1A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day.
1Ψαλμὸς ᾠδῆς, εἰς τὴν ἡμέραν τοῦ σαββάτου.
2It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.
2ΑΓΑΘΟΝ τὸ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ ψάλλειν τῷ ὀνόματί σου, ¨Υψιστε,
3To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:
3τοῦ ἀναγγέλλειν τῷ πρωΐ τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου κατὰ νύκτα
4Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.
4ἐν δεκαχόρδῳ ψαλτηρίῳ μετ᾿ ᾠδῆς ἐν κιθάρᾳ.
5For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.
5ὅτι εὔφρανάς με, Κύριε, ἐν τοῖς ποιήμασί σου, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν σου ἀγαλλιάσομαι.
6O Lord, how great are thy works! thy thoughts are exceeding deep.
6ὡς ἐμεγαλύνθη τὰ ἔργα σου Κύριε· σφόδρα ἐβαθύνθησαν οἱ διαλογισμοί σου.
7The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.
7ἀνὴρ ἄφρων οὐ γνώσεται, καὶ ἀσύνετος οὐ συνήσει ταῦτα.
8When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever:
8ἐν τῷ ἀνατεῖλαι ἁμαρτωλοὺς ὡσεὶ χόρτον καὶ διέκυψαν πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν, ὅπως ἂν ἐξολοθρευθῶσιν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος.
9But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.
9σὺ δὲ ¨Υψιστος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, Κύριε·
10For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου, Κύριε, ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου ἀπολοῦνται, καὶ διασκορπισθήσονται πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν,
11But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy.
11καὶ ὑψωθήσεται ὡς μονοκέρωτος τὸ κέρας μου καὶ τὸ γῆράς μου ἐν ἐλαίῳ πίονι·
12My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.
12καὶ ἐπεῖδεν ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἐν τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐπανισταμένοις ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ πονηρευομένοις ἀκούσατε τὸ οὖς μου.
13The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.
13δίκαιος ὡς φοῖνιξ ἀνθήσει, ὡσεὶ ἡ κέδρος ἡ ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ πληθυνθήσεται.
14They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
14πεφυτευμένοι ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Κυρίου, ἐν ταῖς αὐλαῖς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐξανθήσουσιν·
15They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated,
15ἔτι πληθυνθήσονται ἐν γήρει πίονι καὶ εὐπαθοῦντες ἔσονται τοῦ ἀναγγεῖλαι
16That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
16ὅτι εὐθὴς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀδικία ἐν αὐτῷ.
