A Psalm of David. Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou hast clothed thyself with praise and honour:

Псало́мъ Дави́ду, о мірстѣ́мъ бытіи́.

²

who dost robe thyself with light as with a garment; spreading out the heaven as a curtain.

¹

Благослови́, душе́ моя́, Го́спода. Го́споди Бо́же мо́й, возвели́чился єси́ зѣло́: во исповѣ́даніє и въ велелѣ́поту обле́клся єси́:

³

Who covers his chambers with waters; who makes the clouds his chariot; who walks on the wings of the wind.

²

одѣя́йся свѣ́томъ я́ко ри́зою, простира́яй не́бо я́ко ко́жу:

⁴

Who makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flaming fire.

³

покрыва́яй вода́ми превы́спренняя Своя́, полага́яй о́блаки на восхожде́ніє Своє́, ходя́й на крилу́ вѣ́треню:

⁵

Who establishes the earth on her sure foundation: it shall not be moved for ever.

⁴

творя́й а́нгелы Своя́ ду́хи, и слуги́ Своя́ пла́мень о́гненный:

⁶

The deep, as it were a garment, is his covering: the waters shall stand on the hills.

⁵

основа́яй зе́млю на тве́рди єя́: не преклони́тся въ вѣ́къ вѣ́ка.

⁷

At thy rebuke they shall flee; at the voice of thy thunder they shall be alarmed.

⁶

Бе́здна я́ко ри́за одѣя́ніє єя́, на гора́хъ ста́нутъ во́ды:

⁸

They go up to the mountains, and down to the plains, to the place which thou hast founded for them.

⁷

от запреще́нія Твоєго́ побѣ́гнутъ, от гла́са гро́ма Твоєго́ убоя́тся.

⁹

Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass, neither shall they turn again to cover the earth.

⁸

Восхо́дятъ го́ры, и низхо́дятъ поля́, въ мѣ́сто є́же основа́лъ єси́ и́мъ.

¹⁰

He sends forth his fountains among the valleys: the waters shall run between the mountains.

⁹

Предѣ́лъ положи́лъ єси́, єго́же не пре́йдутъ, ниже́ обратя́тся покры́ти зе́млю.

¹¹

They shall give drink to all the wild beasts of the field: the wild asses shall take of them to quench their thirst.

¹⁰

Посыла́яй исто́чники въ де́брехъ, посредѣ́ го́ръ про́йдутъ во́ды.

¹²

By them shall the birds of the sky lodge: they shall utter a voice out of the midst of the rocks.

¹¹

Напая́ютъ вся́ звѣ́ри се́лныя, жду́тъ {воспріи́мутъ} она́гри въ жа́жду свою́.

¹³

He waters the mountains from his chambers: the earth shall be satisfied with the fruit of thy works.

¹²

На ты́хъ пти́цы небе́сныя привита́ютъ: от среды́ ка́менія дадя́тъ гла́съ.

¹⁴

He makes grass to grow for the cattle, and green herb for the service of men, to bring bread out of the earth;

¹³

Напая́яй го́ры от превы́спреннихъ Свои́хъ: от плода́ дѣ́лъ Твои́хъ насы́тится земля́.

¹⁵

and wine makes glad the heart of man, to make his face cheerful with oil: and bread strengthens man's heart.

¹⁴

Прозяба́яй траву́ ското́мъ, и зла́къ на слу́жбу человѣ́комъ, извести́ хлѣ́бъ от земли́:

¹⁶

The trees of the plain shall be full of sap; even the cedars of Libanus which he has planted.

¹⁵

и віно́ весели́тъ се́рдце человѣ́ка, ума́стити лице́ єле́ємъ: и хлѣ́бъ се́рдце человѣ́ка укрѣпи́тъ.

¹⁷

There the sparrows will build their nests; and the house of the heron takes the lead among them.

¹⁶

Насы́тятся древа́ польска́я, ке́дри Ліва́нстіи, и́хже єси́ насади́лъ:

¹⁸

The high mountains are a refuge for the stags, and the rock for the rabbits.

¹⁷

та́мо пти́цы вогнѣздя́тся, єроді́єво жили́ще предводи́телствуєтъ и́ми.

¹⁹

He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knows his going down.

¹⁸

Го́ры высо́кія єле́немъ, ка́мень прибѣ́жище за́яцемъ.

²⁰

Thou didst make darkness, and it was night; in it all the wild beasts of the forest will be abroad:

¹⁹

Сотвори́лъ є́сть луну́ во времена́: со́лнце позна́ за́падъ сво́й.

²¹

even young lions roaring for prey, and to seek meat for themselves from God.

²⁰

Положи́лъ єси́ тму́, и бы́сть но́щь, въ не́йже про́йдутъ вси́ звѣ́ріє дубра́вніи,

²²

The sun arises, and they shall be gathered together, and shall lie down in their dens.

²¹

ски́мни рыка́ющіи восхи́тити и взыска́ти от Бо́га пи́щу себѣ́.

²³

Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour till evening.

²²

Возсія́ со́лнце, и собра́шася, и въ ло́жахъ свои́хъ ля́гутъ.

²⁴

How great are thy works, O Lord! in wisdom hast thou wrought them all: the earth is filled with thy creation.

²³

Изы́детъ человѣ́къ на дѣ́ло своє́ и на дѣ́ланіє своє́ до ве́чера.

²⁵

So is this great and wide sea: there are things creeping innumerable, small animals and great.

²⁴

Я́ко возвели́чишася дѣла́ Твоя́, Го́споди: вся́ прему́дростію сотвори́лъ єси́: испо́лнися земля́ тва́ри Твоєя́.

²⁶

There go the ships; and this dragon whom thou hast made to play in it.

²⁵

Сіє́ мо́ре вели́коє и простра́нноє: та́мо га́ди, и́хже нѣ́сть числа́, живо́тная ма́лая съ вели́кими:

²⁷

All wait upon thee, to give them their food in due season.

²⁶

та́мо корабли́ препла́ваютъ, змі́й се́й, єго́же созда́лъ єси́ руга́тися єму́.

²⁸

When thou hast given it them, they will gather it; and when thou hast opened thine hand, they shall all be filled with good.

²⁷

Вся́ къ Тебѣ́ ча́ютъ, да́ти пи́щу и́мъ во бла́го вре́мя.

²⁹

But when thou hast turned away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou wilt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and return to their dust.

²⁸

Да́вшу Тебѣ́ и́мъ, соберу́тъ: отве́рзшу Тебѣ́ ру́ку, вся́ческая испо́лнятся бла́гости:

³⁰

Thou shalt send forth thy Spirit, and they shall be created; and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.

²⁹

отвра́щшу же Тебѣ́ лице́, возмяту́тся: отъи́меши ду́хъ и́хъ, и изче́знутъ и въ пе́рсть свою́ возвратя́тся:

³¹

Let the glory of the Lord be for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works;

³⁰

по́слеши ду́ха Твоєго́, и сози́ждутся, и обнови́ши лице́ земли́.

³²

who looks upon the earth, and makes it tremble; who touches the mountains, and they smoke.

³¹

Бу́ди сла́ва Госпо́дня во вѣ́ки: возвесели́тся Госпо́дь о дѣ́лѣхъ Свои́хъ:

³³

I will sing to the Lord while I live; I will sing praise to my God while I exist.

³²

призира́яй на зе́млю и творя́й ю́ трясти́ся: прикаса́яйся гора́мъ, и дымя́тся.

³⁴

Let my meditation be sweet to him: and I will rejoice in the Lord.

³³

Воспою́ Го́сподеви въ животѣ́ моє́мъ, пою́ Бо́гу моєму́, до́ндеже є́смь:

³⁵

Let the sinners fail from off the earth, and transgressors, so that they shall be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul.

³⁴

да услади́тся Єму́ бесѣ́да моя́, а́зъ же возвеселю́ся о Го́сподѣ.
