6 Brenton verses
For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me.
Εἰς τὸ τέλος, τῷ Δαυὶδ εἰς ἀνάμνησιν, εἰς τὸ σῶσαί με Κύριον.
Draw nigh, O God, to my help.
Ὁ Θεὸς εἰς τὴν βοήθειάν μου πρόσχες.
Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.
Αἰσχυνθείησαν καὶ ἐντραπείησαν οἱ ζητοῦντες τὴν ψυχήν μου, ἀποστραφείησαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, καὶ καταισχυνθείησαν οἱ βουλόμενοί μοι κατά·
Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.
Ἀποστραφείησαν παραυτίκα αἰσχυνόμενοι οἱ λέγοντές μοι, εὖγε, εὖγε.
Let all that seek thee exult and be glad in thee: and let those that love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
Ἀγαλλιάσθωσαν καὶ εὐφρανθήτωσαν ἐπὶ σοὶ πάντες οἱ ζητοῦντές σε, καὶ λεγέτωσαν διαπαντὸς, μεγαλυνθήτω ὁ Θεὸς, οἱ ἀγαπῶντες τὸ σωτήριόν σου.
But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: thou art my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
Ἐγὼ δὲ πτωχὸς καὶ πένης, ὁ Θεὸς βοήθησόν μοι· βοηθός μου, καὶ ῥύστης μου εἶ σὺ, Κύριε μὴ χρονίσῃς.
