1 [For the end, [a Psalm] of instruction by David, 2 when Doec the Idumean came and told Saul, and said to him, David is gone to the house of Abimelech.] 3 Why dost thou, O mighty man, boast of iniquity in [thy] mischief? All the day 4 thy tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor thou hast wrought deceit. 5 Thou hast loved wickedness more than goodness; unrighteousness better than to speak righteousness. Pause. 6 Thou hast loved all words of destruction, [and] a deceitful tongue. 7 Therefore may God destroy thee for ever, may he pluck thee up and utterly remove thee from [thy] dwelling, and thy root from the land of the living. Pause. 8 And the righteous shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say, 9 Behold the man who made not God his help; but trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and strengthened himself in his vanity. 10 But I am as a fruitful olive in the house of God: I have trusted in the mercy of God for ever, even for evermore. 11 I will give thanks to thee for ever, for thou hast done [it]: and I will wait on thy name; for [it is] good before the saints.

Εἰς τὸ τέλος· συνέσεως τῷ Δαυΐδ· 2 ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν Δωὴκ τὸν ᾿Ιδουμαῖον καὶ ἀναγγεῖλαι τῷ Σαοὺλ καὶ εἰπεῖν αὐτῷ· ἦλθε Δαυΐδ εἰς τὸν οἶκον ᾿Αβιμέλεχ. - 3 ΤΙ ΕΓΚΑΥΧᾼ ἐν κακίᾳ, ὁ δυνατός, ἀνομίαν ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν; 4 ἀδικίαν ἐλογίσατο ἡ γλῶσσά σου· ὡσεὶ ξυρὸν ἠκονημένον ἐποίησας δόλον. 5 ἠγάπησας κακίαν ὑπὲρ ἀγαθωσύνην, ἀδικίαν ὑπὲρ τὸ λαλῆσαι δικαιοσύνην. (διάψαλμα). 6 ἠγάπησας πάντα τὰ ῥήματα καταποντισμοῦ, γλῶσσαν δολίαν. 7 διὰ τοῦτο ὁ Θεὸς καθέλοι σε εἰς τέλος· ἐκτίλαι σε καὶ μεταναστεύσαι σε ἀπὸ σκηνώματός σου καὶ τὸ ρίζωμά σου ἐκ γῆς ζώντων. (διάψαλμα). 8 ὄψονται δίκαιοι καὶ φοβηθήσονται καὶ ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν γελάσονται καὶ ἐροῦσιν· 9 ἰδοὺ ἄνθρωπος, ὃς οὐκ ἔθετο τὸν Θεὸν βοηθὸν αὐτοῦ, ἀλλ᾿ ἐπήλπισεν ἐπὶ τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ πλούτου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνεδυναμώθη ἐπὶ τῇ ματαιότητι αὐτοῦ. 10 ἐγὼ δὲ ὡσεὶ ἐλαία κατάκαρπος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ· ἤλπισα ἐπὶ τὸ ἔλεος τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος. 11 ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ὅτι ἐποίησας, καὶ ὑπομενῶ τὸ ὄνομά σου, ὅτι χρηστὸν ἐναντίον τῶν ὁσίων σου.
