1Συνέσεως Αἰθὰμ τῷ Ἰσραηλίτῃ.
1Of understanding, for Ethan the Ezrahite.
2ΤΑ ΕΛΕΗ σου, Κύριε, εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ᾄσομαι, εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν ἀπαγγελῶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου ἐν τῷ στόματί μου,
2The mercies of the Lord I will sing for ever. I will shew forth thy truth with my mouth to generation and generation.
3ὅτι εἶπας· εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔλεος οἰκοδομηθήσεται· ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς ἑτοιμασθήσεται ἡ ἀλήθειά σου·
3For thou hast said: Mercy shall be built up for ever in the heavens: thy truth shall be prepared in them.
4διεθέμην διαθήκην τοῖς ἐκλεκτοῖς μου, ὤμοσα Δαυΐδ τῷ δούλῳ μου·
4I have made a covenant with my elect: I have sworn to David my servant:
5ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος ἑτοιμάσω τὸ σπέρμα σου καὶ οἰκοδομήσω εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν τὸν θρόνον σου. (διάψαλμα).
5Thy seed will I settle for ever. And I will build up thy throne unto generation and generation.
6ἐξομολογήσονται οἱ οὐρανοὶ τὰ θαυμάσιά σου, Κύριε, καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ ἁγίων.
6The heavens shall confess thy wonders, O Lord: and thy truth in the church of the saints.
7ὅτι τίς ἐν νεφέλαις ἰσωθήσεται τῷ Κυρίῳ; καὶ τίς ὁμοιωθήσεται τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν υἱοῖς Θεοῦ;
7For who in the clouds can be compared to the Lord: or who among the sons of God shall be like to God?
8ὁ Θεὸς ἐνδοξαζόμενος ἐν βουλῇ ἁγίων, μέγας καὶ φοβερὸς ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς περικύκλῳ αὐτοῦ.
8God, who is glorified in the assembly of the saints: great and terrible above all them that are about him.
9Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων, τίς ὅμοιός σοι; δυνατὸς εἶ, Κύριε, καὶ ἡ ἀλήθειά σου κύκλῳ σου.
9O Lord God of hosts, who is like to thee? thou art mighty, O Lord, and thy truth is round about thee.
10σὺ δεσπόζεις τοῦ κράτους τῆς θαλάσσης, τὸν δὲ σάλον τῶν κυμάτων αὐτῆς σὺ καταπραυ±νεις.
10Thou rulest the power of the sea: and appeasest the motion of the waves thereof.
11σὺ ἐταπείνωσας ὡς τραυματίαν ὑπερήφανον, ἐν τῷ βραχίονι τῆς δυνάμεώς σου διεσκόρπισας τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου.
11Thou hast humbled the proud one, as one that is slain: with the arm of thy strength thou hast scattered thy enemies.
12σοί εἰσιν οἱ οὐρανοί, καὶ σή ἐστιν ἡ γῆ· τὴν οἰκουμένην καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς σὺ ἐθεμελίωσας.
12Thine are the heavens, and thine is the earth: the world and the fulness thereof thou hast founded:
13τὸν βορρᾶν καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν σὺ ἔκτισας, Θαβὼρ καὶ Ἑρμὼν ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀγαλλιάσονται.
13The north and the sea thou hast created. Thabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name:
14σὸς ὁ βραχίων μετὰ δυναστείας· κραταιωθήτω ἡ χείρ σου, ὑψωθήτω ἡ δεξιά σου.
14Thy arm is with might. Let thy hand be strengthened, and thy right hand exalted:
15δικαιοσύνη καὶ κρίμα ἑτοιμασία τοῦ θρόνου σου, ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθεια προπορεύσονται πρὸ προσώπου σου.
15Justice and judgment are the preparation of thy throne. Mercy and truth shall go before thy face:
16μακάριος ὁ λαὸς ὁ γινώσκων ἀλαλαγμόν· Κύριε, ἐν τῷ φωτὶ τοῦ προσώπου σου πορεύσονται
16Blessed is the people that knoweth jubilation. They shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance:
17καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀγαλλιάσονται ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν καὶ ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ὑψωθήσονται.
17And in thy name they shall rejoice all the day, and in thy justice they shall be exalted.
18ὅτι καύχημα τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτῶν σὺ εἶ, καὶ ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ σου ὑψωθήσεται τὸ κέρας ἡμῶν.
18For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy good pleasure shall our horn be exalted.
19ὅτι τοῦ Κυρίου ἡ ἀντίληψις καὶ τοῦ ἁγίου Ἰσραὴλ βασιλέως ἡμῶν.
19For our protection is of the Lord, and of our king the holy one of Israel.
20τότε ἐλάλησας ἐν ὁράσει τοῖς υἱοῖς σου καὶ εἶπας· ἐθέμην βοήθειαν ἐπὶ δυνατόν, ὕψωσα ἐκλεκτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ μου·
20Then thou spokest in a vision to thy saints, and saidst: I have laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of my people.
21εὗρον Δαυΐδ τὸν δοῦλόν μου, ἐν ἐλέει ἁγίῳ μου ἔχρισα αὐτόν.
21I have found David my servant: with my holy oil I have anointed him.
22ἡ γὰρ χείρ μου συναντιλήψεται αὐτῷ καὶ ὁ βραχίων μου κατισχύσει αὐτόν·
22For my hand shall help him: and my arm shall strengthen him.
23οὐκ ὠφελήσει ἐχθρὸς ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ υἱὸς ἀνομίας οὐ προσθήσει τοῦ κακῶσαι αὐτόν.
23The enemy shall have no advantage over him: nor the son of iniquity have power to hurt him.
24καὶ συγκόψω ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς μισοῦντας αὐτὸν τροπώσομαι.
24And I will cut down his enemies before his face; and them that hate him I will put to flight.
25καὶ ἡ ἀλήθειά μου καὶ τὸ ἔλεός μου μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου ὑψωθήσεται τὸ κέρας αὐτοῦ.
25And my truth and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
26καὶ θήσομαι ἐν θαλάσσῃ χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν ποταμοῖς δεξιὰν αὐτοῦ.
26And I will set his hand in the sea; and his right hand in the rivers.
27αὐτὸς ἐπικαλέσεταί με· πατήρ μου εἶ σύ, Θεός μου καὶ ἀντιλήπτωρ τῆς σωτηρίας μου·
27He shall cry out to me: Thou art my father: my God, and the support of my salvation.
28κἀγὼ πρωτότοκον θήσομαι αὐτόν, ὑψηλὸν παρὰ τοῖς βασιλεῦσι τῆς γῆς.
28And I will make him my firstborn, high above the kings of the earth.
29εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα φυλάξω αὐτῷ τὸ ἔλεός μου, καὶ ἡ διαθήκη μου πιστὴ αὐτῷ·
29I will keep my mercy for him for ever: and my covenant faithful to him.
30καὶ θήσομαι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ὡς τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
30And I will make his seed to endure for evermore: and his throne as the days of heaven.
31ἐὰν ἐγκαταλίπωσιν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ τὸν νόμον μου καὶ τοῖς κρίμασί μου μὴ πορευθῶσιν,
31And if his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments:
32ἐὰν τὰ δικαιώματά μου βεβηλώσωσι καὶ τὰς ἐντολάς μου μὴ φυλάξωσιν,
32If they profane my justices: and keep not my commandments:
33ἐπισκέψομαι ἐν ράβδῳ τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν μάστιξι τὰς ἀδικίας αὐτῶν·
33I will visit their iniquities with a rod: and their sins with stripes.
34τὸ δὲ ἔλεός μου οὐ μὴ διασκεδάσω ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν, οὐδ᾿ οὐ μὴ ἀδικήσω ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ μου,
34But my mercy I will not take away from him: nor will I suffer my truth to fail.
35οὐδ᾿ οὐ μὴ βεβηλώσω τὴν διαθήκην μου καὶ τὰ ἐκπορευόμενα διὰ τῶν χειλέων μου οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσω.
35Neither will I profane my covenant: and the words that proceed from my mouth I will not make void.
36ἅπαξ ὤμοσα ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ μου, εἰ τῷ Δαυΐδ ψεύσομαι·
36Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David:
37τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα μενεῖ καὶ ὁ θρόνος αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος ἐναντίον μου
37His seed shall endure for ever.
38καὶ ὡς ἡ σελήνη κατηρτισμένη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα· καὶ ὁ μάρτυς ἐν οὐρανῷ πιστός. (διάψαλμα).
38And his throne as the sun before me: and as the moon perfect for ever, and a faithful witness in heaven.
39σὺ δὲ ἀπώσω καὶ ἐξουδένωσας, ἀνεβάλου τὸν χριστόν σου·
39But thou hast rejected and despised: thou hast been angry with thy anointed.
40κατέστρεψας τὴν διαθήκην τοῦ δούλου σου, ἐβεβήλωσας εἰς τὴν γῆν τὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτοῦ.
40Thou hast overthrown the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his sanctuary on the earth.
41καθεῖλες πάντας τοὺς φραγμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ἔθου τὰ ὀχυρώματα αὐτοῦ δειλίαν·
41Thou hast broken down all his hedges: thou hast made his strength fear.
42διήρπασαν αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ διοδεύοντες ὁδόν, ἐγενήθη ὄνειδος τοῖς γείτοσιν αὐτοῦ.
42All that pass by the way have robbed him: he is become a reproach to his neighbours.
43ὕψωσας τὴν δεξιὰν τῶν θλιβόντων αὐτόν, εὔφρανας πάντας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ.
43Thou hast set up the right hand of them that oppress him: thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
44ἀπέστρεψας τὴν βοήθειαν τῆς ρομφαίας αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἀντελάβου αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ.
44Thou hast turned away the help of his sword; and hast not assisted him in battle.
45κατέλυσας ἀπὸ καθαρισμοῦ αὐτοῦ, τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν γῆν κατέρραξας.
45Thou hast made his purification to cease: and thou hast cast his throne down to the ground.
46ἐσμίκρυνας τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ χρόνου αὐτοῦ, κατέχεας αὐτοῦ αἰσχύνην. (διάψαλμα).
46Thou hast shortened the days of his time: thou hast covered him with confusion.
47ἕως πότε, Κύριε, ἀποστρέφῃ εἰς τέλος, ἐκκαυθήσεται ὡς πῦρ ἡ ὀργή σου;
47How long, O Lord, turnest thou away unto the end? shall thy anger burn like fire?
48μνήσθητι τίς μου ἡ ὑπόστασις· μὴ γὰρ ματαίως ἔκτισας πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων;
48Remember what my substance is for hast thou made all the children of men in vain?
49τίς ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος, ὃς ζήσεται, καὶ οὐκ ὄψεται θάνατον; ρύσεται τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἐκ χειρὸς ᾅδου; (διάψαλμα).
49Who is the man that shall live, and not see death: that shall deliver his soul from the hand of hell?
50ποῦ ἐστι τὰ ἐλέη σου τὰ ἀρχαῖα, Κύριε, ἃ ὤμοσας τῷ Δαυΐδ ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου;
50Lord, where are thy ancient mercies, according to what thou didst swear to David in thy truth?
51μνήσθητι, Κύριε, τοῦ ὀνειδισμοῦ τῶν δούλων σου, οὗ ὑπέσχον ἐν τῷ κόλπῳ πολλῶν ἐθνῶν,
51Be mindful, O Lord, of the reproach of thy servants (which I have held in my bosom) of many nations:
52οὗ ὠνείδισαν οἱ ἐχθροί σου, Κύριε, οὗ ὠνείδισαν τὸ ἀντάλλαγμα τοῦ χριστοῦ σου.
52Wherewith thy enemies have reproached, O Lord; wherewith they have reproached the change of thy anointed.
53εὐλογητὸς Κύριος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. γένοιτο γένοιτο.
53Blessed be the Lord for evermore. So be it. So be it.
