1 Начальнику хора. Не погуби. Писание Давида. 2 Подлинно ли правду говорите вы, судьи, и справедливо судите, сыны человеческие? 3 Беззаконие составляете в сердце, кладете на весы злодеяния рук ваших на земле. 4 С самого рождения отступили нечестивые, от утробы матери заблуждаются, говоря ложь. 5 Яд у них - как яд змеи, как глухого аспида, который затыкает уши свои 6 и не слышит голоса заклинателя, самого искусного в заклинаниях. 7 Боже! сокруши зубы их в устах их; разбей, Господи, челюсти львов! 8 Да исчезнут, как вода протекающая; когда напрягут стрелы, пусть они будут как переломленные. 9 Да исчезнут, как распускающаяся улитка; да не видят солнца, как выкидыш женщины. 10 Прежде нежели котлы ваши ощутят горящий терн, и свежее и обгоревшее да разнесет вихрь. 11 Возрадуется праведник, когда увидит отмщение; омоет стопы свои в крови нечестивого. 12 И скажет человек: [подлинно есть плод праведнику! итак есть Бог, судящий на земле!]

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: 58.
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).
Because then this Psalm is singing of the Passion of the Lord, see what is the title that it hath: "at the end." The end is Christ. Why hath He been called end? Not as one that consumeth, but one that consummateth....

As also David says, "The alienated are sinners from the womb: they go astray as soon as they are born." And it was on account of this that he, turning them to their Lord, prepared, in the spirit and power of Elias, a perfect people for the Lord.
