  To thee, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest thou be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.

  [2] εἰσάκουσον τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου ἐν τῷ δέεσθαί με πρὸς σέ, ἐν τῷ αἴρειν με χεῖράς μου πρὸς ναὸν ἅγιόν σου.

  [2] Hearken to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy temple.

  [3] μὴ συνελκύσῃς μετὰ ἁμαρτωλῶν τὴν ψυχήν μου καὶ μετὰ ἐργαζομένων ἀδικίαν μὴ συναπολέσῃς με τῶν λαλούντων εἰρήνην μετὰ τῶν πλησίον αὐτῶν, κακὰ δὲ ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις αὐτῶν.

  [3] Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbours, but evils are in their hearts.

  [4] δὸς αὐτοῖς, Κύριε, κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν καὶ κατὰ τὴν πονηρίαν τῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων αὐτῶν· κατὰ τὰ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν δὸς αὐτοῖς, ἀπόδος τὸ ἀνταπόδομα αὐτῶν αὐτοῖς.

  [4] Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense unto them.

  [5] ὅτι οὐ συνῆκαν εἰς τὰ ἔργα Κυρίου καὶ εἰς τὰ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ· καθελεῖς αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐ μὴ οἰκοδομήσεις αὐτούς.

  [5] Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, thou shalt pull them down, and shalt not build them up.

  [6] εὐλογητὸς Κύριος, ὅτι εἰσήκουσε τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου.

  [6] Blessed be the Lord, for he has hearkened to the voice of my petition.

  [7] Κύριος βοηθός μου καὶ ὑπερασπιστής μου· ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ ἤλπισεν ἡ καρδία μου, καὶ ἐβοηθήθην, καὶ ἀνέθαλεν ἡ σάρξ μου· καὶ ἐκ θελήματός μου ἐξομολογήσομαι αὐτῷ.

  [7] The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I give praise to him.

  [8] Κύριος κραταίωμα τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς τῶν σωτηρίων τοῦ χριστοῦ αὐτοῦ ἐστι.

  [8] The Lord is the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.

  [9] σῶσον τὸν λαόν σου καὶ εὐλόγησον τὴν κληρονομίαν σου καὶ ποίμανον αὐτοὺς καὶ ἔπαρον αὐτοὺς ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος.

  [9] Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.

  [29]:1 Bring to the Lord, ye sons of God, bring to the Lord young rams; bring to the Lord glory and honour.

  [2] ἐνέγκατε τῷ Κυρίῳ δόξαν ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ, προσκυνήσατε τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν αὐλῇ ἁγίᾳ αὐτοῦ.

  [2] Bring to the Lord glory, due to his name; worship the lord in his holy court.

  [3] φωνὴ Κυρίου ἐπὶ τῶν ὑδάτων, ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δόξης ἐβρόντησε, Κύριος ἐπὶ ὑδάτων πολλῶν.

  [3] The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory has thundered: the Lord is upon many waters.

  [4] φωνὴ Κυρίου ἐν ἰσχύϊ, φωνὴ Κυρίου ἐν μεγαλοπρεπείᾳ.

  [4] The voice of the Lord is mighty; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

  [5] φωνὴ Κυρίου συντρίβοντος κέδρους, καὶ συντρίψει Κύριος τὰς κέδρους τοῦ Λιβάνου

  [5] There is the voice of the Lord who breaks the cedars; the Lord will break the cedars of Libanus.

  [6] καὶ λεπτυνεῖ αὐτὰς ὡς τὸν μόσχον τὸν Λίβανον, καὶ ὁ ἠγαπημένος ὡς υἱὸς μονοκερώτων.

  [6] And he will beat them small, even Libanus itself, like a calf; and the beloved one is as a young unicorn.

  [7] φωνὴ Κυρίου διακόπτοντος φλόγα πυρός,

  [7] There is a voice of the Lord who divides a flame of fire.

  [10] Κύριος τὸν κατακλυσμὸν κατοικιεῖ, καὶ καθιεῖται Κύριος βασιλεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

  [10] The Lord will dwell on the waterflood: and the Lord will sit a king for ever.

  [11] Κύριος ἰσχὺν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ δώσει, Κύριος εὐλογήσει τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν εἰρήνῃ.

  [11] The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

  Ψαλμός 29

  Psalm 29

  Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ψαλμὸς ᾠδῆς τοῦ ἐγκαινισμοῦ τοῦ οἴκου· Δαυΐδ.

  For the end, a Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

  [2] ΥΨΩΣΩ σε, Κύριε, ὅτι ὑπέλαβές με καὶ οὐκ εὔφρανας τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ.

  [2] I will exalt thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, and not caused mine enemies to rejoice over me.

  [3] Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σέ, καὶ ἰάσω με·

  [3] O Lord my God, I cried to thee, and thou didst heal me.

  [4] Κύριε, ἀνήγαγες ἐξ ᾅδου τὴν ψυχήν μου, ἔσωσάς με ἀπὸ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς λάκκον.

  [4] O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from Hades, thou hast delivered me from among them that go down to the pit.

  [5] ψάλατε τῷ Κυρίῳ, οἱ ὅσιοι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῇ μνήμῃ τῆς ἁγιωσύνης αὐτοῦ·

  [5] Sing to the Lord, ye his saints, and give thanks for the remembrance of his holiness.

  [6] ὅτι ὀργὴ ἐν τῷ θυμῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ζωὴ ἐν τῷ θελήματι αὐτοῦ· τὸ ἑσπέρας αὐλισθήσεται κλαυθμὸς καὶ εἰς τὸ πρωΐ ἀγαλλίασις.

  [6] For anger is in his wrath, but life in his favour: weeping shall tarry for the evening, but joy shall be in the morning.

  [7] ἐγὼ δὲ εἶπα ἐν τῇ εὐθηνίᾳ μου· οὐ μὴ σαλευθῶ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

  [7] And I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.

  [8] Κύριε, ἐν τῷ θελήματί σο
υ παρέσχου τῷ κάλλει μου δύναμιν· ἀπέστρεψας δὲ τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ ἐγενήθην τεταραγμένος.

  [8] O Lord, in thy good pleasure thou didst add strength to my beauty: but thou didst turn away thy face, and I was troubled.

  [9] πρὸς σέ, Κύριε, κεκράξομαι, καὶ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν μου δεηθήσομαι.

  [9] To thee, O Lord, will I cry; and to my God will I make supplication.

  [10] τίς ὠφέλεια ἐν τῷ αἵματί μου ἐν τῷ καταβαίνειν με εἰς διαφθοράν; μὴ ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι χοῦς ἢ ἀναγγελεῖ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου;

  [10] What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to destruction? Shall the dust give praise to thee? or shall it declare thy truth?

  [11] ἤκουσε Κύριος, καὶ ἠλέησέ με, Κύριος ἐγενήθη βοηθός μου.

  [11] The Lord heard, and had compassion upon me; the Lord is become my helper.

  [12] ἔστρεψας τὸν κοπετόν μου εἰς χαρὰν ἐμοί, διέῤῥηξας τὸν σάκκον μου καὶ περιέζωσάς με εὐφροσύνην,

  [12] Thou hast turned my mourning into joy for me: thou hast rent off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

  [13] ὅπως ἂν ψάλῃ σοι ἡ δόξα μου καὶ οὐ μὴ κατανυγῶ. Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι.

  [13] that my glory may sing praise to thee, and I may not be pierced with sorrow. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to thee for ever.

  Ψαλμός 30

  Psalm 30

  Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυΐδ· ἐκστάσεως.

  For the end, a Psalm of David, an utterance of extreme fear.

  [2] ΕΠΙ σοί, Κύριε, ἤλπισα, μὴ καταισχυνθείην εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα· ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ῥῦσαί με καὶ ἐξελοῦ με.

  [2] O Lord, I have hoped in thee; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness and rescue me.

  [3] κλῖνον πρός με τὸ οὖς σου, τάχυνον τοῦ ἐξελέσθαι με· γενοῦ μοι εἰς Θεὸν ὑπερασπιστὴν καὶ εἰς οἶκον καταφυγῆς τοῦ σῶσαί με.

  [3] Incline thine ear to me; make haste to rescue me: be thou to me for a protecting God, and for a house of refuge to save me.

  [4] ὅτι κραταίωμά μου καὶ καταφυγή μου εἶ σὺ καὶ ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματός σου ὁδηγήσεις με καὶ διαθρέψεις με·

  [4] For thou art my strength and my refuge; and thou shalt guide me for thy name’s sake, and maintain me.

  [5] ἐξάξεις με ἐκ παγίδος ταύτης, ἧς ἔκρυψάν μοι, ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ὑπερασπιστής μου, Κύριε.

  [5] Thou shalt bring me out of the snare which they have hidden for me; for thou, O Lord, art my defender.

  [6] εἰς χεῖράς σου παραθήσομαι τὸ πνεῦμά μου· ἐλυτρώσω με, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς τῆς ἀληθείας.

  [6] Into thine hands I will commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.

  [7] ἐμίσησας τοὺς διαφυλάσσοντας ματαιότητας διακενῆς· ἐγὼ δὲ ἐπὶ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἤλπισα.

  [7] Thou has hated them that idly persist in vanities: but I have hoped in the Lord.

  [8] ἀγαλλιάσομαι καὶ εὐφρανθήσομαι ἐπὶ τῷ ἐλέει σου, ὅτι ἐπεῖδες τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου, ἔσωσας ἐκ τῶν ἀναγκῶν τὴν ψυχήν μου

  [8] I will exult and be glad in thy mercy: for thou hast looked upon mine affliction; thou hast saved my soul from distresses.

  [9] καὶ οὐ συνέκλεισάς με εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν, ἔστησας ἐν εὐρυχώρῳ τοὺς πόδας μου.

  [9] And thou hast not shut me up into the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a wide place.

  [10] ἐλέησόν με, Κύριε, ὅτι θλίβομαι· ἐταράχθη ἐν θυμῷ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου, ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ ἡ γαστήρ μου.

  [10] Pity me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with indignation, my soul and by belly.

  [11] ὅτι ἐξέλιπεν ἐν ὀδύνῃ ἡ ζωή μου καὶ τὰ ἔτη μου ἐν στεναγμοῖς· ἠσθένησεν ἐν πτωχείᾳ ἡ ἰσχύς μου, καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ μου ἐταράχθησαν.

  [11] For my life is spent with grief, and my years with groanings: my strength has been weakened through poverty, and my bones are troubled.

  [12] παρὰ πάντας τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου ἐγενήθην ὄνειδος καὶ τοῖς γείτοσί μου σφόδρα, καὶ φόβος τοῖς γνωστοῖς μου· οἱ θεωροῦντες με ἔξω ἔφυγον ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ.

  [12] I became a reproach among all mine enemies, but exceedingly so to my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that saw me without fled from me.

  [13] ἐπελήσθην ὡσεὶ νεκρὸς ἀπὸ καρδίας, ἐγενήθην ὡσεὶ σκεῦος ἀπολωλός.

  [13] I have been forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am become as a broken vessel.

  [14] ὅτι ἤκουσα ψόγον πολλῶν παροικούντων κυκλόθεν· ἐν τῷ ἐπισυναχθῆναι αὐτοὺς ἅμα ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ τοῦ λαβεῖν τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐβουλεύσαντο.

  [14] For I heard the slander of many that dwelt round about: when they were gathered together against me, they took counsel to take my life.

  [15] ἐγὼ δὲ ἐπὶ σοὶ ἤλπισα, Κύριε, εἶπα· σὺ εἶ ὁ Θεός μου.

  [15] But I hoped in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.

  [16] ἐν ταῖς χερσί σου οἱ κλῆροί μου [Αλλη γραφή· οἱ καιροί μου.]· ῥῦσαί με ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν μου καὶ ἐκ τῶν καταδιωκόντων με.

  [16] My lots are in thy hands: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

  [17] ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπὶ τὸν δοῦλόν σου, σῶσόν με ἐν τῷ ἐλέει σου.

  [17] Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me in thy mercy.

  [18] Κύριε, μὴ καταισχυνθείην, ὅτι ἐπεκαλεσάμην σε· αἰσχυνθείησαν οἱ ἀσεβεῖς καὶ καταχθείησαν εἰς ᾅδου.

  [18] O Lord, let me not be ashamed, for I have called upon thee: let the ungodly be ashamed, and brought down to Hades.

  [19] ἄλαλα γενηθήτω τὰ χείλη τὰ δόλια τὰ λαλοῦντα κατὰ τοῦ δικαίου ἀνομίαν ἐν ὑπερηφανίᾳ καὶ ἐξουδενώσει.

  [19] Let the deceitful lips become dumb, which speak iniquity against the righteous with pride and scorn.

  [20] ὡς πολὺ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς χρηστότητός σου, Κύριε, ἧς ἔκρυψας τοῖς φοβουμένοις σε, ἐξειργάσω τοῖς ἐλπίζουσιν ἐπὶ σὲ ἐναντίον τῶν υἱῶν τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

  [20] How abundant is the multitude of thy goodness, O Lord, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee! thou hast wrought it out for them that hope on thee, in the presence of the sons of men.

  [21] κατακρύψεις αὐτοὺς ἐ
ν ἀποκρύφῳ τοῦ προσώπου σου ἀπὸ ταραχῆς ἀνθρώπων, σκεπάσεις αὐτοὺς ἐν σκηνῇ ἀπὸ ἀντιλογίας γλωσσῶν.

  [21] Thou wilt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the vexation of man: thou wilt screen them in a tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.

  [22] εὐλογητὸς Κύριος, ὅτι ἐθαυμάστωσε τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει περιοχῆς.

  [22] Blessed be the Lord: for he has magnified his mercy in a fortified city.

  [23] ἐγὼ δὲ εἶπα ἐν τῇ ἐκστάσει μου· ἀπέῤῥιμμαι ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν σου. διὰ τοῦτο εἰσήκουσας τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς σέ.

  [23] But I said in my extreme fear, I am cast out from the sight of thine eyes: therefore thou didst hearken, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication when I cried to thee.

  [24] ἀγαπήσατε τὸν Κύριον πάντες οἱ ὅσιοι αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἀληθείας ἐκζητεῖ Κύριος καὶ ἀνταποδίδωσι τοῖς περισσῶς ποιοῦσιν ὑπερηφανίαν.

  [24] Love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord seeks for truth, and renders a reward to them that deal very proudly.

  [25] ἀνδρίζεσθε, καὶ κραταιούσθω ἡ καρδία ὑμῶν, πάντες οἱ ἐλπίζοντες ἐπὶ Κύριον.

  [25] Be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.

  Ψαλμός 31

  Psalm 31

  Τῷ Δαυΐδ· συνέσεως.
