  [23] Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour till evening.

  [24] ὡς ἐμεγαλύνθη τὰ ἔργα σου, Κύριε· πάντα ἐν σοφίᾳ ἐποίησας, ἐπληρώθη ἡ γῆ τῆς κτίσεώς σου.

  [24] How great are thy works, O Lord! in wisdom hast thou wrought them all: the earth is filled with thy creation.

  [25] αὕτη ἡ θάλασσα ἡ μεγάλη καὶ εὐρύχωρος, ἐκεῖ ἑρπετά, ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός, ζῷα μικρὰ μετὰ μεγάλων·

  [25] So is this great and wide sea: there are things creeping innumerable, small animals and great.

  [26] ἐκεῖ πλοῖα διαπορεύονται, δράκων οὗτος, ὃν ἔπλασας ἐμπαίζειν αὐτῇ.

  [26] There go the ships; and this dragon whom thou hast made to play in it.

  [27] πάντα πρὸς σὲ προσδοκῶσι, δοῦναι τὴν τροφὴν αὐτῶν εἰς εὔκαιρον.

  [27] All wait upon thee, to give them their food in due season.

  [28] δόντος σου αὐτοῖς συλλέξουσιν, ἀνοίξαντός σου τὴν χεῖρα, τὰ σύμπαντα πλησθήσονται χρηστότητος.

  [28] When thou hast given it them, they will gather it; and when thou hast opened thine hand, they shall all be filled with good.

  [29] ἀποστρέψαντος δέ σου τὸ πρόσωπον ταραχθήσονται· ἀντανελεῖς τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐκλείψουσι καὶ εἰς τὸν χοῦν αὐτῶν ἐπιστρέψουσιν.

  [29] But when thou hast turned away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou wilt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and return to their dust.

  [30] ἐξαποστελεῖς τὸ πνεῦμά σου, καὶ κτισθήσονται, καὶ ἀνακαινιεῖς τὸ πρόσωπον τῆς γῆς.

  [30] Thou shalt send forth thy Spirit, and they shall be created; and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.

  [31] ἤτω ἡ δόξα Κυρίου εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, εὐφρανθήσεται Κύριος ἐπὶ τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ·

  [31] Let the glory of the Lord be for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works;

  [32] ὁ ἐπιβλέπων ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ποιῶν αὐτὴν τρέμειν, ὁ ἁπτόμενος τῶν ὀρέων καὶ καπνίζονται.

  [32] who looks upon the earth, and makes it tremble; who touches the mountains, and they smoke.

  [33] ᾄσω τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ μου, ψαλῶ τῷ Θεῷ μου ἕως ὑπάρχω·

  [33] I will sing to the Lord while I live; I will sing praise to my God while I exist.

  [34] ἡδυνθείη αὐτῷ ἡ διαλογή μου, ἐγὼ δὲ εὐφρανθήσομαι ἐπὶ τῷ Κυρίῳ.

  [34] Let my meditation be sweet to him: and I will rejoice in the Lord.

  [35] ἐκλείποιεν ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἄνομοι, ὥστε μὴ ὑπάρχειν αὐτούς. εὐλόγει, ἡ ψυχή μου, τὸν Κύριον.

  [35] Let the sinners fail from off the earth, and transgressors, so that they shall be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul.

  Ψαλμός 104

  Psalm 104

  Ἀλληλούϊα.

  Alleluia.

  ΕΞΟΜΟΛΟΓΕΙΣΘΕ τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ ἐπικαλεῖσθε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, ἀπαγγείλατε ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ·

  Give thanks to the Lord, and call upon his name; declare his works among the heathen.

  [2] ᾄσατε αὐτῷ καὶ ψάλατε αὐτῷ, διηγήσασθε πάντα τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ.

  [2] Sing to him, yea, sing praises to him: tell forth all his wonderful works.

  [3] ἐπαινεῖσθε ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ. εὐφρανθήτω καρδία ζητούντων τὸν Κύριον·

  [3] Glory in his holy name: let the heart of them that seek the Lord rejoice.

  [4] ζητήσατε τὸν Κύριον καὶ κραταιώθητε, ζητήσατε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ διαπαντός.

  [4] Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened; seek his face continually.

  [5] μνήσθητε τῶν θαυμασίων αὐτοῦ, ὧν ἐποίησε, τὰ τέρατα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ κρίματα τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ,

  [5] Remember his wonderful works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;

  [6] σπέρμα Ἁβραὰμ δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ, υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ ἐκλεκτοὶ αὐτοῦ.

  [6] ye seed of Abraam, his servants, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

  [7] αὐτὸς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ.

  [7] He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

  [8] ἐμνήσθη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα διαθήκης αὐτοῦ, λόγου, οὗ ἐνετείλατο εἰς χιλίας γενεάς,

  [8] He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generation:

  [9] ὃν διέθετο τῷ Ἁβραάμ, καὶ τοῦ ὅρκου αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰσαὰκ

  [9] which he established as a covenant to Abraam, and he remembered his oath to Isaac.

  [10] καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν τῷ Ἰακὼβ εἰς πρόσταγμα καὶ τῷ Ἰσραὴλ εἰς διαθήκην αἰώνιον

  [10] And he established it to Jacob for an ordinance, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant;

  [11] λέγων· σοὶ δώσω τὴν γῆν Χαναὰν σχοίνισμα κληρονομίας ὑμῶν.

  [11] saying To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:

  [12] ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτοὺς ἀριθμῷ βραχεῖς, ὀλιγοστοὺς καὶ παροίκους ἐν αὐτῇ

  [12] when they were few in number, very few, and sojourners in it.

  [13] καὶ διῆλθον ἐξ ἔθνους εἰς ἔθνος, καὶ ἐκ βασιλείας εἰς λαὸν ἕτερον.

  [13] And they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.

  [14] οὐκ ἀφῆκεν ἄνθρωπον ἀδικῆσαι αὐτοὺς καὶ ἤλεγξεν ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν βασιλεῖς·

  [14] He suffered no man to wrong them; and he rebuked kings for their sakes:

  [15] μὴ ἅπτεσθε τῶν χριστῶν μου καὶ ἐν τοῖς προφήταις μου μὴ πονηρεύεσθε.

  [15] saying, Touch not my anointed ones; and do my prophets no harm.

  [16] καὶ ἐκάλεσε λιμὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, πᾶν στήριγμα ἄρτου συνέτριψεν·

  [16] Moreover he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole support of bread.

  [17] ἀπέστειλεν ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν ἄνθρωπον, εἰς δοῦλον ἐπράθη Ἰωσήφ.

  [17] He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a slave.

  [18] ἐταπείνωσαν ἐν πέδαις τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ, σίδηρον διῆλθεν ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ

  [18] They hurt his feet with fetters; his soul passed into iron,

  [19] μέχρι τοῦ ἐλθεῖν τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ, τὸ λόγιον τοῦ Κυρίου ἐπύρωσεν αὐτόν.

  [19] until the time that his cause came on; the word of the Lord tried him as fire.

  [20]
ἀπέστειλε βασιλεὺς καὶ ἔλυσεν αὐτόν, ἄρχων λαοῦ, καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτόν.

  [20] The king sent and loosed him; even the prince of the people, and let him go free.

  [21] κατέστησεν αὐτὸν κύριον τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἄρχοντα πάσης τῆς κτήσεως αὐτοῦ

  [21] He made him Lord over his house, and ruler of all his substance;

  [22] τοῦ παιδεῦσαι τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτοῦ ὡς ἑαυτὸν καὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους αὐτοῦ σοφίσαι.

  [22] to chastise his rulers at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.

  [23] καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ Ἰακὼβ παρῴκησεν ἐν γῇ Χάμ.

  [23] Israel also came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Cham.

  [24] καὶ ηὔξησε τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ σφόδρα καὶ ἐκραταίωσεν αὐτὸν ὑπὲρ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ.

  [24] And he increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their enemies.

  [25] μετέστρεψε τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ τοῦ μισῆσαι τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ δολιοῦσθαι ἐν τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ.

  [25] And he turned their heart to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.

  [26] ἐξαπέστειλε Μωϋσῆν τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ, Ἀαρών, ὃν ἐξελέξατο ἑαυτῷ.

  [26] He sent forth Moses his servant, and Aaron whom he had chosen.

  [27] ἔθετο ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς λόγους τῶν σημείων αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν τεράτων αὐτοῦ ἐν γῇ Χάμ.

  [27] He established among them his signs, and his wonders in the land of Cham.

  [28] ἐξαπέστειλε σκότος καὶ ἐσκότασεν, ὅτι παρεπίκραναν τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ·

  [28] He sent forth darkness, and made it dark; yet they rebelled against his words.

  [29] μετέστρεψε τὰ ὕδατα αὐτῶν εἰς αἷμα, καὶ ἀπέκτεινε τοὺς ἰχθύας αὐτῶν.

  [29] He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.

  [30] ἐξῆρψεν ἡ γῆ αὐτῶν βατράχους ἐν τοῖς ταμιείοις τῶν βασιλέων αὐτῶν.

  [30] Their land produced frogs abundantly, in the chambers of their kings.

  [31] εἶπε, καὶ ἦλθε κυνόμυια καὶ σκνῖπες ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῶν.

  [31] He spoke, and the dog-fly came, and lice in all their coasts.

  [32] ἔθετο τὰς βροχὰς αὐτῶν χάλαζαν, πῦρ καταφλέγον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν,

  [32] He turned their rain into hail, and sent flaming fire in their land.

  [33] καὶ ἐπάταξε τὰς ἀμπέλους αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς συκᾶς αὐτῶν καὶ συνέτριψε πᾶν ξύλον ὁρίου αὐτῶν.

  [33] And he smote their vines and their fig trees; and broke every tree of their coast.

  [34] εἶπε καὶ ἦλθεν ἀκρίς, καὶ βροῦχος, οὗ οὐκ ἦν ἀριθμός,

  [34] He spoke, and the locust came, and caterpillars innumerable,

  [35] καὶ κατέφαγε πάντα τὸν χόρτον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν, καὶ κατέφαγε τὸν καρπὸν τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν.

  [35] and devoured all the grass in their land, and devoured the fruit of the ground.

  [36] καὶ ἐπάταξε πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν, ἀπαρχὴν παντὸς πόνου αὐτῶν.

  [36] He smote also every first-born of their land, the first-fruits of all their labour.

  [37] καὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἀργυρίῳ καὶ χρυσίῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἐν ταῖς φυλαῖς αὐτῶν ὁ ἀσθενῶν.

  [37] And he brought them out with silver and gold; and there was not a feeble one among their tribes.

  [38] εὐφράνθη Αἴγυπτος ἐν τῇ ἐξόδῳ αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἐπέπεσεν ὁ φόβος αὐτῶν ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς.

  [38] Egypt rejoiced at their departing; for the fear of them fell upon them.

  [39] διεπέτασε νεφέλην εἰς σκέπην αὐτοῖς καὶ πῦρ τοῦ φωτίσαι αὐτοῖς τὴν νύκτα.

  [39] He spread out a cloud for a covering to them, and fire to give them light by night.

  [40] ᾔτησαν, καὶ ἦλθεν ὀρτυγομήτρα, καὶ ἄρτον οὐρανοῦ ἐνέπλησεν αὐτούς·

  [40] They asked, and the quail came, and he satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

  [41] διέῤῥηξε πέτραν, καὶ ἐῤῥύησαν ὕδατα, ἐπορεύθησαν ἐν ἀνύδροις ποταμοί.

  [41] He clave the rock, and the waters flowed, rivers ran in dry places.

  [42] ὅτι ἐμνήσθη τοῦ λόγου τοῦ ἁγίου αὐτοῦ τοῦ πρὸς Ἁβραὰμ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ

  [42] For he remembered his holy word, which he promised to Abraam his servant.

  [43] καὶ ἐξήγαγε τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ.

  [43] And he brought out his people with exultation, and his chosen with joy;

  [44] καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς χώρας ἐθνῶν, καὶ πόνους λαῶν κατεκληρονόμησαν,

  [44] and gave them the lands of the heathen; and they inherited the labours of the people;

  [45] ὅπως ἂν φυλάξωσι τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸν νόμον αὐτοῦ ἐκζητήσωσιν.

  [45] that they might keep his ordinances, and diligently seek his law.

  Ψαλμός 105

  Psalm 105

  Ἀλληλούϊα.

  Alleluia.

  ΕΞΟΜΟΛΟΓΕΙΣΘΕ τῷ Κυρίῳ, ὅτι χρηστός, ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ.

  Give thanks to the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever.

  [2] τίς λαλήσει τὰς δυναστείας τοῦ Κυρίου, ἀκουστὰς ποιήσει πάσας τὰς αἰνέσεις αὐτοῦ;

  [2] Who shall tell the mighty acts of the Lord? who shall cause all his praises to be heard?

  [3] μακάριοι οἱ φυλάσσοντες κρίσιν καὶ ποιοῦντες δικαιοσύνην ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ.

  [3] Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do righteousness at all times.

  [4] μνήσθητι ἡμῶν, Κύριε, ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ τοῦ λαοῦ σου, ἐπίσκεψαι ἡμᾶς ἐν τῷ σωτηρίῳ σου

  [4] Remember us, O Lord, with the favour thou hast to thy people: visit us with thy salvation;

  [5] τοῦ ἰδεῖν ἐν τῇ χρηστότητι τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν σου, τοῦ εὐφρανθῆναι ἐν τῇ εὐφροσύνῃ τοῦ ἔθνους σου, τοῦ ἐπαινεῖσθαι μετὰ τῆς κληρονομίας σου.

  [5] that we may behold the good of thine elect, that we may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that we may glory with thine inheritance.

  [6] ἡμάρτομεν μετὰ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, ἠνομήσαμεν, ἠδικήσαμεν.

  [6] We have sinned with our fathers, we have transgressed, we have done unrighteously.

  [7] οἱ πατέρ
ες ἡμῶν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ οὐ συνῆκαν τὰ θαυμάσιά σου καὶ οὐκ ἐμνήσθησαν τοῦ πλήθους τοῦ ἐλέους σου καὶ παρεπίκραναν ἀναβαίνοντες ἐν τῇ ἐρυθρᾷ θαλάσσῃ.

  [7] Our fathers in Egypt understood not thy wonders, and remembered not the multitude of thy mercy; but provoked him as they went up by the Red Sea.

  [8] καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματος αὐτοῦ τοῦ γνωρίσαι τὴν δυναστείαν αὐτοῦ·

  [8] Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might cause his mighty power to be known.

  [9] καὶ ἐπετίμησε τῇ ἐρυθρᾷ θαλάσσῃ, καὶ ἐξηράνθη, καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἀβύσσῳ ὡς ἐν ἐρήμῳ·

  [9] And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: so he led them through the deep as through the wilderness.

  [10] καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς ἐκ χειρὸς μισοῦντος καὶ ἐλυτρώσατο αὐτοὺς ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν·

  [10] And he saved them out of the hand of them that hated them, and redeemed them out of the hand of the enemy.

  [11] ἐκάλυψεν ὕδωρ τοὺς θλίβοντας αὐτούς, εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐχ ὑπελείφθη.

  [11] The water covered those that oppressed them: there was not one of them left.

  [12] καὶ ἐπίστευσαν τοῖς λόγοις αὐτοῦ καὶ ᾖσαν τὴν αἴνεσιν αὐτοῦ.

  [12] Then they believed his words, and celebrated his praise.

  [13] ἐτάχυναν, ἐπελάθοντο τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ, οὐχ ὑπέμειναν τὴν βουλὴν αὐτοῦ·

  [13] They made haste, they forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel.

  [14] καὶ ἐπεθύμησαν ἐπιθυμίαν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ ἐπείρασαν τὸν Θεὸν ἐν ἀνύδρῳ.

  [14] And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the dry land.
