Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1I will sing of the loving kindness of the LORD forever. With my mouth, I will make known your faithfulness to all generations.
1Προσευχὴ τοῦ Μωυσῆ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ. ΚΥΡΙΕ, καταφυγὴ ἐγενήθης ἡμῖν ἐν γενεᾷ καὶ γενεᾷ·
2I indeed declare, “Love stands firm forever. You established the heavens. Your faithfulness is in them.”
2πρὸ τοῦ ὄρη γενηθῆναι καὶ πλασθῆναι τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν οἰκουμένην, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος σὺ εἶ.
3“I have made a covenant with my chosen one, I have sworn to David, my servant,
3μὴ ἀποστρέψῃς ἄνθρωπον εἰς ταπείνωσιν· καὶ εἶπας· ἐπιστρέψατε υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων. 1
4‘I will establish your offspring forever, and build up your throne to all generations.’” Selah.
4ὅτι χίλια ἔτη ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ὡς ἡμέρα ἡ ἐχθές, ἥτις διῆλθε, καὶ φυλακὴ ἐν νυκτί.
5The heavens will praise your wonders, LORD, your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
5τὰ ἐξουδενώματα αὐτῶν ἔτη ἔσονται. τὸ πρωΐ ὡσεὶ χλόη παρέλθοι,
6For who in the skies can be compared to the LORD? Who among the sons of the heavenly beings is like the LORD,
6τὸ πρωΐ ἀνθήσαι καὶ παρέλθοι, τὸ ἑσπέρας ἀποπέσοι, σκληρυνθείη καὶ ξηρανθείη.
7a very awesome God in the council of the holy ones, to be feared above all those who are around him?
7ὅτι ἐξελίπομεν ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ σου καὶ ἐν τῷ θυμῷ σου ἐταράχθημεν.
8LORD, God of Armies, who is a mighty one, like you? LORD, your faithfulness is around you.
8ἔθου τὰς ἀνομίας ἡμῶν ἐναντίον σου· αἰὼν ἡμῶν εἰς φωτισμὸν τοῦ προσώπου σου.
9You rule the pride of the sea. When its waves rise up, you calm them.
9ὅτι πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι ἡμῶν ἐξέλιπον, καὶ ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ σου ἐξελίπομεν· τὰ ἔτη ἡμῶν ὡσεὶ ἀράχνη ἐμελέτων.
10You have broken Rahab in pieces, like one of the slain. You have scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.
10αἱ ἡμέραι τῶν ἐτῶν ἡμῶν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, ἐὰν δὲ ἐν δυναστείαις, ὀγδοήκοντα ἔτη, καὶ τὸ πλεῖον αὐτῶν κόπος καὶ πόνος· ὅτι ἐπῆλθε πρᾳότης ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς, καὶ παιδευθησόμεθα.
11The heavens are yours. The earth also is yours, the world and its fullness. You have founded them.
11τίς γινώσκει τὸ κράτος τῆς ὀργῆς σου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ φόβου σου τὸν θυμόν σου ἐξαριθμήσασθαι;
12You have created the north and the south. Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.
12τὴν δεξιάν σου οὕτω γνώρισόν μοι καὶ τοὺς πεπαιδευμένους τῇ καρδίᾳ ἐν σοφίᾳ.
13You have a mighty arm. Your hand is strong, and your right hand is exalted.
13ἐπίστρεψον, Κύριε· ἕως πότε; καὶ παρακλήθητι ἐπὶ τοῖς δούλοις σου.
14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. Loving kindness and truth go before your face.
14ἐνεπλήσθημεν τὸ πρωΐ τοῦ ἐλέους σου, Κύριε, καὶ ἠγαλλιασάμεθα καὶ εὐφράνθημεν ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἡμέραις ἡμῶν· εὐφρανθείημεν
15Blessed are the people who learn to acclaim you. They walk in the light of your presence, LORD.
15ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ἡμερῶν ἐταπείνωσας ἡμᾶς, ἐτῶν, ὧν εἴδομεν κακά.
16In your name they rejoice all day. In your righteousness, they are exalted.
16καὶ ἴδε ἐπὶ τοὺς δούλους σου καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα σου καὶ ὁδήγησον τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν,
17For you are the glory of their strength. In your favor, our horn will be exalted.
17καὶ ἔστω ἡ λαμπρότης Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς, καὶ τὰ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν κατεύθυνον ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς καὶ τὸ ἔργον τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν κατεύθυνον.
18For our shield belongs to the LORD, our king to the Holy One of Israel.
