Ψαλμοί 83
1 ᾠδὴ ψαλμοῦ τῷ Ασαφ ὁ θεός τίς ὁμοιωθήσεταί σοι μὴ σιγήσῃς μηδὲ καταπραΰνῃς ὁ θεός
A song. A Psalm by Asaph. God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
2 ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου ἤχησαν καὶ οἱ μισοῦντές σε ἦραν κεφαλήν
For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
3 ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν σου κατεπανουργεύσαντο γνώμην καὶ ἐβουλεύσαντο κατὰ τῶν ἁγίων σου
They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
4 εἶπαν δεῦτε καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσωμεν αὐτοὺς ἐξ ἔθνους καὶ οὐ μὴ μνησθῇ τὸ ὄνομα Ισραηλ ἔτι
“Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
5 ὅτι ἐβουλεύσαντο ἐν ὁμονοίᾳ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό κατὰ σοῦ διαθήκην διέθεντο
For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.
6 τὰ σκηνώματα τῶν Ιδουμαίων καὶ οἱ Ισμαηλῖται Μωαβ καὶ οἱ Αγαρηνοί
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
7 Γεβαλ καὶ Αμμων καὶ Αμαληκ καὶ ἀλλόφυλοι μετὰ τῶν κατοικούντων Τύρον
Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 καὶ γὰρ καὶ Ασσουρ συμπαρεγένετο μετ’ αὐτῶν ἐγενήθησαν εἰς ἀντίλημψιν τοῖς υἱοῖς Λωτ διάψαλμα
Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 ποίησον αὐτοῖς ὡς τῇ Μαδιαμ καὶ τῷ Σισαρα ὡς ὁ Ιαβιν ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Κισων
Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
10 ἐξωλεθρεύθησαν ἐν Αενδωρ ἐγενήθησαν ὡσεὶ κόπρος τῇ γῇ
who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
11 θοῦ τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτῶν ὡς τὸν Ωρηβ καὶ Ζηβ καὶ Ζεβεε καὶ Σαλμανα πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτῶν
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 οἵτινες εἶπαν κληρονομήσωμεν ἑαυτοῖς τὸ ἁγιαστήριον τοῦ θεοῦ
who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
13 ὁ θεός μου θοῦ αὐτοὺς ὡς τροχόν ὡς καλάμην κατὰ πρόσωπον ἀνέμου
My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.
14 ὡσεὶ πῦρ ὃ διαφλέξει δρυμόν ὡς εἰ φλὸξ κατακαύσαι ὄρη
As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,
15 οὕτως καταδιώξεις αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ καταιγίδι σου καὶ ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ σου ταράξεις αὐτούς
so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.
16 πλήρωσον τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἀτιμίας καὶ ζητήσουσιν τὸ ὄνομά σου κύριε
Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, LORD.
17 αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ταραχθήτωσαν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ ἐντραπήτωσαν καὶ ἀπολέσθωσαν
Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
18 καὶ γνώτωσαν ὅτι ὄνομά σοι κύριος σὺ μόνος ὕψιστος ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν
that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
