1 Начальнику хора. На струнных орудиях. Учение Давида, 2 когда пришли Зифеи и сказали Саулу: "не у нас ли скрывается Давид?" 3 Боже! именем Твоим спаси меня, и силою Твоею суди меня. 4 Боже! услышь молитву мою, внемли словам уст моих, 5 ибо чужие восстали на меня, и сильные ищут души моей; они не имеют Бога пред собою. 6 Вот, Бог помощник мой; Господь подкрепляет душу мою. 7 Он воздаст за зло врагам моим; истиною Твоею истреби их. 8 Я усердно принесу Тебе жертву, прославлю имя Твое, Господи, ибо оно благо, 9 ибо Ты избавил меня от всех бед, и на врагов моих смотрело око мое.

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). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 54.
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).
Of this Psalm we undertake to treat with you, as far as the Lord supplieth us. A brother biddeth us that we may have the will, and prayeth that we may have the power.
