1 Въ коне́цъ, ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, внегда̀ вни́ти къ немꙋ̀ наѳа́нꙋ прⷪ҇ро́кꙋ,
·
2 є҆гда̀ вни́де къ вирсаві́и женѣ̀ ᲂу҆рі́евѣ,
·
3 Поми́лꙋй мѧ̀, бж҃е, по вели́цѣй млⷭ҇ти твое́й, и҆ по мно́жествꙋ щедро́тъ твои́хъ ѡ҆чⷭ҇ти беззако́нїе моѐ.
51:1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
4 Наипа́че ѡ҆мы́й мѧ̀ ѿ беззако́нїѧ моегѡ̀ и҆ ѿ грѣха̀ моегѡ̀ ѡ҆чⷭ҇ти мѧ̀:
51:2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
5 ꙗ҆́кѡ беззако́нїе моѐ а҆́зъ зна́ю, и҆ грѣ́хъ мо́й предо мно́ю є҆́сть вы́нꙋ.
51:3 For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.
6 Тебѣ̀ є҆ди́номꙋ согрѣши́хъ и҆ лꙋка́вое пред̾ тобо́ю сотвори́хъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ да ѡ҆правди́шисѧ во словесѣ́хъ твои́хъ и҆ побѣди́ши, внегда̀ сꙋди́ти тѝ.
51:4 Against you, and you only, I have sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight, so you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.
7 Се́ бо, въ беззако́нїихъ зача́тъ є҆́смь, и҆ во грѣсѣ́хъ роди́ мѧ ма́ти моѧ̀.
51:5 Behold, I was born in iniquity. My mother conceived me in sin.
8 Се́ бо, и҆́стинꙋ возлюби́лъ є҆сѝ, безвѣ̑стнаѧ и҆ та̑йнаѧ премⷣрости твоеѧ̀ ꙗ҆ви́лъ мѝ є҆сѝ.
51:6 Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
9 Ѡ҆кропи́ши мѧ̀ ѵ҆ссѡ́помъ, и҆ ѡ҆чи́щꙋсѧ: ѡ҆мы́еши мѧ̀, и҆ па́че снѣ́га ᲂу҆бѣлю́сѧ.
51:7 Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
10 Слꙋ́хꙋ моемꙋ̀ да́си ра́дость и҆ весе́лїе: возра́дꙋютсѧ кѡ́сти смирє́нныѧ.
51:8 Let me hear joy and gladness, that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
11 Ѿвратѝ лицѐ твоѐ ѿ грѣ̑хъ мои́хъ и҆ всѧ̑ беззакѡ́нїѧ моѧ̑ ѡ҆чⷭ҇ти.
51:9 Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities.
12 Се́рдце чи́сто сози́жди во мнѣ̀, бж҃е, и҆ дꙋ́хъ пра́въ ѡ҆бновѝ во ᲂу҆тро́бѣ мое́й.
51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.
13 Не ѿве́ржи менє̀ ѿ лица̀ твоегѡ̀ и҆ дх҃а твоегѡ̀ ст҃а́гѡ не ѿимѝ ѿ менє̀.
51:11 Don’t throw me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.
14 Возда́ждь мѝ ра́дость сп҃се́нїѧ твоегѡ̀ и҆ дх҃омъ влⷣчнимъ ᲂу҆тверди́ мѧ.
51:12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.
15 Наꙋчꙋ̀ беззакѡ́нныѧ пꙋтє́мъ твои̑мъ, и҆ нечести́вїи къ тебѣ̀ ѡ҆братѧ́тсѧ.
51:13 Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners will be converted to you.
16 И҆зба́ви мѧ̀ ѿ крове́й, бж҃е, бж҃е сп҃се́нїѧ моегѡ̀: возра́дꙋетсѧ ѧ҆зы́къ мо́й пра́вдѣ твое́й.
51:14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
17 Гдⷭ҇и, ᲂу҆стнѣ̀ моѝ ѿве́рзеши, и҆ ᲂу҆ста̀ моѧ̑ возвѣстѧ́тъ хвалꙋ̀ твою̀.
51:15 Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise.
18 Ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще бы восхотѣ́лъ є҆сѝ же́ртвы, да́лъ бы́хъ ᲂу҆́бѡ: всесожжє́нїѧ не бл҃говоли́ши.
51:16 For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.
19 Же́ртва бг҃ꙋ дꙋ́хъ сокрꙋше́нъ: се́рдце сокрꙋше́нно и҆ смире́нно бг҃ъ не ᲂу҆ничижи́тъ.
51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
20 Оу҆бл҃жѝ, гдⷭ҇и, бл҃говоле́нїемъ твои́мъ сїѡ́на, и҆ да сози́ждꙋтсѧ стѣ́ны і҆ерⷭ҇ли̑мскїѧ:
51:18 Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.
21 тогда̀ бл҃говоли́ши же́ртвꙋ пра́вды, возноше́нїе и҆ всесожега́ємаѧ: тогда̀ возложа́тъ на ѻ҆лта́рь тво́й тельцы̀.
51:19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.

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: 51.

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).

And the Three Children also offer this unto God as a great sacrifice, saying, "Nevertheless, …
