Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth— let Israel now declare—
1ᾨδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. ΕΚ ΒΑΘΕΩΝ ἐκέκραξά σοι, Κύριε·
2many a time they have persecuted me from my youth, but they have not prevailed against me.
2Κύριε, εἰσάκουσον τῆς φωνῆς μου· γενηθήτω τὰ ὦτά σου προσέχοντα εἰς τὴν φωνὴν τῆς δεήσεώς μου.
3The plowmen plowed over my back; they made their furrows long.
3ἐὰν ἀνομίας παρατηρήσῃς, Κύριε Κύριε, τίς ὑποστήσεται;
4The LORD is righteous; He has cut me from the cords of the wicked.
4ὅτι παρὰ σοὶ ὁ ἱλασμός ἐστιν.
5May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.
5ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματός σου ὑπέμεινά σε, Κύριε, ὑπέμεινεν ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὸν λόγον σου.
6May they be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can grow,
6ἤλπισεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον απὸ φυλακῆς πρωΐας μέχρι νυκτός· ἀπὸ φυλακῆς πρωΐας ἐλπισάτω Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον.
7unable to fill the hands of the reaper, or the arms of the binder of sheaves.
7ὅτι παρὰ τῷ Κυρίῳ τὸ ἔλεος καὶ πολλὴ παρ᾿ αὐτῷ λύτρωσις,
8May none who pass by say to them, “The blessing of the LORD be on you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.”
8καὶ αὐτὸς λυτρώσεται τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ πασῶν τῶν ἀνομιῶν αὐτοῦ.
