Psalm ΚΘʹ rem close
Rem CLOSEOUT: Psalm ΚΘʹ CLOSEOUT.
Greek
εἰργάσαντο παντελῶς οὐδὲν, μένουσι δὲ μᾶλλον ἐν οἷς κατελήφθησαν, καὶ τὸν τῆς καθόλου κρίσεως ἐκ δέχονται καιρόν. Οὐκοῦν οἱ ζῶντες, καὶ τοῦ δρᾷν ἔτι τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἔχοντες ἐξουσίαν, ἐπειδὰν εὖ πάθοιεν, εὐλογήσουσί σε, ὃν τρόπον κἀγώ. ∆έομαι οὖν ἀν αχθῆναι ἐκτοῦ λάκκου, ἐπειδὴ "οὐκ ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι χοῦς·" ζώντων γὰρ ἴδιον τὸ ὑμνεῖν σε· οἱ δὲ εἰς χοῦν διαλυόμενοι, πῶς ἂν δυνηθεῖεν τοῦτο; Λέγοι δ' ἂν καὶ ∆αβὶδ πρὸς Θεὸν περὶ ἑαυτοῦ· Μαθεῖν βούλομαι τίς ὠφέλεια ἢ ἐμοὶ ἢ ἑτέροις ἐκ τοῦ αἵματός μου; ἢ τί πλέον ὑπάρξει ἐκ τοῦ ἐμὲ ἐλθεῖν εἰς διαφθοράν;
