Psalms 141 — 4 originals side by side

Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

141:1
מִזְמ֗וֹר לְדָ֫וִ֥ד יְהֹוָ֣ה קְ֭רָאתִיךָ ח֣וּשָׁה לִּ֑י הַאֲזִ֥ינָה ק֝וֹלִ֗י בְּקׇרְאִי־לָֽךְ׃
ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ κύριε ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σέ εἰσάκουσόν μου πρόσχες τῇ φωνῇ τῆς δεήσεώς μου ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς σέ
Psalmus David. Domine, clamavi ad te : exaudi me ; intende voci meae, cum clamavero ad te.
ተወከፈኒ ፡ ጸሎትየ ፡ ከመ ፡ ዕጣን ፡ በቅድሜከ ፤ አንሥኦ ፡ እደውየ ፡ መሥዋዕተ ፡ ሰርክ ።
Yahweh, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you.
141:2
תִּכּ֤וֹן תְּפִלָּתִ֣י קְטֹ֣רֶת לְפָנֶ֑יךָ מַֽשְׂאַ֥ת כַּ֝פַּ֗י מִנְחַת־עָֽרֶב׃
κατευθυνθήτω ἡ προσευχή μου ὡς θυμίαμα ἐνώπιόν σου ἔπαρσις τῶν χειρῶν μου θυσία ἑσπερινή
Dirigatur oratio mea sicut incensum in conspectu tuo ; elevatio manuum mearum sacrificium vespertinum.
ሢም ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ ዐቃቤ ፡ ለአፉየ ፤ ወማዕጾ ፡ ዘዐቅም ፡ ለከናፍርየ ።
Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.
141:3
שִׁיתָ֣ה יְ֭הֹוָה שׇׁמְרָ֣ה לְפִ֑י נִ֝צְּרָ֗ה עַל־דַּ֥ל שְׂפָתָֽי׃
θοῦ κύριε φυλακὴν τῷ στόματί μου καὶ θύραν περιοχῆς περὶ τὰ χείλη μου
Pone, Domine, custodiam ori meo, et ostium circumstantiae labiis meis.
ኢትሚጦ ፡ ለልብየ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ነገር ፡ እኩይ ፡ ወአመክንዮ ፡ ምክንያት ፡ ለኃጢአት ፡
Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.
141:4
אַל־תַּט־לִבִּ֨י לְדָבָ֪ר׀רָ֡ע לְהִתְע֘וֹלֵ֤ל עֲלִל֨וֹת׀ בְּרֶ֗שַׁע אֶת־אִישִׁ֥ים פֹּעֲלֵי־אָ֑וֶן וּבַל־אֶ֝לְחַ֗ם בְּמַנְעַמֵּיהֶֽם׃
μὴ ἐκκλίνῃς τὴν καρδίαν μου εἰς λόγους πονηρίας τοῦ προφασίζεσθαι προφάσεις ἐν ἁμαρτίαις σὺν ἀνθρώποις ἐργαζομένοις ἀνομίαν καὶ οὐ μὴ συνδυάσω μετὰ τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν αὐτῶν
Non declines cor meum in verba malitiae, ad excusandas excusationes in peccatis ; cum hominibus operantibus iniquitatem, et non communicabo cum electis eorum.
ምስለ ፡ ሰብእ ፡ ገበርተ ፡ ዐመፃ ፤ ወኢይትኀበር ፡ ምስለ ፡ ኅሩያኒሆሙ ።
Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Don’t let me eat of their delicacies.
141:5
יֶ֥הֶלְמֵֽנִי־צַדִּ֨יק׀ חֶ֡סֶד וְֽיוֹכִיחֵ֗נִי שֶׁ֣מֶן רֹ֭אשׁ אַל־יָנִ֣י רֹאשִׁ֑י כִּי־ע֥וֹד וּ֝תְפִלָּתִ֗י בְּרָעוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
παιδεύσει με δίκαιος ἐν ἐλέει καὶ ἐλέγξει με ἔλαιον δὲ ἁμαρτωλοῦ μὴ λιπανάτω τὴν κεφαλήν μου ὅτι ἔτι καὶ ἡ προσευχή μου ἐν ταῖς εὐδοκίαις αὐτῶν
Corripiet me justus in misericordia, et increpabit me : oleum autem peccatoris non impinguet caput meum. Quoniam adhuc et oratio mea in beneplacitis eorum :
ገሥጸኒ ፡ በጽድቅ ፡ ወተዛለፈኒ ፡ በምሕረት ፤ ወቅብአ ፡ ኃጥኣንሰ ፡ ኢይትቀባእ ፡ ርእስየ ።
Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; don’t let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.
141:6
נִשְׁמְט֣וּ בִֽידֵי־סֶ֭לַע שֹׁפְטֵיהֶ֑ם וְשָׁמְע֥וּ אֲ֝מָרַ֗י כִּ֣י נָעֵֽמוּ׃
κατεπόθησαν ἐχόμενα πέτρας οἱ κριταὶ αὐτῶν ἀκούσονται τὰ ῥήματά μου ὅτι ἡδύνθησαν
absorpti sunt juncti petrae judices eorum. Audient verba mea, quoniam potuerunt.
እስመ ፡ ዓዲ ፡ ጸሎትየኒ ፡ ከመ ፡ ኢተሣሀሎሙ ፤ ተሰጥሙ ፡ በጥቃ ፡ ኰኵሕ ፡ ጽኑዓኒሆሙ ።
Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.
141:7
כְּמ֤וֹ פֹלֵ֣חַ וּבֹקֵ֣עַ בָּאָ֑רֶץ נִפְזְר֥וּ עֲ֝צָמֵ֗ינוּ לְפִ֣י שְׁאֽוֹל׃
ὡσεὶ πάχος γῆς διερράγη ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς διεσκορπίσθη τὰ ὀστᾶ ἡμῶν παρὰ τὸν ᾅδην
Sicut crassitudo terrae erupta est super terram, dissipata sunt ossa nostra secus infernum.
ሰምዑኒ ፡ ቃልየ ፡ እስመ ፡ ተክህለኒ ። ከመ ፡ ግዝፈ ፡ ምድር ፡ ተሠጥቁ ፡ ዲበ ፡ ምድር ፤
“As when one plows and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.”
141:8
כִּ֤י אֵלֶ֨יךָ׀ יֱהֹוִ֣ה אֲדֹנָ֣י עֵינָ֑י בְּכָ֥ה חָ֝סִ֗יתִי אַל־תְּעַ֥ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃
ὅτι πρὸς σέ κύριε κύριε οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐπὶ σὲ ἤλπισα μὴ ἀντανέλῃς τὴν ψυχήν μου
Quia ad te, Domine, Domine, oculi mei ; in te speravi, non auferas animam meam.
ወተዘርወ ፡ አዕጽምቲሆሙ ፡ በኀበ ፡ ሲኦል ፡ እስመ ፡ ኀቤከ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ አዕይንትየ ፤ ብከ ፡ ተወከልኩ ፡ ኢታውፅኣ ፡ ለነፍስየ ።
For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord. I take refuge in you. Don’t leave my soul destitute.
141:9
שׇׁמְרֵ֗נִי מִ֣ידֵי פַ֭ח יָ֣קְשׁוּ לִ֑י וּ֝מֹקְשׁ֗וֹת פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
φύλαξόν με ἀπὸ παγίδος ἧς συνεστήσαντό μοι καὶ ἀπὸ σκανδάλων τῶν ἐργαζομένων τὴν ἀνομίαν
Custodi me a laqueo quem statuerunt mihi, et a scandalis operantium iniquitatem.
ዕቀበኒ ፡ አመሥገርት ፡ እንተ ፡ ኀብኡ ፡ ሊተ ፤ ወእማዕቀፎሙ ፡ ለገበርተ ፡ ዐመፃ ።
Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of the workers of iniquity.
141:10
יִפְּל֣וּ בְמַכְמֹרָ֣יו רְשָׁעִ֑ים יַ֥חַד אָ֝נֹכִ֗י עַֽד־אֶעֱבֽוֹר׃ {פ}
πεσοῦνται ἐν ἀμφιβλήστρῳ αὐτοῦ ἁμαρτωλοί κατὰ μόνας εἰμὶ ἐγὼ ἕως οὗ ἂν παρέλθω
Cadent in retiaculo ejus peccatores : singulariter sum ego, donec transeam.
ለይደቁ ፡ ውስተ ፡ መሥገርቶሙ ፡ ኃጥኣን ፤ እስመ ፡ አኀልፍ ፡ አነ ፡ ባሕቲትየ ።
Let the wicked fall together into their own nets while I pass by.
