда́хъ:
38:6 I am in pain and bowed down greatly. I go mourning all day long.
8 ꙗ҆́кѡ лѧ́двїѧ моѧ̑ напо́лнишасѧ порꙋга́нїй, и҆ нѣ́сть и҆сцѣле́нїѧ въ пло́ти мое́й.
38:7 For my waist is filled with burning. There is no soundness in my flesh.
9 Ѡ҆ѕло́бленъ бы́хъ и҆ смири́хсѧ до ѕѣла̀, рыка́хъ ѿ воздыха́нїѧ се́рдца моегѡ̀.
38:8 I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart.
10 Гдⷭ҇и, пред̾ тобо́ю всѐ жела́нїе моѐ, и҆ воздыха́нїе моѐ ѿ тебє̀ не ᲂу҆таи́сѧ.
38:9 Lord, all my desire is before you. My groaning is not hidden from you.
11 Се́рдце моѐ смѧте́сѧ, ѡ҆ста́ви мѧ̀ си́ла моѧ̀, и҆ свѣ́тъ ѻ҆́чїю моє́ю, и҆ то́й нѣ́сть со мно́ю.
38:10 My heart throbs. My strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.
12 Дрꙋ́зи моѝ и҆ и҆́скреннїи моѝ прѧ́мѡ мнѣ̀ прибли́жишасѧ и҆ ста́ша.
38:11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague. My kinsmen stand far away.
13 И҆ бли́жнїи моѝ ѿдале́че менє̀ ста́ша, и҆ нꙋжда́хꙋсѧ и҆́щꙋщїи дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀: и҆ и҆́щꙋщїи ѕла̑ѧ мнѣ̀ глаго́лахꙋ сꙋ́єтнаѧ, и҆ льсти̑внымъ ве́сь де́нь поꙋча́хꙋсѧ.
38:12 They also who seek after my life lay snares. Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and meditate deceits all day long.
14 А҆́зъ же ꙗ҆́кѡ глꙋ́хъ не слы́шахъ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́мъ не ѿверза́ѧй ᲂу҆́стъ свои́хъ:
38:13 But I, as a deaf man, don’t hear. I am as a mute man who doesn’t open his mouth.
15 и҆ бы́хъ ꙗ҆́кѡ человѣ́къ не слы́шай и҆ не и҆мы́й во ᲂу҆стѣ́хъ свои́хъ ѡ҆бличе́нїѧ.
38:14 Yes, I am as a man who doesn’t hear, in whose mouth are no reproofs.
16 Ꙗ҆́кѡ на тѧ̀, гдⷭ҇и, ᲂу҆пова́хъ, ты̀ ᲂу҆слы́шиши, гдⷭ҇и бж҃е мо́й.
38:15 For I hope in you, Yahweh. You will answer, Lord my God.
17 Ꙗ҆́кѡ рѣ́хъ: да не когда̀ пора́дꙋютмисѧ вразѝ моѝ: и҆ внегда̀ подвижа́тисѧ нога́мъ мои̑мъ, на мѧ̀ велерѣ́чеваша.
38:16 For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.”
18 Ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ на ра̑ны гото́въ, и҆ болѣ́знь моѧ̀ предо мно́ю є҆́сть вы́нꙋ.
38:17 For I am ready to fall. My pain is continually before me.
19 Ꙗ҆́кѡ беззако́нїе моѐ а҆́зъ возвѣщꙋ̀ и҆ попекꙋ́сѧ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ̀ мое́мъ.
38:18 For I will declare my iniquity. I will be sorry for my sin.
20 Врази́ же моѝ живꙋ́тъ и҆ ᲂу҆крѣпи́шасѧ па́че менє̀, и҆ ᲂу҆мно́жишасѧ ненави́дѧщїи мѧ̀ без̾ пра́вды:
38:19 But my enemies are vigorous and many. Those who hate me without reason are numerous.
21 воздаю́щїи мѝ ѕла̑ѧ воз̾ блага̑ѧ ѡ҆болга́хꙋ мѧ̀, занѐ гонѧ́хъ благосты́ню.
38:20 They who give evil for good are also adversaries to me, because I follow what is good.
22 Не ѡ҆ста́ви менѐ, гдⷭ҇и бж҃е мо́й, не ѿстꙋпѝ ѿ менє̀:
38:21 Don’t forsake me, Yahweh. My God, don’t be far from me.
23 вонмѝ въ по́мощь мою̀, гдⷭ҇и сп҃се́нїѧ моегѡ̀.
38:22 Hurry to help me, Lord, my salvation.

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: 38.

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 XXXVII)

    With terror do they hear of the coming of the last day, who will not be secure by living well: and who fain would live ill, long.

  2. Quotes verse 38:14 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XIII)

    The Psalmist says, And I became as a man that heareth not; and in whose mouth are no reproofs; and again, But I was as a deaf man and heard not; and as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
