Vamvas Modern Greek Bible: Vamvas (1850)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 «Εις τον πρώτον μουσικόν, υπό Σοσανίμ. Ψαλμός του Δαβίδ.» Σώσόν με, Θεέ, διότι εισήλθον ύδατα έως ψυχής μου.
1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Lilies.” By David. Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck!
2 Εβυθίσθην εις βαθύν πηλόν, όπου δεν είναι τόπος στερεός διά να σταθώ· έφθασα εις τα βάθη των υδάτων, και το ρεύμα με κατακλύζει.
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3 Ητόνησα κράζων· ο λάρυγξ μου εξηράνθη· απέκαμον οι οφθαλμοί μου από του να περιμένω τον Θεόν μου.
3 I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God.
4 Οι μισούντές με αναιτίως επληθύνθησαν υπέρ τας τρίχας της κεφαλής μου· εκραταιώθησαν οι εχθροί μου οι προσπαθούντες να με αφανίσωσιν αδίκως. Τότε εγώ επέστρεψα ό,τι δεν ήρπασα.
4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away.
5 Θεέ, συ γνωρίζεις την αφροσύνην μου· και τα πλημμελήματά μου δεν είναι κεκρυμμένα από σου.
5 God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren’t hidden from you.
6 Ας μη αισχυνθώσιν εξ αιτίας μου, Κύριε Θεέ των δυνάμεων, οι προσμένοντές σε· ας μη εντραπώσι δι' εμέ οι εκζητούντές σε, Θεέ του Ισραήλ.
6 Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord Yahweh of Armies. Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.
7 Διότι ένεκα σου υπέφερα ονειδισμόν· αισχύνη εκάλυψε το πρόσωπόν μου.
7 Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.
8 Ξένος έγεινα εις τους αδελφούς μου, και αλλογενής εις τους υιούς της μητρός μου·
8 I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.
9 Διότι ο ζήλος του οίκου σου με κατέφαγε· και οι ονειδισμοί των ονειδιζόντων σε επέπεσον επ εμέ.
9 For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
10 Και έκλαυσα ταλαιπωρών εν νηστεία την ψυχήν μου, αλλά τούτο έγεινεν εις όνειδός μου.
10 When I wept and I fasted, that was to my reproach.
11 Και έκαμα τον σάκκον ένδυμά μου και έγεινα εις αυτούς παροιμία.
11 When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
12 Κατ' εμού λαλούσιν οι καθήμενοι εν ταις πύλαις, και έγεινα άσμα των μεθυόντων.
12 Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards.
13 Εγώ δε προς σε κατευθύνω την προσευχήν μου, Κύριε· καιρός ευμενείας είναι· Θεέ, κατά το πλήθος του ελέους σου, επάκουσόν μου, κατά την αλήθειαν της σωτηρίας σου.
13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, Yahweh, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.
14 Ελευθέρωσόν με από του πηλού, διά να μη βυθισθώ· ας ελευθερωθώ εκ των μισούντων με και εκ των βαθέων των υδάτων.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and don’t let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
15 Ας μη με κατακλύση το ρεύμα των υδάτων, μηδέ ας με καταπίη ο βυθός· και το φρέαρ ας μη κλείση το στόμα αυτού επ' εμέ.
15 Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me.
16 Εισάκουσόν μου, Κύριε, διότι αγαθόν είναι το έλεός σου· κατά το πλήθος των οικτιρμών σου επίβλεψον επ' εμέ.
16 Answer me, Yahweh, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.
17 Και μη κρύψης το πρόσωπόν σου από του δούλου σου· επειδή θλίβομαι, ταχέως επάκουσόν μου.
17 Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!
18 Πλησίασον εις την ψυχήν μου· λύτρωσον αυτήν· ένεκα των εχθρών μου λύτρωσόν με.
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.
19 Συ γνωρίζεις τον ονειδισμόν μου και την αισχύνην μου και την εντροπήν μου· ενώπιόν σου είναι πάντες οι θλίβοντές με.
19 You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you.
20 Ονειδισμός συνέτριψε την καρδίαν μου· και είμαι περίλυπος· περιέμεινα δε συλλυπούμενον, αλλά δεν υπήρξε, και παρηγορητάς, αλλά δεν εύρηκα.
20 Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none.
21 Και έδωκαν εις εμέ χολήν διά φαγητόν μου, και εις την δίψαν μου με επότισαν όξος.
21 They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
22 Ας γείνη η τράπεζα αυτών έμπροσθεν αυτών εις παγίδα και εις ανταπόδοσιν και εις βρόχον.
22 Let their table before them become a snare. May it become a retribution and a trap.
23 Ας σκοτισθώσιν οι οφθαλμοί αυτών διά να μη βλέπωσι· και την ράχιν αυτών διαπαντός κύρτωσον.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can’t see. Let their backs be continually bent.
24 Έκχεε επ' αυτούς την οργήν σου· και ο θυμός της αγανακτήσεώς σου ας συλλάβη αυτούς.
24 Pour out your indignation on them. Let the fierceness of your anger overtake them.
25 Ας γείνωσιν έρημα τα παλάτια αυτών· εν ταις σκηναίς αυτών ας μη ήναι ο κατοικών.
25 Let their habitation be desolate. Let no one dwell in their tents.
26 Διότι εκείνον, τον οποίον συ επάταξας, αυτοί κατεδίωξαν· και λαλούσι περί του πόνου εκείνων, τους οποίους επλήγωσας.
26 For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.
27 Πρόσθες ανομίαν επί την ανομίαν αυτών, και ας μη εισέλθωσιν εις την δικαιοσύνην σου.
27 Charge them with crime upon crime. Don’t let them come into your righteousness.
28 Ας εξαλειφθώσιν εκ βίβλου ζώντων και μετά των δικαίων ας μη καταγραφθώσιν.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.
29 Εμέ δε, τον πτωχόν και λελυπημένον, η σωτηρία σου, Θεέ, ας με υψώση.
29 But I am in pain and distress. Let your salvation, God, protect me.
30 Θέλω αινέσει το όνομα του Θεού εν ωδή και θέλω μεγαλύνει αυτόν εν ύμνοις.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
31 Τούτο βεβαίως θέλει αρέσει εις τον Κύριον, υπέρ μόσχον νέον έχοντα κέρατα και οπλάς.
31 It will please Yahweh better than an ox, or a bull that has horns and hoofs.
32 Οι ταπεινοί θέλουσιν ιδεί· θέλουσι ευφρανθή· και η καρδία υμών των εκζητούντων τον Θεόν θέλει ζήσει.
32 The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.
33 Διότι εισακούει των πενήτων ο Κύριος και τους δεσμίους αυτού δεν καταφρονεί.
33 For Yahweh hears the needy, and doesn’t despise his captive people.
34 Ας αινέσωσιν αυτόν οι ουρανοί και η γη, αι θάλασσαι και πάντα τα κινούμενα εν αυταίς.
34 Let heaven and earth praise him; the seas, and everything that moves therein!
35 Διότι ο Θεός θέλει σώσει την Σιών, και θέλει οικοδομήσει τας πόλεις του Ιούδα· και θέλουσι κατοικήσει εκεί και θέλουσι κληρονομήσει αυτήν.
35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah. They shall settle there, and own it.
36 Και το σπέρμα των δούλων αυτού θέλει κληρονομήσει αυτήν, και οι αγαπώντες το όνομα αυτού θέλουσι κατοικεί εν αυτή.
36 The children also of his servants shall inherit it. Those who love his name shall dwell therein.

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).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm LXVIII)

    Of this Psalm, the title seemeth not to need operose discussion: for simple and easy it appeareth. For thus it standeth: "For the end, for David himself a Psalm of a Song." But in many Psalms already we have reminded you what is "at the end: for the end of the Law is Christ for righteousness to every man believing:" …

    For, says the elect David, "I will confess unto the Lord; and that will please Him more than a young bullock that hath horns and hoofs. Let the poor see it, and be glad." And again he saith, "Offer unto God the sacrifice of praise, and pay thy vows unto the Most High.

    Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein; and, His bishoprick let another take;" --thus leading to the completion of the apostles, according to the words spoken by David.
