Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
1ᾨδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. ΕΥΦΡΑΝΘΗΝ ἐπὶ τοῖς εἰρηκόσι μοι· εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου πορευσόμεθα.
2My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
2ἑστῶτες ἦσαν οἱ πόδες ἡμῶν ἐν ταῖς αὐλαῖς σου, Ἱερουσαλήμ.
3He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.
3Ἱερουσαλὴμ οἰκοδομουμένη ὡς πόλις, ἧς ἡ μετοχὴ αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό.
4Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
4ἐκεῖ γὰρ ἀνέβησαν αἱ φυλαί, φυλαὶ Κυρίου, μαρτύριον τῷ Ἰσραήλ, τοῦ ἐξομολογήσασθαι τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου·
5The LORD is your keeper. The LORD is your shade on your right hand.
5ὅτι ἐκεῖ ἐκάθισαν θρόνοι εἰς κρίσιν, θρόνοι ἐπὶ οἶκον Δαυΐδ.
6The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
6ἐρωτήσατε δὴ τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην τὴν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ εὐθηνία τοῖς ἀγαπῶσί σε·
7The LORD will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.
7γενέσθω δὴ εἰρήνη ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου καὶ εὐθηνία ἐν ταῖς πυργοβάρεσί σου.
8The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.
8ἕνεκα τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου καὶ τῶν πλησίον μου, ἐλάλουν δὴ εἰρήνην περὶ σοῦ·
