Ψαλμοί 89
1 συνέσεως Αιθαν τῷ Ισραηλίτῃ τὰ ἐλέη σου κύριε εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ᾄσομαι εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν ἀπαγγελῶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου ἐν τῷ στόματί μου
I will sing of the mercies of YHWH for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
2 ὅτι εἶπας εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔλεος οἰκοδομηθήσεται ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς ἑτοιμασθήσεται ἡ ἀλήθειά σου
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
3 διεθέμην διαθήκην τοῖς ἐκλεκτοῖς μου ὤμοσα Δαυιδ τῷ δούλῳ μου
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4 ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος ἑτοιμάσω τὸ σπέρμα σου καὶ οἰκοδομήσω εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν τὸν θρόνον σου διάψαλμα
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Selah)
5 ἐξομολογήσονται οἱ οὐρανοὶ τὰ θαυμάσιά σου κύριε καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ ἁγίων
And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O YHWH: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 ὅτι τίς ἐν νεφέλαις ἰσωθήσεται τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ τίς ὁμοιωθήσεται τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν υἱοῖς θεοῦ
For who in the heaven can be compared unto YHWH? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto YHWH?
7 ὁ θεὸς ἐνδοξαζόμενος ἐν βουλῇ ἁγίων μέγας καὶ φοβερὸς ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς περικύκλῳ αὐτοῦ
El is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8 κύριε ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων τίς ὅμοιός σοι δυνατὸς εἶ κύριε καὶ ἡ ἀλήθειά σου κύκλῳ σου
O YHWH Elohim of hosts, who is strong like unto thee, O YAH? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?
9 σὺ δεσπόζεις τοῦ κράτους τῆς θαλάσσης τὸν δὲ σάλον τῶν κυμάτων αὐτῆς σὺ καταπραΰνεις
Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
10 σὺ ἐταπείνωσας ὡς τραυματίαν ὑπερήφανον καὶ ἐν τῷ βραχίονι τῆς δυνάμεώς σου διεσκόρπισας τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου
Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.
11 σοί εἰσιν οἱ οὐρανοί καὶ σή ἐστιν ἡ γῆ τὴν οἰκουμένην καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς σὺ ἐθεμελίωσας
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12 τὸν βορρᾶν καὶ θαλάσσας σὺ ἔκτισας Θαβωρ καὶ Ερμων ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀγαλλιάσονται
The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13 σὸς ὁ βραχίων μετὰ δυναστείας κραταιωθήτω ἡ χείρ σου ὑψωθήτω ἡ δεξιά σου
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
14 δικαιοσύνη καὶ κρίμα ἑτοιμασία τοῦ θρόνου σου ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθεια προπορεύσεται πρὸ προσώπου σου
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
15 μακάριος ὁ λαὸς ὁ γινώσκων ἀλαλαγμόν κύριε ἐν τῷ φωτὶ τοῦ προσώπου σου πορεύσονται
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O YHWH, in the light of thy countenance.
16 καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἀγαλλιάσονται ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν καὶ ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ὑψωθήσονται
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 ὅτι τὸ καύχημα τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτῶν εἶ σύ καὶ ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ σου ὑψωθήσεται τὸ κέρας ἡμῶν
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 ὅτι τοῦ κυρίου ἡ ἀντίλημψις καὶ τοῦ ἁγίου Ισραηλ βασιλέως ἡμῶν
For YHWH is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 τότε ἐλάλησας ἐν ὁράσει τοῖς ὁσίοις σου καὶ εἶπας ἐθέμην βοήθειαν ἐπὶ δυνατόν ὕψωσα ἐκλεκτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ μου
Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
20 εὗρον Δαυιδ τὸν δοῦλόν μου ἐν ἐλαίῳ ἁγίῳ μου ἔχρισα αὐτόν
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 ἡ γὰρ χείρ μου συναντιλήμψεται αὐτῷ καὶ ὁ βραχίων μου κατισχύσει αὐτόν
With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22 οὐκ ὠφελήσει ἐχθρὸς ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ υἱὸς ἀνομίας οὐ προσθήσει τοῦ κακῶσαι αὐτόν
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 καὶ συγκόψω τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς μισοῦντας αὐτὸν τροπώσομαι
And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24 καὶ ἡ ἀλήθειά μου καὶ τὸ ἔλεός μου μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου ὑψωθήσεται τὸ κέρας αὐτοῦ
But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 καὶ θήσομαι ἐν θαλάσσῃ χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν ποταμοῖς δεξιὰν αὐτοῦ
I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 αὐτὸς ἐπικαλέσεταί με πατήρ μου εἶ σύ θεός μου καὶ ἀντιλήμπτωρ τῆς σωτηρίας μου
He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my El, and the rock of my salvation.
27 κἀγὼ πρωτότοκον θήσομαι αὐτόν ὑψηλὸν παρὰ τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν τῆς γῆς
Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28 εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα φυλάξω αὐτῷ τὸ ἔλεός μου καὶ ἡ διαθήκη μου πιστὴ αὐτῷ
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29 καὶ θήσομαι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ὡς τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 ἐὰν ἐγκαταλίπωσιν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ τὸν νόμον μου καὶ τοῖς κρίμασίν μου μὴ πορευθῶσιν
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 ἐὰν τὰ δικαιώματά μου βεβηλώσουσιν καὶ τὰς ἐντολάς μου μὴ φυλάξωσιν
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 ἐπισκέψομαι ἐν ῥάβδῳ τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν μάστιξιν τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 τὸ δὲ ἔλεός μου οὐ μὴ διασκεδάσω ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ μὴ ἀδικήσω ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ μου
Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 οὐδὲ μὴ βεβηλώσω τὴν διαθήκην μου καὶ τὰ ἐκπορευόμενα διὰ τῶν χειλέων μου οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσω
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35 ἅπαξ ὤμοσα ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ μου εἰ τῷ Δαυιδ ψεύσομαι
Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36 τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα μενεῖ καὶ ὁ θρόνος αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος ἐναντίον μου
His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 καὶ ὡς ἡ σελήνη κατηρτισμένη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ ὁ μάρτυς ἐν οὐρανῷ πιστός διάψαλμα
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. (Selah)
38 σὺ δὲ ἀπώσω καὶ ἐξουδένωσας ἀνεβάλου τὸν χριστόν σου
But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
39 κατέστρεψας τὴν διαθήκην τοῦ δούλου σου ἐβεβήλωσας εἰς τὴν γῆν τὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτοῦ
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40 καθεῖλες πάντας τοὺς φραγμοὺς αὐτοῦ ἔθου τὰ ὀχυρώματα αὐτοῦ δειλίαν
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
41 διήρπασαν αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ διοδεύοντες ὁδόν ἐγενήθη ὄνειδος τοῖς γείτοσιν αὐτοῦ
All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
42 ὕψωσας τὴν δεξιὰν τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ εὔφρανας πάντας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ
Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 ἀπέστρεψας τὴν βοήθειαν τῆς ῥομφαίας αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἀντελάβου αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ
Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
44 κατέλυσας ἀπὸ καθαρισμοῦ αὐτόν τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν γῆν κατέρραξας
Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45 ἐσμίκρυνας τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ χρόνου αὐτοῦ κατέχεας αὐτοῦ αἰσχύνην διάψαλμα
The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
46 ἕως πότε κύριε ἀποστρέψεις εἰς τέλος ἐκκαυθήσεται ὡς πῦρ ἡ ὀργή σου
How long, YHWH? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
47 μνήσθητι τίς μου ἡ ὑπόστασις μὴ γὰρ ματαίως ἔκτισας πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων
Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
48 τίς ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος ὃς ζήσεται καὶ οὐκ ὄψεται θάνατον ῥύσεται τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἐκ χειρὸς ᾅδου διάψαλμα (Sheol h7585)
What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 ποῦ εἰσιν τὰ ἐλέη σου τὰ ἀρχαῖα κύριε ἃ ὤμοσας τῷ Δαυιδ ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου
YHWH, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
50 μνήσθητι κύριε τοῦ ὀνειδισμοῦ τῶν δούλων σου οὗ ὑπέσχον ἐν τῷ κόλπῳ μου πολλῶν ἐθνῶν
Remember, YHWH, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
51 οὗ ὠνείδισαν οἱ ἐχθροί σου κύριε οὗ ὠνείδισαν τὸ ἀντάλλαγμα τοῦ χριστοῦ σου
Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O YHWH; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
52 εὐλογητὸς κύριος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα γένοιτο γένοιτο
Blessed be YHWH for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
