Notes on this text (3)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).

WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 «Προσευχή του τεθλιμμένου, όταν αδημονή, και εκχέη το παράπονον αυτού ενώπιον του Κυρίου.» Κύριε, εισάκουσον της προσευχής μου, και η κραυγή μου ας έλθη προς σε.
1 Oración del pobre, cuando estuviere angustiado, y delante de Jehová derramare su lamento. JEHOVÁ, oye mi oración, y venga mi clamor á ti.
1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before Yahweh. Hear my prayer, Yahweh! Let my cry come to you.
2 Μη κρύψης το πρόσωπόν σου απ' εμού· καθ' ην ημέραν θλίβομαι, κλίνον προς εμέ το ωτίον σου· καθ' ην ημέραν σε επικαλούμαι, ταχέως επάκουέ μου.
2 No escondas de mí tu rostro: en el día de mi angustia inclina á mí tu oído; el día que [te] invocare, apresúrate á responderme.
2 Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
3 Διότι εξέλιπον ως καπνός αι ημέραι μου, και τα οστά μου ως φρύγανον κατεξηράνθησαν.
3 Porque mis días se han consumido como humo; y mis huesos cual tizón están quemados.
3 For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.
4 Επληγώθη η καρδία μου και εξηράνθη ως χόρτος, ώστε ελησμόνησα να τρώγω τον άρτον μου.
4 Mi corazón fué herido, y secóse como la hierba; por lo cual me olvidé de comer mi pan.
4 My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
5 Από φωνής του στεναγμού μου εκολλήθησαν τα οστά μου εις το δέρμα μου.
5 Por la voz de mi gemido mis huesos se han pegado á mi carne.
5 By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
6 Κατεστάθην όμοιος του ερημικού πελεκάνος· έγεινα ως νυκτοκόραξ εν ταις ερήμοις.
6 Soy semejante al pelícano del desierto; soy como el buho de las soledades.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
7 Αγρυπνώ και είμαι ως στρουθίον μονάζον επί δώματος.
7 Velo, y soy como el pájaro solitario sobre el tejado.
7 I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8 Όλην την ημέραν με ονειδίζουσιν οι εχθροί μου· οι μαινόμενοι ομνύουσι κατ' εμού.
8 Cada día me afrentan mis enemigos; los que se enfurecen contra mí, hanse contra mí conjurado.
8 My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
9 Διότι έφαγον στάκτην ως άρτον και συνεκέρασα με δάκρυα το ποτόν μου,
9 Por lo que como la ceniza á manera de pan, y mi bebida mezclo con lloro,
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
10 Εξ αιτίας της οργής σου και της αγανακτήσεώς σου· διότι σηκώσας με έρριψας κάτω.
10 A causa de tu enojo y de tu ira; pues me alzaste, y me has arrojado.
10 because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
11 Αι ημέραι μου παρέρχονται ως σκιά, και εγώ εξηράνθην ως χόρτος.
11 Mis días son como la sombra que se va; y heme secado como la hierba.
11 My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
12 Συ δε, Κύριε, εις τον αιώνα διαμένεις, και το μνημόσυνον σου εις γενεάν και γενεάν.
12 Mas tú, Jehová, permanecerás para siempre, y tu memoria para generación y generación.
12 But you, Yahweh, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
13 Συ θέλεις σηκωθή, θέλεις σπλαγχνισθή την Σιών· διότι είναι καιρός να ελεήσης αυτήν, διότι ο διωρισμένος καιρός έφθασεν.
13 Tú levantándote, tendrás misericordia de Sión; porque el tiempo de tener misericordia de ella, porque el plazo es llegado.
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
14 Επειδή οι δούλοι σου αρέσκονται εις τους λίθους αυτής και σπλαγχνίζονται το χώμα αυτής.
14 Porque tus siervos aman sus piedras, y del polvo de ella tienen compasión.
14 For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
15 Τότε τα έθνη θέλουσι φοβηθή το όνομα του Κυρίου, και πάντες οι βασιλείς της γης την δόξαν σου.
15 Entonces temerán las gentes el nombre de Jehová, y todos los reyes de la tierra tu gloria;
15 So the nations will fear Yahweh’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
16 Όταν ο Κύριος οικοδομήση την Σιών θέλει φανή εν τη δόξα αυτού.
16 Por cuanto Jehová habrá edificado á Sión, y en su gloria será visto;
16 For Yahweh has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
17 Θέλει επιβλέψει επί την προσευχήν των εγκαταλελειμμένων και δεν θέλει καταφρονήσει την δέησιν αυτών.
17 Habrá mirado á la oración de los solitarios, y no habrá desechado el ruego de ellos.
17 He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
18 Τούτο θέλει γραφθή διά την γενεάν την επερχομένην· και ο λαός, όστις θέλει δημιουργηθή, θέλει αινεί τον Κύριον.
18 Escribirse ha esto para la generación venidera: y el pueblo que se criará, alabará á JAH.
18 This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise Yah,
19 Διότι έκυψεν εκ του ύψους του αγιαστηρίου αυτού, εξ ουρανού επέβλεψεν ο Κύριος επί την γην,
19 Porque miró de lo alto de su santuario; Jehová miró de los cielos á la tierra,
19 for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, Yahweh saw the earth,
20 διά να ακούση τον στεναγμόν των δεσμίων, διά να λύση τους καταδεδικασμένους εις θάνατον·
20 Para oir el gemido de los presos, para soltar á los sentenciados á muerte;
20 to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
21 διά να κηρύττωσιν εν Σιών το όνομα του Κυρίου και την αίνεσιν αυτού εν Ιερουσαλήμ,
21 Porque cuenten en Sión el nombre de Jehová, y su alabanza en Jerusalem,
21 that men may declare Yahweh’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
22 όταν συναχθώσιν ομού οι λαοί και αι βασιλείαι, διά να δουλεύσωσι τον Κύριον.
22 Cuando los pueblos se congregaren en uno, y los reinos, para servir á Jehová.
22 when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve Yahweh.
23 Ηδυνάτισεν εν τη οδώ την ισχύν μου· συνέτεμε τας ημέρας μου.
23 El afligió mi fuerza en el camino; acortó mis días.
23 He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.
24 Εγώ είπα, μη με αρπάσης, Θεέ μου, εν τω ημίσει των ημερών μου· τα έτη σου είναι εις γενεάς γενεών.
24 Dije: Dios mío, no me cortes en el medio de mis días: por generación de generaciones son tus años.
24 I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.
25 Κατ' αρχάς συ, Κύριε, την γην εθεμελίωσας, και έργα των χειρών σου είναι οι ουρανοί.
25 Tú fundaste la tierra antiguamente, y los cielos son obra de tus manos.
25 Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.
26 Αυτοί θέλουσιν απολεσθή, συ δε διαμένεις· και πάντες ως ιμάτιον θέλουσι παλαιωθή· ως περιένδυμα θέλεις τυλίξει αυτούς, και θέλουσιν αλλαχθή·
26 Ellos perecerán, y tú permanecerás; y todos ellos como un vestido se envejecerán; como una ropa de vestir los mudarás, y serán mudados:
26 They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
27 συ όμως είσαι ο αυτός, και τα έτη σου δεν θέλουσιν εκλείψει.
27 Mas tú eres el mismo, y tus años no se acabarán.
27 But you are the same. Your years will have no end.
28 Οι υιοί των δούλων σου θέλουσι κατοικεί, και το σπέρμα αυτών θέλει διαμένει ενώπιόν σου.
28 Los hijos de tus siervos habitarán, y su simiente será afirmada delante de ti.
28 The children of your servants will continue. Their offspring will be established before you.”

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).
In this Psalm, we ought to seek in the whole body of it what we find in the first verse: "Mercy and judgment will I sing unto Thee, O Lord" (ver. 1).

The children of Thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established for ever;" pointing out plainly what things they are that pass away, and who it is that doth endure for ever--God, together with His servants.
So, then, by a humble piety we return to Thee; and thou purgest us from our evil customs, and art merciful unto the sins of those who confess unto Thee, and dost "hear the groaning of the prisoner," and dost loosen us from those fetters which we have forged for ourselves, if we lift not up against Thee the horns …

On this account also one hath said, "My days have failed like smoke." He indeed was referring to their shortness of duration, and to their unsubstantial nature, but I would say that we should take what is said, not in this sense alone, but also as to their turbid character.

Hear David the Prophet saying, Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Thy hands; they shall perish, but Thou remainest.
