Brenton's Septuagint (LXX) - Holy Name KJV

Psalms of Solomon{gr.Psalmoi Solomontos} 4

4:1 [[Solomon's discourse to man-pleasers.]] Why are you sitting in the council of the saints, you unclean one? And your heart stands far from the Lord, by transgressions provoking to anger the God of Israel;

4:2 Redundant in words, redundant in appearance above everyone, he who is severe in words in condemning sinners at judgment.

4:3 And his hand is the first one against him [=the sinner] as though in zeal, yet he himself is guilty of a variety of sins and incontinence.

4:4 His eyes are on every woman without distinction, his tongue lies when swearing a contract.

4:5 At night and in hiding he sins as though invisible. With his eyes he speaks to every woman with evil preplanned signal; he is quick to enter cheerfully every house as though innocent.

4:6 May God remove those who live in hypocrisy with the saints; [may] his flesh [be] in decay and his life in poverty.

4:7 May God reveal the deeds of those who are man-pleasers. [May] his deeds [be shown] ridicule and despised.

4:8 And the saints will prove the judgment of their God to be right when sinners are driven out from the presence of the righteous; man-pleaser who talks about the Law with deception.

4:9 And their eyes are on the house of a man who [lives] in peace to destroy- as a serpent- the wisdom of others with unlawful words.

4:10 His words are deception. To accomplish evil desires he did not stop until he succeeded in scattering [them] as orphans.

4:11 He devastated a house because of his unlawful desire; he deceived with words for there was no one to see and to judge.

4:12 He filled himself with unlawful actions at one [place], and his eyes are on another house to destroy [it] with clamorous words.

4:13 His soul, like Hades, is not satisfied with all this.

4:14 Lord, let his portion be in disgrace before you; his going out be with groaning and his return with cursing.

4:15 Lord, let his life be in pain and poverty and anxiety; his sleep painful and his awakening anxious.

4:16 May sleep be taken away from his temples at night; may he fail in all the work of his hands disgracefully.

4:17 May he return to his house with empty hands; may his house lack everything; may he not satisfy his soul.

4:18 May his old age be in loneliness of childlessness until his removal.

4:19 May the flesh of man-pleasers be scattered by wild animals, and the bones of the criminals- dishonored under the sun.

4:20 Let crows peck out the eyes of hypocrites for they devastated without honor houses of many people and greedily scattered [them].

4:21 They did not remember God, nor did they fear God in all these things; but they provoked the anger of God and irritated Him.

4:22 May He cut them off from the earth, for they swindle innocent people by deception.

4:23 Blessed are those who fear God in their innocence; the Lord will save them from treacherous and sinful people and save us from every unlawful snare.

4:24 May God cut off those who arrogantly commit every unrighteousness, for the Lord our God is a great and powerful judge in righteousness.

4:25 Lord, let your mercy be upon all those who love You.
