Psalms 39

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	GREEK BIBLE
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David himself.	1 Εις τον πρωτον μουσικον, τον Ιεδουθουν. Ψαλμος του Δαβιδ.>> Ειπα, Θελω προσεχει εις τας οδους μου, δια να μη αμαρτανω δια της γλωσσης μου? θελω φυλαττει το στομα μου με χαλινον, ενω ειναι ο ασεβης εμπροσθεν μου.
2 I have waited expectantly for the Lord, and he was attentive to me.	2 Εσταθην αφωνος και σιωπηλος? εσιωπησα και απο του να λεγω καλον? και ο πονος μου ανεταραχθη.
3 And he heard my prayers and he led me out of the pit of misery and the quagmire. And he stationed my feet upon a rock, and he directed my steps.	3 Εθερμανθη η καρδια μου εντος μου? ενω εμελετων, εξηφθη εν εμοι πυρ? ελαλησα δια της γλωσσης μου και ειπα,
4 And he sent a new canticle into my mouth, a song to our God. Many will see, and they will fear; and they will hope in the Lord.	4 Καμε γνωστον εις εμε, Κυριε, το τελος μου και τον αριθμον των ημερων μου, τις ειναι, δια να γνωρισω ποσον ετι θελω ζησει.
5 Blessed is the man whose hope is in the name of the Lord, and who has no respect for vanities and absurd falsehoods.	5 Ιδου, μετρον σπιθαμης κατεστησας τας ημερας μου, και ο καιρος της ζωης μου ειναι ως ουδεν εμπροσθεν σου? επ' αληθειας πας ανθρωπος, καιτοι στερεος, ειναι ολως ματαιοτης. Διαψαλμα.
6 You have accomplished your many wonders, O Lord my God, and there is no one similar to you in your thoughts. I have announced and I have spoken: they are multiplied beyond number.	6 Βεβαιως ο ανθρωπος περιπατει εν φαντασια? βεβαιως εις ματην ταραττεται? θησαυριζει, και δεν εξευρει τις θελει συναξει αυτα.
7 Sacrifice and oblation, you did not want. But you have perfected ears for me. Holocaust and sin offering, you did not require.	7 Και τωρα, Κυριε, τι περιμενω; η ελπις μου ειναι επι σε.
8 Then I said, “Behold, I draw near.” At the head of the book, it has been written of me:	8 Απο πασων των ανομιων μου λυτρωσον με? μη με καμης ονειδος του αφρονος.
9 that I should do your will. My God, I have willed it. And your law is in the midst of my heart.	9 Εγεινα αφωνος? δεν ηνοιξα το στομα μου, επειδη συ εκαμες τουτο.
10 I have announced your justice in a great Church: behold, I will not restrain my lips. O Lord, you have known it.	10 Απομακρυνον απ' εμου την πληγην σου? απο της παλης της χειρος σου εγω απεκαμον.
11 I have not concealed your justice within my heart. I have spoken your truth and your salvation. I have not concealed your mercy and your truth from a great assembly.	11 Οταν δι' ελεγχων παιδευης ανθρωπον δια ανομιαν, Κατατρωγεις ως σκωληξ την ωραιοτητα αυτου? τω οντι ματαιοτης πας ανθρωπος. Διαψαλμα.
12 O Lord, do not take your tender mercies far from me. Your mercy and your truth ever sustain me.	12 Εισακουσον, Κυριε, της προσευχης μου και δος ακροασιν εις την κραυγην μου? μη παρασιωπησης εις τα δακρυα μου. Διοτι παροικος ειμαι παρα σοι και παρεπιδημος, καθως παντες οι πατερες μου.
13 For evils without number have surrounded me. My iniquities have taken hold of me, and I was not able to see. They have been multiplied beyond the hairs of my head. And my heart has forsaken me.	13 Παυσαι απ' εμου, δια να αναλαβω δυναμιν, πριν αποδημησω και δεν υπαρχω πλεον.
14 Be pleased, O Lord, to rescue me. Look down, O Lord, to help me.
15 Let them together be confounded and awed, who seek after my soul to steal it away. Let them be turned back and be in awe, who wish evils upon me.
16 Let them bear their confusion all at once, who say to me, “Well, well.”
17 Let all who seek you exult and rejoice over you. And let those who love your salvation always say, “May the Lord be magnified.”
18 But I am a beggar and poor. The Lord has been concerned about me. You are my helper and my protector. My God, do not delay.
