Delphi Septuagint, page 985
[5] I am blighted like grass, and my heart is dried up; for I have forgotten to eat my bread.
[6] ἀπὸ φωνῆς τοῦ στεναγμοῦ μου ἐκολλήθη τὸ ὀστοῦν μου τῇ σαρκί μου.
[6] By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bone has cleaved to my flesh.
[7] ὡμοιώθην πελεκᾶνι ἐρημικῷ, ἐγενήθην ὡσεὶ νυκτικόραξ ἐν οἰκοπέδῳ,
[7] I have become like a pelican of the wilderness; I have become like an owl in a ruined house.
[8] ἠγρύπνησα καὶ ἐγενόμην ὡς στρουθίον μονάζον ἐπὶ δώματος.
[8] I have watched, and am become as a sparrow dwelling alone on a roof.
[9] ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ὠνείδιζόν με οἱ ἐχθροί μου, καὶ οἱ ἐπαινοῦντές με κατ᾿ ἐμοῦ ὤμνυον.
[9] All the day long mine enemies have reproached me; and they that praised me have sworn against me.
[10] ὅτι σποδὸν ὡσεὶ ἄρτον ἔφαγον καὶ τὸ πόμα μου μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ ἐκίρνων
[10] For I have eaten ashes as it were bread, and mingled my drink with weeping;
[11] ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς ὀργῆς σου καὶ τοῦ θυμοῦ σου, ὅτι ἐπάρας κατέῤῥαξάς με.
[11] because of thine anger and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and dashed me down.
[12] αἱ ἡμέραι μου ὡσεὶ σκιὰ ἐκλίθησαν, κἀγὼ ὡσεὶ χόρτος ἐξηράνθην.
[12] My days have declined like a shadow; and I am withered like grass.
[13] σὺ δέ, Κύριε, εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα μένεις, καὶ τὸ μνημόσυνόν σου εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν.
[13] But thou, Lord, endurest for ever, and thy memorial to generation and generation.
[14] σὺ ἀναστὰς οἰκτειρήσεις τὴν Σιών, ὅτι καιρὸς τοῦ οἰκτειρῆσαι αὐτήν, ὅτι ἥκει καιρός·
[14] Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Sion: for it is time to have mercy upon her, for the set time is come.
[15] ὅτι εὐδόκησαν οἱ δοῦλοί σου τοὺς λίθους αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸν χοῦν αὐτῆς οἰκτειρήσουσι.
[15] For thy servants have taken pleasure in her stones, and they shall pity her dust.
[16] καὶ φοβηθήσονται τὰ ἔθνη τὸ ὄνομά σου, Κύριε, καὶ πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς τὴν δόξαν σου,
[16] So the nations shall fear thy name, O Lord, and all kings thy glory.
[17] ὅτι οἰκοδομήσει Κύριος τὴν Σιὼν καὶ ὀφθήσεται ἐν τῇ δόξῃ αὐτοῦ.
[17] For the Lord shall build up Sion, and shall appear in his glory.
[18] ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὴν προσευχὴν τῶν ταπεινῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐξουδένωσε τὴν δέησιν αὐτῶν.
[18] He has had regard to the prayer of the lowly, and has not despised their petition.
[19] γραφήτω αὕτη εἰς γενεὰν ἑτέραν, καὶ λαὸς ὁ κτιζόμενος αἰνέσει τὸν Κύριον.
[19] Let this be written for another generation; and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord.
[20] ὅτι ἐξέκυψεν ἐξ ὕψους ἁγίου αὐτοῦ, Κύριος ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐπέβλεψε
[20] For he has looked out from the height of his sanctuary; the Lord looked upon the earth from heaven;
[21] τοῦ ἀκοῦσαι τοῦ στεναγμοῦ τῶν πεπεδημένων, τοῦ λῦσαι τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν τεθανατωμένων,
[21] to hear the groaning of the fettered ones, to loosen the sons of the slain;
[22] τοῦ ἀναγγεῖλαι ἐν Σιὼν τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου καὶ τὴν αἴνεσιν αὐτοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ
[22] to proclaim the name of the Lord in Sion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
[23] ἐν τῷ συναχθῆναι λαοὺς ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ καὶ βασιλεῖς τοῦ δουλεύειν τῷ Κυρίῳ.
[23] when the people are gathered together, and the kings, to serve the Lord.
[24] ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ἐν ὁδῷ ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ· τὴν ὀλιγότητα τῶν ἡμερῶν μου ἀνάγγειλόν μοι·
[24] He answered him in the way of his strength: tell me the fewness of my days.
[25] μὴ ἀναγάγῃς με ἐν ἡμίσει ἡμερῶν μου· ἐν γενεᾷ γενεῶν τὰ ἔτη σου.
[25] Take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are through all generations.
[26] κατ᾿ ἀρχὰς σύ, Κύριε, τὴν γῆν ἐθεμελίωσας, καὶ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν σού εἰσιν οἱ οὐρανοί·
[26] In the beginning thou, O Lord, didst lay the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands.
[27] αὐτοὶ ἀπολοῦνται, σὺ δὲ διαμένεις, καὶ πάντες ὡς ἱμάτιον παλαιωθήσονται, καὶ ὡσεὶ περιβόλαιον ἑλίξεις αὐτοὺς καὶ ἀλλαγήσονται·
[27] They shall perish, but thou remainest: and they all shall wax old as a garment; and as a vesture shalt thou fold them, and they shall be changed.
[28] σὺ δὲ ὁ αὐτὸς εἶ, καὶ τὰ ἔτη σου οὐκ ἐκλείψουσιν.
[28] But thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
[29] οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν δούλων σου κατασκηνώσουσι, καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατευθυνθήσεται.
[29] The children of thy servants shall dwell securely, and their seed shall prosper for ever.
Ψαλμός 102
Psalm 102
Τῷ Δαυΐδ.
A Psalm of David.
ΕΥΛΟΓΕΙ, ἡ ψυχή μου, τὸν Κύριον καί, πάντα τὰ ἐντός μου, τὸ ὄνομα τὸ ἅγιον αὐτοῦ·
Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
[2] εὐλόγει, ἡ ψυχή μου, τὸν Κύριον καὶ μὴ ἐπιλανθάνου πάσας τὰς ἀνταποδόσεις αὐτοῦ·
[2] Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his praises:
[3] τὸν εὐιλατεύοντα πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας σου, τὸν ἰώμενον πάσας τὰς νόσους σου·
[3] who forgives all thy transgressions, who heals all thy diseases;
[4] τὸν λυτρούμενον ἐκ φθορᾶς τὴν ζωήν σου, τὸν στεφανοῦντά σε ἐν ἐλέει καὶ οἰκτιρμοῖς·
[4] who redeems thy life from corruption; who crowns thee with mercy and compassion;
[5] τὸν ἐμπιπλῶντα ἐν ἀγαθοῖς τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν σου, ἀνακαινισθήσεται ὡς ἀετοῦ ἡ νεότης σου.
[5] who satisfies thy desire with good things: so that thy youth shall be renewed like that of the eagle.
[6] ποιῶν ἐλεημοσύνας ὁ Κύριος καὶ κρῖμα πᾶσι τοῖς ἀδικουμένοις.
[6] The Lord executes mercy and judgment for all that are injured.
[7] ἐγνώρισε τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ τῷ Μωυσῇ, τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ τὰ θελήματα αὐτοῦ.
[7] He made known his ways to Moses, his will to the children of Israel.
[8] οἰκτίρμων καὶ ἐλεήμων ὁ Κύριος, μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος·
[8] The Lord is compassionate and pitiful, long-suffering, and full of mercy.
[9] οὐκ εἰς τέλος ὀργισθήσεται, οὐδὲ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα μηνιεῖ·
[9] He will not be always angry; neither will he be wrathful for ever.
[10] οὐ κατὰ τὰς ἀνομίας ἡμῶν ἐποίησεν ἡμῖν, οὐδὲ κατὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν ἀνταπέδωκεν ἡμῖν,
[10] He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor recompensed us according to our iniquities.
[11] ὅτι κατὰ τὸ ὕψος τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἐκραταίωσε Κύριος τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτόν·
[11] For as the heaven is high above the earth, the Lord has so increased his mercy toward them that fear him.
[12] καθόσον ἀπέχουσιν ἀνατολαὶ ἀπὸ δυσμῶν, ἐμάκρυνεν ἀφ᾿ ἡμῶν τὰς ἀνομίας ἡμῶν.
[12] As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
[13] καθὼς οἰκτείρει πατὴρ υἱούς, ᾠκτείρησε Κύριος τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτόν,
[13] As a father pities his children, the Lord pities them that fear him.
[14] ὅτι αὐτὸς ἔγνω τὸ πλάσμα ἡμῶν, ἐμνήσθη ὅτι χοῦς ἐσμεν.
[14] For he knows our frame: remember that we are dust.
[15] ἄνθρωπος, ὡσεὶ χόρτος αἱ ἡμέραι αὐτοῦ· ὡσεὶ ἄνθος τοῦ ἀγροῦ, οὕτως ἐξανθήσει·
[15] As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so shall he flourish.
[16] ὅτι πνεῦμα διῆλθεν ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ οὐχ ὑπάρξει καὶ οὐκ ἐπιγνώσεται ἔτι τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ.
[16] For the wind passes over it, and it shall not be; and it shall know its place no more.
[17] τὸ δὲ ἔλεος τοῦ Κυρίου ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος ἐπὶ τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτόν, καὶ ἡ δικαιοσύνη αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ υἱοῖς υἱῶν
[17] But the mercy of the Lord is from generation to generation upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children;
[18] τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ καὶ μεμνημένοις τῶν ἐντολῶν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτάς.
[18] to them that keep his covenant, and remember his commandments to do them.
[19] Κύριος ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ἡτοίμασε τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ πάντων δεσπόζει.
[19] The Lord has prepared his throne in the heaven; and his kingdom rules over all.
[20] εὐλογεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι αὐτοῦ, δυνατοὶ ἰσχύϊ ποιοῦντες τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἀκοῦσαι τῆς φωνῆς τῶν λόγων αὐτοῦ.
[20] Bless the Lord, all ye his angels, mighty in strength, who perform his bidding, ready to hearken to the voice of his words.
[21] εὐλογεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις αὐτοῦ, λειτουργοὶ αὐτοῦ ποιοῦντες τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ·
[21] Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his that do his will.
[22] εὐλογεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, πάντα τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ, ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ τῆς δεσποτείας αὐτοῦ· εὐλόγει, ἡ ψυχή μου, τὸν Κύριον.
[22] Bless the Lord, all his works, in every place of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
Ψαλμός 103
Psalm 103
Τῷ Δαυΐδ.
A Psalm of David.
ΕΥΛΟΓΕΙ, ἡ ψυχή μου, τὸν Κύριον. Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, ἐμεγαλύνθης σφόδρα, ἐξομολόγησιν καὶ μεγαλοπρέπειαν ἐνεδύσω
Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou hast clothed thyself with praise and honour:
[2] ἀναβαλλόμενος φῶς ὡς ἱμάτιον, ἐκτείνων τὸν οὐρανὸν ὡσεὶ δέῤῥιν·
[2] who dost robe thyself with light as with a garment; spreading out the heaven as a curtain.
[3] ὁ στεγάζων ἐν ὕδασι τὰ ὑπερῷα αὐτοῦ, ὁ τιθεὶς νέφη τὴν ἐπίβασιν αὐτοῦ, ὁ περιπατῶν ἐπὶ πτερύγων ἀνέμων·
[3] Who covers his chambers with waters; who makes the clouds his chariot; who walks on the wings of the wind.
[4] ὁ ποιῶν τοὺς ἀγγέλους αὐτοῦ πνεύματα καὶ τοὺς λειτουργοὺς αὐτοῦ πυρὸς φλόγα.
[4] Who makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flaming fire.
[5] ὁ θεμελιῶν τὴν γῆν ἐπὶ τὴν ἀσφάλειαν αὐτῆς, οὐ κλιθήσεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος.
[5] Who establishes the earth on her sure foundation: it shall not be moved for ever.
[6] ἄβυσσος ὡς ἱμάτιον τὸ περιβόλαιον αὐτοῦ, ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων στήσονται ὕδατα·
[6] The deep, as it were a garment, is his covering: the waters shall stand on the hills.
[7] ἀπὸ ἐπιτιμήσεώς σου φεύξονται, ἀπὸ φωνῆς βροντῆς σου δειλιάσουσιν.
[7] At thy rebuke they shall flee; at the voice of thy thunder they shall be alarmed.
[8] ἀναβαίνουσιν ὄρη καὶ καταβαίνουσι πεδία εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἐθεμελίωσας αὐτά·
[8] They go up to the mountains, and down to the plains, to the place which thou hast founded for them.
[9] ὅριον ἔθου, ὃ οὐ παρελεύσονται, οὐδὲ ἐπιστρέψουσι καλύψαι τὴν γῆν.
[9] Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass, neither shall they turn again to cover the earth.
[10] ὁ ἐξαποστέλλων πηγὰς ἐν φάραγξιν, ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὀρέων διελεύσονται ὕδατα·
[10] He sends forth his fountains among the valleys: the waters shall run between the mountains.
[11] ποτιοῦσι πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ, προσδέξονται ὄναγροι εἰς δίψαν αὐτῶν·
[11] They shall give drink to all the wild beasts of the field: the wild asses shall take of them to quench their thirst.
[12] ἐπ᾿ αὐτὰ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατασκηνώσει, ἐκ μέσου τῶν πετρῶν δώσουσι φωνήν.
[12] By them shall the birds of the sky lodge: they shall utter a voice out of the midst of the rocks.
[13] ποτίζων ὄρη ἐκ τῶν ὑπερῴων αὐτοῦ, ἀπὸ καρποῦ τῶν ἔργων σου χορτασθήσεται ἡ γῆ.
[13] He waters the mountains from his chambers: the earth shall be satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
[14] ὁ ἐξανατέλλων χόρτον τοῖς κτήνεσι καὶ χλόην τῇ δουλείᾳ τῶν ἀνθρώπων τοῦ ἐξαγαγεῖν ἄρτον ἐκ τῆς γῆς·
[14] He makes grass to grow for the cattle, and green herb for the service of men, to bring bread out of the earth;
[15] καὶ οἶνος εὐφραίνει καρδίαν ἀνθρώπου τοῦ ἱλαρῦναι πρόσωπον ἐν ἐλαίῳ, καὶ ἄρτος καρδίαν ἀνθρώπου στηρίζει.
[15] and wine makes glad the heart of man, to make his face cheerful with oil: and bread strengthens man’s heart.
[16] χορτασθήσονται τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου, αἱ κέδροι τοῦ Λιβάνου, ἃς ἐφύτευσας.
[16] The trees of the plain shall be full of sap; even the cedars of Libanus which he has planted.
[17] ἐκεῖ στρουθία ἐννοσσεύσουσι, τοῦ ἐρωδιοῦ ἡ οἰκία ἡγεῖται αὐτῶν.
[17] There the sparrows will build their nests; and the house of the heron takes the lead among them.
[18] ὄρη τὰ ὑψηλὰ ταῖς ἐλάφοις, πέτρα καταφυγὴ τοῖς λαγωοῖς.
[18] The high mountains are a refuge for the stags, and the rock for the rabbits.
[19] ἐποίησε σελήνην εἰς καιρούς, ὁ ἥλιος ἔγνω τὴν δύσιν αὐτοῦ.
[19] He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knows his going down.
[20] ἔθου σκότος, καὶ ἐγένετο νύξ· ἐν αὐτῇ διελεύσονται πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ δρυμοῦ.
[20] Thou didst make darkness, and it was night; in it all the wild beasts of the forest will be abroad:
[21] σκύμνοι ὠρυόμενοι τοῦ ἁρπάσαι καὶ ζητῆσαι παρὰ τῷ Θεῷ βρῶσιν αὐτοῖς.
[21] even young lions roaring for prey, and to seek meat for themselves from God.
[22] ἀνέτειλεν ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ συνήχθησαν καὶ εἰς τὰς μάνδρας αὐτῶν κοιτασθήσονται.
[22] The sun arises, and they shall be gathered together, and shall lie down in their dens.
[23] ἐξελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος ἐπὶ τὸ ἔργον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν ἐργασίαν αὐτοῦ ἕως ἑσπέρας.
