1
And David spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
Καὶ ἐλάλησε Δαυὶδ τῷ Κυρίῳ τοὺς λόγους τῆς ᾠδῆς ταύτης, ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐξείλετο αὐτὸν Κύριος ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς Σαούλ.
2
1
And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
Καὶ εἶπεν ᾠδή· Κύριε πέτρα μου, καὶ ὀχύρωμά μου, καὶ ἐξαιρούμενός με ἐμοί,
3
The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
ὁ Θεός μου, φύλαξ μου ἔσται μοι, πεποιθὼς ἔσομαι ἐπʼ αὐτῷ· ὑπερασπιστής μου, καὶ κέρας σωτηρίας μου, ἀντιλήπτωρ μου, καὶ καταφυγή μου σωτηρίας μου, ἐξ ἀδίκου σώσεις με.
4
I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
Αἰνετὸν ἐπικαλέσομαι Κύριον, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου σωθήσομαι.
5
When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;
Ὅτι περιέσχον με συντριμμοὶ θανάτου, χείμαῤῥοι ἀνομίας ἐθάμβησάν με.
6
The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me;
Ὠδῖνες θανάτου ἐκύκλωσάν με, προέφθασάν με σκληρότητες θανάτου.
7
In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
Ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαί με ἐπικαλέσομαι τὸν Κύριον, καὶ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν μου βοήσομαι, καὶ ἐπακούσεται ἐκ ναοῦ αὐτοῦ φωνῆς μου, καὶ ἡ κραυγή μου ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν αὐτοῦ.
8
Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
Καὶ ἐταράχθη καὶ ἐσείσθη ἡ γῆ, καὶ τὰ θεμέλια τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνεταράχθησαν καὶ ἐσπαράχθησαν, ὃτι ἐθυμώθη Κύριος αὐτοῖς.
9
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
Ἀνέβη καπνὸς ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πῦρ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ κατέδεται· ἄνθρακες ἐξεκαύθησαν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ.
10
He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
Καὶ ἔκλινεν οὐρανοὺς καὶ κατέβη, καὶ γνόφος ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.
11
And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
Καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν ἐπὶ τῷ χερουβὶν καὶ ἐπετάσθη, καὶ ὤφθη ἐπὶ πτερύγων ἀνέμου.
12
And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
Καὶ ἔθετο σκότος ἀποκρυφὴν αὐτοῦ· κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ ἡ σκηνὴ αὐτοῦ σκότος ὑδάτων, ἐπάχυνεν ἐν νεφέλαις ἀέρος.
13
Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
Ἀπὸ τοῦ φέγγους ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ἐξεκαύθησαν ἄνθρακες πυρός.
14
The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
Ἐβρόντησεν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ Κύριος, καὶ ὁ ὕψιστος ἔδωκε φωνὴν αὐτοῦ.
15
And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
Καὶ ἀπέστειλε βέλη, καὶ ἐσκόρπισεν αὐτούς· καὶ ἢστραψεν ἀστραπὴν, καὶ ἐξέστησεν αὐτούς.
16
And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
Καὶ ὤφθησαν ἀφέσεις θαλάσσης, καὶ ἀπεκαλύφθη θεμέλια τῆς οἰκουμένης ἐν τῇ ἐπιτιμήσει Κυρίου, ἀπὸ πνοῆς πνεύματος θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ.
17
He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
Ἀπέστειλεν ἐξ ὕξ ὕψους καὶ ἔλαβέ με, εἵλκυσέ με ἐξ ὑδάτων πολλῶν.
18
He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Ἐῤῥύσατό με ἐξ ἐχθρῶν μου ἰσχύος, ἐκ τῶν μισούντων με, ὅτι ἐκραταιώθησαν ὑπὲρ ἐμέ.
19
They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.
Προέφθασάν με ἡμέραι θλίψεώς μου· καὶ ἐγένετο Κύριος ἐπιστήριγμά μου;
20
He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
καὶ ἐξήγαγέ με εἰς πλατυσμὸν, καὶ ἐξείλετό με, ὅτι ηὐδόκησες ἐν ἐμοί.
21
The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
Καὶ ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι Κύριος κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου, καὶ κατὰ τὴν καθαριότητα τῶν χειρῶν μου ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι.
22
For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
Ὅτι ἐφύλαξα ὁδοὺς Κυρίου, καὶ οὐκ ἠσέβησα ἀπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ μου.
23
For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
Ὅτι πάντα τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ κατεναντίον μου καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἀπέστην ἀπʼ αὐτῶν.
24
I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.
Καὶ ἔσομαι ἄμωμος αὐτῷ, καὶ προφυλάξομαι ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας μου.
25
Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
Καὶ ἀποδώσει μοι Κύριος κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου, καὶ κατὰ τὴν καθαριότητα τῶν χειρῶν μου ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ.
26
With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.
Μετὰ ὁσίου ὁσιωθήσῃ, καὶ μετὰ ἀνδρὸς τελείου τελειωθήσῃ·
27
With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.
Καὶ μετὰ ἐκλεκτοῦ ἐκλεκτὸς ἔσῃ, καὶ μετὰ στρεβλοῦ στρεβλωθήσῃ.
28
And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
Καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν πτωχὸν σώσεις, καὶ ὀφθαλμοὺς ἐπὶ μετεώρων ταπεινώσεις.
29
For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and the Lord will lighten my darkness.
Ὅτι σὺ ὁ λύχνος μου Κύριε, καὶ Κύριος ἐκλάμψει μοι τὸ σκότος μου.
30
For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
Ὅτι ἐν σοὶ δραμοῦμαι μονόζωνος, καὶ ἐν τῷ Θεῷ μου ὑπερβήσομαι τεῖχος.
31
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
Ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ἄμωμος ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτοῦ· τὸ ῥῆμα Κυρίου κραταιὸν πεπυρωμένον· ὑπερασπιστής ἐστι πᾶσι τοῖς πεποιθόσιν ἐπʼ αὐτόν.
32
For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, save our God?
Τίς ἰσχυρὸς πλὴν Κυρίου; καὶ τίς κτίστης ἔσται πλὴν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν;
33
God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
Ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ὁ κραταιῶν με δυνάμει, καὶ ἐξετίναξεν ἄμωμον τὴν ὁδόν μου.
34
He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
Τιθεὶς τοὺς πόδας μου ὡς ἐλάφων, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ὕψη ἱστῶν με.
35
He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
Διδάσκων χεῖράς μου εἰς πόλεμον, καὶ κατάξας τόξον χαλκοῦν ἐν βραχίονί μου.
36
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
Καὶ ἔδωκάς μοι ὑπερασπισμὸν σωτηρίας μου, καὶ ἡ ὑπακοή σου ἐπλήθυνέ με εἰς πλατυσμὸν εἰς τὰ διαβήματά μου ὑποκάτω μου,
37
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
καὶ οὐκ ἐσαλεύθησαν τὰ σκέλη μου.
38
I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
Διώξω ἐχθρούς μου, καὶ ἀφανιῶ αὐτοὺς, καὶ οὐκ ἀναστρέψω ἕως ἂν συντελέσω αὐτούς.
39
And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.
Καὶ θλάσω αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἀναστήσονται, καὶ πεσοῦνται ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας μου.
40
For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
Καὶ ἐνισχύσεις με δυνάμει εἰς πόλεμον, κάμψεις τοὺς ἐπιστανομένους μοι ὑποκάτω μου.
41
Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
Καὶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου ἔδωκάς μοι νῶτον, τοὺς μισοῦντάς με, καὶ ἐθανάτωσας αὐτούς.
42
They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.
Βοήσονται, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι βοηθὸς, πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ οὐκ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῶν.
43
Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
Καὶ ἐλέανα αὐτοὺς ὡς χοῦν γῆς, ὡς πηλὸν ἐξόδων ἐλέπτυνα αὐτούς.
44
Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
Καὶ ῥύσῃ με ἐκ μάχης λαῶν, φυλάξεις με εἰς κεφαλὴν ἐθνῶν· λαὸς ὃν οὐκ ἔγνω ἐδούλευσάν μοι.
45
Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
Υἱοὶ ἀλλότριοι ἐψεύσαντό μοι, εἰς ἀκοὴν ὠτίου ἤκουσάν μου.
46
Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
Υἱοὶ ἀλλότριοι ἀποῤῥιφήσονται, καὶ σφαλοῦσιν ἐκ τῶν συγκλεισμῶν αὐτῶν.
47
The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
Ζῇ Κύριος, καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ φύλαξ μου, καὶ ὑψωθήσεται ὁ Θεός μου ὁ φύλαξ τῆς σωτηρίας μου.
48
It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
Ἰσχυρὸς Κύριος ὁ διδοὺς ἐκδικήσεις ἐμοὶ, παιδεύων λαοὺς ὑποκάτω μου,
49
And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
καὶ ἐξάγων με ἐξ ἐχθρῶν μου· καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐπεγειρομένων μοι ὑψώσεις με, ἐξ ἀνδρὸς ἀδικημάτων ῥύσῃ με.
50
Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
Διὰ τοῦτο ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι Κύριε ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ψαλῶ.
51
He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
Μεγαλύνων τὰς σωτηρίας βασιλέως αὐτοῦ, καὶ ποιῶν ἔλεος τῷ χριστῷ αὐτοῦ τῷ Δαυὶδ, καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος. Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι Δαυὶδ οἱ ἔσχατοι·
