| Vers | English: King James Version | Greek OT: LXX [A] Unaccented |
| 1 | Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. | εις το τελος ψαλμος τω δαυιδ |
| 2 | They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak. | εως ποτε κυριε επιληση μου εις τελος εως ποτε αποστρεψεις το προσωπον σου απ' εμου |
| 3 | The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things: | εως τινος θησομαι βουλας εν ψυχη μου οδυνας εν καρδια μου ημερας εως ποτε υψωθησεται ο εχθρος μου επ' εμε |
| 4 | Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us? | επιβλεψον εισακουσον μου κυριε ο θεος μου φωτισον τους οφθαλμους μου μηποτε υπνωσω εις θανατον |
| 5 | For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. | μηποτε ειπη ο εχθρος μου ισχυσα προς αυτον οι θλιβοντες με αγαλλιασονται εαν σαλευθω |
| 6 | The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. | εγω δε επι τω ελεει σου ηλπισα αγαλλιασεται η καρδια μου επι τω σωτηριω σου ασω τω κυριω τω ευεργετησαντι με και ψαλω τω ονοματι κυριου του υψιστου |
| 7 | Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. | |
| 8 | The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted. |
