| [1]αἶνος ᾠδῆς τῷ δαυιδ ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν βοηθείᾳ τοῦ ὑψίστου ἐν σκέπῃ τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ αὐλισθήσεται |
[1]A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, a habitation Thou -- Thou hast been, To us -- in generation and generation, |
| [2]ἐρεῖ τῷ κυρίῳ ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου εἶ καὶ καταφυγή μου ὁ θεός μου ἐλπιῶ ἐπ αὐτόν |
[2]Before mountains were brought forth, And Thou dost form the earth and the world, Even from age unto age Thou [art] God. |
| [3]ὅτι αὐτὸς ῥύσεταί με ἐκ παγίδος θηρευτῶν καὶ ἀπὸ λόγου ταραχώδους |
[3]Thou turnest man unto a bruised thing, And sayest, Turn back, ye sons of men. |
| [4]ἐν τοῖς μεταφρένοις αὐτοῦ ἐπισκιάσει σοι καὶ ὑπὸ τὰς πτέρυγας αὐτοῦ ἐλπιεῖς ὅπλῳ κυκλώσει σε ἡ ἀλήθεια αὐτοῦ |
[4]For a thousand years in Thine eyes [are] as yesterday, For it passeth on, yea, a watch by night. |
| [5]οὐ φοβηθήσῃ ἀπὸ φόβου νυκτερινοῦ ἀπὸ βέλους πετομένου ἡμέρας |
[5]Thou hast inundated them, they are asleep, In the morning as grass he changeth. |
| [6]ἀπὸ πράγματος διαπορευομένου ἐν σκότει ἀπὸ συμπτώματος καὶ δαιμονίου μεσημβρινοῦ |
[6]In the morning it flourisheth, and hath changed, At evening it is cut down, and hath withered. |
| [7]πεσεῖται ἐκ τοῦ κλίτους σου χιλιὰς καὶ μυριὰς ἐκ δεξιῶν σου πρὸς σὲ δὲ οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ |
[7]For we were consumed in Thine anger, And in Thy fury we have been troubled. |
| [8]πλὴν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου κατανοήσεις καὶ ἀνταπόδοσιν ἁμαρτωλῶν ὄψῃ |
[8]Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, Our hidden things at the light of Thy face, |
| [9]ὅτι σύ κύριε ἡ ἐλπίς μου τὸν ὕψιστον ἔθου καταφυγήν σου |
[9]For all our days pined away in Thy wrath, We consumed our years as a meditation. |
| [10]οὐ προσελεύσεται πρὸς σὲ κακά καὶ μάστιξ οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ τῷ σκηνώματί σου |
[10]Days of our years, in them [are] seventy years, And if, by reason of might, eighty years, Yet [is] their enlargement labour and vanity, For it hath been cut off hastily, and we fly away. |
| [11]ὅτι τοῖς ἀγγέλοις αὐτοῦ ἐντελεῖται περὶ σοῦ τοῦ διαφυλάξαι σε ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς σου |
[11]Who knoweth the power of Thine anger? And according to Thy fear -- Thy wrath? |
| [12]ἐπὶ χειρῶν ἀροῦσίν σε μήποτε προσκόψῃς πρὸς λίθον τὸν πόδα σου |
[12]To number our days aright let [us] know, And we bring the heart to wisdom. |
| [13]ἐπ ἀσπίδα καὶ βασιλίσκον ἐπιβήσῃ καὶ καταπατήσεις λέοντα καὶ δράκοντα |
[13]Turn back, O Jehovah, till when? And repent concerning Thy servants. |
| [14]ὅτι ἐπ ἐμὲ ἤλπισεν καὶ ῥύσομαι αὐτόν σκεπάσω αὐτόν ὅτι ἔγνω τὸ ὄνομά μου |
[14]Satisfy us at morn [with] Thy kindness, And we sing and rejoice all our days. |
| [15]ἐπικαλέσεταί με καὶ εἰσακούσομαι αὐτοῦ μετ αὐτοῦ εἰμι ἐν θλίψει καὶ ἐξελοῦμαι καὶ δοξάσω αὐτόν |
[15]Cause us to rejoice according to the days Wherein Thou hast afflicted us, The years we have seen evil. |
| [16]μακρότητα ἡμερῶν ἐμπλήσω αὐτὸν καὶ δείξω αὐτῷ τὸ σωτήριόν μου |
[16]Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, And Thine honour on their sons. |
| 17[No verse] |
[17]And let the pleasantness of Jehovah our God be upon us, And the work of our hands establish on us, Yea, the work of our hands establish it! |
