< Ψαλμοί 106 >
1 Αλληλούϊα. Αινείτε τον Κύριον, διότι είναι αγαθός· διότι το έλεος αυτού μένει εις τον αιώνα.
Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy [endures] for ever.
2 Τις δύναται να κηρύξη τα κραταιά έργα του Κυρίου, να κάμη ακουστάς πάσας τας αινέσεις αυτού;
Who shall tell the mighty acts of the Lord? [who] shall cause all his praises to be heard?
3 Μακάριοι οι φυλάττοντες κρίσιν, οι πράττοντες δικαιοσύνην εν παντί καιρώ.
Blessed are they that keep judgement, and do righteousness at all times.
4 Μνήσθητί μου, Κύριε, εν τη ευμενεία τη προς τον λαόν σου· επισκέφθητί με εν τη σωτηρία σου·
Remember us, O Lord, with the favour [you have] to your people: visit us with your salvation;
5 διά να βλέπω το καλόν των εκλεκτών σου, διά να ευφραίνωμαι εν τη ευφροσύνη του έθνους σου, διά να καυχώμαι μετά της κληρονομίας σου.
that we may behold the good of your elect, that we may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that we may glory with your inheritance.
6 Ημαρτήσαμεν μετά των πατέρων ημών· ηνομήσαμεν, ησεβήσαμεν.
We have sinned with our fathers, we have transgressed, we have done unrighteously.
7 Οι πατέρες ημών εν Αιγύπτω δεν ενόησαν τα θαυμάσιά σου· δεν ενεθυμήθησαν το πλήθος του ελέους σου, και σε παρώργισαν εν τη θαλάσση, εν τη Ερυθρά θαλάσση.
Our fathers in Egypt understood not your wonders, and remembered not the multitude of your mercy; but provoked [him] as they went up by the Red Sea.
8 Και όμως έσωσεν αυτούς διά το όνομα αυτού, διά να κάμη γνωστά τα κραταιά έργα αυτού.
Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might cause his mighty power to be known.
9 Και επετίμησε την Ερυθράν θάλασσαν, και εξηράνθη· και διεβίβασεν αυτούς διά των αβύσσων ως δι' ερήμου·
And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: so he led them through the deep as through the wilderness.
10 και έσωσεν αυτούς εκ της χειρός του μισούντος αυτούς, και ελύτρωσεν αυτούς εκ της χειρός του εχθρού.
And he saved them out of the hand of them that hated [them], and redeemed them out of the hand of the enemy.
11 Και τα ύδατα κατεκάλυψαν τους εχθρούς αυτών· δεν απελείφθη ουδέ εις εξ αυτών.
The water covered those that oppressed them: there was not one of them left.
12 Τότε επίστευσαν εις τους λόγους αυτού· έψαλαν την αίνεσιν αυτού.
Then they believed his words, and celebrated his praise.
13 Πλην ταχέως ελησμόνησαν τα έργα αυτού· δεν περιέμειναν την βουλήν αυτού·
They made haste, they forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel.
14 Αλλ' επεθύμησαν επιθυμίαν εν τη ερήμω, και επείρασαν τον Θεόν εν τη ανύδρω.
And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the dry [land].
15 Και έδωκεν εις αυτούς την αίτησιν αυτών· απέστειλεν όμως εις αυτούς νόσον θανατηφόρον.
And he gave them their request, and sent fullness into their souls.
16 Εφθόνησαν έτι τον Μωϋσήν εν τω στρατοπέδω και τον Ααρών τον άγιον του Κυρίου.
They provoked Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
17 Η γη ήνοιξε και κατέπιε τον Δαθάν, και εσκέπασε την συναγωγήν του Αβειρών·
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and closed upon the congregation of Abiron.
18 και πυρ εξήφθη εν τη συναγωγή αυτών· η φλόξ κατέκαυσε τους ασεβείς.
And a fire was kindled in their congregation, and a flame burnt up the sinners.
19 Κατεσκεύασαν μόσχον εν Χωρήβ, και προσεκύνησαν το χωνευτόν·
And they made a calf in Choreb, and worshipped the graven image,
20 και μετήλλαξαν την δόξαν αυτών εις ομοίωμα βοός τρώγοντος χόρτον.
and they changed their glory into the similitude of a calf that feeds on grass.
21 Ελησμόνησαν τον Θεόν τον σωτήρα αυτών τον ποιήσαντα μεγαλεία εν Αιγύπτω,
They forgot God that saved them, who had wrought great deeds in Egypt;
22 θαυμάσια εν γη Χαμ, φοβερά εν τη Ερυθρά θαλάσση.
wondrous [works] in the land of Cham, and terrible things at the Red Sea.
23 Και είπε να εξολοθρεύση αυτούς, αν ο Μωϋσής ο εκλεκτός αυτού δεν ίστατο εν τη θραύσει ενώπιον αυτού, διά να αποστρέψη την οργήν αυτού, ώστε να μη αφανίση αυτούς.
So he said that he would have destroyed them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn [him] away from the fierceness of his anger, so that he should not destroy them.
24 Κατεφρόνησαν έτι την γην την επιθυμητήν· δεν επίστευσαν εις τον λόγον αυτού·
Moreover they set at nothing the desirable land, and believed not his word.
25 και εγόγγυσαν εν ταις σκηναίς αυτών· δεν εισήκουσαν της φωνής του Κυρίου.
And they murmured in their tents: they listened not to the voice of the Lord.
26 Διά τούτο εσήκωσε την χείρα αυτού κατ' αυτών, διά να καταστρέψη αυτούς εν τη ερήμω.
So he lifted up his hand against them, to cast them down in the wilderness;
27 και να στρέψη το σπέρμα αυτών μεταξύ των εθνών και να διασκορπίση αυτούς εις τους τόπους.
and to cast down their seed amongst the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.
28 Και προσεκολλήθησαν εις τον Βέελ-φεγώρ, και έφαγον θυσίας νεκρών·
They were joined also to Beelphegor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead. And they provoked him with their devices;
29 και παρώξυναν αυτόν εν τοις έργοις αυτών, ώστε εφώρμησεν επ' αυτούς η πληγή.
and destruction, was multiplied amongst them.
30 Αλλά σταθείς ο Φινεές έκαμε κρίσιν· και η πληγή έπαυσε·
Then Phinees stood up, and made atonement: and the plague ceased.
31 και ελογίσθη εις αυτόν διά δικαιοσύνην, εις γενεάν και γενεάν έως αιώνος.
And it was counted to him for righteousness, to all generations for ever.
32 Και παρώξυναν αυτόν εν τοις ύδασι της αντιλογίας, και έπαθε κακώς ο Μωϋσής δι' αυτούς·
They provoked him also at the water of Strife, and Moses was hurt for their sakes;
33 διότι παρώργισαν το πνεύμα αυτού, ώστε ελάλησεν αστοχάστως διά των χειλέων αυτού.
for they provoked his spirit, and he spoke [unadvisedly] with his lips.
34 Δεν εξωλόθρευσαν τα έθνη τα οποία ο Κύριος προσέταξεν εις αυτούς·
They destroyed not the nations which the Lord told them [to destroy];
35 αλλ' εσμίχθησαν μετά των εθνών και έμαθον τα έργα αυτών·
but were mingled with the heathen, and learnt their works.
36 και ελάτρευσαν τα γλυπτά αυτών, τα οποία έγειναν παγίς εις αυτούς·
And they served their graven images; and it became an offence to them.
37 και εθυσίασαν τους υιούς αυτών και τας θυγατέρας αυτών εις τα δαιμόνια·
And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to devils,
38 Και έχυσαν αίμα αθώον, το αίμα των υιών αυτών και των θυγατέρων αυτών τους οποίους εθυσίασαν εις τα γλυπτά της Χαναάν· και εμιάνθη η γη εξ αιμάτων.
and shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan; and the land was defiled with blood.
39 Και εμολύνθησαν με τα έργα αυτών, και επόρνευσαν με τας πράξεις αυτών.
and was polluted with their works; and they went a whoring with their own devices.
40 Διά τούτο η οργή του Κυρίου εξήφθη κατά του λαού αυτού, και εβδελύχθη την κληρονομίαν αυτού,
So the Lord was very angry with his people, and he abhorred his inheritance.
41 Και παρέδωκεν αυτούς εις τας χείρας των εθνών· και εκυρίευσαν αυτούς οι μισούντες αυτούς.
And he delivered them into the hands of [their] enemies; and they that hated them ruled over them.
42 Και έθλιψαν αυτούς οι εχθροί αυτών, και εταπεινώθησαν υπό τας χείρας αυτών.
Ands their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought down under their hands.
43 Πολλάκις ελύτρωσεν αυτούς, αλλ' αυτοί παρώργισαν αυτόν με τας βουλάς αυτών· διό εταπεινώθησαν διά την ανομίαν αυτών.
Many a time he delivered them; but they provoked him by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquities.
44 Πλην επέβλεψεν επί την θλίψιν αυτών, ότε ήκουσε την κραυγήν αυτών·
You the Lord looked upon their affliction, when he heard their petition.
45 και ενεθυμήθη την προς αυτούς διαθήκην αυτού και μετεμελήθη κατά το πλήθος του ελέους αυτού.
And he remembered his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercy.
46 Και έκαμεν αυτούς να εύρωσιν έλεος ενώπιον πάντων των αιχμαλωτισάντων αυτούς.
And he caused them to be pitied in the sight of all who carried them captive.
47 Σώσον ημάς, Κύριε ο Θεός ημών, και συνάγαγε ημάς από των εθνών, διά να δοξολογώμεν το όνομά σου το άγιον και να καυχώμεθα εις την αίνεσίν σου.
Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from amongst the heathen, that we may give thanks to your holy name, that we may glory in your praise.
48 Ευλογητός Κύριος ο Θεός του Ισραήλ, από του αιώνος και έως του αιώνος· και ας λέγη πας ο λαός, Αμήν. Αλληλούϊα.
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting and to everlasting; and all the people shall say, Amen, Amen.
