1 Въ коне́цъ, ѡ҆ і҆дїѳꙋ́мѣ, ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ 2 Не бг҃ꙋ ли повине́тсѧ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀; ѿ тогѡ́ бо сп҃се́нїе моѐ. 3 И҆́бо то́й бг҃ъ мо́й и҆ сп҃съ мо́й, застꙋ́пникъ мо́й: не подви́жꙋсѧ наипа́че. 4 Доко́лѣ належитѐ на человѣ́ка; ᲂу҆бива́ете всѝ вы̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ стѣнѣ̀ преклоне́нѣ и҆ ѡ҆пло́тꙋ возринове́нꙋ. 5 Ѻ҆ба́че цѣ́нꙋ мою̀ совѣща́ша ѿри́нꙋти, теко́ша въ жа́жди: ᲂу҆сты̑ свои́ми благословлѧ́хꙋ, и҆ се́рдцемъ свои́мъ кленѧ́хꙋ. 6 Ѻ҆ба́че бг҃ови повини́сѧ, дꙋшѐ моѧ̀: ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ тогѡ̀ терпѣ́нїе моѐ. 7 И҆́бо то́й бг҃ъ мо́й и҆ сп҃съ мо́й, застꙋ́пникъ мо́й: не преселю́сѧ. 8 Ѡ҆ бз҃ѣ сп҃се́нїе моѐ и҆ сла́ва моѧ̀: бг҃ъ по́мощи моеѧ̀, и҆ ᲂу҆пова́нїе моѐ на бг҃а. 9 Оу҆пова́йте на него̀, ве́сь со́нмъ люді́й: и҆злїѧ́йте пред̾ ни́мъ сердца̀ ва̑ша, ꙗ҆́кѡ бг҃ъ помо́щникъ на́шъ. 10 Ѻ҆ба́че сꙋ́етни сы́нове человѣ́честїи, лжи́ви сы́нове человѣ́честїи въ мѣ́рилѣхъ є҆́же непра́вдовати: ті́и ѿ сꙋеты̀ вкꙋ́пѣ. 11 Не ᲂу҆пова́йте на непра́вдꙋ, и҆ на восхище́нїе не жела́йте: бога́тство а҆́ще тече́тъ, не прилага́йте се́рдца. 12 Є҆ди́ною гл҃а бг҃ъ, дво́ѧ сїѧ̑ слы́шахъ, занѐ держа́ва бж҃їѧ, 13 и҆ твоѧ̀, гдⷭ҇и, млⷭ҇ть: ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ возда́си комꙋ́ждо по дѣлѡ́мъ є҆гѡ̀.

Notes on this text (4)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
- Psalms are numbered as in the Septuagint (Psalm 50 = Psalm 51 in English Bibles); verse numbers follow the Russian Synodal Bible, where a psalm's title is verse 1 (or 1–2).
- Psalms 13, 71, 92, 127 and 129 divide their verses differently from the Russian Synodal Bible, so a few verse numbers there do not match it; the line "The songs of David, son of Jesse, are ended" opens Psalm 72 (with its title) instead of closing Psalm 71.
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).

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: 62.
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).
The title of it doth not detain us. For it is "Unto the end, in hymns, to David himself. "In hymns," to wit in praises. "Unto the end," to wit unto Christ....But the voice in this Psalm (if we are among the members of Him, and in the Body, even as upon His exhortation we have the boldness to trust) …

For [the Scripture] saith in a certain place, "This people honoureth Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me." And again: "They bless with their mouth, but curse with their heart." And again it saith, "They loved Him with their mouth, and lied to Him with their tongue; but their heart was not right with Him, neither …
Also unto Thee, O God, belongeth mercy: for Thou wilt render unto every man according to his works." Now the expression, "Once hath He spoken," is to be understood as meaning "immovably," that is, unchangeably hath He spoken, inasmuch as He knows unchangeably all things which shall be, and all things which He will do.

Hast thou not heard, "If riches increase, set not your heart upon them?" Lo, thou art getting, thou art disquieted, not fruitlessly indeed, still in vain.
