1ΚΑΙ ἐλάλησε Δαυὶδ τῷ Κυρίῳ τοὺς λόγους τῆς ᾠδῆς ταύτης ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐξείλετο αὐτὸν Κύριος ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς Σαούλ,
1And David spoke to the Lord the words of this canticle, in the day that the Lord delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul,
2καὶ εἶπεν· Κύριε, πέτρα μου καὶ ὀχύρωμά μου καὶ ἐξαιρούμενός με ἐμοί,
2And he said: The Lord is my rock, and my strength, and my saviour.
3ὁ Θεός μου φύλαξ μου ἔσται μοι, πεποιθὼς ἔσομαι ἐπ' αὐτῷ, ὑπερασπιστής μου καὶ κέρας σωτηρίας μου, ἀντιλήπτωρ μου καὶ καταφυγή μου σωτηρίας μου, ἐξ ἀδίκου σώσεις με.
3God is my strong one, in him will I trust: my shield, and the horn of my salvation: he lifteth me up, and is my refuge: my saviour, thou wilt deliver me from iniquity.
4αἰνετὸν ἐπικαλέσομαι Κύριον καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου σωθήσομαι.
4I will call on the Lord who is worthy to be praised: and I shall be saved from my enemies.
5ὅτι περιέσχον με συντριμμοὶ θανάτου, χείμαρροι ἀνομίας ἐθάμβησάν με·
5For the pangs of death have surrounded me: the floods of Belial have made me afraid.
6ὠδῖνες θανάτου ἐκύκλωσάν με, προέφθασάν με σκληρότητες θανάτου.
6The cords of hell compassed me: the snares of death prevented me.
7ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαί με ἐπικαλέσομαι τὸν Κύριον καὶ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν μου βοήσομαι· καὶ ἐπακούσεται ἐκ ναοῦ αὐτοῦ φωνῆς μου, καὶ ἡ κραυγή μου ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν αὐτοῦ.
7In my distress I will call upon the Lord, and I will cry to my God: and he will hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry shall come to his ears.
8καὶ ἐταράχθη καὶ ἐσείσθη ἡ γῆ, καὶ τὰ θεμέλια τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνεταράχθησαν καὶ ἐσπαράχθησαν, ὅτι ἐθυμώθη Κύριος αὐτοῖς.
8The earth shook and trembled, the foundations of the mountains were moved, and shaken, because he was angry with them.
9ἀνέβη καπνὸς ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πῦρ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ κατέδεται, ἄνθρακες ἐξεκαύθησαν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ.
9A smoke went up from his nostrils, and a devouring fire out of his mouth: coals were kindled by it.
10καὶ ἔκλινεν οὐρανοὺς καὶ κατέβη, καὶ γνόφος ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.
10He bowed the heavens, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
11καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν ἐπὶ Χερουβὶμ καὶ ἐπετάσθη καὶ ὤφθη ἐπὶ πτερύγων ἀνέμου.
11And he rode upon the cherubims, and flew: and slid upon the wings of the wind.
12καὶ ἔθετο σκότος ἀποκρυφὴν αὐτοῦ κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ, ἡ σκηνὴ αὐτοῦ σκότος ὑδάτων· ἐπάχυνεν ἐν νεφέλαις ἀέρος.
12He made darkness a covering round about him: dropping waters out of the clouds of the heavens.
13ἀπὸ τοῦ φέγγους ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ἐξεκαύθησαν ἄνθρακες πυρός.
13By the brightness before him, the coals of fire were kindled.
14ἐβρόντησεν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ Κύριος, καὶ ὁ ὕψιστος ἔδωκε φωνὴν αὐτοῦ
14The Lord shall thunder from heaven: and the most high shall give forth his voice.
15καὶ ἀπέστειλε βέλη καὶ ἐσκόρπισεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἤστραψεν ἀστραπὴν καὶ ἐξέστησεν αὐτούς.
15He shot arrows and scattered them: lightning, and consumed them.
16καὶ ὤφθησαν ἀφέσεις θαλάσσης, καὶ ἀπεκαλύφθη θεμέλια τῆς οἰκουμένης ἐν τῇ ἐπιτιμήσει Κυρίου, ἀπὸ πνοῆς πνεύματος θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ.
16And the overflowings of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were laid open at the rebuke of the Lord, at the blast of the spirit of his wrath.
17ἀπέστειλεν ἐξ ὕψους καὶ ἔλαβέ με, εἵλκυσέ με ἐξ ὑδάτων πολλῶν·
17He sent from on high, and took me, and drew me out of many waters.
18ἐρρύσατό με ἐξ ἐχθρῶν μου ἰσχύος, ἐκ τῶν μισούντων με, ὅτι ἐκραταιώθησαν ὑπὲρ ἐμέ.
18He delivered me from my most mighty enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
19προέφθασάν με ἡμέραι θλίψεώς μου καὶ ἐγένετο Κύριος ἐπιστήριγμά μου
19He prevented me in the day of my affliction, and the Lord became my stay.
20καὶ ἐξήγαγέ με εἰς πλατυσμὸν καὶ ἐξείλετό με, ὅτι ηὐδόκησεν ἐν ἐμοί.
20And he brought me forth into a large place, he delivered me, because I pleased him.
21καὶ ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι Κύριος κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου, καὶ κατὰ τὴν καθαριότητα τῶν χειρῶν μου ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι.
21The Lord will reward me according to my justice: and according to the cleanness of my hands he will render to me.
22ὅτι ἐφύλαξα ὁδοὺς Κυρίου καὶ οὐκ ἠσέβησα ἀπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ μου,
22Because I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23ὅτι πάντα τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ κατεναντίον μου, καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἀπέστην ἀπ' αὐτῶν.
23For all his judgments are in my sight: and his precepts I have not removed from me.
24καὶ ἔσομαι ἄμωμος αὐτῷ καὶ προφυλάξομαι ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας μου.
24And I shall be perfect with him: and shall keep myself from my iniquity.
25καὶ ἀποδώσει μοι Κύριος κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου καὶ κατὰ τὴν καθαριότητα τῶν χειρῶν μου ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ.
25And the Lord will recompense me according to my justice: and according to the cleanness of my hands in the sight of his eyes.
26μετὰ ὁσίου ὁσιωθήσῃ καὶ μετὰ ἀνδρὸς τελείου τελειωθήσῃ
26With the holy one thou wilt be holy: and with the valiant perfect.
27καὶ μετὰ ἐκλεκτοῦ ἐκλεκτὸς ἔσῃ καὶ μετὰ στρεβλοῦ στρεβλωθήσῃ.
27With the elect thou wilt be elect: and with the perverse thou wilt be perverted.
28καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν πτωχὸν σώσεις καὶ ὀφθαλμοὺς ἐπὶ μετεώρων ταπεινώσεις.
28And the poor people thou wilt save: and with thy eyes thou wilt humble the haughty.
29ὅτι σὺ ὁ λύχνος μου, Κύριε, καὶ Κύριος ἐκλάμψει μοι τὸ σκότος μου.
29For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and thou, O Lord, wilt enlighten my darkness.
30ὅτι ἐν σοὶ δραμοῦμαι μονόζωνος καὶ ἐν τῷ Θεῷ μου ὑπερβήσομαι τεῖχος.
30For in thee I will run girded: in my God I will leap over the wall.
31ὁ ἰσχυρός, ἄμωμος ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτοῦ, τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου κραταιόν, πεπυρωμένον, ὑπερασπιστής ἐστι πᾶσι τοῖς πεποιθόσιν ἐπ' αὐτόν.
31God, his way is immaculate, the word of the Lord is tried by fire: he is the shield of all that trust in him.
32τίς ἰσχυρὸς πλὴν Κυρίου; καὶ τίς κτίστης ἔσται πλὴν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν;
32Who is God but the Lord: and who is strong but our God?
33ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ὁ κραταιῶν με δυνάμει, καὶ ἐξετίναξεν ἄμωμον τὴν ὁδόν μου·
33God who hath girded me with strength, and made my way perfect.
34τιθεὶς τοὺς πόδας μου ὡς ἐλάφων καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ὕψη ἱστῶν με·
34Making my feet like the feet of harts, and setting me upon my high places.
35διδάσκων χεῖράς μου εἰς πόλεμον καὶ κατάξας τόξον χαλκοῦν ἐν βραχίονί μου.
35He teacheth my bands to war: and maketh my arms like a bow of brass.
36καὶ ἔδωκάς μοι ὑπερασπισμὸν σωτηρίας μου, καὶ ἡ ὑπακοή σου ἐπλήθυνέ με
36Thou hast given me the shield of my salvation: and thy mildness hath multiplied me.
37εἰς πλατυσμὸν εἰς τὰ διαβήματά μου ὑποκάτω μου, καὶ οὐκ ἐσαλεύθησαν τὰ σκέλη μου.
37Thou shalt enlarge my steps under me: and my ankles shall not fail.
38διώξω ἐχθρούς μου καὶ ἀφανιῶ αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἀναστρέψω ἕως ἂν συντελέσω αὐτούς·
38I will pursue after my enemies, and crush them: and will not return again till I consume them.
39καὶ θλάσω αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἀναστήσονται καὶ πεσοῦνται ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας μου.
39I will consume them and break them in pieces, so that they shall not rise: they shall fall under my feet.
40καὶ ἐνισχύσεις με δυνάμει εἰς πόλεμον, κάμψεις τοὺς ἐπιστανομένους μοι ὑποκάτω μου·
40Thou hast girded me with strength to battle: thou hast made them that resisted me to bow under me.
41καὶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου ἔδωκάς μοι νῶτον, τοὺς μισοῦντάς με, καὶ ἐθανάτωσας αὐτούς.
41My enemies thou hast made to turn their back to me: them that hated me, and I shall destroy them.
42βοήσονται, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι βοηθός, πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ οὐκ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῶν.
42They shall cry, and there shall be none to save: to the Lord, and he shall not hear them.
43καὶ ἐλέανα αὐτοὺς ὡς χοῦν γῆς, ὡς πηλὸν ἐξόδων ἐλέπτυνα αὐτούς.
43I shall beat them as small as the dust of the earth: I shall crush them and spread them abroad like the mire of the streets.
44καὶ ρύσῃ με ἐκ μάχης λαῶν, φυλάξεις με εἰς κεφαλὴν ἐθνῶν. λαός, ὃν οὐκ ἔγνω, ἐδούλευσάν μοι,
44Thou wilt save me from the contradictions of my people: thou wilt keep me to be the head of the Gentiles: the people which I know not, shall serve me,
45υἱοὶ ἀλλότριοι ἐψεύσαντό μοι, εἰς ἀκοὴν ὠτίου ἤκουσάν μου·
45The sons of the stranger will resist me, at the hearing of the ear they will obey me.
46υἱοὶ ἀλλότριοι ἀπορριφήσονται καὶ σφαλοῦσιν ἐκ τῶν συγκλεισμῶν αὐτῶν.
46The strangers are melted away, and shall be straitened in their distresses.
47ζῇ Κύριος, καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ φύλαξ μου, καὶ ὑψωθήσεται ὁ Θεός μου, ὁ φύλαξ τῆς σωτηρίας μου.
47The Lord liveth, and my God is blessed: and the strong God of my salvation shall be exalted:
48ἰσχυρὸς Κύριος ὁ διδοὺς ἐκδικήσεις ἐμοί, παιδεύων λαοὺς ὑποκάτω μου
48God who giveth me revenge, and bringest down people under me,
49καὶ ἐξάγων με ἐξ ἐχθρῶν μου, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐπεγειρομένων μοι ὑψώσεις με, ἐξ ἀνδρὸς ἀδικημάτων ρύσῃ με.
49Who bringest me forth from my enemies, and liftest me up from them that resist me: from the wicked man thou shalt deliver me.
50διὰ τοῦτο ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι, Κύριε, ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ψαλῶ,
50Therefore will I give thanks to thee. O Lord, among the Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.
51μεγαλύνων τὰς σωτηρίας βασιλέως αὐτοῦ καὶ ποιῶν ἔλεος τῷ χριστῷ αὐτοῦ, τῷ Δαυὶδ καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος.
51Giving great salvation to his king, and shewing mercy to David his anointed, and to his seed for ever.
