1 Θεέ των εκδικήσεων, Κύριε, Θεέ των εκδικήσεων, εμφάνηθι. 2 Υψώθητι, Κριτά της γής· απόδος ανταπόδοσιν εις τους υπερηφάνους. 3 Έως πότε οι ασεβείς, Κύριε, έως πότε οι ασεβείς θέλουσι θριαμβεύει; 4 Έως πότε θέλουσι προφέρει και λαλεί σκληρά; θέλουσι καυχάσθαι πάντες οι εργάται της ανομίας; 5 Τον λαόν σου, Κύριε, καταθλίβουσι και την κληρονομίαν σου κακοποιούσι. 6 Την χήραν και τον ξένον φονεύουσι και θανατόνουσι τους ορφανούς. 7 Και λέγουσι, δεν θέλει ιδεί ο Κύριος ουδέ θέλει νοήσει ο Θεός του Ιακώβ. 8 Εννοήσατε, οι άφρονες μεταξύ του λαού· και οι μωροί, πότε θέλετε φρονιμεύσει; 9 Ο φυτεύσας το ωτίον, δεν θέλει ακούσει; ο πλάσας τον οφθαλμόν, δεν θέλει ιδεί; 10 Ο σωφρονίζων τα έθνη, δεν θέλει ελέγξει; ο διδάσκων τον άνθρωπον γνώσιν; 11 Ο Κύριος γνωρίζει τους διαλογισμούς των ανθρώπων, ότι είναι μάταιοι. 12 Μακάριος ο άνθρωπος, τον οποίον σωφρονίζεις, Κύριε, και διά του νόμου σου διδάσκεις αυτόν· 13 διά να αναπαύης αυτόν από των ημερών της συμφοράς, εωσού σκαφθή λάκκος εις τον ασεβή. 14 Διότι δεν θέλει απορρίψει ο Κύριος τον λαόν αυτού, και την κληρονομίαν αυτού δεν θέλει εγκαταλείψει. 15 Επειδή η κρίσις θέλει επιστρέψει εις την δικαιοσύνην, και θέλουσιν ακολουθήσει αυτήν πάντες οι ευθείς την καρδίαν. 16 Τις θέλει σηκωθή υπέρ εμού κατά των πονηρευομένων; τις θέλει παρασταθή υπέρ εμού κατά των εργατών της ανομίας; 17 Εάν ο Κύριος δεν με εβοήθει, παρ' ολίγον ήθελε κατοικήσει ψυχή μου εν τη σιωπή. 18 Ότε έλεγον, ωλίσθησεν ο πους μου, το έλεός σου, Κύριε, με εβοήθει. 19 Εν τω πλήθει των αμηχανιών της καρδίας μου, αι παρηγορίαι σου εύφραναν την ψυχήν μου. 20 Μήπως έχει μετά σου συγκοινωνίαν ο θρόνος της ανομίας, όστις μηχανάται αδικίαν αντί νόμου; 21 Αυτοί εφορμώσι κατά της ψυχής του δικαίου και αίμα αθώον καταδικάζουσιν. 22 Αλλ' ο Κύριος είναι εις εμέ καταφύγιον και ο Θεός μου το φρούριον της ελπίδος μου. 23 Και θέλει επιστρέψει επ' αυτούς την ανομίαν αυτών και εν τη πονηρία αυτών θέλει αφανίσει αυτούς· Κύριος ο Θεός ημών θέλει αφανίσει αυτούς.

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).
It is entitled, "The Song of praise of David himself, on the day before the Sabbath, when the earth was founded."

… faith in this fleeting course of time, and sojourns as a stranger in the midst of the ungodly, or as it shall dwell in the fixed stability of its eternal seat, which it now with patience waits for, expecting until "righteousness shall return unto judgment," and it obtain, by virtue of its excellence, final victory and perfect peace.
