Ψαλμοί 116
1 αλληλουια ἠγάπησα ὅτι εἰσακούσεται κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου
I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
2 ὅτι ἔκλινεν τὸ οὖς αὐτοῦ ἐμοί καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις μου ἐπικαλέσομαι
Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: (Sheol h7585)
4 καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπεκαλεσάμην ὦ κύριε ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου
And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
5 ἐλεήμων ὁ κύριος καὶ δίκαιος καὶ ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλεᾷ
The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
6 φυλάσσων τὰ νήπια ὁ κύριος ἐταπεινώθην καὶ ἔσωσέν με
The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
7 ἐπίστρεψον ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὴν ἀνάπαυσίν σου ὅτι κύριος εὐηργέτησέν σε
Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
8 ὅτι ἐξείλατο τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ θανάτου τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου ἀπὸ δακρύων καὶ τοὺς πόδας μου ἀπὸ ὀλισθήματος
For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
9 εὐαρεστήσω ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν χώρᾳ ζώντων
I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
10 αλληλουια ἐπίστευσα διὸ ἐλάλησα ἐγὼ δὲ ἐταπεινώθην σφόδρα
I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly.
11 ἐγὼ εἶπα ἐν τῇ ἐκστάσει μου πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ψεύστης
I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.
12 τί ἀνταποδώσω τῷ κυρίῳ περὶ πάντων ὧν ἀνταπέδωκέν μοι
What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things he hath rendered unto me?
13 ποτήριον σωτηρίου λήμψομαι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι
I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:
15 τίμιος ἐναντίον κυρίου ὁ θάνατος τῶν ὁσίων αὐτοῦ
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 ὦ κύριε ἐγὼ δοῦλος σός ἐγὼ δοῦλος σὸς καὶ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου διέρρηξας τοὺς δεσμούς μου
O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:
17 σοὶ θύσω θυσίαν αἰνέσεως
I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
18 τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ
I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:
19 ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου κυρίου ἐν μέσῳ σου Ιερουσαλημ
In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
