GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Ψαλμος του Δαβιδ.>> Κρινον με, Κυριε? διοτι εγω περιεπατησα εν ακακια μου? και επι τον Κυριον ηλπισα, και δεν θελω σαλευθη.	1 A Psalm of David, before he was sealed. The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the protector of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Εξετασον με, Κυριε, και δοκιμασον με? δοκιμασον τους νεφρους μου και την καρδιαν μου.	2 Meanwhile, the guilty draw near to me, so as to eat my flesh. Those who trouble me, my enemies, have themselves been weakened and have fallen.
3 Διοτι το ελεος σου ειναι εμπροσθεν των οφθαλμων μου? και περιεπατησα εν τη αληθεια σου.	3 If entrenched armies were to stand together against me, my heart would not fear. If a battle were to rise up against me, I would have hope in this.
4 Δεν εκαθησα μετα ανθρωπων ματαιων? και μετα υποκριτων δεν θελω υπαγει.	4 One thing I have asked of the Lord, this I will seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, so that I may behold the delight of the Lord, and may visit his temple.
5 Εμισησα την συναξιν των πονηρευομενων, και μετα ασεβων δεν θελω καθησει.	5 For he has hidden me in his tabernacle. In the day of evils, he has protected me in the hidden place of his tabernacle.
6 Θελω νιψει εν αθωοτητι τας χειρας μου και θελω περικυκλωσει το θυσιαστηριον σου, Κυριε?	6 He has exalted me upon the rock, and now he has exalted my head above my enemies. I have circled around and offered a sacrifice of loud exclamation in his tabernacle. I will sing, and I will compose a psalm, to the Lord.
7 δια να καμω να αντηχηση φωνη αινεσεως, και δια να διηγηθω παντα τα θαυμασια σου.	7 Hear my voice, O Lord, with which I have cried out to you. Have mercy on me, and hear me.
8 Κυριε, ηγαπησα την κατοικησιν του οικου σου και τον τοπον της σκηνης της δοξης σου.	8 My heart has spoken to you; my face has sought you. I yearn for your face, O Lord.
9 Μη συμπεριλαβης μετα αμαρτωλων την ψυχην μου και μετα ανδρων αιματων την ζωην μου?	9 Do not turn your face away from me. In your wrath, do not turn aside from your servant. Be my helper. Do not abandon me, and do not despise me, O God, my Saviour.
10 εις των οποιων τας χειρας ειναι ανομια, και η δεξια αυτων πληρης δωρων.	10 For my father and my mother have left me behind, but the Lord has taken me up.
11 Αλλ' εγω θελω περιπατει εν ακακια μου? λυτρωσον με και ελεησον με.	11 O Lord, establish a law for me in your way, and direct me in the right path, because of my enemies.
12 Ο πους μου ισταται εν τη ευθυτητι? εν εκκλησιαις θελω ευλογει τον Κυριον.	12 Do not surrender me to the souls of those who trouble me. For unjust witnesses have risen up against me, and iniquity has lied to itself.
	13 I believe that I shall see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living.
	14 Wait for the Lord, act manfully; and let your heart be strengthened, and remain with the Lord.
