A Psalm of David, before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my Saviour; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the defender of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

ўлоM двDвъ к~ѕ, прежDе пома'ꙁанїя”

²

When evil-doers drew nigh against me to eat up my flesh, my persecutors and mine enemies, they fainted and fell.

¹

Гь~ просвњще'нїе мое, и^ сп~си'тель мои, кого' ся ё^бою; г~ь защи'тиᲄель животђ` моемђ`, эT кого` ся ё^страшђ;

³

Though an army should set itself in array against me, my heart shall not be afraid: though war should rise up against me, in this am I confident.

²

Внегда` приближаᲄися на мя ꙁлобђюще, снњ'сти плоᲄїи моихᲆ” ѓ^скорбля'ющеи` м^я и^ вра'ѕи мои`, тїи и^знемого'ша, и^ падо'ша”

⁴

One thing have I asked of the Lord, this will I earnestly seek: that I should dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, that I should behold the fair beauty of the Lord, and survey his temple.

³

а%ще ѓ^пол#чи'тся на' мя по'лкъ, не ё^бои'тᲆся срDце мое” а%ще въста'нетъ на' мя брань, на'нь а%ꙁъ ё^пова'ю”

⁵

For in the day of mine afflictions he hid me in his tabernacle: he sheltered me in the secret of his tabernacle; he set me up on a rock.

⁴

е^ді'но проси'хъ эT г~а, то вꙁыщђ, е^же жи'ти ми въ домђ гн~и вся` дн~и живота' моего, ꙁрᲇти ми красоᲄы` гн~я, и^ посњща'ти цр~ковь ст~ђ'ю е^го”

⁶

And now, behold, he has lifted up mine head over mine enemies: I went round and offered in his tabernacle the sacrifice of joy; I will sing, even sing psalms to the Lord.

⁵

ја%ко съкры` мя въ кровњ свое'мъ, в# дн~ь ꙁла моего покры` мя в та'инᲇ кро'ва свое^го” на ка'мень вᲆꙁнесе` мя,

⁷

Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: pity me, and hearken to me.

⁶

и^ нн~њ с^е възнесе` главђ` мою на враги` моя” ѓ^быдоX, и^ пожрохъ въ кро'вњ е^го жертвђ хвале'нїя и^ въскликнове'нїя, въспою, и^ пою` гв~и”

⁸

My heart said to thee, I have diligently sought thy face: thy face, O Lord, I will seek.

⁷

ё^слы'ши г~и глsа мои, и%м#же въꙁва'хъ. поми'лђи мя, и^ ё^слы'ши мя”

⁹

Turn not thy face away from me, turn not thou away from thy servant in anger: be thou my helper, forsake me not; and, O God my Saviour, overlook me not.

⁸

тебњ рече срDце мое, г~а въꙁы'щђ. вᲆꙁыска` тебе лице мое`, лица` твоего г~и въꙁы'щђ”

¹⁰

For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord has taken me to himself.

⁹

не эTврати лица` твоего эT мене, и^ не ё^клони'ся гнњ'вомъ эT раба` твоего” помощниk ми` бђди, не эTри'ни мене`, и^ не ѓ^ста'ви мене б~е сп~си'телю мой”

¹¹

Teach me, O Lord, in thy way, and guide me in a right path, because of mine enemies.

¹⁰

ја%ко эTц~ъ мои и^ ма'ти моя` ѓ^ста'виста мя, г~ь же въсприя'тъ мя”

¹²

Deliver me not over to the desire of them that afflict me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me, and injustice has lied within herself.

¹¹

ꙁако'ноположи ми г~и въ пђти` твоемᲆ, и^ наста'ви мя на пђть пра'выи, вра'гъ моихъ ра'ди”

¹³

I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

¹²

не преда'жDь мене въ дш~ахъ стђжа'ющимъ ми, ја%ко въста'ша на' мя свњдњтеле непра'веднїи, и^ солга` непра'вда себᲇ”

¹⁴

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and let thy heart be strengthened: yea, wait on the Lord.

¹³

вњрою ви'дњти бл~гаа гн~я, на ꙁемли` живыX”
