Psalm 48
|
|
1
|
1
|
| Εἰς τὸ τέλος· τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορὲ ψαλμός. | For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core. |
|
2
|
2
|
| ΑΚΟΥΣΑΤΕ ταῦτα, πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ἐνωτίσασθε πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν οἰκουμένην, | Hear these words, all ye nations, hearken, all ye that dwell upon the earth: |
|
3
|
3
|
| οἵ τε γηγενεῖς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ πλούσιος καὶ πένης. | both the sons of mean men, and sons of great men; the rich and poor man together. |
|
4
|
4
|
| τὸ στόμα μου λαλήσει σοφίαν καὶ ἡ μελέτη τῆς καρδίας μου σύνεσιν· | My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall bring forth understanding. |
|
5
|
5
|
| κλινῶ εἰς παραβολὴν τὸ οὖς μου, ἀνοίξω ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ τὸ πρόβλημά μου. | I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my riddle on the harp. |
|
6
|
6
|
| ἱνατί φοβοῦμαι ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πονηρᾷ; ἡ ἀνομία τῆς πτέρνης μου κυκλώσει με. | Wherefore should I fear in the evil day? the iniquity of my heel shall compass me. |
|
7
|
7
|
| οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τῇ δυνάμει αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ πλήθει τοῦ πλούτου αὐτῶν καυχώμενοι, | They that trust in their strength, and boast themselves in the multitude of their wealth— |
|
8
|
8
|
| ἀδελφὸς οὐ λυτροῦται, λυτρώσεται ἄνθρωπος; οὐ δώσει τῷ Θεῷ ἐξίλασμα ἑαυτοῦ | A brother does not redeem, shall a man redeem? he shall not give to God a ransom for himself, |
|
9
|
9
|
| καὶ τὴν τιμὴν τῆς λυτρώσεως τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἐκοπίασεν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα | or the price of the redemption of his soul, though he labour for ever, |
|
10
|
10
|
| καὶ ζήσεται εἰς τέλος· οὐκ ὄψεται καταφθοράν, | and live to the end, so that he should not see corruption. |
|
11
|
11
|
| ὅταν ἴδῃ σοφοὺς ἀποθνήσκοντας. ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ἄφρων καὶ ἄνους ἀπολοῦνται καὶ καταλείψουσιν ἀλλοτρίοις τὸν πλοῦτον αὐτῶν, | When he shall see wise men dying, the fool and the senseless one shall perish together; and they shall leave their wealth to strangers. |
|
12
|
12
|
| καὶ οἱ τάφοι αὐτῶν οἰκίαι αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, σκηνώματα αὐτῶν εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν. ἐπεκαλέσαντο τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῶν γαιῶν αὐτῶν. | And their sepulchres are their houses for ever, even their tabernacles to all generations: they have called their lands after their own names. |
|
13
|
13
|
| καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἐν τιμῇ ὢν οὐ συνῆκε, παρασυνεβλήθη τοῖς κτήνεσι τοῖς ἀνοήτοις καὶ ὡμοιώθη αὐτοῖς. | And man being in honour, understands not: he is compared to the senseless cattle, and is like to them. |
|
14
|
14
|
| αὕτη ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν σκάνδαλον αὐτοῖς, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐδοκήσουσι. (διάψαλμα). | This their way is an offence to them: yet afterwards men will commend their sayings. Pause. |
|
15
|
15
|
| ὡς πρόβατα ἐν ᾅδῃ ἔθεντο, θάνατος ποιμανεῖ αὐτούς· καὶ κατακυριεύσουσιν αὐτῶν οἱ εὐθεῖς τὸ πρωΐ, καὶ ἡ βοήθεια αὐτῶν παλαιωθήσεται ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ, ἐκ τῆς δόξης αὐτῶν ἐξώσθησαν. | They have laid them as sheep in Hades; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning, and their help shall fail in Hades from their glory. |
|
16
|
16
|
| πλὴν ὁ Θεὸς λυτρώσεται τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ χειρὸς ᾅδου, ὅταν λαμβάνῃ με. (διάψαλμα). | But God shall deliver my soul from the power of Hades, when he shall receive me. Pause. |
|
17
|
17
|
| μὴ φοβοῦ, ὅταν πλουτήσῃ ἄνθρωπος καὶ ὅταν πληθυνθῇ ἡ δόξα τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ· | Fear not when a man is enriched, and when the glory of his house is increased. |
|
18
|
18
|
| ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ ἀποθνήσκειν αὐτὸν λήψεται τὰ πάντα, οὐδὲ συγκαταβήσεται αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα αὐτοῦ. | For he shall take nothing when he dies; neither shall his glory descend with him. |
|
19
|
19
|
| ὅτι ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ εὐλογηθήσεται· ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι, ὅταν ἀγαθύνῃς αὐτῷ. | For his soul shall be blessed in his life: he shall give thanks to thee when thou dost well to him. |
|
20
|
20
|
| εἰσελεύσεται ἕως γενεᾶς πατέρων αὐτοῦ, ἕως αἰῶνος οὐκ ὄψεται φῶς. | Yet he shall go in to the generation of his fathers; he shall never see light. |
|
21
|
21
|
| καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἐν τιμῇ ὢν οὐ συνῆκε, παρασυνεβλήθη τοῖς κτήνεσι τοῖς ἀνοήτοις καὶ ὡμοιώθη αὐτοῖς. | Man that is in honour, understands not: he is compared to the senseless cattle, and is like them. |
