by Septuagint

  [19] πρόσχες τῇ ψυχῇ μου καὶ λύτρωσαι αὐτήν, ἕνεκα τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου ῥῦσαί με.

  [19] Draw nigh to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

  [20] σὺ γὰρ γινώσκεις τὸν ὀνειδισμόν μου καὶ τὴν αἰσχύνην μου καὶ τὴν ἐντροπήν μου· ἐναντίον σου πάντες οἱ θλίβοντές με.

  [20] For thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before thee.

  [21] ὀνειδισμὸν προσεδόκησεν ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν, καὶ ὑπέμεινα συλλυπούμενον, καὶ οὐχ ὑπῆρξε, καὶ παρακαλοῦντας, καὶ οὐχ εὗρον.

  [21] My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.

  [22] καὶ ἔδωκαν εἰς τὸ βρῶμά μου χολὴν καὶ εἰς τὴν δίψαν μου ἐπότισάν με ὄξος.

  [22] They gave me also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.

  [23] γενηθήτω ἡ τράπεζα αὐτῶν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν εἰς παγίδα καὶ εἰς ἀνταπόδοσιν καὶ εἰς σκάνδαλον.

  [23] Let their table before them be for a snare, and for a recompense, and for a stumbling-block.

  [24] σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν, καὶ τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διαπαντὸς σύγκαμψον.

  [24] Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.

  [25] ἔκχεον ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς τὴν ὀργήν σου, καὶ ὁ θυμὸς τῆς ὀργῆς σου καταλάβοι αὐτούς.

  [25] Pour out thy wrath upon them, and let the fury of thine anger take hold on them.

  [26] γενηθήτω ἡ ἔπαυλις αὐτῶν ἠρημωμένη, καὶ ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασιν αὐτῶν μὴ ἔστω ὁ κατοικῶν·

  [26] Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:

  [27] ὅτι ὃν σὺ ἐπάταξας, αὐτοὶ κατεδίωξαν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ ἄλγος τῶν τραυμάτων μου προσέθηκαν.

  [27] Because they persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.

  [28] πρόσθες ἀνομίαν ἐπὶ τῇ ἀνομίᾳ αὐτῶν, καὶ μὴ εἰσελθέτωσαν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ σου·

  [28] Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into thy righteousness.

  [29] ἐξαλειφθήτωσαν ἐκ βίβλου ζώντων καὶ μετὰ δικαίων μὴ γραφήτωσαν.

  [29] Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.

  [30] πτωχὸς καὶ ἀλγῶν εἰμι ἐγώ· ἡ σωτηρία σου, ὁ Θεός, ἀντιλάβοιτό μου.

  [30] I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of thy countenance has helped me.

  [31] αἰνέσω τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ μου μετ᾿ ᾠδῆς, μεγαλυνῶ αὐτὸν ἐν αἰνέσει,

  [31] I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;

  [32] καὶ ἀρέσει τῷ Θεῷ ὑπὲρ μόσχον νέον κέρατα ἐκφέροντα καὶ ὁπλάς.

  [32] and this shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.

  [33] ἰδέτωσαν πτωχοὶ καὶ εὐφρανθήτωσαν· ἐκζητήσατε τὸν Θεόν, καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ὑμῶν,

  [33] Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and ye shall live.

  [34] ὅτι εἰσήκουσε τῶν πενήτων ὁ Κύριος καὶ τοὺς πεπεδημένους αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐξουδένωσεν.

  [34] For the Lord hears the poor, and does not set at nought his fettered ones.

  [35] αἰνεσάτωσαν αὐτὸν οἱ οὐρανοὶ καὶ ἡ γῆ, θάλασσα καὶ πάντα τὰ ἕρποντα ἐν αὐτῇ.

  [35] Let the heavens and the earth raise him, the sea, and all things moving in them.

  [36] ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς σώσει τὴν Σιών, καὶ οἰκοδομηθήσονται αἱ πόλεις τῆς Ἰουδαίας, καὶ κατοικήσουσιν ἐκεῖ καὶ κληρονομήσουσιν αὐτήν·

  [36] For God will save Sion, and the cities of Judea shall be built; and men shall dwell there, and inherit it.

  [37] καὶ τὸ σπέρμα τῶν δούλων αὐτοῦ καθέξουσιν αὐτήν, καὶ οἱ ἀγαπῶντες τὸ ὄνομά σου κατασκηνώσουσιν ἐν αὐτῇ.

  [37] And the seed of his servants shall possess it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

  Ψαλμός 69

  Psalm 69

  Εἰς τὸ τέλος· τῷ Δαυΐδ εἰς ἀνάμνησιν, εἰς τὸ σῶσαί με Κύριον.

  For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me.

  [2] Ο ΘΕΟΣ, εἰς τὴν βοήθειάν μου πρόσχες· Κύριε, εἰς τὸ βοηθῆσαί μοι σπεῦσον.

  [2] O God, look to help me; O Lord, make haste to help me.

  [3] αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ἐντραπήτωσαν οἱ ζητοῦντες τὴν ψυχήν μου· ἀποστραφήτωσαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ καταισχυνθήτωσαν οἱ βουλόμενοί μου κακά·

  [3] Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.

  [4] ἀποστραφήτωσαν παραυτίκα αἰσχυνόμενοι οἱ λέγοντές μοι· εὖγε εὖγε.

  [4] Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.

  [5] ἀγαλλιάσθωσαν καὶ εὐφρανθήτωσαν ἐπὶ σοὶ πάντες οἱ ζητοῦντές σε, ὁ Θεός, καὶ λεγέτωσαν διαπαντός· μεγαλυνθήτω ὁ Κύριος, οἱ ἀγαπῶντες τὸ σωτήριόν σου.

  [5] Let all that seek thee exult and be glad in thee: and let those that love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

  [6] ἐγὼ δὲ πτωχός εἰμι καὶ πένης· ὁ Θεός, βοήθησόν μοι. βοηθός μου καὶ ῥύστης μου εἶ σύ· Κύριε, μὴ χρονίσῃς.

  [6] But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: thou art my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.

  Ψαλμός 70

  Psalm 70

  Τῷ Δαυΐδ· υἱῶν Ἰωναδὰβ καὶ τῶν πρώτων αἰχμαλωτισθέντων.

  By David, a Psalm sung by the sons of Jonadab, and the first that were taken captive.

  ΕΠΙ ΣΟΙ, Κύριε, ἤλπισα, μὴ καταισχυνθείην εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

  O Lord, I have hoped in thee: let me never be put to shame.

  [2] ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ὔρῦσαί με καὶ ἐξελοῦ με, κλῖνον πρός με τὸ οὖς σου καὶ σῶσόν με.

  [2] In thy righteousness deliver me and rescue me: incline thine ear to me, and save me.

  [3] γενοῦ μοι εἰς Θεὸν ὑπερασπιστὴν καὶ εἰς τόπον ὀχυρὸν τοῦ σῶσαί με, ὅτι στερέωμά μου καὶ καταφυγή μου εἶ σύ.

  [3] Be to me a protecting God, and a stro
ng hold to save me: for thou art my fortress and my refuge.

  [4] ὁ Θεός μου, ῥῦσαί με ἐκ χειρὸς ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ἐκ χειρὸς παρανομοῦντος καὶ ἀδικοῦντος·

  [4] Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the sinner, from the hand of the transgressor and unjust man.

  [5] ὅτι σὺ εἶ ἡ ὑπομονή μου, Κύριε· Κύριε, ἡ ἐλπίς μου ἐκ νεότητός μου,

  [5] For thou art my support, O Lord; O Lord, thou art my hope from my youth.

  [6] ἐπὶ σὲ ἐπεστηρίχθην ἀπὸ γαστρός, ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός μου σύ μου εἶ σκεπαστής· ἐν σοὶ ἡ ὕμνησίς μου διαπαντός.

  [6] On thee have I been stayed from the womb: from the belly of my mother thou art my protector: of thee is my praise continually.

  [7] ὡσεὶ τέρας ἐγενήθην τοῖς πολλοῖς, καὶ σὺ βοηθὸς κραταιός.

  [7] I am become as it were a wonder to many: but thou art my strong helper.

  [8] πληρωθήτω τὸ στόμα μου αἰνέσεως, ὅπως ὑμνήσω τὴν δόξαν σου, ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν τὴν μεγαλοπρέπειάν σου.

  [8] Let my mouth be filled with praise, that I may hymn thy glory, and thy majesty all the day.

  [9] μὴ ἀποῤῥίψῃς με εἰς καιρὸν γήρως, ἐν τῷ ἐκλείπειν τὴν ἰσχύν μου μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς με.

  [9] Cast me not off at the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.

  [10] ὅτι εἶπαν οἱ ἐχθροί μου ἐμοὶ καὶ οἱ φυλάσσοντες τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐβουλεύσαντο ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό

  [10] For mine enemies have spoken against me; and they that lay wait for my soul have taken counsel together,

  [11] λέγοντες· ὁ Θεὸς ἐγκατέλιπεν αὐτόν· καταδιώξατε καὶ καταλάβετε αὐτόν, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ ῥυόμενος.

  [11] saying, God has forsaken him: persecute ye and take him; for there is none to deliver him.

  [12] ὁ Θεός μου, μὴ μακρύνῃς ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ· ὁ Θεός μου, εἰς τὴν βοήθειάν μου πρόσχες.

  [12] O God, go not far from me, O my God, draw nigh to my help.

  [13] αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ἐκλιπέτωσαν οἱ ἐνδιαβάλλοντες τὴν ψυχήν μου, περιβαλλέσθωσαν αἰσχύνην καὶ ἐντροπὴν οἱ ζητοῦντες τὰ κακά μοι.

  [13] Let those that plot against my soul be ashamed and utterly fail: let those that seek my hurt be clothed with shame and dishonour.

  [14] ἐγὼ δὲ διαπαντὸς ἐλπιῶ ἐπὶ σὲ καὶ προσθήσω ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν αἴνεσίν σου.

  [14] But I will hope continually, and will praise thee more and more.

  [15] τὸ στόμα μου ἐξαγγελεῖ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου, ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν τὴν σωτηρίαν σου, ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνων γραμματείας.

  [15] My mouth shall declare thy righteousness openly, and thy salvation all the day; for I am not acquainted with the affairs of men.

  [16] εἰσελεύσομαι ἐν δυναστείᾳ Κυρίου· Κύριε, μνησθήσομαι τῆς δικαιοσύνης σοῦ μόνου.

  [16] I will go on in the might of the Lord: O Lord, I will make mention of thy righteousness only.

  [17] ὁ Θεός, ἃ ἐδίδαξάς με ἐκ νεότητός μου, καὶ μέχρι τοῦ νῦν ἀπαγγελῶ τὰ θαυμάσιά σου.

  [17] O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and until now will I declare thy wonders;

  [18] καὶ ἕως γήρως καὶ πρεσβείου, ὁ Θεός, μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς με, ἕως ἂν ἀπαγγελῶ τὸν βραχίονά σου τῇ γενεᾷ πάσῃ τῇ ἐπερχομένῃ,

  [18] even until I am old and advanced in years. O God, forsake me not; until I shall have declared thine arm to all the generation that is to come:

  [19] τὴν δυναστείαν σου καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου. ὁ Θεός, ἕως ὑψίστων ἃ ἐποίησας μεγαλεῖα· ὁ Θεός, τίς ὅμοιός σοι;

  [19] even thy power and thy righteousness, O God, up to the highest heavens, even the mighty works which thou has done: O God, who is like to thee?

  [20] ὅσας ἔδειξάς μοι θλίψεις πολλὰς καὶ κακάς, καὶ ἐπιστρέψας ἐζωοποίησάς με, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀβύσσων τῆς γῆς πάλιν ἀνήγαγές με.

  [20] What afflictions many and sore hast thou shewed me! yet thou didst turn and quicken me, and broughtest me again from the depths of the earth.

  [21] ἐπλεόνασας ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ τὴν μεγαλωσύνην σου καὶ ἐπιστρέψας παρεκάλεσάς με καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀβύσσων τῆς γῆς πάλιν ἀνήγαγές με.

  [21] Thou didst multiply thy righteousness, and didst turn and comfort me, and broughtest me again out of the depths of the earth.

  [22] καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν σκεύει ψαλμοῦ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου, ὁ Θεός· ψαλῶ σοι ἐν κιθάρᾳ, ὁ ἅγιος τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.

  [22] I will also therefore give thanks to thee, O God, because of thy truth, on an instrument of psalmody: I will sing psalms to thee on the harp, O Holy One of Israel.

  [23] ἀγαλλιάσονται τὰ χείλη μου, ὅταν ψάλω σοι, καὶ ἡ ψυχή μου, ἣν ἐλυτρώσω.

  [23] My lips shall rejoice when I sing to thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.

  [24] ἔτι δὲ καὶ ἡ γλῶσσά μου ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν μελετήσει τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου, ὅταν αἰσχυνθῶσι καὶ ἐντραπῶσιν οἱ ζητοῦντες τὰ κακά μοι.

  [24] Moreover also my tongue shall dwell all the day upon thy righteousness; when they shall be ashamed and confounded that seek my hurt.

  Ψαλμός 71

  Psalm 71

  Εἰς Σαλωμών.

  For Solomon.

  Ο ΘΕΟΣ, τὸ κρίμα σου τῷ βασιλεῖ δὸς καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου τῷ υἱῷ τοῦ βασιλέως

  O God, give thy judgment to the king, and thy righteousness to the king’s son;

  [2] κρίνειν τὸν λαόν σου ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ τοὺς πτωχούς σου ἐν κρίσει.

  [2] that he may judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.

  [3] ἀναλαβέτω τὰ ὄρη εἰρήνην τῷ λαῷ σου καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ δικαιοσύνην.

  [3] Let the mountains and the hills raise peace to thy people:

  [4] κρινεῖ τοὺς πτωχοὺς τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ σώσει τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν πενήτων καὶ ταπεινώσει συκοφάντην

  [4] he shall judge the poor of the people in righteousness, and save the children of the needy; and shall bring low the false accuser.

  [5] καὶ συμπαραμενεῖ τῷ ἡλίῳ καὶ πρὸ τῆς σελήνης γενεὰς γενεῶν.

  [5] And he shall continue as long as the sun, and before the moon for ever.

  [6] καταβήσεται ὡς ὑετὸς ἐπὶ πόκον καὶ ὡσεὶ σταγὼν ἡ στάζουσα ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.

  [6] He shall come down as rain upon
a fleece; and as drops falling upon the earth.

  [7] ἀνατελεῖ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ δικαιοσύνη καὶ πλῆθος εἰρήνης, ἕως οὗ ἀνταναιρεθῇ ἡ σελήνη.

  [7] In his days shall righteousness spring up; and abundance of peace till the moon be removed.

  [8] καὶ κατακυριεύσει ἀπὸ θαλάσσης ἕως θαλάσσης καὶ ἀπὸ ποταμῶν ἕως περάτων τῆς οἰκουμένης.

  [8] And he shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.

  [9] ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ προπεσοῦνται Αἰθίοπες, καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτοῦ χοῦν λείξουσι.

  [9] The Ethiopians shall fall down before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.

  [10] βασιλεῖς Θαρσὶς καὶ νῆσοι δῶρα προσοίσουσι, βασιλεῖς Ἀράβων καὶ Σαβᾶ δῶρα προσάξουσι.

  [10] The kings of Tharsis, and the isles, shall bring presents: the kings of the Arabians and Saba shall offer gifts.

  [11] καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν αὐτῷ πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς, πάντα τὰ ἔθνη δουλεύσουσιν αὐτῷ.

  [11] And all kings shall worship him; all the Gentiles shall serve him.

  [12] ὅτι ἐῤῥύσατο πτωχὸν ἐκ δυνάστου καὶ πένητα, ᾧ οὐχ ὑπῆρχε βοηθός.

  [12] For he has delivered the poor from the oppressor; and the needy who had no helper.

  [13] φείσεται πτωχοῦ καὶ πένητος καὶ ψυχὰς πενήτων σώσει.

  [13] He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall deliver the souls of the needy.

  [14] ἐκ τόκου καὶ ἐξ ἀδικίας λυτρώσεται τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔντιμον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν.

  [14] He shall redeem their souls from usury and injustice: and their name shall be precious before him.
