7 ΠΣΑΛΜΟΙ ΣΟΛΟΜΩΝΤΟΣPSALMS OF SOLOMON - Brenton|RSVReference
Τῷ Σαλωμων· ἐπιστροφῆς.
 Of Solomon. Of turning. 
1Μὴ ἀποσκηνώσῃς ἀφ' ἡμῶν, ὁ θεός,
ἵνα μὴ ἐπιθῶνται ἡμῖν οἳ ἐμίσησαν ἡμᾶς δωρεάν.
 Make not Thy dwelling afar from us, O God;
Lest they assail us that hate us without cause.		Psalm 7. PsSol.7.1-9
2ὅτι ἀπώσω αὐτούς, ὁ θεός·
μὴ πατησάτω ὁ ποὺς αὐτῶν κληρονομίαν ἁγιάσματός σου.
 For Thou hast rejected them, O God;
Let not their foot trample upon Thy holy inheritance.		 
3σὺ ἐν θελήματί σου παίδευσον ἡμᾶς,
καὶ μὴ δῷς ἔθνεσιν.
 Chasten us Thyself in Thy good pleasure;
But give [us] not up to the nations;		 
4ἐὰν γὰρ ἀποστείλῃς θάνατον, σὺ ἐντελῇ αὐτῷ περὶ ἡμῶν·
ὅτι σὺ ἐλεήμων καὶ οὐκ ὀργισθήσῃ τοῦ συντελέσαι ἡμᾶς.
 For, if Thou sendest pestilence, Thou Thyself givest it charge concerning us;
For Thou art merciful, And wilt not be angry to the point of consuming us.		 
5ἐν τῷ κατασκηνοῦν τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐν μέσῳ ἡμῶν ἐλεηθησόμεθα,
 While Thy name dwelleth in our midst, we shall find mercy; 
6καὶ οὐκ ἰσχύσει πρὸς ἡμᾶς ἔθνος,
ὅτι σὺ ὑπερασπιστὴς ἡμῶν.
 And the nations shall not prevail against us.
For Thou art our shield,		 
7καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐπικαλεσόμεθά σε, καὶ σὺ ἐπακούσῃ ἡμῶν.
 And when we call upon Thee, Thou hearkenest to us; 
8ὅτι σὺ οἰκτιρήσεις τὸ γένος Ισραηλ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ οὐκ ἀπώσῃ.
καὶ ἡμεῖς ὑπὸ ζυγόν σου τὸν αἰῶνα,
καὶ μάστιγα παιδείας σου.
 For Thou wilt pity the seed of Israel for ever And Thou wilt not reject [them]:
But we [shall be] under Thy yoke for ever,
And [under] the rod of Thy chastening.		 
9κατευθυνεῖς ἡμᾶς ἐν καιρῷ ἀντιλήψεώς σου,
τοῦ ἐλεῆσαι τὸν οἶκον Ιακωβ εἰς ἡμέραν ἐν ᾗ ἐπηγγείλω αὐτοῖς.
 Thou wilt establish us in the time that Thou helpest us,
Showing mercy to the house of Jacob on the day wherein Thou didst promise [to help them].

Notes:

The Old Testament in Greek is Rahlf's LXX available in Word format at the Tyndale website, adapted to database format.
The alternative readings of the LXX - Judges (Alexandrinus), Daniel, Susanna & Bel (LXX received text), and Tobit (Sinaiticus [not printed in Swete]) as separate book references so that they can be viewed as an alternative text in parallel with the primary text.
(I have reversed the Swete presentation for Daniel, Susanna, Bel by listing in the later Theodotion LXX text as the main text. )
The LXX cross references to the Hebrew Bible have been extensively revised using those set out in Swete's 'Old Testament in Greek' publications between 1894 and 1909, amended in part to agree with verses as printed in the Biblia Hebraica (1937 publication).
Some verse cross references in Swete's had to be amended to agree with the BHS verse numbering, and there may well be some mismatches that I haven't yet picked up on. (If you find any errors please e-mail me.)
Hebrew Bible has been adapted from the BHS in Word format at Tyndale.
The Septuagint in English ( translated by Sir Lancelot CL Brenton) - is used here only for the books of the Hebrew Bible.
The Revised Standard Version: This generally follows the Hebrew Bible for the canonical OT so I have included the RSV Aprocrypha for the Greek books not covered by Brenton.
Ecclesiasticus - Sirach Chs.30-36: The text of these chapters from 30.24 to 36.16, is disordered.
I have followed Swete's verse numbering for the greek text.
Also, the RSV verse numbering differs from the NRSV.
The NRSV appears to have followed Swete's numbering here, so I have re-ordered the RSV to agree with both the NRSV & Swete for these chapters.

Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976.
