For the end, among the Hymns of David.
Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ὕμνοις τῷ Δαυίδ.
O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer.
Εἰσάκουσον ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δεήσεώς μου, πρόσχες τῇ προσευχῇ μου.
From the ends of the earth have I cried to thee, when my heart was in trouble: thou liftedst me up on a rock, thou didst guide me:
Ἀπὸ τῶν περάτων τῆς γῆς πρὸς σὲ ἐκέκραξα, ἐν τῷ ἀκηδιάσαι τὴν καρδίαν μου, ἐν πέτρᾳ ὕψωσάς με, ὁδήγησάς με,
because thou wert my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
ὅτι ἐγενήθης ἐλπίς μου, πύργος ἰσχύος ἀπὸ προσώπου ἐχθροῦ.
I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of thy wings. Pause.
Παροικήσω ἐν τῷ σκηνώματί σου εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, σκεπασθήσομαι ἐν σκέπῃ τῶν πτερύγων σου· διάψαλμα.
For thou, O God, hast heard my prayers; thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.
Ὅτι σὺ ὁ Θεὸς εἰσήκουσας τῶν προσευχῶν μου, ἔδωκας κληρονομίαν τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομά σου.
Thou shalt add days to the days of the king; thou shalt lengthen his years to all generations.
Ἡμέρας ἐφʼ ἡμέρας βασιλέως προσθήσεις, τὰ ἔτη αὐτοῦ ἕως ἡμέρας γενεᾶς καὶ γενεᾶς.
He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?
Διαμενεῖ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθειαν αὐτοῦ τίς ἐκζητήσει αὐτῶν;
So will I sing to thy name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
Οὕτως ψαγῶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος, τοῦ ἀποδοῦναί με τὰς εὐχάς μου ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας.
