Ψαλμοί 94
1 ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ τετράδι σαββάτων ὁ θεὸς ἐκδικήσεων κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἐκδικήσεων ἐπαρρησιάσατο
LORD, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.
2 ὑψώθητι ὁ κρίνων τὴν γῆν ἀπόδος ἀνταπόδοσιν τοῖς ὑπερηφάνοις
Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
3 ἕως πότε ἁμαρτωλοί κύριε ἕως πότε ἁμαρτωλοὶ καυχήσονται
LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
4 φθέγξονται καὶ λαλήσουσιν ἀδικίαν λαλήσουσιν πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν
They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
5 τὸν λαόν σου κύριε ἐταπείνωσαν καὶ τὴν κληρονομίαν σου ἐκάκωσαν
They break your people in pieces, LORD, and afflict your heritage.
6 χήραν καὶ προσήλυτον ἀπέκτειναν καὶ ὀρφανοὺς ἐφόνευσαν
They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
7 καὶ εἶπαν οὐκ ὄψεται κύριος οὐδὲ συνήσει ὁ θεὸς τοῦ Ιακωβ
They say, "The LORD will not see, neither will Jacob's God consider."
8 σύνετε δή ἄφρονες ἐν τῷ λαῷ καί μωροί ποτὲ φρονήσατε
Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
9 ὁ φυτεύσας τὸ οὖς οὐχὶ ἀκούει ἢ ὁ πλάσας τὸν ὀφθαλμὸν οὐ κατανοεῖ
He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see?
10 ὁ παιδεύων ἔθνη οὐχὶ ἐλέγξει ὁ διδάσκων ἄνθρωπον γνῶσιν
He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows.
11 κύριος γινώσκει τοὺς διαλογισμοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὅτι εἰσὶν μάταιοι
The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
12 μακάριος ἄνθρωπος ὃν ἂν σὺ παιδεύσῃς κύριε καὶ ἐκ τοῦ νόμου σου διδάξῃς αὐτὸν
Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD, and teach out of your Law;
13 τοῦ πραῦναι αὐτῷ ἀφ’ ἡμερῶν πονηρῶν ἕως οὗ ὀρυγῇ τῷ ἁμαρτωλῷ βόθρος
that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14 ὅτι οὐκ ἀπώσεται κύριος τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐγκαταλείψει
For the LORD won't reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15 ἕως οὗ δικαιοσύνη ἐπιστρέψῃ εἰς κρίσιν καὶ ἐχόμενοι αὐτῆς πάντες οἱ εὐθεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ διάψαλμα
For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
16 τίς ἀναστήσεταί μοι ἐπὶ πονηρευομένους ἢ τίς συμπαραστήσεταί μοι ἐπὶ ἐργαζομένους τὴν ἀνομίαν
Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
17 εἰ μὴ ὅτι κύριος ἐβοήθησέν μοι παρὰ βραχὺ παρῴκησεν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἡ ψυχή μου
Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
18 εἰ ἔλεγον σεσάλευται ὁ πούς μου τὸ ἔλεός σου κύριε βοηθεῖ μοι
When I said, "My foot is slipping." Your loving kindness, LORD, held me up.
19 κύριε κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν ὀδυνῶν μου ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ μου αἱ παρακλήσεις σου ἠγάπησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου
In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
20 μὴ συμπροσέσται σοι θρόνος ἀνομίας ὁ πλάσσων κόπον ἐπὶ προστάγματι
Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
21 θηρεύσουσιν ἐπὶ ψυχὴν δικαίου καὶ αἷμα ἀθῷον καταδικάσονται
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22 καὶ ἐγένετό μοι κύριος εἰς καταφυγὴν καὶ ὁ θεός μου εἰς βοηθὸν ἐλπίδος μου
But the LORD has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
23 καὶ ἀποδώσει αὐτοῖς τὴν ἀνομίαν αὐτῶν καὶ κατὰ τὴν πονηρίαν αὐτῶν ἀφανιεῖ αὐτοὺς κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν
He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. The LORD, our God, will cut them off.
