| Vers | English: King James Version | Greek OT: LXX [A] Accented |
| 1 | Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me. | εἰς τὸ τέλος μὴ διαφθείρῃς τῷ δαυιδ εἰς στηλογραφίαν ἐν τῷ αὐτὸν ἀποδιδράσκειν ἀπὸ προσώπου σαουλ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον |
| 2 | Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High. | ἐλέησόν με ὁ θεός ἐλέησόν με ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ πέποιθεν ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ ἐν τῇ σκιᾷ τῶν πτερύγων σου ἐλπιῶ ἕως οὗ παρέλθῃ ἡ ἀνομία |
| 3 | What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. | κεκράξομαι πρὸς τὸν θεὸν τὸν ὕψιστον τὸν θεὸν τὸν εὐεργετήσαντά με |
| 4 | In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. | ἐξαπέστειλεν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἔσωσέν με ἔδωκεν εἰς ὄνειδος τοὺς καταπατοῦντάς με διάψαλμα ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν αὐτοῦ |
| 5 | Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil. | καὶ ἐρρύσατο τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ μέσου σκύμνων ἐκοιμήθην τεταραγμένος υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτῶν ὅπλον καὶ βέλη καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτῶν μάχαιρα ὀξεῖα |
| 6 | They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul. | ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς ὁ θεός καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου |
| 7 | Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God. | παγίδα ἡτοίμασαν τοῖς ποσίν μου καὶ κατέκαμψαν τὴν ψυχήν μου ὤρυξαν πρὸ προσώπου μου βόθρον καὶ ἐνέπεσαν εἰς αὐτόν διάψαλμα |
| 8 | Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book? | ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ὁ θεός ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ᾄσομαι καὶ ψαλῶ |
| 9 | When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me. | ἐξεγέρθητι ἡ δόξα μου ἐξεγέρθητι ψαλτήριον καὶ κιθάρα ἐξεγερθήσομαι ὄρθρου |
| 10 | In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word. | ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν λαοῖς κύριε ψαλῶ σοι ἐν ἔθνεσιν |
| 11 | In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me. | ὅτι ἐμεγαλύνθη ἕως τῶν οὐρανῶν τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ ἕως τῶν νεφελῶν ἡ ἀλήθειά σου |
| 12 | Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee. | ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς ὁ θεός καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου |
| 13 | For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living? |
