Psalms 3 — 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.
ℹ️ Some verses here have no matching verse in the public-domain translations (the Psalm superscriptions are not numbered verses in the CUV or the WEB). Those verses were translated by this site with AI (Claude), not taken from the WEB.

מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִ֑ד בְּ֝בׇרְח֗וֹ מִפְּנֵ֤י׀ אַבְשָׁל֬וֹם בְּנֽוֹ׃

3:1
יְ֭הֹוָה מָה־רַבּ֣וּ צָרָ֑י רַ֝בִּ֗ים קָמִ֥ים עָלָֽי׃
κύριε τί ἐπληθύνθησαν οἱ θλίβοντές με πολλοὶ ἐπανίστανται ἐπ’ ἐμέ
Domine, quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me ? Multi insurgunt adversum me ;
መዝሙር ፡ ዘዳዊት ፡ ዘአመ ፡ ጐየ ፡ እምገጸ ፡ አቤሰሎም ። አግዚኦ ፡ ሚበዝኁ ፡ እለ ፡ ይሣቅዩኒ ፤ ብዙኃን ፡ ቆሙ ፡ ላዕሌየ ።
Yahweh, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.

רַבִּים֮ אֹמְרִ֢ים לְנַ֫פְשִׁ֥י אֵ֤ין יְֽשׁוּעָ֓תָה לּ֬וֹ בֵאלֹהִ֬ים סֶֽלָה׃
πολλοὶ λέγουσιν τῇ ψυχῇ μου οὐκ ἔστιν σωτηρία αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ θεῷ αὐτοῦ διάψαλμα
multi dicunt animae meae : Non est salus ipsi in Deo ejus.
ብዙኃን ፡ ይቤልዋ ፡ ለነፍስየ ፤ ኢያድኅነኪ ፡ አምላክኪ ።
Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no help for him in God.” Selah.
3:3
וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הֹוָה מָגֵ֣ן בַּעֲדִ֑י כְּ֝בוֹדִ֗י וּמֵרִ֥ים רֹאשִֽׁי׃
σὺ δέ κύριε ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου εἶ δόξα μου καὶ ὑψῶν τὴν κεφαλήν μου
Tu autem Domine, susceptor meus es, gloria mea, et exaltans caput meum.
አንተሰ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ ምስካይየ ፡ አንተ ፤ ክብርየ ፡ ወመልዕለ ፡ ርእስየ ።
But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
3:4
ק֭וֹלִי אֶל־יְהֹוָ֣ה אֶקְרָ֑א וַיַּעֲנֵ֨נִי מֵהַ֖ר קׇדְשׁ֣וֹ סֶֽלָה׃
φωνῇ μου πρὸς κύριον ἐκέκραξα καὶ ἐπήκουσέν μου ἐξ ὄρους ἁγίου αὐτοῦ διάψαλμα
Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi ; et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
ቃልየ ፡ ኀበ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ጸራኅኩ ፤ ወሰምዐኒ ፡ እምደብረ ፡ መቅደሱ ።

3:5
אֲנִ֥י שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי וָאִ֫ישָׁ֥נָה הֱקִיצ֑וֹתִי כִּ֖י יְהֹוָ֣ה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי׃
ἐγὼ ἐκοιμήθην καὶ ὕπνωσα ἐξηγέρθην ὅτι κύριος ἀντιλήμψεταί μου
Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum ; et exsurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
አንሰ ፡ ሰከብኩ ፡ ወኖምኩ ፤ ወተንሣእኩ ፡ እስመ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ አንሥአኒ ።
I laid myself down and slept. I awakened, for Yahweh sustains me.
3:6
לֹֽא־אִ֭ירָא מֵרִבְב֥וֹת עָ֑ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר סָ֝בִ֗יב שָׁ֣תוּ עָלָֽי׃
οὐ φοβηθήσομαι ἀπὸ μυριάδων λαοῦ τῶν κύκλῳ συνεπιτιθεμένων μοι
Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me. Exsurge, Domine ; salvum me fac, Deus meus.
ኢይፈርህ ፡ እምአእላፍ ፡ አሕዛብ ፤ እለ ፡ ዐገቱኒ ፡ ወቆሙ ፡ ላዕሌየ ።
I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.

ק֘וּמָ֤ה יְהֹוָ֨ה׀ הוֹשִׁ֘יעֵ֤נִי אֱלֹהַ֗י כִּֽי־הִכִּ֣יתָ אֶת־כׇּל־אֹיְבַ֣י לֶ֑חִי שִׁנֵּ֖י רְשָׁעִ֣ים שִׁבַּֽרְתָּ׃
ἀνάστα κύριε σῶσόν με ὁ θεός μου ὅτι σὺ ἐπάταξας πάντας τοὺς ἐχθραίνοντάς μοι ματαίως ὀδόντας ἁμαρτωλῶν συνέτριψας
Quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa ; dentes peccatorum contrivisti.
ተንሥእ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ አምላኪየ ፡ ወአድኅነኒ ፤ እስመ ፡ አንተ ፡ ቀሠፍኮሙ ፡ ለኵሎሙ ፡ እለ ፡ ይፃረሩኒ ፡ በከንቱ ። ስነኒሆሙ ፡ ለኃጥኣን ፡ ሰበርከ ።
Arise, Yahweh! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
3:8
לַֽיהֹוָ֥ה הַיְשׁוּעָ֑ה עַֽל־עַמְּךָ֖ בִרְכָתֶ֣ךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ {פ}
τοῦ κυρίου ἡ σωτηρία καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν σου ἡ εὐλογία σου
Domini est salus ; et super populum tuum benedictio tua.
