1
|
| ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΣ ἀνήρ, ὃς οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ἐν βουλῇ ἀσεβῶν καὶ ἐν ὁδῷ ἁμαρτωλῶν οὐκ ἔστη καὶ ἐπὶ καθέδρᾳ λοιμῶν οὐκ ἐκάθισεν. | Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men. |
|

|
| ἀλλ᾿ ἤ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Κυρίου τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτοῦ μελετήσει ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός. | But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night. |
|

|
3
|
| καὶ ἔσται ὡς τὸ ξύλον τὸ πεφυτευμένον παρὰ τὰς διεξόδους τῶν ὑδάτων, ὃ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ δώσει ἐν καιρῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸ φύλλον αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀποῤῥυήσεται· καὶ πάντα, ὅσα ἂν ποιῇ, κατευοδωθήσεται. | And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatsoever he shall do shall be prospered. |
|

|
| οὐχ οὕτως οἱ ἀσεβεῖς, οὐχ οὕτως, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ὡσεὶ χνοῦς, ὃν ἐκρίπτει ὁ ἄνεμος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς. | Not so the ungodly;—not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth. |
|
5
|
5
|
| διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἀναστήσονται ἀσεβεῖς ἐν κρίσει, οὐδὲ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐν βουλῇ δικαίων· | Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just. |
|
6
|
6
|
| ὅτι γινώσκει Κύριος ὁδὸν δικαίων, καὶ ὁδὸς ἀσεβῶν ἀπολεῖται. | For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish. |

|
43
|
43
|
| καὶ λεπτυνῶ αὐτοὺς ὡσεὶ χνοῦν κατὰ πρόσωπον ἀνέμου, ὡς πηλὸν πλατειῶν λεανῶ αὐτούς. | I will grind them as the mud of the streets: and I will beat them small as dust before the wind. |

| Τῷ Δαυΐδ. ΜΗ ΠΑΡΑΖΗΛΟΥ ἐν πονηρευομένοις μηδὲ ζήλου τοὺς ποιοῦντας τὴν ἀνομίαν· | A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be envious of them that do iniquity. |
|
2
|
2
|
| ὅτι ὡσεὶ χόρτος ταχὺ ἀποξηρανθήσονται καὶ ὡσεὶ λάχανα χλόης ταχὺ ἀποπεσοῦνται. | For they shall soon be withered as the grass, and shall soon fall away as the green herbs. |
|

|
| ἔλπισον ἐπὶ Κύριον καὶ ποίει χρηστότητα καὶ κατασκήνου τὴν γῆν, καὶ ποιμανθήσῃ ἐπὶ τῷ πλούτῳ αὐτῆς. | Hope in the Lord, and do good; and dwell on the land, and thou shalt be fed with the wealth of it. |
|
4
|
4
|
| κατατρύφησον τοῦ Κυρίου, καὶ δώσει σοι τὰ αἰτήματα τῆς καρδίας σου. | Delight thyself in the Lord; and he shall grant thee the requests of thine heart. |
|

|
| ἀποκάλυψον πρὸς Κύριον τὴν ὁδόν σου καὶ ἔλπισον ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν, καὶ αὐτὸς ποιήσει | Disclose thy way to the Lord, and hope in him; and he shall bring it to pass. |
|

|

|
| καὶ ἐξοίσει ὡς φῶς τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου καὶ τὸ κρῖμά σου ὡς μεσημβρίαν. | And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noon-day. |
|

|
| ὑποτάγηθι τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ ἱκέτευσον αὐτόν· μὴ παραζήλου ἐν τῷ κατευοδουμένῳ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀνθρώπῳ ποιοῦντι παρανομίαν. | Submit thyself to the Lord, and supplicate him: fret not thyself because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds. |

8
|
| παῦσαι ἀπὸ ὀργῆς καὶ ἐγκατάλιπε θυμόν, μὴ παραζήλου ὥστε πονηρεύεσθαι· | Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself so as to do evil. |
|

|
9
|
| ὅτι οἱ πονηρευόμενοι ἐξολοθρευθήσονται, οἱ δὲ ὑπομένοντες τὸν Κύριον αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσι γῆν. | For evil-doers shall be destroyed: but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land. |
|
10
|
10
|
| καὶ ἔτι ὀλίγον καὶ οὐ μὴ ὑπάρξῃ ὁ ἁμαρτωλός, καὶ ζητήσεις τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐ μὴ εὕρῃς· | And yet a little while, and the sinner shall not be, and thou shalt seek for his place, and shalt not find it. |
|
11
|
11
|
| οἱ δὲ πραεῖς κληρονομήσουσι γῆν καὶ κατατρυφήσουσιν ἐπὶ πλήθει εἰρήνης. | But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. |
|
12
|
12
|
| παρατηρήσεται ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς τὸν δίκαιον καὶ βρύξει ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτοῦ· | The sinner will watch for the righteous, and gnash his teeth upon him. |
|
13
|
13
|
| ὁ δὲ Κύριος ἐκγελάσεται αὐτόν, ὅτι προβλέπει ὅτι ἥξει ἡ ἡμέρα αὐτοῦ. | But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foresees that his day will come. |
|
14
|
14
|
| ρομφαίαν ἐσπάσαντο οἱ ἁμαρτωλοί, ἐνέτειναν τόξον αὐτῶν τοῦ καταβαλεῖν πτωχὸν καὶ πένητα, τοῦ σφάξαι τοὺς εὐθεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ· | Sinners have drawn their swords, they have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy one, and to slay the upright in heart. |
|
15
|
15
|
| ἡ ρομφαία αὐτῶν εἰσέλθοι εἰς τὰς καρδίας αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ τόξα αὐτῶν συντριβείη. | Let their sword enter into their own heart, and their bows be broken. |
|
16
|
16
|
| κρεῖσσον ὀλίγον τῷ δικαίῳ ὑπὲρ πλοῦτον ἁμαρτωλῶν πολύν· | A little is better to the righteous than abundant wealth of sinners. |
|
17
|
17
|
| ὅτι βραχίονες ἁμαρτωλῶν συντριβήσονται, ὑποστηρίζει δὲ δικαίους ὁ Κύριος. | For the arms of sinners shall be broken; but the Lord supports the righteous. |
|
18
|
18
|
| γινώσκει Κύριος τὰς ὁδοὺς τῶν ἀμώμων, καὶ ἡ κληρονομία αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔσται· | The Lord knows the ways of the perfect; and their inheritance shall be for ever. |
|
19
|
19
|
| οὐ καταισχυνθήσονται ἐν καιρῷ πονηρῷ καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις λιμοῦ χορτασθήσονται. | They shall not be ashamed in an evil time; and in days of famine they shall be satisfied. |
|
20
|
20
|
| ὅτι οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀπολοῦνται, οἱ δὲ ἐχθροὶ τοῦ Κυρίου ἅμα τῷ δοξασθῆναι αὐτοὺς καὶ ὑψωθῆναι ἐκλείποντες ὡσεὶ καπνὸς ἐξέλιπον. | For the sinners shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord at the moment of their being honoured and exalted have utterly vanished like smoke. |
|
21
|
21
|
| δανείζεται ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς καὶ οὐκ ἀποτίσει, ὁ δὲ δίκαιος οἰκτείρει καὶ δίδωσιν· | The sinner borrows, and will not pay again: but the righteous has compassion, and gives. |
|
22
|
22
|
| ὅτι οἱ εὐλογοῦντες αὐτὸν κληρονομήσουσι γῆν, οἱ δὲ καταρώμενοι αὐτὸν ἐξολοθρευθήσονται. | For they that bless him shall inherit the earth; and they that curse him shall be utterly destroyed. |
|
23
|
23
|
| παρὰ Κυρίου τὰ διαβήματα ἀνθρώπου κατευθύνεται, καὶ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ θελήσει σφόδρα· | The steps of a man are rightly ordered by the Lord: and he will take pleasure in his way. |
|
24
|
24
|
| ὅταν πέσῃ, οὐ καταῤῥαχθήσεται, ὅτι Κύριος ἀντιστηρίζει χεῖρα αὐτοῦ. | When he falls, he shall not be ruined: for the Lord supports his hand. |
|
25
|
25
|
| νεώτερος ἐγενόμην καὶ γὰρ ἐγήρασα καὶ οὐκ εἶδον δίκαιον ἐγκαταλελειμμένον, οὐδὲ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ζητοῦν ἄρτους· | I was once young, indeed I am now old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread. |
|
26
|
26
|
| ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἐλεεῖ καὶ δανείζει ὁ δίκαιος, καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ εἰς εὐλογίαν ἔσται. | He is merciful, and lends continually; and his seed shall be blessed. |
|
27
|
27
|
| ἔκκλινον ἀπὸ κακοῦ καὶ ποίησον ἀγαθὸν καὶ κατασκήνου εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος· | Turn aside from evil, and do good; and dwell for ever. |
|
28
|
28
|
| ὅτι Κύριος ἀγαπᾷ κρίσιν καὶ οὐκ ἐγκαταλείψει τοὺς ὁσίους αὐτοῦ, εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα φυλαχθήσονται· ἄνομοι δὲ ἐκδιωχθήσονται, καὶ σπέρμα ἀσεβῶν ἐξολοθρευθήσεται. | For the Lord loves judgment, and will not forsake his saints; they shall be preserved for ever: the blameless shall be avenged, but the seed of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed. |
|
29
|
29
|
| δίκαιοι δὲ κληρονομήσουσι γῆν καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς. | But the righteous shall inherit the earth, and dwell upon it for ever. |
|
30
|
30
|
| στόμα δικαίου μελετήσει σοφίαν, καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ λαλήσει κρίσιν. | The mouth of the righteous will meditate wisdom, and his tongue will speak of judgment. |
|
31
|
31
|
| ὁ νόμος τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ἐν καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐχ ὑποσκελισθήσεται τὰ διαβήματα αὐτοῦ. | The law of his God is in his heart; and his steps shall not slide. |
|
32
|
32
|
| κατανοεῖ ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς τὸν δίκαιον καὶ ζητεῖ τοῦ θανατῶσαι αὐτόν, | The sinner watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him. |
|
33
|
33
|
| ὁ δὲ Κύριος οὐ μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃ αὐτὸν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ, οὐδὲ μὴ καταδικάσηται αὐτόν, ὅταν κρίνηται αὐτῷ. | But the Lord will not leave him in his hands, nor by any means condemn him when he is judged. |
|
34
|
34
|
| ὑπόμεινον τὸν Κύριον καὶ φύλαξον τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὑψώσει σε τοῦ κατακληρονομῆσαι γῆν· ἐν τῷ ἐξολοθρεύεσθαι ἁμαρτωλοὺς ὄψει. | Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are destroyed, thou shalt see it. |
|
35
|
35
|
| εἶδον τὸν ἀσεβῆ ὑπερυψούμενον καὶ ἐπαιρόμενον ὡς τὰς κέδρους τοῦ Λιβάνου· | I saw the ungodly very highly exalting himself, and lifting himself up like the cedars of Libanus. |
|
36
|
36
|
| καὶ παρῆλθον, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν, καὶ ἐζήτησα αὐτόν, καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθη ὁ τόπος αὐτοῦ. | Yet I passed by, and lo! he was not: and I sought him, but his place was not found. |
|
37
|
37
|
| φύλασσε ἀκακίαν καὶ ἴδε εὐθύτητα, ὅτι ἐστὶν ἐγκατάλειμμα ἀνθρώπῳ εἰρηνικῷ· | Maintain innocence, and behold uprightness: for there is a remnant to the peaceable man. |
|
38
|
38
|
| οἱ δὲ παράνομοι ἐξολοθρευθήσονται ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό, τὰ ἐγκαταλείμματα τῶν ἀσεβῶν ἐξολοθρευθήσονται. | But the transgressors shall be utterly destroyed together: the remnants of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed. |
|
39
|
39
|
| σωτηρία δὲ τῶν δικαίων παρὰ Κυρίου, καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς αὐτῶν ἐστιν ἐν καιρῷ θλίψεως, | But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord; and he is their defender in the time of affliction. |
|
40
|
40
|
| καὶ βοηθήσει αὐτοῖς Κύριος καὶ ῥύσεται αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐξελεῖται αὐτοὺς ἐξ ἁμαρτωλῶν καὶ σώσει αὐτούς, ὅτι ἤλπισαν ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν. | And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: and he shall rescue them from sinners, and save them, because they have hoped in him. |

|
3
|
3
|
| ὅτι τὰ βέλη σου ἐνεπάγησάν μοι, καὶ ἐπεστήριξας ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ τὴν χεῖρά σου· | For thy weapons are fixed in me, and thou hast pressed thy hand heavily upon me. |
|
4
|
4
|
| οὐκ ἔστιν ἴασις ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς ὀργῆς σου, οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη ἐν τοῖς ὀστέοις μου ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν μου. | For there is no health in my flesh because of thine anger; there is no peace to my bones because of my sins. |
|

| ὅτι αἱ ἀνομίαι μου ὑπερῇραν τὴν κεφαλήν μου, ὡσεὶ φορτίον βαρὺ ἐβαρύνθησαν ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ. | For my transgressions have gone over mine head: they have pressed heavily upon me like a weighty burden. |

8
|
8
|
| ὅτι αἱ ψόαι μου ἐπλήσθησαν ἐμπαιγμάτων, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἴασις ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου· | For my soul is filled with mockings; and there is no health in my flesh. |
|

| ἐκακώθην καὶ ἐταπεινώθην ἕως σφόδρα, ὠρυόμην ἀπὸ στεναγμοῦ τῆς καρδίας μου. | I have been afflicted and brought down exceedingly: I have roared for the groaning of my heart. |
|
10
|
10
|
| Κύριε, ἐναντίον σου πᾶσα ἡ ἐπιθυμία μου, καὶ ὁ στεναγμός μου ἀπὸ σοῦ οὐκ ἀπεκρύβη. | But all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hidden from thee. |
|
11

11
|
| ἡ καρδία μου ἐταράχθη, ἐγκατέλιπέ με ἡ ἰσχύς μου, καὶ τὸ φῶς τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου, καὶ αὐτὸ οὐκ ἔστι μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ. | My heart is troubled, my strength has failed me; and the light of mine eyes is not with me. |
|
12
|
12
|
| οἱ φίλοι μου καὶ οἱ πλησίον μου ἐξ ἐναντίας μου ἤγγισαν καὶ ἔστησαν, καὶ οἱ ἔγγιστά μου ἀπὸ μακρόθεν ἔστησαν· | My friends and my neighbours drew near before me, and stood still; and my nearest of kin stood afar off. |
|
13

| καὶ ἐξεβιάζοντο οἱ ζητοῦντες τὴν ψυχήν μου, καὶ οἱ ζητοῦντες τὰ κακά μοι ἐλάλησαν ματαιότητας, καὶ δολιότητας ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἐμελέτησαν. | While they pressed hard upon me that sought my soul: and they that sought my hurt spoke vanities, and devised deceits all the day. |
|
14
|
14
|
| ἐγὼ δὲ ὡσεὶ κωφὸς οὐκ ἤκουον καὶ ὡσεὶ ἄλαλος οὐκ ἀνοίγων τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ· | But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and was as a dumb man not opening his mouth. |
|
15
|
15
|
| καὶ ἐγενόμην ὡσεὶ ἄνθρωπος οὐκ ἀκούων καὶ οὐκ ἔχων ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτοῦ ἐλεγμούς. | And I was as a man that hears not, and who has no reproofs in his mouth. |
|
16

17

| καὶ ἐνετείλατο νεφέλαις ὑπεράνωθεν καὶ θύρας οὐρανοῦ ἀνέῳξε | Yet he commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven, |
|
24
|
24
|
| καὶ ἔβρεξεν αὐτοῖς μάννα φαγεῖν καὶ ἄρτον οὐρανοῦ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς· | and rained upon them manna to eat, and gave them the bread of heaven. |
|
25
|
25
|
| ἄρτον ἀγγέλων ἔφαγεν ἄνθρωπος, ἐπισιτισμὸν ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοῖς εἰς πλησμονήν. | Man ate angels' bread; he sent them provision to the full. |

| ἀπῇρε Νότον ἐξ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐπήγαγεν ἐν τῇ δυνάμει αὐτοῦ Λίβα | He removed the south wind from heaven; and by his might he brought in the south-west wind. |
|
27
|
27
|
| καὶ ἔβρεξεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς ὡσεὶ χοῦν σάρκας καὶ ὡσεὶ ἄμμον θαλασσῶν πετεινὰ πτερωτά, | And he rained upon them flesh like dust, and feathered birds like the sand of the seas. |
|
28
|
28
|
| καὶ ἐπέπεσον ἐν μέσῳ παρεμβολῆς αὐτῶν κύκλῳ τῶν σκηνωμάτων αὐτῶν, | And they fell into the midst of their camp, round about their tents. |
|
29
|
29
|
| καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἐνεπλήσθησαν σφόδρα, καὶ τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν αὐτῶν ἤνεγκεν αὐτοῖς, | So they ate, and were completely filled; and he gave them their desire. |
|
30
|
30
|
| οὐκ ἐστερήθησαν ἀπὸ τῆς ἐπιθυμίας αὐτῶν. ἔτι τῆς βρώσεως οὔσης ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν, | They were not disappointed of their desire: but when their food was yet in their mouth, |
|
31
|
31
|
| καὶ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς τοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ συνεπόδισεν. | then the indignation of God rose up against them, and slew the fattest of them, and overthrew the choice men of Israel. |
|
32
|
32
|
| ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις ἥμαρτον ἔτι καὶ οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν ἐν τοῖς θαυμασίοις αὐτοῦ, | In the midst of all this they sinned yet more, and believed not his miracles. |
|
33
|
33
|
| καὶ ἐξέλιπον ἐν ματαιότητι αἱ ἡμέραι αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἔτη αὐτῶν μετὰ σπουδῆς. | And their days were consumed in vanity, and their years with anxiety. |
|
34
|
34
|
| ὅταν ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς, τότε ἐξεζήτουν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέστρεφον καὶ ὤρθριζον πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν | When he slew them, they sought him: and they returned and called betimes upon God. |
|
35
|
35
|
| καὶ ἐμνήσθησαν ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς βοηθὸς αὐτῶν ἐστι καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ῞Υψιστος λυτρωτὴς αὐτῶν ἐστι. | And they remembered that God was their helper, and the most high God was their redeemer. |
|
36
|
36
|
| καὶ ἠγάπησαν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν καὶ τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτῶν ἐψεύσαντο αὐτῷ, | Yet they loved him only with their mouth, and lied to him with their tongue. |
|
37
|
37
|
| ἡ δὲ καρδία αὐτῶν οὐκ εὐθεῖα μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, οὐδὲ ἐπιστώθησαν ἐν τῇ διαθήκῃ αὐτοῦ. | For their heart was not right with him, neither were they steadfast in his covenant. |
|
38

38

|
39
|
39
|
| καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὅτι σάρξ εἰσι, πνεῦμα πορευόμενον καὶ οὐκ ἐπιστρέφον. | And he remembered that they are flesh; a wind that passes away, and returns not. |
|
40
|
40
|
| ποσάκις παρεπίκραναν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, παρώργισαν αὐτὸν ἐν γῇ ἀνύδρῳ; | How often did they provoke him in the wilderness, and anger him in a dry land! |
|
41
|
41
|
| καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν καὶ ἐπείρασαν τὸν Θεὸν καὶ τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ παρώξυναν. | Yea, they turned back, and tempted God, and provoked the Holy One of Israel. |
|
42
|
42
|
| καὶ οὐκ ἐμνήσθησαν τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἡμέρας, ἧς ἐλυτρώσατο αὐτοὺς ἐκ χειρὸς θλίβοντος, | They remembered not his hand, the day in which he delivered them from the hand of the oppressor. |
|
43
|
43
|
| ὡς ἔθετο ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ τὰ σημεῖα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τέρατα αὐτοῦ ἐν πεδίῳ Τάνεως. | How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Tanes: |
|
44
|
44
|
| καὶ μετέστρεψεν εἰς αἷμα τοὺς ποταμοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ὀμβρήματα αὐτῶν, ὅπως μὴ πίωσιν· | and had changed their rivers into blood; and their streams, that they should not drink. |
|
45
|
45
|
| ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς αὐτοὺς κυνόμυιαν, καὶ κατέφαγεν αὐτούς, καὶ βάτραχον, καὶ διέφθειρεν αὐτούς· | He sent against them the dog-fly, and it devoured them; and the frog, and it spoiled them. |
|
46
|
46
|
| καὶ ἔδωκε τῇ ἐρυσίβῃ τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς πόνους αὐτῶν τῇ ἀκρίδι· | And he gave their fruit to the canker worm, and their labours to the locust. |
|
47
|
47
|
| ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν χαλάζῃ τὴν ἄμπελον αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς συκαμίνους αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ πάχνῃ· | He killed their vines with hail, and their sycamores with frost. |
|
48
|
48
|
| καὶ παρέδωκεν εἰς χάλαζαν τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν ὕπαρξιν αὐτῶν τῷ πυρί· | And he gave up their cattle to hail, and their substance to the fire. |
|
49
|
49
|
| ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς αὐτοὺς ὀργὴν θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ, θυμὸν καὶ ὀργὴν καὶ θλῖψιν, ἀποστολὴν δι᾿ ἀγγέλων πονηρῶν. | He sent out against them the fury of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and affliction, a message by evil angels. |
|
50
|
50
|
| ὡδοποίησε τρίβον τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσατο ἀπὸ θανάτου τῶν ψυχῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν εἰς θάνατον συνέκλεισε | He made a way for his wrath; he spared not their souls from death, but consigned their cattle to death; |
|
51
|
51
|
| καὶ ἐπάταξε πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ, ἀπαρχὴν παντὸς πόνου αὐτῶν ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασι Χάμ, | and smote every first-born in the land of Egypt; the first-fruits of their labours in the tents of Cham. |
|
52
|
52
|
| καὶ ἀπῇρεν ὡς πρόβατα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ὡσεὶ ποίμνιον ἐν ἐρήμῳ | And he removed his people like sheep; he led them as a flock in the wilderness. |
|
53
|
53
|
| καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτοὺς ἐπ᾿ ἐλπίδι, καὶ οὐκ ἐδειλίασαν, καὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν ἐκάλυψε θάλασσα. | And he guided them with hope, and they feared not: but the sea covered their enemies. |
|
54
|
54
|
| καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς ὄρος ἁγιάσματος αὐτοῦ, ὄρος τοῦτο, ὃ ἐκτήσατο ἡ δεξιὰ αὐτοῦ, | And he brought them in to the mountain of his sanctuary, this mountain which his right hand had purchased. |
|
55
|
55
|
| καὶ ἐξέβαλεν ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν ἔθνη καὶ ἐκληροδότησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν σχοινίῳ κληροδοσίας καὶ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασιν αὐτῶν τὰς φυλὰς τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ. | And he cast out the nations from before them, and made them to inherit by a line of inheritance, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents. |
|
56
|
56
|
| καὶ ἐπείρασαν καὶ παρεπίκραναν τὸν Θεὸν τὸν ῞Υψιστον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐφυλάξαντο | Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies. |
|
57
|
57
|
| καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν καὶ ἠθέτησαν, καθὼς καὶ οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν, μετεστράφησαν εἰς τόξον στρεβλὸν | And they turned back, and broke covenant, even as also their fathers: they became like a crooked bow. |
|
58
|
58
|
| καὶ παρώργισαν αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς βουνοῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν τοῖς γλυπτοῖς αὐτῶν παρεζήλωσαν αὐτόν. | And they provoked him with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images. |
|
59
|
59
|
| ἤκουσεν ὁ Θεὸς καὶ ὑπερεῖδε καὶ ἐξουδένωσε σφόδρα τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ. | God heard and lightly regarded them, and greatly despised Israel. |
|
60
|
60
|
| καὶ ἀπώσατο τὴν σκηνὴν Σιλώμ, σκήνωμα, ὃ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν ἀνθρώποις. | And he rejected the tabernacle of Selom, his tent where he dwelt among men. |

|
64
|
64
|
| οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῶν ἐν ρομφαίᾳ ἔπεσον, καὶ αἱ χῆραι αὐτῶν οὐ κλαυθήσονται. | Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows shall not be wept for. |
|
65
|
65
|
| καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ὡς ὁ ὑπνῶν Κύριος, ὡς δυνατὸς κεκραιπαληκὼς ἐξ οἴνου, | So the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and as a mighty man who has been heated with wine. |
|
66
|
66
|
| καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, ὄνειδος αἰώνιον ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς. | And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he brought on them a perpetual reproach. |
|
67
|
67
|
| καὶ ἀπώσατο τὸ σκήνωμα ᾿Ιωσὴφ καὶ τὴν φυλὴν ᾿Εφραὶμ οὐκ ἐξελέξατο· | And he rejected the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim; |
|
68
|
68
|
| καὶ ἐξελέξατο τὴν φυλὴν ᾿Ιούδα, τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σιών, ὃ ἠγάπησε, | but chose the tribe of Juda, the mount Sion which he loved. |
|
69
|
69
|
| καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ὡς μονοκέρωτος τὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. | And he built his sanctuary as the place of unicorns; he founded it for ever on the earth. |
|
70

| καὶ ἐξελέξατο Δαυΐδ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐκ τῶν ποιμνίων τῶν προβάτων, | He chose David also his servant, and took him up from the flocks of sheep. |
|
71
|
71
|
| ἐξόπισθεν τῶν λοχευομένων ἔλαβεν αὐτόν ποιμαίνειν ᾿Ιακὼβ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ | He took him from following the ewes great with young, to be the shepherd of Jacob his servant, and Israel his inheritance. |
|
72

72
|
| καὶ ἐποίμανεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἀκακίᾳ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῇ συνέσει τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ ὡδήγησεν αὐτούς. | So he tended them in the innocency of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands. |

|
25

|
33
|
33
|
| ᾄσω τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ μου, ψαλῶ τῷ Θεῷ μου ἕως ὑπάρχω· | I will sing to the Lord while I live; I will sing praise to my God while I exist. |

24
|
24
|
| καὶ ἐξουδένωσαν γῆν ἐπιθυμητήν, οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν τῷ λόγῳ αὐτοῦ· | Moreover they set at nought the desirable land, and believed not his word. |

|
29
|
29
|
| καὶ παρώξυναν αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτηδεύμασιν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπληθύνθη ἐν αὐτοῖς ἡ πτῶσις. | and destruction was multiplied among them. |

|
36
|
36
|
| καὶ ἐδούλευσαν τοῖς γλυπτοῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτοῖς εἰς σκάνδαλον· | And they served their graven images; and it became an offence to them. |

|
39
|
39
|
| καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπόρνευσαν ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτηδεύμασιν αὐτῶν. | and was polluted with their works; and they went a whoring with their own devices. |
|
40
|
40
|
| καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ Κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐβδελύξατο τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ· | So the Lord was very angry with his people, and he abhorred his inheritance. |
|
41

| καὶ εἶδε Κύριος ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαι αὐτούς, ἐν τῷ αὐτὸν εἰσακοῦσαι τῆς δεήσεως αὐτῶν· | Yet the Lord looked upon their affliction, when he heard their petition. |
|
45
|
45
|
| καὶ ἐμνήσθη τῆς διαθήκης αὐτοῦ καὶ μετεμελήθη κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ ἐλέους αὐτοῦ | And he remembered his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercy. |

ΜΙΚΡΟΣ ἤμην ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς μου καὶ νεώτερος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρός μου· ἐποίμαινον τὰ πρόβατα τοῦ πατρός μου. | This Psalm is a genuine one of David, though supernumerary, composed when he fought in single combat with Goliad. I was small among my brethren, and youngest in my father's house: I tended my father's sheep. |
