< Ψαλμοί 108 >
1 ᾠδὴ ψαλμοῦ τῷ Δαυιδ ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ὁ θεός ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ᾄσομαι καὶ ψαλῶ ἐν τῇ δόξῃ μου
A Song, a Melody: David’s. Fixed, is my heart, O God, I will sing and touch the strings, even mine honour.
2 ἐξεγέρθητι ψαλτήριον καὶ κιθάρα ἐξεγερθήσομαι ὄρθρου
Awake, O harp and lyre, I will awaken the dawn!
3 ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν λαοῖς κύριε καὶ ψαλῶ σοι ἐν ἔθνεσιν
I will thank thee among the peoples, O Yahweh, and will sing praise unto thee, among the tribes of men.
4 ὅτι μέγα ἐπάνω τῶν οὐρανῶν τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ ἕως τῶν νεφελῶν ἡ ἀλήθειά σου
For, great, above the heavens, is thy lovingkindness, and, as far as the skies, thy faithfulness.
5 ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς ὁ θεός καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου
Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And, above all the earth, be thy glory.
6 ὅπως ἂν ῥυσθῶσιν οἱ ἀγαπητοί σου σῶσον τῇ δεξιᾷ σου καὶ ἐπάκουσόν μου
To the end thy beloved ones may be delivered, Oh save thou with thy right hand and answer me!
7 ὁ θεὸς ἐλάλησεν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ ὑψωθήσομαι καὶ διαμεριῶ Σικιμα καὶ τὴν κοιλάδα τῶν σκηνῶν διαμετρήσω
God, hath spoken in his holiness, I will exult! I will apportion Shechem! And, the Vale of Succoth, will I measure out;
8 ἐμός ἐστιν Γαλααδ καὶ ἐμός ἐστιν Μανασση καὶ Εφραιμ ἀντίλημψις τῆς κεφαλῆς μου Ιουδας βασιλεύς μου
Mine, is Gilead—mine, Manasseh, but, Ephraim, is the defence of my head, Judah, is my commander’s staff;
9 Μωαβ λέβης τῆς ἐλπίδος μου ἐπὶ τὴν Ιδουμαίαν ἐκτενῶ τὸ ὑπόδημά μου ἐμοὶ ἀλλόφυλοι ὑπετάγησαν
Moab, is my wash-bowl, Upon Edom, will I throw my shoe, Over Philistia, raise a shout of triumph.
10 τίς ἀπάξει με εἰς πόλιν περιοχῆς τίς ὁδηγήσει με ἕως τῆς Ιδουμαίας
Who will conduct me to a fortified city? Who will lead me as far as Edom?
11 οὐχὶ σύ ὁ θεός ὁ ἀπωσάμενος ἡμᾶς καὶ οὐκ ἐξελεύσῃ ὁ θεός ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν ἡμῶν
Hast not thou, O God, rejected us? and wilt not go forth, O God, with our hosts.
12 δὸς ἡμῖν βοήθειαν ἐκ θλίψεως καὶ ματαία σωτηρία ἀνθρώπου
Grant us help out of distress, for, vain, is the deliverance of man:
13 ἐν τῷ θεῷ ποιήσομεν δύναμιν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐξουδενώσει τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἡμῶν
In God, shall we do valiantly, He himself, therefore, shall tread down our adversaries.
