Ψαλμοί 105
1 Δοξολογείτε τον Κύριον· επικαλείσθε το όνομα αυτού· κάμετε γνωστά εν τοις λαοίς τα έργα αυτού.
Give the Lord thanks, worship his wonderful nature, let people know what he's done!
2 Ψάλλετε εις αυτόν· ψαλμωδείτε εις αυτόν· λαλείτε περί πάντων των θαυμασίων αυτού.
Sing to him, sing his praises; tell everyone the great things he's done!
3 Καυχάσθε εις το άγιον αυτού όνομα· ας ευφραίνεται η καρδία των εκζητούντων τον Κύριον.
Be proud of his holy character; be happy, all who come to the Lord!
4 Ζητείτε τον Κύριον και την δύναμιν αυτού· εκζητείτε το πρόσωπον αυτού διαπαντός.
Look for the Lord, and his strength; always look to be in his presence.
5 Μνημονεύετε των θαυμασίων αυτού τα οποία έκαμε· των τεραστίων αυτού και των κρίσεων του στόματος αυτού·
Remember all the wonderful things he's done, the miracles he's performed, and the judgments he's carried out,
6 Σπέρμα Αβραάμ του δούλου αυτού, υιοί Ιακώβ, οι εκλεκτοί αυτού.
descendants of Abraham, children of Israel, his chosen people.
7 Αυτός είναι Κύριος ο Θεός ημών· εν πάση τη γη είναι αι κρίσεις αυτού.
He is the Lord, our God, his judgments cover the whole earth.
8 Μνημονεύετε πάντοτε της διαθήκης αυτού, του λόγου, τον οποίον προσέταξεν εις χιλίας γενεάς,
He remembers his agreement forever, the promise he made lasts for a thousand generations;
9 της διαθήκης, την οποίαν έκαμε προς τον Αβραάμ, και του όρκου αυτού προς τον Ισαάκ·
the agreement he made with Abraham, the vow he gave to Isaac.
10 και εβεβαίωσεν αυτόν προς τον Ιακώβ διά νόμου, προς τον Ισραήλ διά διαθήκην αιώνιον,
The Lord legally confirmed it with Jacob, he made this binding agreement with Israel:
11 λέγων, Εις σε θέλω δώσει την γην Χαναάν, μερίδα της κληρονομίας σας.
saying to you, “I will give the land of Canaan for you to possess.”
12 Ενώ ήσαν αυτοί ολιγοστοί τον αριθμόν, ολίγοι, και πάροικοι εν αυτή,
He said this when they were only a few, just a small group of foreigners in the land.
13 και διήρχοντο από έθνους εις έθνος, από βασιλείου εις άλλον λαόν,
They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to the next.
14 δεν αφήκεν άνθρωπον να αδικήση αυτούς· μάλιστα υπέρ αυτών ήλεγξε βασιλείς,
He didn't let anyone one treat them badly; warning kings to leave them alone:
15 λέγων, μη εγγίσητε τους κεχρισμένους μου και μη κακοποιήσητε τους προφήτας μου.
“Don't touch my chosen people; don't harm my prophets!”
16 Και εκάλεσε πείναν επί την γήν· συνέτριψε παν στήριγμα άρτου.
He caused a famine in the Land of Canaan so that there was no food.
17 Απέστειλεν έμπροσθεν αυτών άνθρωπον, Ιωσήφ τον πωληθέντα ως δούλον·
Before that he sent a man, Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18 του οποίου τους πόδας έσφιγξαν εν δεσμοίς· έβαλον αυτόν εις τα σίδηρα·
They hurt his feet by placing them in shackles, and they put an iron collar around his neck,
19 εωσού έλθη ο λόγος αυτού· ο λόγος του Κυρίου εδοκίμασεν αυτόν.
until the time predicted came when the Lord tested him.
20 Απέστειλεν ο βασιλεύς και έλυσεν αυτόν· ο άρχων των λαών, και ηλευθέρωσεν αυτόν.
The king sent for him and released him; the king of the people set him free.
21 Κατέστησεν αυτόν κύριον του οίκου αυτού, και άρχοντα επί πάντων των κτημάτων αυτού·
He put Joseph in charge of the royal household, manager of everything he had,
22 διά να παιδεύη τους άρχοντας αυτού κατά την αρέσκειαν αυτού, και να διδάξη σοφίαν τους πρεσβυτέρους αυτού.
to teach the king's officials whatever he wanted, to make the king's advisors wise.
23 Τότε ήλθεν ο Ισραήλ εις την Αίγυπτον, και ο Ιακώβ παρώκησεν εν γη Χαμ.
Then Israel entered Egypt—Jacob settled as a foreigner in the land of Ham.
24 Και ο Κύριος ηύξησε σφόδρα τον λαόν αυτού, και εκραταίωσεν αυτόν υπέρ τους εχθρούς αυτού.
The Lord made his people more fertile and more powerful than their enemies.
25 Εστράφη η καρδία αυτών εις το να μισώσι τον λαόν αυτού, εις το να δολιεύωνται εναντίον των δούλων αυτού.
He made the Egyptians change their minds and hate his people and act deceptively towards them.
26 Εξαπέστειλε Μωϋσήν τον δούλον αυτού, και Ααρών, τον οποίον εξέλεξεν.
He sent his servant Moses, together with Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 Εξετέλεσαν εν μέσω αυτών τους λόγους των σημείων αυτού και τα θαυμάσια αυτού εν γη Χαμ.
They carried out his miraculous signs among the Egyptians, his wonders in the land of Ham.
28 Εξαπέστειλε σκότος, και εσκότασε· και δεν ηπείθησαν εις τους λόγους αυτού.
He plunged the country into darkness—for hadn't they defied what the Lord had said?
29 Μετέβαλε τα ύδατα αυτών εις αίμα και εθανάτωσε τους ιχθύας αυτών.
He turned their water into blood, killing all the fish.
30 Η γη αυτών ανέβρυσε βατράχους, έως των ταμείων των βασιλέων αυτών.
Then he sent a plague of frogs across the land that even entered the bedrooms of their rulers.
31 Είπε, και ήλθε κυνόμυια, και σκνίπες εις πάντα τα όρια αυτών.
He gave the command, and flies spread throughout their land; mosquitoes were everywhere.
32 Έδωκεν εις αυτούς χάλαζαν αντί βροχής, και πυρ φλογερόν εις την γην αυτών·
He rained down hail on them, and lightning flashed across their land.
33 και επάταξε τας αμπέλους αυτών και τας συκέας αυτών, και συνέτριψε τα δένδρα των ορίων αυτών.
He struck down their grape vines, and tore down their trees.
34 Είπε, και ήλθεν ακρίς, και βρούχος αναρίθμητος·
He gave the command, and swarms of locusts came—countless locusts:
35 και κατέφαγε πάντα τον χόρτον εν τη γη αυτών, και κατέφαγε τον καρπόν της γης αυτών.
they ate up all the vegetation in their land; they consumed all the growing crops.
36 Και επάταξε παν πρωτότοκον εν τη γη αυτών, την απαρχήν πάσης δυνάμεως αυτών.
He killed all the firstborn in Egypt, the first to be produced in their vigor and strength.
37 Και εξήγαγεν αυτούς μετά αργυρίου και χρυσίου, και δεν υπήρχεν ασθενής εν ταις φυλαίς αυτών.
Then he led his people out of Egypt, carrying silver and gold—not one among the tribes was stumbling along.
38 Ευφράνθη η Αίγυπτος εις την έξοδον αυτών· διότι ο φόβος αυτών είχεν επιπέσει επ' αυτούς.
The Egyptians were delighted to see them go, for they were frightened of the Israelites.
39 Εξήπλωσε νεφέλην διά να σκεπάζη αυτούς, και πυρ διά να φέγγη την νύκτα.
He spread a cloud above them as a covering, and at night a fire to give them light.
40 Εζήτησαν, και έφερεν ορτύκια· και άρτον ουρανού εχόρτασεν αυτούς.
He gave them quails to eat when they asked him; he fed them with the bread of heaven until they were full.
41 Διήνοιξε την πέτραν, και ανέβλυσαν ύδατα, και διέρρευσαν ποταμοί εν τόποις ανύδροις.
He split the rock open, and water gushed out—a river flowing through the desert.
42 Διότι ενεθυμήθη τον λόγον τον άγιον αυτού, τον προς Αβραάμ τον δούλον αυτού.
For he remembered his holy promise to his servant Abraham.
43 Και εξήγαγε τον λαόν αυτού εν αγαλλιάσει, τους εκλεκτούς αυτού εν χαρά·
So he led his people out, his chosen ones, as they sang for joy.
44 και έδωκεν εις αυτούς τας γαίας των εθνών, και εκληρονόμησαν τους κόπους των λαών·
He gave them the lands of the heathen nations, and they inherited what other people had worked for.
45 διά να φυλάττωσι τα διατάγματα αυτού, και να εκτελώσι τους νόμους αυτού. Αλληλούϊα.
The Lord did this so they could follow his instructions and keep his laws. Praise the Lord!
