< Ψαλμοί 146 >
1 αλληλουια Αγγαιου καὶ Ζαχαριου αἴνει ἡ ψυχή μου τὸν κύριον
Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2 αἰνέσω κύριον ἐν ζωῇ μου ψαλῶ τῷ θεῷ μου ἕως ὑπάρχω
While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.
3 μὴ πεποίθατε ἐπ’ ἄρχοντας καὶ ἐφ’ υἱοὺς ἀνθρώπων οἷς οὐκ ἔστιν σωτηρία
Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
4 ἐξελεύσεται τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπιστρέψει εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἀπολοῦνται πάντες οἱ διαλογισμοὶ αὐτῶν
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
5 μακάριος οὗ ὁ θεὸς Ιακωβ βοηθός ἡ ἐλπὶς αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ κύριον τὸν θεὸν αὐτοῦ
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
6 τὸν ποιήσαντα τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτοῖς τὸν φυλάσσοντα ἀλήθειαν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
Who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is in them: who keepeth truth for ever:
7 ποιοῦντα κρίμα τοῖς ἀδικουμένοις διδόντα τροφὴν τοῖς πεινῶσιν κύριος λύει πεπεδημένους
Who executeth judgment for the oppressed: who giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:
8 κύριος ἀνορθοῖ κατερραγμένους κύριος σοφοῖ τυφλούς κύριος ἀγαπᾷ δικαίους
The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:
9 κύριος φυλάσσει τοὺς προσηλύτους ὀρφανὸν καὶ χήραν ἀναλήμψεται καὶ ὁδὸν ἁμαρτωλῶν ἀφανιεῖ
The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
10 βασιλεύσει κύριος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ὁ θεός σου Σιων εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν
The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
