1 Пѣ́снь ѱалма̀ сынѡ́мъ коре́ѡвымъ, въ коне́цъ, ѡ҆ маеле́ѳѣ є҆́же ѿвѣща́ти, ра́зꙋма є҆ма́нꙋ і҆и҃льтѧнинꙋ,

2 Гдⷭ҇и бж҃е спⷭ҇нїѧ моегѡ̀, во днѝ воззва́хъ и҆ въ нощѝ пред̾ тобо́ю:
88:1 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Suffering of Affliction.” A contemplation by Heman, the Ezrahite. Yahweh, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before you.
3 да вни́детъ пред̾ тѧ̀ моли́тва моѧ̀, приклонѝ ᲂу҆́хо твоѐ къ моле́нїю моемꙋ̀.
88:2 Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.
4 Ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆спо́лнисѧ ѕѡ́лъ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀, и҆ живо́тъ мо́й а҆́дꙋ прибли́жисѧ.
88:3 For my soul is full of troubles. My life draws near to Sheol.
5 Привмѣне́нъ бы́хъ съ низходѧ́щими въ ро́въ: бы́хъ ꙗ҆́кѡ человѣ́къ без̾ по́мощи,
88:4 I am counted among those who go down into the pit. I am like a man who has no help,
6 въ ме́ртвыхъ свобо́дь: ꙗ҆́кѡ ꙗ҆́звеннїи спѧ́щїи во гро́бѣ, и҆́хже не помѧнꙋ́лъ є҆сѝ ктомꙋ̀, и҆ ті́и ѿ рꙋкѝ твоеѧ̀ ѿринове́ни бы́ша.
88:5 set apart among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more. They are cut off from your hand.
7 Положи́ша мѧ̀ въ ро́вѣ преиспо́днемъ, въ те́мныхъ и҆ сѣ́ни сме́ртнѣй.
88:6 You have laid me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.
8 На мнѣ̀ ᲂу҆тверди́сѧ ꙗ҆́рость твоѧ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ вѡ́лны твоѧ̑ наве́лъ є҆сѝ на мѧ̀.
88:7 Your wrath lies heavily on me. You have afflicted me with all your waves. Selah.
9 Оу҆да́лилъ є҆сѝ зна́емыхъ мои́хъ ѿ менє̀: положи́ша мѧ̀ ме́рзость себѣ̀: пре́данъ бы́хъ и҆ не и҆схожда́хъ.
88:8 You have taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can’t escape.
10 Ѻ҆́чи моѝ и҆знемого́стѣ ѿ нищеты̀: воззва́хъ къ тебѣ̀, гдⷭ҇и, ве́сь де́нь, воздѣ́хъ къ тебѣ̀ рꙋ́цѣ моѝ.
88:9 My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, Yahweh. I have spread out my hands to you.
11 Є҆да̀ ме́ртвыми твори́ши чꙋдеса̀; и҆лѝ вра́чеве воскресѧ́тъ, и҆ и҆сповѣ́дѧтсѧ тебѣ̀;
88:10 Do you show wonders to the dead? Do the departed spirits rise up and praise you? Selah.
12 Є҆да̀ повѣ́сть кто̀ во гро́бѣ млⷭ҇ть твою̀, и҆ и҆́стинꙋ твою̀ въ поги́бели;
88:11 Is your loving kindness declared in the grave? Or your faithfulness in Destruction?
13 Є҆да̀ позна̑на бꙋ́дꙋтъ во тьмѣ̀ чꙋдеса̀ твоѧ̑, и҆ пра́вда твоѧ̀ въ землѝ забве́ннѣй;
88:12 Are your wonders made known in the dark? Or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
14 И҆ а҆́зъ къ тебѣ̀, гдⷭ҇и, воззва́хъ, и҆ ᲂу҆́трѡ моли́тва моѧ̀ предвари́тъ тѧ̀.
88:13 But to you, Yahweh, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you.
15 Вскꙋ́ю, гдⷭ҇и, ѿрѣ́еши дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀; ѿвраща́еши лицѐ твоѐ ѿ менє̀;
88:14 Yahweh, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide your face from me?
16 Ни́щь є҆́смь а҆́зъ, и҆ въ трꙋдѣ́хъ ѿ ю҆́ности моеѧ̀: возне́сжесѧ смири́хсѧ и҆ и҆знемого́хъ.
88:15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up. While I suffer your terrors, I am distracted.
17 На мнѣ̀ преидо́ша гнѣ́ви твоѝ, ᲂу҆страшє́нїѧ твоѧ̑ возмꙋти́ша мѧ̀:
88:16 Your fierce wrath has gone over me. Your terrors have cut me off.
18 ѡ҆быдо́ша мѧ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ вода̀ ве́сь де́нь, ѡ҆держа́ша мѧ̀ вкꙋ́пѣ.
88:17 They came around me like water all day long. They completely engulfed me.
19 Оу҆да́лилъ є҆сѝ ѿ менє̀ дрꙋ́га и҆ и҆́скреннѧго, и҆ зна́емыхъ мои́хъ ѿ страсте́й.
88:18 You have put lover and friend far from me, and my friends into darkness.

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: 88.

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 LXXXVII)

    The Psalm which has just been sung is short, if we look to the number of its words, but of deep interest in its thoughts....The subject of song and praise in that Psalm is a city, whose citizens are we, as far as we are Christians: whence we are absent, as long as we are mortal: whither we are tending: …
