Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
1ᾨδὴ ψαλμοῦ τῷ Δαυΐδ.
2Let the redeemed by the LORD say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
2ΕΤΟΙΜΗ ἡ καρδία μου, ὁ Θεός, ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου, ᾄσομαι καὶ ψαλῶ ἐν τῇ δόξῃ μου.
3and gathered out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
3ἐξεγέρθητι, ψαλτήριον καὶ κιθάρα· ἐξεγερθήσομαι ὄρθρου.
4They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way. They found no city to live in.
4ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν λαοῖς, Κύριε, ψαλῶ σοι ἐν ἔθνεσιν,
5Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
5ὅτι μέγα ἐπάνω τῶν οὐρανῶν τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ ἕως τῶν νεφελῶν ἡ ἀλήθειά σου.
6Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
6ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς, ὁ Θεός, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου.
7He led them also by a straight way, that they might go to a city to live in.
7ὅπως ἂν ρυσθῶσιν οἱ ἀγαπητοί σου, σῶσον τῇ δεξιᾷ σου καὶ ἐπάκουσόν μου.
8Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
8ὁ Θεὸς ἐλάλησεν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ· ὑψωθήσομαι καὶ διαμεριῶ Σίκιμα, καὶ τὴν κοιλάδα τῶν σκηνῶν διαμετρήσω·
9For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
9ἐμός ἐστι Γαλαάδ, καὶ ἐμός ἐστι Μανασσῆς, καὶ Ἐφραὶμ ἀντίληψις τῆς κεφαλῆς μου, Ἰούδας βασιλεύς μου,
10Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
10Μωὰβ λέβης τῆς ἐλπίδος μου, ἐπὶ τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν ἐπιβαλῶ τὸ ὑπόδημά μου, ἐμοὶ ἀλλόφυλοι ὑπετάγησαν.
11because they rebelled against the words of God, and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
11τίς ἀπάξει με εἰς πόλιν περιοχῆς; ἢ τίς ὁδηγήσει με ἕως τῆς Ἰδουμαίας;
12Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was no one to help.
12οὐχὶ σύ, ὁ Θεός, ὁ ἀπωσάμενος ἡμᾶς; καὶ οὐκ ἐξελεύσῃ, ὁ Θεός, ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν ἡμῶν;
13Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
13δὸς ἡμῖν βοήθειαν ἐκ θλίψεως, καὶ ματαία σωτηρία ἀνθρώπου.
14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke away their chains.
14ἐν τῷ Θεῷ ποιήσωμεν δύναμιν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐξουδενώσει τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἡμῶν.
15Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
