1 Načelniku pevačkom. Psalam Davidov. Gospode! S Tvoje se sile veseli car; i kako mu je velika radost što Ti pomažeš! 2 Šta mu je srce želelo, dao si mu, i molitve usta njegovih nisi odbio. 3 Jer si ga dočekao blagoslovima milosnim, metnuo si mu na glavu venac od dragog kamenja. 4 Molio Te je za život i dao si mu da mu se produže dani doveka. 5 Velika je slava njegova Tvojom pomoću; slavu si i krasotu metnuo na nj. 6 Dao si mu blagoslove doveka, razveselio si ga radošću lica svog. 7 Jer se car uzda u Gospoda i u milost Višnjeg; i ne koleba se. 8 Naći će ruka Tvoja sve neprijatelje Tvoje, naći će desnica Tvoja one koji mrze na Tebe. 9 Učinićeš ih kao peć zažarenu, kad se razgneviš; gnev će ih Gospodnji progutati, i oganj će ih proždreti. 10 Rod njihov istrebićeš sa zemlje, i seme njihovo između sinova čovečijih; 11 Jer podigoše na Tebe zlo, smisliše i ne mogoše izvršiti. 12 Jer ćeš ih metnuti za belegu, iz lukova svojih pustićeš strele u lice njihovo. 13 Podigni se Gospode, silom svojom; mi ćemo pevati i slaviti jakost Tvoju.

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).
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).
This is a well-known title; and it is not Christ who speaks; but the prophet speaks to Christ, under the form of wishing, foretelling things to come. 2. "The Lord hear Thee in the day of trouble" (ver. 1).
