1 Načelniku pevačkom. Psalam Davidov. U Tebe se, Gospode, uzdam; nemoj me ostaviti pod sramotom doveka, po pravdi svojoj izbavi me. 2 Prigni k meni uho svoje, pohitaj, pomozi mi. Budi mi kameni grad, tvrda ograda, gde bih se spasao. 3 Jer si Ti kamena gora moja i ograda moja, imena svog radi vodi me i upravljaj mnom. 4 Izvadi me iz mreže koju mi tajno zamestiše; jer si Ti krepost moja. 5 U Tvoju ruku predajem duh svoj; izbavljao si me, Gospode, Bože istiniti! 6 Nenavidim one koji poštuju propadljive idole; ja se u Gospoda uzdam. 7 Radovaću se i veseliti se o milosti Tvojoj, kad pogledaš na moju muku, poznaš tugu duše moje, 8 Ne daš me u ruku neprijatelju, postaviš noge moje na prostranom mestu. 9 Smiluj se na me, Gospode, jer me je tuga; od jada iznemože oko moje, duša moja i srce moje; 10 Iščile u žalosti život moj, i godine moje u uzdisanju; oslabi od muke krepost moja, i kosti moje sasahnuše. 11 Od mnoštva neprijatelja svojih postadoh podsmeh i susedima svojim, i strašilo znancima svojim; koji me vide na ulici beže od mene. 12 Zaboravljen sam kao mrtav, nema me u srcima; ja sam kao razbijen sud. 13 Jer slušam grdnju od mnogih, od svuda strah, kad se dogovaraju na me, misle iščupati dušu moju. 14 A ja se, Gospode, u Tebe uzdam i velim: Ti si Bog moj. 15 U Tvojoj su ruci dani moji; otmi me iz ruku neprijatelja mojih, i od onih, koji me gone. 16 Pokaži svetlo lice svoje sluzi svom; spasi me milošću svojom. 17 Gospode! Nemoj me ostaviti pod sramotom; jer Tebe prizivam. Nek se posrame bezbožnici, neka zamuknu i padnu u pakao. 18 Neka oneme usta lažljiva, koja govore na pravednika obesno, oholo i s porugom. 19 Kako je mnogo u Tebe dobra, koje čuvaš za one koji Te se boje, i koje daješ onima koji se u Te uzdaju pred sinovima čovečijim! 20 Sakrivaš ih pod krov lica svog od buna ljudskih; sklanjaš ih pod sen od svadljivih jezika. 21 Da je blagosloven Gospod, što mi pokaza divnu milost kao da me uvede u tvrd grad! 22 Ja rekoh u smetnji svojoj: Odbačen sam od očiju Tvojih; ali Ti ču molitveni glas moj kad Te prizvah. 23 Ljubite Gospoda svi sveti Njegovi; Gospod drži veru; i uvršeno vraća onima koji postupaju oholo. 24 Budite slobodni, i neka bude jako srce vaše, svi koji se u Gospoda uzdate.

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).
To the end, a Psalm of the joy of the Resurrection, and the change, the renewing of the body to an immortal state, and not only of the Lord, but also of the whole Church.

However, they think that the divine oracles are not altogether silent on this point; for they ask to what purpose is it said, "How great is Thy goodness which Thou hast hidden for them that fear Thee," if it be not to teach us that the great and hidden sweetness of God's mercy is concealed in order that men may …

But that these perversely compassionate persons may see what is the purport of these words, "How great is the abundance of Thy sweetness, Lord, which Thou hast hidden for them that fear Thee," let them read what follows: "And Thou hast perfected it for them that hope in Thee." For what means, "Thou hast hidden it for them that fear …
