1 Начальнику хора. На духовых орудиях. Псалом Давида. 2 Услышь, Господи, слова мои, уразумей помышления мои. 3 Внемли гласу вопля моего, Царь мой и Бог мой! ибо я к Тебе молюсь. 4 Господи! рано услышь голос мой, - рано предстану пред Тобою, и буду ожидать, 5 ибо Ты Бог, не любящий беззакония; у Тебя не водворится злой; 6 нечестивые не пребудут пред очами Твоими: Ты ненавидишь всех, делающих беззаконие. 7 Ты погубишь говорящих ложь; кровожадного и коварного гнушается Господь. 8 А я, по множеству милости Твоей, войду в дом Твой, поклонюсь святому храму Твоему в страхе Твоем. 9 Господи! путеводи меня в правде Твоей, ради врагов моих; уровняй предо мною путь Твой. 10 Ибо нет в устах их истины: сердце их - пагуба, гортань их - открытый гроб, языком своим льстят. 11 Осуди их, Боже, да падут они от замыслов своих; по множеству нечестия их, отвергни их, ибо они возмутились против Тебя. 12 И возрадуются все уповающие на Тебя, вечно будут ликовать, и Ты будешь покровительствовать им; и будут хвалиться Тобою любящие имя Твое. 13 Ибо Ты благословляешь праведника, Господи; благоволением, как щитом, венчаешь его.

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), with the titles counted as verses.
- The Old Testament is translated mainly from the Hebrew, with many Septuagint readings added; in this digital text those additions (and the Septuagint psalm titles) are in square brackets [ ].
- Includes the books not found in the Hebrew Bible (Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, Letter of Jeremiah, 1–3 Maccabees, 2 and 3 Esdras, Prayer of Manasseh), as in the Synodal editions.

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).
The title of the Psalm is, "For her who receiveth the inheritance." The Church then is signified, who receiveth for her inheritance eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ; that she may possess God Himself, in cleaving to whom she may be blessed, according to that, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall possess the earth." What earth, but that …

For when I am wicked, to confess to Thee is naught but to be dissatisfied with myself; but when I am truly devout, it is naught but not to attribute it to myself, because Thou, O Lord, dost "bless the righteous;" but first Thou justifiest him "ungodly." My confession, therefore, O my God, in Thy sight, is made unto Thee …

For the prophet makes mention thereof, neither did he call them merely a sepulchre, "but their throat an open sepulchre." Such are many men now also, decking themselves indeed outwardly, but full of iniquity within.

… and having accused him before philosophers as judges, and having assembled an audience of Gentiles, lest if Christians gave judgment, the judges might be thought to shew favour,--Tell us what thou preachest, said Archelaus to Manes. And he, whose mouth was as an open sepulchre, began first with blasphemy against the Maker of all things, saying, The God of …

"Thou hatest, O Lord," saith he, "all them that work iniquity." And immediately after, "Thou shalt destroy all them that speak a lie." Either "iniquity" and "a lie" are upon a level; or, "Thou shalt destroy," is more than "Thou hatest." For he who is held in hatred, is not immediately punished by destruction.
