[31] καὶ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ συνεπόδισεν.
[31] then the indignation of God rose up against them, and slew the fattest of them, and overthrew the choice men of Israel.
[32] ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις ἥμαρτον ἔτι καὶ οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν ἐν τοῖς θαυμασίοις αὐτοῦ,
[32] In the midst of all this they sinned yet more, and believed not his miracles.
[33] καὶ ἐξέλιπον ἐν ματαιότητι αἱ ἡμέραι αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἔτη αὐτῶν μετὰ σπουδῆς.
[33] And their days were consumed in vanity, and their years with anxiety.
[34] ὅταν ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς, τότε ἐξεζήτουν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέστρεφον καὶ ὤρθριζον πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν
[34] When he slew them, they sought him: and they returned and called betimes upon God.
[35] καὶ ἐμνήσθησαν ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς βοηθὸς αὐτῶν ἐστι καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ὁ Ὕψιστος λυτρωτὴς αὐτῶν ἐστι.
[35] And they remembered that God was their helper, and the most high God was their redeemer.
[36] καὶ ἠγάπησαν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν καὶ τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτῶν ἐψεύσαντο αὐτῷ,
[36] Yet they loved him only with their mouth, and lied to him with their tongue.
[37] ἡ δὲ καρδία αὐτῶν οὐκ εὐθεῖα μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, οὐδὲ ἐπιστώθησαν ἐν τῇ διαθήκῃ αὐτοῦ.
[37] For their heart was not right with him, neither were they steadfast in his covenant.
[38] αὐτὸς δέ ἐστιν οἰκτίρμων καὶ ἱλάσκεται ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ διαφθερεῖ καὶ πληθυνεῖ τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι τὸν θυμὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐχὶ ἐκκαύσει πᾶσαν τὴν ὀργὴν αὐτοῦ.
[38] But he is compassionate, and will forgive their sins, and will not destroy them: yea, he will frequently turn away his wrath, and will not kindle all his anger.
[39] καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὅτι σάρξ εἰσι, πνεῦμα πορευόμενον καὶ οὐκ ἐπιστρέφον.
[39] And he remembered that they are flesh; a wind that passes away, and returns not.
[40] ποσάκις παρεπίκραναν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, παρώργισαν αὐτὸν ἐν γῇ ἀνύδρῳ;
[40] How often did they provoke him in the wilderness, and anger him in a dry land!
[41] καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν καὶ ἐπείρασαν τὸν Θεὸν καὶ τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ παρώξυναν.
[41] Yea, they turned back, and tempted God, and provoked the Holy One of Israel.

[42] They remembered not his hand, the day in which he delivered them from the hand of the oppressor.
[43] ὡς ἔθετο ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ τὰ σημεῖα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τέρατα αὐτοῦ ἐν πεδίῳ Τάνεως.
[43] How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Tanes:
[44] καὶ μετέστρεψεν εἰς αἷμα τοὺς ποταμοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ὀμβρήματα αὐτῶν, ὅπως μὴ πίωσιν·
[44] and had changed their rivers into blood; and their streams, that they should not drink.
[45] ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς αὐτοὺς κυνόμυιαν, καὶ κατέφαγεν αὐτούς, καὶ βάτραχον, καὶ διέφθειρεν αὐτούς·
[45] He sent against them the dog-fly, and it devoured them; and the frog, and it spoiled them.
[46] καὶ ἔδωκε τῇ ἐρυσίβῃ τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς πόνους αὐτῶν τῇ ἀκρίδι·
[46] And he gave their fruit to the canker worm, and their labours to the locust.
[47] ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν χαλάζῃ τὴν ἄμπελον αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς συκαμίνους αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ πάχνῃ·
[47] He killed their vines with hail, and their sycamores with frost.
[48] καὶ παρέδωκεν εἰς χάλαζαν τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν ὕπαρξιν αὐτῶν τῷ πυρί·
[48] And he gave up their cattle to hail, and their substance to the fire.
[49] ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς αὐτοὺς ὀργὴν θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ, θυμὸν καὶ ὀργὴν καὶ θλῖψιν, ἀποστολὴν δι᾿ ἀγγέλων πονηρῶν.
[49] He sent out against them the fury of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and affliction, a message by evil angels.
[50] ὡδοποίησε τρίβον τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσατο ἀπὸ θανάτου τῶν ψυχῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν εἰς θάνατον συνέκλεισε
[50] He made a way for his wrath; he spared not their souls from death, but consigned their cattle to death;
[51] καὶ ἐπάταξε πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ, ἀπαρχὴν παντὸς πόνου αὐτῶν ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασι Χάμ,
[51] and smote every first-born in the land of Egypt; the first-fruits of their labours in the tents of Cham.
[52] καὶ ἀπῇρεν ὡς πρόβατα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ὡσεὶ ποίμνιον ἐν ἐρήμῳ
[52] And he removed his people like sheep; he led them as a flock in the wilderness.
[53] καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτοὺς ἐπ᾿ ἐλπίδι, καὶ οὐκ ἐδειλίασαν, καὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν ἐκάλυψε θάλασσα.
[53] And he guided them with hope, and they feared not: but the sea covered their enemies.
[54] καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς ὄρος ἁγιάσματος αὐτοῦ, ὄρος τοῦτο, ὃ ἐκτήσατο ἡ δεξιὰ αὐτοῦ,
[54] And he brought them in to the mountain of his sanctuary, this mountain which his right hand had purchased.
[55] καὶ ἐξέβαλεν ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν ἔθνη καὶ ἐκληροδότησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν σχοινίῳ κληροδοσίας καὶ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν τοῖς σκηνώμασιν αὐτῶν τὰς φυλὰς τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
[55] And he cast out the nations from before them, and made them to inherit by a line of inheritance, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
[56] καὶ ἐπείρασαν καὶ παρεπίκραναν τὸν Θεὸν τὸν Ὕψιστον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐφυλάξαντο
[56] Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies.
[57] καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν καὶ ἠθέτησαν, καθὼς καὶ οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν, μετεστράφησαν εἰς τόξον στρεβλὸν
[57] And they turned back, and broke covenant, even as also their fathers: they became like a crooked bow.
[58] καὶ παρώργισαν αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς βουνοῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν τοῖς γλυπτοῖς αὐτῶν παρεζήλωσαν αὐτόν.
[58] And they provoked him w
ith their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.

[60] And he rejected the tabernacle of Selom, his tent where he dwelt among men.
[61] καὶ παρέδωκεν εἰς αἰχμαλωσίαν τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν καλλονὴν αὐτῶν εἰς χεῖρα ἐχθρῶν
[61] And he gave their strength into captivity, and their beauty into the enemy’s hand.
[62] καὶ συνέκλεισεν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ ὑπερεῖδε.
[62] And he gave his people to the sword; and disdained his inheritance.
[63] τοὺς νεανίσκους αὐτῶν κατέφαγε πῦρ, καὶ αἱ παρθένοι αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐπενθήθησαν·
[63] Fire devoured their young men; and their virgins mourned not.
[64] οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῶν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ ἔπεσον, καὶ αἱ χῆραι αὐτῶν οὐ κλαυθήσονται.
[64] Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows shall not be wept for.
[65] καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ὡς ὁ ὑπνῶν Κύριος, ὡς δυνατὸς κεκραιπαληκὼς ἐξ οἴνου,
[65] So the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and as a mighty man who has been heated with wine.
[66] καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, ὄνειδος αἰώνιον ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς.
[66] And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he brought on them a perpetual reproach.
[67] καὶ ἀπώσατο τὸ σκήνωμα Ἰωσὴφ καὶ τὴν φυλὴν Ἐφραὶμ οὐκ ἐξελέξατο·
[67] And he rejected the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim;
[68] καὶ ἐξελέξατο τὴν φυλὴν Ἰούδα, τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σιών, ὃ ἠγάπησε,
[68] but chose the tribe of Juda, the mount Sion which he loved.
[69] καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ὡς μονοκέρωτος τὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.
[69] And he built his sanctuary as the place of unicorns; he founded it for ever on the earth.
[70] καὶ ἐξελέξατο Δαυΐδ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐκ τῶν ποιμνίων τῶν προβάτων,
[70] He chose David also his servant, and took him up from the flocks of sheep.
[71] ἐξόπισθεν τῶν λοχευομένων ἔλαβεν αὐτόν ποιμαίνειν Ἰακὼβ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ καὶ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ
[71] He took him from following the ewes great with young, to be the shepherd of Jacob his servant, and Israel his inheritance.
[72] καὶ ἐποίμανεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἀκακίᾳ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῇ συνέσει τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ ὡδήγησεν αὐτούς.
[72] So he tended them in the innocency of his heart; and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.
Ψαλμός 78
Psalm 78
Ψαλμὸς τῷ Ἀσάφ.
A Psalm for Asaph.
Ο ΘΕΟΣ, ἤλθοσαν ἔθνη εἰς τὴν κληρονομίαν σου, ἐμίαναν τὸν ναὸν τὸν ἅγιόν σου, ἔθεντο Ἱερουσαλὴμ ὡς ὀπωροφυλάκιον.
O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; they have polluted thy holy temple; they have made Jerusalem a storehouse of fruits.
[2] ἔθεντο τὰ θνησιμαῖα τῶν δούλων σου βρώματα τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, τὰς σάρκας τῶν ὁσίων σου τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς·
[2] They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be food for the birds of the sky, the flesh of thy holy ones for the wild beasts of the earth.
[3] ἐξέχεαν τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ ὕδωρ κύκλῳ Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ θάπτων.
[3] They have shed their blood as water, round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them.
[4] ἐγενήθημεν ὄνειδος τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν, μυκτηρισμὸς καὶ χλευασμὸς τοῖς κύκλῳ ἡμῶν.
[4] We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
[5] ἕως πότε, Κύριε, ὀργισθήσῃ εἰς τέλος, ἐκκαυθήσεται ὡς πῦρ ὁ ζῆλός σου;
[5] How long, O Lord? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
[6] ἔκχεον τὴν ὀργήν σου ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ μὴ γινώσκοντά σε καὶ ἐπὶ βασιλείας, αἳ τὸ ὄνομά σου οὐκ ἐπεκαλέσαντο,
[6] Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms which have not called upon thy name.
[7] ὅτι κατέφαγον τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ ἠρήμωσαν.
[7] For they have devoured Jacob, and laid his place waste.
[8] μὴ μνησθῇς ἡμῶν ἀνομιῶν ἀρχαίων· ταχὺ προκαταλαβέτωσαν ἡμᾶς οἱ οἰκτιρμοί σου, Κύριε, ὅτι ἐπτωχεύσαμεν σφόδρα.
[8] Remember not our old transgressions; let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us; for we are greatly impoverished.
[9] βοήθησον ἡμῖν, ὁ Θεός, ὁ σωτὴρ ἡμῶν· ἕνεκεν τῆς δόξης τοῦ ὀνόματός σου, Κύριε, ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς καὶ ἱλάσθητι ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ἡμῶν ἕνεκα τοῦ ὀνόματός σου,
[9] Help us, O God our Saviour; for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us; and be merciful to our sins, for thy name’s sake.
[10] μή ποτε εἴπωσι τὰ ἔθνη· ποῦ ἔστιν ὁ Θεὸς αὐτῶν; καὶ γνωσθήτω ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ἡμῶν ἡ ἐκδίκησις τοῦ αἵματος τῶν δούλων σου τοῦ ἐκκεχυμένου.
[10] Lets haply they should say among the heathen, Where is their God? and let the avenging of thy servant’s blood that has been shed be known among the heathen before our eyes.
[11] εἰσελθέτω ἐνώπιόν σου ὁ στεναγμὸς τῶν πεπεδημένων, κατὰ τὴν μεγαλωσύνην τοῦ βραχίονός σου περιποίησαι τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν τεθανατωμένων.
[11] Let the groaning of the prisoners come in before thee; according to the greatness of thine arm preserve the sons of the slain ones.
[12] ἀπόδος τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν ἑπταπλασίονα εἰς τὸν κόλπον αὐτῶν τὸν ὀνειδισμὸν αὐτῶν, ὃν ὠνείδισάν σε, Κύριε.
[12] Repay to our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, with which they have reproached thee, O Lord.
[13] ἡμεῖς δὲ λαός σου καὶ πρόβατα νομῆς σου ἀνθομολογησόμεθά σοι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν ἐξαγγελο�
��μεν τὴν αἴνεσίν σου.
[13] For we are thy people and the sheep of thy pasture; we will give thee thanks for ever; we will declare thy praise throughout all generations.

Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀλλοιωθησομένων· μαρτύριον τῷ Ἀσάφ, ψαλμὸς ὑπὲρ τοῦ Ἀσσυρίου.
For the end, for alternate strains, a testimony for Asaph, a Psalm concerning the Assyrian.
[2] Ο ΠΟΙΜΑΙΝΩΝ τὸν Ἰσραήλ, πρόσχες, ὁ ὁδηγῶν ὡσεὶ πρόβατα τὸν Ἰωσήφ. ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τῶν Χερουβίμ, ἐμφάνηθι.
[2] Attend, O Shepherd of Israel, who guidest Joseph like a flock; thou who sittest upon the cherubs, manifest thyself;
[3] ἐναντίον Ἐφραὶμ καὶ Βενιαμὶν καὶ Μανασσῆ ἐξέγειρον τὴν δυναστείαν σου καὶ ἐλθὲ εἰς τὸ σῶσαι ἡμᾶς.
[3] before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasse, stir up thy power, and come to deliver us.
[4] ὁ Θεός, ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ σωθησόμεθα.
[4] Turn us, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be delivered.
[5] Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων, ἕως πότε ὀργίζῃ ἐπὶ τὴν προσευχὴν τῶν δούλων σου;
[5] O Lord God of hosts, how long art thou angry with the prayer of thy servant?
[6] ψωμιεῖς ἡμᾶς ἄρτον δακρύων; καὶ ποτιεῖς ἡμᾶς ἐν δάκρυσιν ἐν μέτρῳ;
[6] Thou wilt feed us with bread of tears; and wilt cause us to drink tears by measure.
[7] ἔθου ἡμᾶς εἰς ἀντιλογίαν τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν, καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ ἡμῶν ἐμυκτήρισαν ἡμᾶς.
[7] Thou has made us a strife to our neighbours; and our enemies have mocked at us.
[8] Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων, ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπίφανον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου, καὶ σωθησόμεθα. (διάψαλμα).
