Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
1Ἀλληλούϊα. ΕΠΙΣΤΕΥΣΑ, διὸ ἐλάλησα· ἐγὼ δὲ ἐταπεινώθην σφόδρα.
2Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
2ἐγὼ δὲ εἶπα ἐν τῇ ἐκστάσει μου· πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ψεύστης.
3But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
3τί ἀνταποδώσω τῷ Κυρίῳ περὶ πάντων, ὧν ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι;
4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
4ποτήριον σωτηρίου λήψομαι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι.
5They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
5τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ Κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ.
6They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
6τίμιος ἐναντίον Κυρίου ὁ θάνατος τῶν ὁσίων αὐτοῦ.
7They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
7ὦ Κύριε, ἐγὼ δοῦλος σός, ἐγὼ δοῦλος σὸς καὶ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου. διέρρηξας τοὺς δεσμούς μου,
8Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
8σοὶ θύσω θυσίαν αἰνέσεως καὶ ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι.
9Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
9τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ Κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ,
10House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
10ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου Κυρίου ἐν μέσῳ σου, Ἱερουσαλήμ.
11You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
